ummmmm, how 'bout no. WWE has focused on celebrities too much for this decade.

I'd rather there be people who have paid their dues and deserve to be in the ring over those two.

If it was up to internet marks the World Champ would be Jerry Lynn and the tag champs would be The Maximo brothers and WWE would be drawing .1's in syndication. Remove yourself from 2002, and come to the present where nobody gives a crap about the Maximo's or believes Lynn should be doing anything other then putting over people in the opening match. If it wasnt for Tyson attitude era wouldnt have took over like it did. Celebs help wrestling like it or not. Before Iron Mike ratings were already very high, all Tyson did was partake in one angle that made significantly less money then ten or eleven other angles before and after that. Cade/Murdoch dont draw anything. Same for D/D. It's about ratings and business. Merchandise selling. Not who is a great wrestler anymore. It's not the 1950's. Last I checked WWE isn't depending on tag teams to draw ratings, let alone one good one, and one horrible one. Their biggest drawing team in the Hardys are split. There are no other hot teams that sell tickets right now. Before Hardys it was gimmicks like Too Cool and New Aged Outlaws. Were they great workers? Heck no but they draw. WWE does not depend on tag teams to draw ratings. You don't see tag title matches headlining shows. Try again. Net fans stick with their work rate heroes, cruiserweights, japanese guys but WWE doesnt listen to them. Know why? It doesnt draw here in the US. Japan is a different story. It drew well enough for WCW during their heyday where cruiserweights had great matches and made money. A person's color of skin, race, or religion shouldn't matter, but to WWE it does. If the WWE didn't book stereotypes like evil Japanese or evil arabs, you wouldn't be saying that. I see the potential in business. Just like Cena. If it was up to WF Cena wouldnt be champ. Truth is he is one of the biggest draws ever. Cena's not even in the same stratosphere as a draw as guys like Hogan, Austin, Rock, HHH, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, etc. He just seems like a draw now because there is nothing to compare him to. Please try and be accurate, if you are willing to make points like the above.

You have to be one of the dumbest people on WF. Along with the guy with "Tap out to the Five Knuckle Shuffle" in his sig.

That's what I am saying here. Merchandise. How well do Cade/Murdoch shirts sell? Ever even seen one? Right. Their figures were major shelfwarmers as well. Teams like this do not move tickets. They do not draw BUSINESS. Doesnt matter how good of wrestlers they are. Might as well put the belts on manikins. Rob/Big are merchandise cash cows and would bring in the MTV audience. You're out of line. Tyson didn't wrestle, he added spice to a match up without having to look like a jackass. And just so you know, not many teams sell money. Look at the lineage of the World Tag Team Titles in recent years, who sold? Tag teams in today's world don't sell arenas out, bottom line. Cade and Murdoch have had 1 piece of merchandise (aside from random trading cards), their action figures. But they were released after the team split up, so it was a turn-off to little kids. And the internet didn't like them because of the half-assed production quality. Rob and Big, as tag champs? Call me a wrestling purist, but why? Cash cows? So, why not a 1 time gig without having to disgrace the titles? I mean, ICP has a good teenage following, but they did squat for WCW business.
