The fact they had to use 2 part timers (one who usually wrestles no more than once a year) to headline SummerSlam, their so called 2nd biggest PPV of the year, is not good.
and now calling on a nearly 60 year old Sting (and Cena again :eyeroll), who's wrestled a total of 1 time in WWE, to headline NOC.
Let's take a look at this past year's main events.
Royal Rumble Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena vs. Seth Rollins
Fastlane Roman Reigns vs. Daniel Bryan
WrestleMania 31 Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns
Extreme Rules Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton
Payback Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Randy Orton vs. Dean Ambrose
Elimination Chamber Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose
Money in the Bank Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose
Battleground Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar
SummerSlam The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar
Night of Champions Seth Rollins vs. Sting
It's been the year of The Shield to say the least. But other than them, what other stars are really close to the main event level? Plus, the way they completely botched Ambrose's main event run is inexcusable. He should be on top of WWE as a Stone Cold-level face right now, yet just recently he's doing jobs to Big Show. :deanfpalm
Not to mention rushing Reigns too fast, too soon and may have ruined him also as far as the main event goes. A heel turn for both of them might be their best route to get back to credible main event status.
and finally, the one tool they should be using to build up a new up and coming talent, the Money in the Bank, is currently held by none other than Sheamus. :ha
when you have arguably the most talented roster to date, there's really no excuse for the lack of main event talent. If by this time next year, they're still calling on guys like Undertaker, Sting, The Rock etc. instead of guys like Cesaro, Owens, Rusev, Barrett or Wyatt to headline PPVs, then sad wouldn't begin to describe it.
