That was BS to draft John Cena to Smackdown and then draft him back. It seems every year Smackdown gets the short end of the stick and when they have a good night going Mark Henry pulls heel shit and Cena goes right back to RAW.

Cena is the face of RAW. I doubt the WWE lets him go to SD anytime soon. The Mark Henry heel turn was bound to happen. He doesn't stay face for long. I like how they are breaking up Laycrap at the same time the Beautiful People are breaking up.

What a useless Draft and again not a lot of love shown for Smackdown. At least they always win at Bragging Rights And now with Del Rio to Raw Christians chances of winning at Extreme Rules improved a bit. It would be a bit dissapointing and make Del Rio look a little bad trying so long to get the title with the big push he got. But lets just see what will happen at this Extreme (PG style) Rules and if Miz can come out the winner again.
The Laycool breakup yeah whatever maybe with Kong incoming we get some better Diva matches and less childish bitching by the Divas (at least now they could argue about weight ) And what do you think about Tough Enough? I like when Sone Cold throws someone out of the competition cause it seems like he really has no clue who it will be unless they all pleaded their cases. Especially in the case of Ryan vs Mikael (or however its spelled) when Ryan totally humiliated him with a great promo. They should just cut his hair colour it red and replace Slater with him then at least someone out of The CoRRRRRRRRRRRRRE could cut a promo without sounding ridicoulus (except Barrett). |

Another shit draft, I can't actually remember the last time there was a really good one on the cards. I think the show is starting to actually shit itself with the popularity being gained by UFC and MMA shows.

They do seem to be in panic mode. The great heavyweights that could fill the arena are being replaced by jobber champions (Miz) and small guys that act all bad ass and you know they just aren't tough at all. The Rock, Sean Michaels, Stone Cold, Edge, Trish Stratus, and Hulk Hogan are gone. If not for Cena, HHH, Randy Orton, Undertaker (when he is healthy), Kane, Christian (?), and the Big Show they would be in so much trouble without any true star power.
Remember when Cody Rhodes, Miz and most of the others came into the business and they jobbed week after week (and others like them)? You never saw Undertaker or HHH job for years and then get a push. Granted Kane used to job as Isaac Yankem for a while but when he came back as Kane and was a monster he was believable and people quickly forgot that he was ever the demented dentist. They don't have any potential superstars that can fill the seats and electrify the audience on the horizon. There is no Brock Lessner or Kurt Angle thats being pushed for weeks and weeks before they even get on the shows. Vince must be plenty worried about where the business is going and whats going to be left for Shane and Stephanie. |

Undertaker was a jobber in WCCW (as Texas Red, Master of Pain & the Punisher, at various times) and then a mid-carder in WCW (as Mean Mark Callous) before he went to the then-WWF; HHH was a midcarder in WCW as Jean Paul Levesque & Terra Ryzing. Even some of the other big stars that you mentioned (Michaels, Austin, Edge) were jobbers/midcarders in other territories before making it big in the WWE. It's a different era now, so people have to grow on TV instead of in small arenas without the bright lights; other than the guys that come up from ROH & PWG (such as CM Punk or Daniel Bryan) people are starting off in the WWE & it's developmental territories. And I honestly think you're downplaying Miz' star power; as champ he went on TV shows like Conan O'Brien, getting more 'mainstream' attention in a few months than Christian has in his whole career combined. Just my two-cents. |

HHH jobbed a fair bit when he started as Hunter Hurst Hemsley, a 30 second match V the warrior at WM whatever and a fued with garbage man he was a lower mid carder until he started DX with shawn micheals and even then it wasn't until shawn was injured and he took over DX did he move up to main event level
even michelas in the rockers was a tag team jobber as they lost more matchs V other main tags teams (not teams on superstars) i think the Miz was awesome as champ, the man we loved to hate a lot like JBL

If John Cena could lose a match Clean the miz could have become a suoerstar . to me that means has done something nobody else can against the number one guy .. I still take him seriously though unlike 50-60% of the wwe roster and he made great strides but I don't want it to all be for nothing.
Now it is all about cena vs the rock |
