Question for you /asp/. Should the WWE give the fans everything they want? Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him? Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes? Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder? At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
>>
Nah, they should keep doing whatever Vince wants, it's only shrunken his audience by 70% in 15 years
>>
>>807143
>Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him?
No. He's already a heel to half the audience. A turn is irrelevant.

>Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes?
Yes. Burying someone because they got over is nonsense and they should be looking for any opportunity to make stars.

>Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder?
Yes and let him have a run with a midcard title to see how people respond and then react accordingly.

>At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
When should they put the title on someone who is essentially a jobber now? Never.

this desu senpai baka

>Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him?
No, he is a super face that is also the face of the company.

>Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes?
No because the IWC has shit taste. They're both boring. Put Sandow on that list as well.

>Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder?
Yes because the fans are determined not to accept him and it's obvious why. I tried giving him a chance, but this booking makes me want to shoot myself. HE. BEAT. FOUR. DUDES. BY. HIMSELF.

>At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
So just put the title on Adam Rose? Why would they do that?
>>
>>807147
This is a smart post.
I expected worse from you, /asp/.

Sure seeing as it's not real anyway :^)
>>
>>807154
> Cesaro is boring

lol imagine parroting the opinions of an insane out-of-touch septuagenarian who thinks Reigns is the next big thing and that December to December was an excellent show with an excellent finish
>>
Burying Ryder was a good thing for the product as a whole and one of the few times they've actually been right in choosing to kill a star's heat rather than capitalizing on it.
>>
>>807147
>>807154
Bradshaw was more or less a lower midcarder for life before he became JBL. Same shit with Mark Henry. Absolutely no one would have thought they would have made credible champions being at the tail end of their careers, but they both pulled it off.
>>
>>807147
I agree with you but for me BOTH Cesaro and Reigns should never be higher on the card then upper midcarders bc they are both shit on the mic desu. I also agree the IWC doesnt have great taste, and turning Cena heel would be dumb now.

What's Cesaros character? How is he interesting?


So many /woo/tists in this thread
Vince should listen to fans, but not the IWC
>>
>>807173
Yeah, it was really good for the locker room's morale
>>
>>807180

>>807181
> how is Cesaro interesting

Because he's one of the best fucking wrestlers on the planet

It's why he got more and more over in his match with Reigns while the crowd increasingly turned against BBYGURL
>>
>>807187
Ryder is a garbage wrestler and a garbage talker. He didn't get over because he put in work as a wrestler, he got over because of his meme show on YouTube.

His entire character was literally "woo woo woo, you know it"
>>
>>807192
Such a bad a wrestler that he was specifically picked to be a player coach for rookies in NXT?

> gog over because of meme

Literally every fan not living in the desert is a member of the IWC by now, you dip.
>>
>>807191
Being a good technical wrestling isn't fucking interesting to a lot of people. It's fucking boring. Who cares?

Matches have inbuilt story. Storytelling is an integral part of the art of wrestling.
If you need weeks of talking and comedy skits and quasi- soap opera drivel by failed NBC writers to make you care about a match (because that's all that shit is for at the end of the day; hyping the actual WRESTLING part), the guys involved probably aren't very good wrestlers. And you could probably do better watching another form of televised entertainment than wrestling.
>>
No, fans don't know shit and will continue to pay the company.

This is why Vince McMahon is the last man standing

>"If Henry Ford asked his customers what they wanted, they would've said faster horses."
>>
>>807244
If Vince McMahon had been Henry Ford, upon the request for faster horses, would have given them a 40 year old horse with no legs and brain damage, told them it was better than the other horse and that they would love it, then offered it for the low, low price of "$9.99 maggle"

I think a better analogy would be that he'd offer them this horse.
Albeit with some tribal tattoos, of course.

>Should the WWE give the fans everything they want?
No. But they should be rewarded when giving sufficient support for something in particular.
>Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him?
No. Too many people are cheering him and buying his shit. Gotta replace both of those factors first.
>Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes?
Ryder was only ever going to be a Low-Card Hero which was perfectly fine. However he couldn't even get proper closure. Cesaro's peak sadly is Hyper-Competitive streaks in the Midcard.
>Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder?
Reigns needed both more time and a WWE Creative department that WASN'T a fifteen year-old poodle with cataracts and tumors.
>At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
Again, never. You give the title runs to those who are as over as freaking possible.
>>
>>807287
If we're playing that card, at one point Zack was so over that MSG was chanting for him during the promo after The Rock's comeback match
>>
>>807143
Yes and no.
They obviously should cave to fans' whims sometimes because they're the fucking fans; part of what makes wrestling unique is how it's much more innately interactive with its fan-base than other sports. Shunning that so routinely does nobody any good.
On the other hand, some fans' whims are just plain silly or are nothing more than momentary fancies.
tl;dr: Give Ryder and Cesaro some better booking but don't turn Cena Heel because he's the support system for your entire company
>>
>>807143
>Should the WWE give the fans everything they want?
No.
>Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him?
He should be turned heel but for a multitude of reasons, his heel heat being one of them.
>Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes?
No.
>Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder?
He should have held micard belts before being pushed as a main eventer. Everyone should. WWE lost that when they split the roster and over the years it got weaker and we ended up with lower midcarders holding world titles.
>At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
At the point where they want to get fired.
>>
>>807181
>What's Cesaros character? How is he interesting?
He's the Swiss Superman! The King of Swing! He's probably pound for pound the strongest Superstar in the WWE, Maggle!
>>
>>807143
>Should the WWE give the fans everything they want?
No

>Should Cena be turned heel because some fans are booing him?
No

>Should Ryder and Cesaro have gotten bigger pushes?
Neither to WHC, but I was a mark for Hawkins and Ryder's tag team even though they were pretty generic so I'd say just keep him there

>Should Reigns be dropped down to a midcarder?
Yes but only to build popularity with a successful title reign to build him to WHC

>At what point should creative just say fuck it and put the world title on someone like Ryder just to see where his world title run would go?
Never, it'd completely destroy the title's prestige

remember those promos about how important the fans are? YOU make all of this possible, without YOU it'd be a big empty arena?

funny, i can't recall seeing ANY of those since roman got his solo push
