Christian given the title after Edge retired, if he was to be given a title reign it should've been in 05 if anything.

DX midget court

Bret Hart screw job

Orton no selling Harley Race's punch.

Making Angle look racist to make Cena more likable against him.
 
1. Killing the Nexus angle the way that they did.

2. Badass decay (n): When a once fearsome character is turned into an easily beatable opponent. see example: Kane.

3. Too many face/heel flips with the same characters. What if John Cena turns heel? What if the Miz turns face? To name a couple of different ones.

4. Speaking of Cena...you already know where I'm headed with this.

5. Eliminating most of the in ring moveset. When's the last time you saw a piledriver? A decent hurricanrana? A sitout powerbomb? Just because a few guys don't know how to take a bump, they shouldn't have torn the wrestling move handbook down to a couple pages.

1. The Chris Benoit situation (sorry...had to go there and nobody had yet)
2. Spirit Squad
3. "Juniors Division"
4. King Booker and the Sharmell/Angle stalking/bestiality storyline.
5. Sheamus. Just...Sheamus.

HONORABLE MENTION: Not ever giving Jo-Mo a run with the main title(s).

Don't see how WWE could've handled the Benoit situation any better. He only damn near killed the business and shouldn't be recognized because he was good at his job. Some people would think Hitler was a good politician if it just showed his tracfk record.

Because it was completely WWE's fault that he had no personality, was limited in the ring after all his flashy moves and he let his girlfriend control his career?

1. The Nexus (Had so much potential.)
2. Daniel Bryan losing in 18 seconds (Was the best but yet the worst thing to happen to him. If it wasn't for the crowd reacting the way they did, he'd probably be buried. All over a stupid record.)
3. Benoit tragedy (Made the company wary and put bad media attention on them. It made the Wellness Policy more strict as well.)
4. Vince limousine explosion (Idea was stupid from the start and was a fail due to the Benoit situation.)
5. Christian losing the title after 2 days (Well...what can I say. Still BS to me til this day.)

How is that really a bad thing? I agree with the rest, but that stood out to me.

Yeah that really isn't a bad thing. Don't know why I put that. It was just one of the things that came along due to the situation.

:lmao a Sheamus mark talking about someone being limited in the ring.
