WWE Bringing Back Veterans?, Vince Upset with WWE Youth Movement, More

Posted by Marc Middleton on July 20, 2011 at 4:14 AM

- 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.

- Vince McMahon was reportedly disappointed with the outcome of Tough Enough and how the show failed, in his eyes, to produce new marketable talent with potential to be a top star.

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.

if that's their idea of veterans then it shouldn't happen. Tough enough had several people i'd be happy to see on raw.

How would Batista fit in now? He weights 180 lbs now and nothing like he was before size wise. On a side note I don't see why so many hate on Batista. Several wrestlers botch moves, hell Owen Hart almost ended Stone Colds career on a botched pile driver, thats why Stone Cold has neck problems. Batista brings incredible energy, but with his weight, he'd be cruiser weight now.

Vince is upset about the youth movement? well what the hell does he want?, it's his own hiring practices and his own goofy ass stooges that's causing all the problems. Geez, between this, and his child-like reaction to the latest RAW rating, maybe HHH really should take over from here.

What the hell do they expect! There is no individual creativity any more. I worked for years for Angelo Poffo and Randy Savage in the ICW. Myself and my partner (Kenny Shane, may he rest in peace) had a reputation for creativity and thinking on our feet. I don't remember a single time that I was handed a script. Vince has done this to the business and deserves what he gets. If you don't promote and reward individual creativity, you end up with robots. These guys today, go out and follow the script and if the crowd is not responding, they do nothing creative on their own to get the crowd into the show, because they don't know how, or they are not trusted to make such a decision. I worked Jerry Lawler in Memphis in the mid '80's, and wasn't handed a script, for live television. We were supposed to be professionals, and understand how to do things for the good of the business. Where is the individual creativity? If you have seen one John Cena match, you have seen them all. He only does a hand full of moves and he does them all in every match he has ever had. In my day, he would have been laughed out of the dressing room. The WWE has no one to blame for their problems but themselves. Hire imagination and talent, not dumb-asses with more muscles than sense. One of the few that fit that mold, today is CM Punk and look at how well the people respond to him. You wanted robots, now look what you have. You can write the stories, but you can't write individual talent. That comes from within.
