6 moths of the WWE network and I have a question.

Why the hell are Cesaro/Dolph Ziggler not in the main title scene or the face of the company? Ziggler may not quite be the next HBK but with the right push/development he seems like an obvious one.

And Cersaro I saw VInce bury him on the SCSA podcast but he seems massively over with the fans.

Dolph is like a decade deep, and although I have only seen the past 20 months of his work, seems like he's nearly paseed his peak.

Cesaro though, I'm not too sure. I could see him as a main event but maybe Vince doesn't? Maybe there's other backstage reasons? I'm not sure.

Hey speaking of Cesaro...

So he came back from injury quite a while ago with his shoulder taped up and all.
But hrs been back for a while, and still rockin the tape.

What's up with that? Is it just part of his appearance now or does he actually still need it? If so, that could be a reason why?

He is using kinesiology tape. A lot of athletes use this during games/practice to help ensure clean movements and reduce risk of re-injury.

Yeah I know about DZ but if he had been booked right he could perhaps have been where HBK was in 1995 or so.

At least better than where he is now.

Cesaro should be one of the top guys, he's an amazing talent.

But instead, he's working the midcard, which isn't too bad, I guess, but still, he deserves better.

Vince sees Dolph as a geek. Always have, always will. Once Vince develops a opinion on you it will be very hard to change it.

Cesaro is a foreigner who doesn't have English as his first language. No main event status for him outside of the odd title match or RAW main event. He has his purpose and is incredibly valued by the company and McMahon. But they don't see a star in him outside of the European countries. And main eventers for Vince need to have "world wide appeal". Aka be American

Sadly that's how McMahon operates

I'm actually surprised more WWE performers don't use the stuff...

Hell...I like the idea of someone using it as part of there regular ring attire.

And I agree...Cesaro & Ziggler are both great performers...but...
unfortunately we don't get to decide who gets the top spots.

WWE have givin Dolph many opportunities to be a too star...even had him defeat Cena in the main event of a PPV...he just doesn't run with the ball.
