This "Rise and Fall of the WWE" Trailer Sums Up Exactly How Most WWE Fans Feel About The Product Right Now

 
Very, very well done. Using clips of guys talking about WCW’s fall while showing clips of the last year of WWE. Hit the nail directly on the head.

I said this in a blog earlier this week, but I can’t remember a time where there was less hype for Wrestlemania. Last year the attention to wrestling was sky high. And it’s because everything happened organically. And that’s the irony of it—Vince wants nothing more than to cross over into the mainstream, but he wasn’t to do it his way and his way only. He doesn’t care what you think, he wants you to like what he thinks. And in his mind if you don’t like what he likes, it means you’re wrong. They tried their hardest last year to keep Daniel Bryan out of the main event of Wrestlemania because that’s not what Vince wanted. He finally caved and it was awesome. This year he decided Roman Reigns would be his new belle of the ball, and nobody could give a shit less about him. But since Vince turns into Bugs Bunny and gets hearts in his eyes when he sees his Lola Bunny/Roman Reigns, that’s what we’re going to be force-fed.

Mania is 3 weeks from this Sunday. Maybe something will happen between now and then that will gain more interest among casual viewers? In all likelihood it will require someone like Stone Cold or the Rock to jump on board real quick. Otherwise, yea…kinda just is what it is.

PS: Not to say the Wrestlemania card sucks. I think it’s actually pretty good, all things considered. But it just doesn’t seem as great as years past. Besides Sting making his WWE debut (15 years too late) nothing else really sticks out as special.
