Blame only the champ instead of the state of the company as a whole
Ratings and quality been dropping for years but reigns and Rollins etc are the problem

You're gonna blame the guy who gets the longest matches, promos, and is protected the most on TV. Diesel, Shawn, Bret, Blandy, Reigns..they all have that common. Miz and Seth? Nah...not really. They pushed US Champion Cena over Rollins and Miz was definitely put behind Rocky and Cena str8 up.

Rollins was the most heavily featured wrestler up until his injury. The guy was holding two belts for a period time for gods sake.

With Stephanie and Cripple H in all of his segments like he was the underling....

They don't try that $hit with Cena. Ever.

Not true at all. Rollins was heavily featured in the shows and Cena was being treated like a glorified midcarder with the US Title.

HELL NAH..Cena had a lot of screentime and was pushed big time. They had him go over Rollins like 3 different times on TV....lol. $hit was buck wild.

It's hilarious how people want to question this list when names like Michaels, Sid, Diesel, and JBL have always been linked to low drawing power.

By who that I should respect as a business analyst? Meltzer? WhatCulture?


Give amateur analysis of decontextualised financial data by wrestling fans the time of day, brehs

Yeah that timeline is all fukked up by Nash.

I do believe the plan going INTO that match was to beat Goldberg, protect him with the taser and shyt, and have him be screwed by Nash and the wolfpac. For that to work the wolfpac HAS to be heels, so they would reunite the nwo...

Then hogan said great, but for that to work I have to be champ.

I HAVE TO BE CHAMP.

And the rest is history. What was the main event the next month? Goldberg vs Nash souled out 98...right as planned....

then goldberg faces Bigelow? And hogan faces flair at super brawl.…? That same month Austin would face Vince in a cage on PPV, and mania XV was in match

It was over as soon as hogan flexed that creative control.

That about sums it up brother. Goldberg getting screwed and having to beat a super NWO to regain his belt isn't a bad idea, but Nash just giving up the belt, and them doing Hogan vs Flair main events anyway, killed it. Right as WWF was at its absolute hottest also.

The Rollins/Reigns/Ambrose era is probably the worst business WWE has done in terms of house show gates and ratings in quite some time yet the fans had to fight tooth and nail for Bryan and Punk to receive a fraction of their push.

Yup

But on the other hand I'm glad that's the case because if not they would be in the same "he can't draw, he can't be the guy" that Punk and Bryan were for a long time, and that's the type of stuff we complained for years. Punk and Bryan had to go through that so hopefully other don't

Wwe continuously credits it to Foley but it was then, and "hogan vs flair AGAIN?" the turned the tide

A Shield reunion is going to do major business
