This is why the wrestling business is in the sh*tter.....the fans have such ADD and want instant gratification and don't have the attention span to let angles play out. Nash appeared on two shows and people are already complaining. You have NO IDEA what is going to happen or where this is going. None of us do. Let's just wait and see and give it a chance. This is why the business is where it is. People complain about the belt bouncing around too often and too many PPV's and feuds are so short....it's because the fans have no attention span anymore. Back in the day, it would take 18 months for a feud to finally hit that boiling point....now almost every feud is over in the 3 weeks it takes to get to the next PPV because fans want INSTANT results. Maybe the internet is the reason, but back in the day we weren't obsessed with trying to know where things were going before they happened....we just watched and enjoyed. This |

Yeah man I miss the days of rivalries building for months and months before the wrestlers finally wrestled each other.
I blame it on peoples short attention spans, too many PPV's and the fact that every quarter of every hour is broken down and it seems the creative team jumps the gun and pushes stuff so fast because they want to have a good TV rating that quarter. Everything is just too rushed these days in wrestling.

Everything is just too rushed these days in wrestling. I agree with all of that. Plus, another advantage to drawing out a feud is, even if the matched sucked, it was alright because the feud was still good. Example: Starrcade 97 Sting/Hogan |

IMO WWE has been better this year then it has in many years. |

It is a very nice, interesting twist.
I am a huge fan of Nash, no matter if he is with WWE or TNA. Him being on T.V. is a treat.

I actually am enjoying where this is going so far. I think what's going to end up happening is Nash and Punk will feud for a while leading to a match at Survivor Series where Triple H will ultimately be revealed as the brains behind taking Punk down. I'm hoping for Punk VS. HHH to culminate at Wrestlemania this year.

Yeah, but Nash has been on TV twice. he should be WWE Champion bu now! |
