- WWE officials have recently been discussing bringing back some credible veterans to help build some of the newer Superstars. However, one source doesn’t expect this to happen on a large scale after the returns of Trevor Murdoch and Snitsky were recently denied.

It’s also said that Vince has shown frustration as of late with the WWE youth movement but Triple H and others are keeping him optimistic.
I'd definitley do all I could to get Jericho back, try and see if Nash is around to do something and then actually commit to pushing one or two guys instead of all the stop start pushes we seem to get.

If Vince is getting pissed cause of buyrates then that is his own fault not the youth movement. If it is because they aren't getting over as much or something then it's part because they need to stay committed to it. Wade was looking like the biggest heel in wrestling at one point and then it came to a fast stop.

LOL...what effort has Vince made to get any of these kids over. They gave Austin Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels to work with. Rock worked with Austin. Cena was built up by facing Lesnar, Undertaker, Angle, Jericho etc. When you have kids fighting kids, nobody's gonna fucking care who wins. Who is he displeased with?

Kofi or Ziggler? They've been facing each other every week for a year.
Alex Riley? They've only given him a month to get over so far.
Gabriel/Slater? You haven't made them matter at all.
New Nexus? They never had a chance.
Wade Barrett? He's great, the crowd hates him, give him an opponent they'll care about.

This is what I feared when they booked Taker/HHH for Wrestlemania. They could have brought both guys back a little earlier and put them into matches against guys that could use the boost. If you recognize the need for an influx of talent, you need to give the talent a chance to get over. I don't care what anybody says; it's pretty fucking hard to get over by yourself without the brass' cooperation.

Not only that like I said it's not just giving them the chance to get over but giving them to chance to stay over. If you go from feuding with the biggest star in John Cena like Barrett did to just feuding with Zeke a guy who isn't over then what do you expect. They are being too lazy in how they push these guys.

Yeah i was pissed how Wade Barrett went from being a top heel and main eventing against Cena to pretty much just a waste of space on SD's roster. I think if he was used properly he could be like a true top heel in WWE simmilar to Triple H when he was a heel or something.

And Zack Ryder, he's over with the fans like crazy and he's wicked good in the ring if he was actually used in a storyline or something on televison that'd be awesome they could make so much money off the guy. He's already over with the fans imagine if he was on Raw a weekly basis.

Spot on. Don't know how much more can be said.

WWE gives up too quick on their wrestlers, I mean soon Del Rio will be jobbing to Kofi Kingston (owait). Give them time, the mic and book them in interesting angles. It's amazing how CM Punk got so over the past month, can't they put that dedication in with a couple more wresters?
