WWE History: Change or Keep

[Phenomenal1]

Keep: It had to be done. The fans just kept cheering him as a heel no matter what he did.

CM Punk debuting as a face

 

[PHX]

Keep: His debut was special with the reaction he got and such and his heel turn he made was great and it probably wouldn't have happened if he debuted heel probably.

HHH led DX

 

[Phenomenal1]

Keep: No doubt keep this. It was the breaking in of a tag team and rebreaking in of a kid that nobody gave a fuck about before he left for WCW.

Trish turning heel at Mania 20

 

[PHX]

Keep: It was good timing and it ended up turning into a pretty good heel run for her.

Shane Mcmahon vs Legacy feud

 

[Kingslayer]

Change. I don't like Shane or any member of Legacy and it was just...fully unnecessary. It went nowhere, it accomplished nothing, it's a total waste in WWE history.

Chris Benoit becoming World Heavyweight Champion. Ah, now we're in to the good shit.

 

[PHX]

Keep: Not taking into account of the obviously at the time he deserved a run with the belt so I can't say I would change it.

Vickie Guerrero being a on screen mainstay

 

[Kingslayer]

Change. She was largely responsible for Edge's character getting MURDERED and turning one of the best talents in the company in to someone who was unbearable to look at. On top of that, nobody wants her around. She doesn't get good heat, she gets change the channel heat. When people see her, they stop watching, and yet the IWC has the nerve to call her a good heel over this. Blue logic. Exactly what you DON' T want out of one of your performers. She's only around because Vince is giving her a pity check so her kids don't starve. God, I miss Eddie. Not only because he was an amazing performer and person, but because it would've saved us the agony of seeing his wife.

Daniel Bryan's release from WWE which led to his disassociation with the Nexus and transformation into a singles competitor. This is, of course, looked at from the same perspective as the WWE had, which was that he was always coming back.

 

[PHX]

Change: This is tough for me to say because the way he came back was great and hasn't had a bad WWE career so far. However I think had he stayed with Nexus for a bit and maybe turned on them or something like that he could have had a bigger push.

The 2-21-11 video packages

 

[Phenomenal1]

Keep: It generated a ton of interest in the WWE product when people kept thinking it was Sting and claiming to see Scorpions and all that shit on the house.

Rob Van Dam losing the ECW Title to Big Show in the fashion that he did

 

[PHX]

Keep: Keeping mostly just cause it ended up being a hidden blessing in the sense that Big Show got one of the more entertaining title runs in recent memory.

The creation of WWE's ECW

 

[Kingslayer]

Keep. Though it was a shithouse of a program, it did give some people worth noting a chance to climb the ladder. CM Punk starting on ECW allowed him to be a high profile member of a roster quickly that he likely wouldn't have been otherwise, albeit a small one, and was allowed to break out to a certain degree, and Miz probably wouldn't be in the position he's in now if it wasn't for ECW. Sending him to ECW with Morrison was what really saved his career and allowed himself to build for the future.

The creation of the Money In The Bank.

 

[Phenomenal1]

Keep: Its always an entertaining match and gives wrestlers that likely wouldn't get the titile run without their chance to attempt to shine. Not to mention its snowballed into its own PPV which I highly enjoyed its first incarnation last year.

WWE buying out WCW

 

[PHX]

Keep: Though I like seeing other companies WCW was just a mess at that point and was only getting worse.

Taker's Biker gimmick

 

[Kingslayer]

Keep. He needed a change and his run as Big Evil was better than anything he's done as the Deadman.

Ted Dibiase Sr's WWE Championship reign not being recognized by WWE. (Andre The Giant won the title and Dibiase purchased it from him, which was considered invalid)

 

[PHX]

Change: Considering his gimmick I don't see why they didn't make it count though imo he should have legit won it anyways.
