Not trying to create one would be a good start, every great period in wrestling happened organically whereas now they try to force shyt. If it wasn't Punk trying to coin the "reality era" it's Stephanie calling for a "divas revolution", just let shyt happen and it will all come into place.

The only thing you have to do to make another boom is give Heyman complete control of booking the shows.

That's it imo :manny:

Boom periods are by and large built on the back of one or two mega stars. Hogan in the 80s, Austin and Rock in the Attitude Era etc.

Problem is with how WWE develops their talent it's almost impossible to create a truly charismatic world star as things are so micro managed we just get bunch of vanilla, bland guys who don't have the freedom to develop their characters and become really engaging to the audience. Imagine Austin coming up in this era. There's be no Austin 3:16 speech, he'd be closer in personality to The Ringmaster than Stone Cold. That sense of unpredictability would be completely neutered.

Nothing is more important than the talent. This is what makes people buy tickets. But these guys now are just robots because they're chained down to passionless scripts written by motherfukkers who don't even understand wrestling.

The stars create the boom period, the boom period doesn't create the stars. Create some REAL stars first then you can maybe start thinking about business getting out of the dumpster.

Austin would been jobbing to the Oddities if this Vince was running the attitude era
