Like the only two top-name talents that Laurinitis managed to scrape together was fucking Daniel Bryan and CM Punk, and only by virtue of them being too fucking good for the Indies?

I mean for fucks sake, look at what Johnny Ace did from 2004 to 2012! How many fucking dreadful talents and overly sexualized women did he bring in?

Meanwhile, JR's tenure: Mick Foley, Steve Austin, The Rock, John Cena, Batista, Chris Jericho, yada yada yada. All became main eventers under JR's watch and influence on Vince.

(I know Cena and Batista came later after JR stepped down but the point was JR pushed for them to be given a spot on the roster)

Nikki Bella improved greatly and even changed her entire physique to take more bumps FOH if you think they were held back,

When did that happen? 2013. When did Laurinaitis leave? 2012.

I guarantee Melina, Bellas, AJ, Gail Kim, Maryse, Eve Torres, Alicia Fox (maybe, but she fucking sucked ass), Layla, and Kaitlyn may all have had better careers.

And by "better careers" I mean much fucking better than what most of them got, which was relegated to a silly ass Diva's championship and the piss-break matches.
