If there's one thing you could change about WWE's product right now what would it be?

[seX-Power]

Still, I prefer the loaded up cards than going back to the last formula in which supposedly the midcard was more pushed and we would get things like tag matches instead of World Title defenses or Kane vs Kane or Lashley vs Simon Dean.

Thing is, we would still get loaded up cards 4 times a year, and the fact that there would only be that many would make the big 4 PPVs special again.

I'd have Punk be the 1st member of the Suck My Dick club on live tv. But it doesn't make me gay cause it humiliates him. I wont enjoy it, just enjoying the fact that he's being humilated. :shifty:

Id get the gore and action back in along with cena getting a heel run.

 

[He who knows more than Nation]

Fire the entire creative staff and hire a booking team of wrestling people with some old school seasoned vets and maybe a few younger, recently retired guys like Lance Storm who is in touch with the new wave of wrestling. I'd do this to change the company's fundamental thinking from "entertainment" and take it back to wrestling. Doing this would fix 90% of the complaints people have with the E.

Complaints WE have about WWE, and tbh, nothing would ever be good enough for the IWC

Everything!
/end thread
Hahaha.

Realistically though, I would get rid of the whole PG rating.

 

[chessarmy]

What would I do? Thats easy...

Shut down ECW so those guys can work on shows people actually watch, shows the WWE creative team cares about, RAW and Smackdown!

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

1. Less PPV's. It's $50 to buy now, I think. Instead of PPV's every month, maybe a 3 Hour Sunday Show on NBC, to build up feuds instead of ending them. More people would watch because it's on a Sunday, on free TV and on NBC. They could get more through advertising as well. It should keep the feuds running until the next PPV, or make it look better. just keep the 4-6 huge PPV's, of course.

2. Heat and Velocity back, please. I personally loved seeing the lower card guys actually wrestle, and it did something with the guys who couldn't make it to the main show.

3. Move Smackdown to another day, not on Friday. More people should watch it that way.

4. More brand separation. Make it seem like a legit feud between Smackdown and Raw is happening, with one trying to outdo the other all year and have it all end at Survivor Series.

5. Less gimmicks, more characters.

That's probably the best answer in the thread. It's so repetitive now its tough to watch. The WWE is trying some new things, but i don't think they are getting the job done.

Originally i saw this thread, and thought really there is no one answer solution imo. THere is no quick fix cause there is so many holes. There might not even be anything the wwe can do at the moment, but hey, If i get to pick one things, I am going to bring back more detailed storylines.

That's right, I want some crazy russo storylines. Well, maybe not that far, but i want to be looking forward to the next Raw, and the next one. I want some storylines i can follow on a weekly basis, that really gets my interest going. They don't have the rock/austin type characters currently, so you need the storylines to interest the viewer. I think if the wwe can come up with better storylines, it will benefit them by having more rounded characters they can use better. Don't be afraid to turn a wrestlers heel/face. It seems like there hasn't been much in the way of heel/face turns in the past 3 years. Again with Storylines, i want the TV show to build up to the big match up, TV or PPV. Also hopefully with better storylines you can bring some value back to the belts.

 

[noumenon]

Yeah, remember that..."Damn I can't wait till RAW next week!"
Now it's more like "Oh, it's Monday... RAW's on...guess I'll watch."

I agree, badly, it only seems that WWE does this detailed storylines now for the main events for Wrestlemania, and that if you decide to add that soap opera they did for Smackdown, because not since HHH vs Orton we have had that type of storyline

Get rid of the brand split. There isn't enough talent.

 

[VivaLaRaza]

Form a talent exchange with Ring Of Honor or Japan. Who doesn't want to see Jack Evans in an Elimination Chamber match? Also, a couple of dream matches would be able to happen. Punk vs KENTA/Akiyama/Kawada, Taker vs Kobashi, Aries vs Jericho/Morrison/Rey. Just sayin'.

For years I've wanted to see Evans in either TNA or the E.

Nobody is going to agree with me, everybody will say I'm "enabling a monster" but even though I would be tempted to change the product itself in various ways, I'm gonna have to say I'd probably allow Chris Benoit to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame.

^^^

I'd say go beyond that and stop acting like the guy didn't exist.

I don't.
