    WWE tries to force every guy into the same cookie cutter role for years and it doesn't work because few are all round talents. You think about Goldberg in WCW, they realized he couldn't cut a promo and so they just never had him talk and look how over he got whereas in wwe if you're a bad talker, too bad you have to follow this lame ass script our failed b movie screenplay writer coughed up.

I support the idea that wrestlers should have the right to decide what to SAY and how to PERFORM in the ring and in backstage segments/interviews, but NOT what the storylines are going to be about and how they will play out. They also should NOT have the right to decide who wins and who loses either, because THAT is what Backstage Politics is. You are absolutely a 100% right! A Truly Smart Booker/Writer is SUPPOSED to book/write for the audience. Excellent wisdom there my friend!

They don't allow them to have real personalities. They stifle their creativity and streamline everything. Line for line promos. Bad storylines that go nowhere. Not listening to fan response. Cena was massively over and wasn't around during the AE. They just allowed him to flourish. After Cena got big they pretty much did away with most of the organic way of building up characters and wrestlers. When Cena was getting booed, they never turned him heel. Hell, they turned AUSTIN heel back in the AE. They didn't listen to the fan response to Daniel Bryan or CM Punk. Punk could have been the next Austin. They just don't want to make compelling shows anymore. They'd rather make an easily digestible, safe product for the masses and make money off of their TV deals.

WWE had EASILY the most stacked roster since AE talent-wise a few years ago and they basically built no stars from it. Most of the guys from the indies they were signing can do their own stuff and don't need to be scripted so hard. They've basically let them all go by now with nothing to show for it.

    What makes WWE especially frustrating today is they absolutely do have some of the best talents in the industry today (just look at a lot of their current wrestlers and look up their pre-WWE work), but they're constantly set up for failure because they're booked based on a single man's preference instead of being booked to their respective strengths. They have all the resources to put out the greatest wrestling product of all time, but they just... _don't._ They are to wrestlers what EA is to game studios.

    Technically he should've been face but the whole aftermath was so poorly handled that people simply turned on him. But the situation absolutely should've led to Vince being face: - Bret refused to give up the title to the only guy in the company who was available (Austin was still suffering from the broken neck, Undertaker was involved with Kane, most others were injured as well and Brets stupid saying of "I drop the belt to Shamrock", a guy who never drew, was always idiotic. There simply was no other believable main eventer available except HBK) - Bret refusing the belt could've led to another "The belt gets thrown in the trash/otherwise used live on the competition" moment, like with Madusa or Ric Flair before. So by doing the "Screwjob", Vince just protected his business and his belt - A 40 year old guy throwing a hissy fit over a belt and losing it to another guy he doesn't like is shameful. Sometimes in life you just have to suck up and do what's right, even if you hate it. Besides, i always found it weird, that Hart, the guy who took pro wrestling so fucking serious and was all about tradition and unwritten rules, broke the unwritten rule of "If you leave a territory, you leave it on your back" (meaning you lose on your way out to everybody the promoter wants you to lose, no questions asked) The whole "Bret screwed Bret" (and i mean the title is right, Bret screwed himself and simply deserved the Screwjob) interview was just so badly done, that people called bullshit and turned on Vince. In hindsight though, this was the best possible outcome. Imagine if the whole original plan went through and Vince was a face, how would the WWF have turned out without the Vince - Austin feud?

That became aparent when his matches turned into crap. The only time in WCW Bret actually gave more than 50% in a match was against Benoit in the Owen Hart tribute thing.

    Cornette Made a Fantastic Point, it was a Blessing in Disguise for Old Talent such as Hogan, Nash and Hall to Leave the WWF and go to WCW. As it gave the WWF, Room to Develop and Promote Young and Fresh New Talent such as Austin, The Rock, HHH, Kane, Big Show, The Undertaker, Chyna, The Dudley Boyz, The Hardy Boyz, Edge & Christian, D-Generation X etc. It allowed the WWF to Elevate this Newcomers into the New Breed of Wrestling Superstars instead of being Overshadowed by the Old Blood. Which What Exactly Happened in WCW. Apart from Goldberg, Booker T, Sting and Scott Steiner Everyone Else was Overshadowed by Hogan, Nash and Flair. WCW Didn't Allow their Young Guns to Rise Up and Take their Show to the Next Level.

Anytime there is a supposed bloodbath? Pure AE. So yeah, the AE was about the talent at the time making the edgy content work. The two weren't mutually exclusive.

    The Attitude Era had the greatest collection of talent assembled who were top talents for the WWE/WWF title. Stone Cold, The Rock, Undertaker, Kane, Mankind, HHH & Kurt Angle. Those are serious heavyweights fighting for the top prize. Probably no wrestling promotion ever had that much talent at the top. Truly amazing era of wrestling.

    I totally agree with what JR said at the end there but you also have to do what the fans want, I wasn't a big Austin fan but I still to this day think that McMahon did the right thing by pushing Austin because at the time he was what the fans wanted to see, and, as JR said, he was able to execute it very well, and the late 90s in general was a very anti-authority time period and Stone Cold fit right into that like a glove.

It’s how it was and is done in every area and promotion outside of the modern WWE. No scripts just bullet points.
