So I'm guessing they'll have Goldberg rip through Ziggler in just a couple minutes, maybe even seconds......This s**t is getting old.

Part time Brock, Goldberg and Trish Stratus all have matches, meanwhile not a single tag team championship match and plenty of good wrestlers who won't be working the 2nd biggest PPV on the WWE calendar.

And did you notice how Trish didn't tag in last night? It's so ridiculous.

But this what happens when you dont have home grown stars. Its early 90s all over again. AE could get away with having xpac vs Dlo Brown on their WM card, bc they had so many other popular guys that will put asses in the seats. On top of that, now its a lot about sponsors too. Their big 4 ppv events need to have big star power and big sponsors so they can make a lot of money. Sponsors are gonna expect a lot of publicity if they have to pay more to be part of a SS or RR.
Its turned into too much of a business and they think they can rival real sports when thats never gonna happen. They lost track of who their audience is.

Yep, what a joke they have made of the tag team titles. Why even have them if they won't include them on the big shows.

This is what happens when you don't build new stars before your current stars leave and pay attention to what fans want. Not saying "hey push everyone the fans love and put em over every week" but they can use these past stars to help build new stars.
Had they spent less time trying to get Roman over as a face... had they not had everybody lose to Brock...had they tried to force guys into heel/face roles they should not have been in...had they realized Corbin is getting go away heat not real heel heat sooner etc. Had they realized Jericho/Owens were the hottest thing going leading into WM33 and did more with their story and match importance instead of putting them on 2nd for the US title and feeding us a 5 minute match between Goldberg and Lesnar as Co main event.

They fed Ruby to Ronda too. A shame how Ruby has been booked. She can work and talk. Hope she gets treated better when she returns from injury.

This is true, sometimes she is really hard to look at.

They definitely overdid it on the part timers since Rock's return but Trish v Flair should be good.
