Bret Hart wasn't pushed rapidly. He won the WWF Title 8 years after his debut in the company. Diesel didn't win the Title within months of debuting. It was 1 year 1/2. Just thought I'd correct you on that. Main Event pushes have typically been pretty rapid because, once again, the thing that made the WWF the top company in the world has been giving the fans what they want, not telling the fans what they're supposed to want. Obviously, this philosophy has been abandoned in the past few years... and the current status of the company reflects that. I really hope something bad happens and forces them to actually start trying.

I really hope something bad happens and forces them to actually start trying. Something bad did happen. They had Bryan poised to be the most popular Champion in years, and because they chose to slow roll the audience, he got injured and had to take time off at the height of his potential. It's not going to change anything.

It's not going to change anything. Maybe we should just give in and start liking who they want us to like... It might make watching more enjoyable.

So... Brock Lesmar, John Cena, Rollins, and RVD?

So long as Cena's here, they always have a fallback.
Bryan forced to vacate the title? Enter Cena. Lesnar happens to win the title in a classic "$@#% you" to the fans? Enter Cena. Bad News Barrett forced out with another injury? Enter Cena. Ice cream went splat all over the floor? Enter Cena.

When did Reigns work a singles match with Orton? I know they had a live show match together that Reigns won and maybe a Smackdown match but I maybe wrong on that one.

They only want us to like RVD so we can hate whoever he faces. He's not going over anyone, he's just here to play an established face.
