What exactly is the WWE? Is it a media enterprise? Is it a wrestling promotion? Is it something that makes TV shows like a network studio? Is it a monarchy run by the McMahon empire? Or is it a corporate guy who blows his nose into a tissue and then throws it away, because he’s done with it?
Well I think it’s all of the above. This is the first time in a long time that I’ve become disappointed with the kind of crap that the wwe has been feeding me. Unfortunately, there are millions across the world who’re also feeling the same way. Don’t get me wrong –I’m not a wwe hater, read through all of this before you call me that.
Some people are saying that it’s just a slump; well I don’t care, it’s been in a slump for far too long to even call it a slump. Its a problem that the wwe recognized (officially) only when their pay per view sales went down.Something they “remedied” by integrating all three brands into every little ppv.
Wrestlers from raw,smackdown and ecw will now wrestle in every ppv.The wwe hopes of course that this will make people like us buy the ppv’s.Will this work? I think it will but only for a very short time.
A few months ago Vince McMahon stood in his ring and said “you people don’t get to like what you want, I tell you what to want and you’ll like it”. Seems to be true. I paid $50 to watch the worst ever wrestlemania in a decade and ended up watching Khali vs. Kane, Ashley vs. Melina and the ECW originals vs. the new breed. Was this some other ppv or wrestlemania??????
The wwe calls us “fans”. I view us as fans and also as customers-that’s right, we pay good money for a product and expect something in return called customer satisfaction.
I want to see great storylines, greater matches, people who deserve to be in the ring actually occupying it.
What I get in return is ppv after ppv with cheap thrills. Do you really think I’d watch the damn show just because the pyro is brighter and hotter, the explosions are louder and the video preview is more impressive? I don’t give a rats a** if saliva or daughtry played your theme song and I am disgusted with guys like timbaland,the carter morons and some dude called Kevin federline grace the very ring that was and is the life of Bret hart, Steve Austin, the rock, Eddie guerrero,Arn Anderson and hundreds like them.
People I admired while growing up. People I wanted to see more of…… the fact is that I was hoping that the wwe would show me more guys like them in this decade. People who could at the end of the day tell, sell and wrestle a great story.
Since the millennium hit, the wwe has “bought” WCW,-spoilt it and tried to evaporate any trace of it from it’s company.ECW has been brought back to life only so that it can be killed—-again.
Does it even make good business sense to put Paul Heyman under suspended animation? “Release” so many originals with good talent and then dub the four active alumni as originals out of whom one is already gone(Sabu) and another is on his way out(RVD).So that leaves two wrestlers and two announcers left in the company who were actually a part of the real ECW!!!!!
This is a case of something that’s been wwe’d .ECW has been wwe’d.That means, instead of watching one bad show and one “o.k”show a week,we now have to watch two bad shows and one not so bad show. The wwe can call its latest show anything it wants——don’t call it ECW if you don’t treat it like ECW.
What’s even more irritating is the fact that no matter how much we scream and tell them that the show stinks, they still try to shove it down our throats. I get the feeling that the wwe has started ignoring its fans. Well it can afford to…..
But can it afford to ignore its customers? Hell no! At the end of the day, it isn’t the shareholder who influences the wwe but us. —The fans—the fan who is also a customer. If I don’t like a show and I don’t watch it the wwe doesn’t care. What if a million like me stop watching? Then they’ll start caring because it hits their t.r.p’s.I guess that’s the way to make a statement.
Let’s be very clear, I’m not asking you to stop watching raw or smackdown.I’m just saying-let them know that you will stop watching if they try to act like everything’s fine or treat your favorite wrestler unfairly just because they can and then try to shove something down your throat, and make you think it’s good for you.
How do you do this-Its up to you?
Show them that you’ll watch TNA or ROH or anything for that matter if they continue feeding you the same old crap.At the end of the day it’s not the mcmahons or the levesques who run the show, not the usa network or cw or sci-fi. Not even the share holders or the sponsors.
It’s you and me who can make things right. The time is right for us to take our show back. The “fan” needs to remind them who we are and more importantly what we can do.
We’ll play their game but we’ll play by our rules.
