I have always thought that the creative end in this unique form of theatre has always lacked the perspective of the informed fan who watches from the only source that they can, the idiot box.
Right off the bat, I see that there are major talks about a stable of second generation wrestlers and it sparked a thought about something . They are looking for something for Flair to do, what about a second generation of horsemen . What about having Flair pop up on various shows looking for something and in the process he reforms the four horsemen . What he is really looking for is someone to carry on the name of the “Nature Boy”.
Part of the problem was they didn't prepare for Flair's retirement properly . They had to have known that the day was coming and yet they gave no thought to what he would do after he hung up his Robe .
Next problem , the tag team division . For a wrestling company that was at the very least partially built on its tag teams , the attention to the tag team division has been spotty at best for a long long time . When they had Booker T and Bobby Lashley on the same show, why wouldn't you at least think about reconstituting one of the greatest tag teams of all time Harlem Heat. The precedent has already been set when they dusted off “the animal” and the legion of doom was reborn. Heidenreich comes no where near hawk but you went ahead and did it anyway.
My idea involves Eric Bischoff coming to raw one night for a closed door meeting with Vince . He is seen minutes later leaving Vince's office later in the show but he leaves the arena completely , he stops Jeff Hardy in the back and asks him if he has a dollar. Eric hands him a legal type document and tells him if you play that right you'll drive the boss nuts . The meat of story is the only thing that Vince didn't get when he bought WCW was the rights to the Crockett Cup, a huge tag team tournament PPV. You get some teams together and have some qualifying matches on all three of your shows and have the finals at a later PPV.
Well that's all for know . Hope to talk to you soon…… .
