I'm one of the few who wouldn't even say Bryan is being buried. He's still a main focal point. He looked damn good last night as well. Not everyone can be champion, doesn't mean you're being buried. Not to mention it was pretty obvious that Batista was going to win. I mean... People should be more upset about how predictable the PPV was, more than an unadvertised star not winning it. He curtain jerked the PPV and lost. I dont have as much problem with losing...as I do with placement on the card. In addition, I consider him being buried when you hear a hot crowd like that and they are shat all over. When the biggest PPV is coming and your most OVER star is not headlining it....thats misuse. Perhaps, buried is a tiny bit strong. But he has been used for his abilities, but never rewarded. Its like putting Rollins in 2nd in RR. They know he can last just about the entire Rumble. So put him out there early cuz we need to get all 3 Shield to the end. Curtain Jerk must have a completely different meaning now than it did when I was a kid. I thought it was a very competitive match that they booked very well. It felt like it could have gone either way. And for all we know, maybe Batista was promised the WM main event when they were in contract negotiations back in September? And maybe that is why they rushed the title unification so quickly? I dunno, just a thought.

Unless you're a Nielsen member, you don't matter. WWE won't know if you watched or not. Exactly. I did send them a message expressing my displeasure and requested a refund of the ppv though.

Views will affect how they look at things and thats all I can think of. They probably laugh at those letters that people send. They know that no matter what, we will still tune in. Exactly, everyone just bends over willingly and lets Vince go in dry. Everyone bitches and cries, but still comes back for more.

If you're that worked up about wrestling, the WWE is doing their job. The payoff (when something great happens) will be THAT much worth it.
I'm buying the Network, buying figures and anything else I want from WWE. There's no need to attempt to kill something you love.

I like how you're completely ignoring several people telling you that your plan won't work and just carrying on like an ignorant little stoot to the people that are also completely ignoring the several people saying that your plan won't work.

How and when did I ignore them? Let me try what you're doing here; I like how you're not reading anything and assuming you know everything like the internet wannabe smark piece of $#!t you are.

I do watch TNA, and it's a hell of a lot more entertaining and they actually listen to and respect their fans. And no, WWE isn't all I have because I don't just stick to the main stream stuff that's shoved down my throat like everyone else on here apparently.

Yea, Today's wrestling fan really have no choice, Unless your willing to expand your horizons and actually watch Japanese Pro Wrestling or take up the Indies in your area your stuck with either TNA or the WWE.
It was a much better time in the 70's and 80's believe me. We had so much great product to choose from that I really can't explain to today's wrestling fan how great it was. I really do feel for todays fan because they really are stuck between a Rock and a Hard place.

I read everything, and saw you only acknowledging the select people agreeing with you and completely disregarding the majority telling you your plan is faulty. And I like how I'm a internet wannabe smark piece of **** when you're the one thinking you not watching Raw because you're mad a guy that said he wasn't going to be in the Rumble wasn't in the Rumble and didn't win the Rumble will change anything. Let me try what you're doing here: Guys, I'm mad Sting wasn't in and didn't win the Rumble. I had no reason to believe he was going to be in the Rumble, all the signs lead me to believe he wasn't going to be in the Rumble, but I'm mad so I won't watch so WWE will change. Yeah, me not watching won't be noticed because my viewership doesn't effect ratings as several people have told me and given me proof of this, but what do they know.

They're trying more and more to make their shows view-able to world wide audiences and they have fantastic talent. I'm not saying I won't watch WWE, but I think WWE doesn't try as hard to entertain. As if they know they'll win the majority because TNA comes across as a weird joke most days.

There are plenty of people that are as upset as you are about the way things went down last night (myself included), and we've all attempted to point out exactly why your idea is faulty and a waste of your time. In fact, we even offered up steps you COULD take to potentially make an impact and invoke the change you want.

You want to send a message. Stop buying the video games. Stop buying the figures. Stop going to events. Stop going to their website. Do not subscribe to the new Network. Do not purchase any products that sponsor the WWE and write each of them and explain in a courteous and professional manner why you are no longer buying their product. NOW, get THOUSANDS of people to do the exact same thing. Not watching the show doesn't do anything. But good luck getting thousands of wrestling fans to do that. More realistically, to REALLY send a message, the fans should keep doing EXACTLY what the fans at the Rumble did last night. For a very long time. Feverishly support the people you like, and let them know how you feel about the ones you don't. And throw trash. Lots of trash. Into the ring. NWO style!

I dunno, just a thought. Curtain jerk means opening the show in the first match. Booking 101 says you NEVER put your hottest act or the show stealing match our first. This will wreck the rest of your show. Oh hey their train wreck of a show! Perhaps Batista was promised this. But thats insane. Batista isnt The Rock. He isnt generating more ticket sales, PPV buys, merchandise sales or ratings. I think its smart to bring him back. I think its smart to put him in a premiere match at WM. I dont personally like him....but its smart booking. Whats not smart is sacrificing, not only a hot act, but a guy who has been proving his value, marketability and staying power for nearly a year now.....all in the face of WWE's misuse of him.

Though I have to say I'm pretty pissed with how it's all played out in regards to Daniel Bryan, I have to wonder how in a big "WHAT IF" world, how we would have all felt these days if the old ECW was as mainstream as modern WWE and we had to sit through the "Will Tommy Dreamer ever get the strap" storyline. We'd be putting our faces through the walls.
With that said, I'm still annoyed.
