John Laurnatis is single handily saving the WWE
TNA isn't up to the standard it used to be, as the past couple of years (i.e. Hogan getting into teh company) have seen a big spike downward in overall interest. Look at Victory Road last year and tell me with a straight face that was good planning on the company's part. WWE is frantically trying to write a good story that doesn't involved John Cena, but I do like what they are doing with CM Punk and, for a time, Mark Henry. Other than that, it's either go indy or go home for me.
Very true. I got into TNA a year before Hogan came in and I watched old ppvs and matches on youtube I was loving it, then he came in and ruined it. 6 sides was good for TNA. Victory Road oh boy that was mess but I think that they are trying to get on the main picture. Last I saw of CM Punk he had his outburst on raw an the situation with Vince, then he won the belt and left but now he is back. Is Cena the WWE's golden boy now?
They are teasing turning him heel actually, but they wont. If he turned heel everyone will love him. I reckon he will take Kane on in an astral plane challenge or something stupid to get his mind back. Think arkham asylum scarecrow stuff but with cena and kaneVery true.

Way too many little kids love Cena for them to ever turn him now. The fans who hate him will never change their minds and the kids who love him might not come back if they turn him now. I kind of like the Star Wars thing they have going with Emperor Palpa-Kane getting Luke Cenawalker to embrace the Dark Side.
WWE actually has a lot of interesting stuff right now. Chris Jericho and his amazing Lite Brite Jacket, Daniel Bryan's slow burn heel turn, Johnny Ace remembering he has a personality, and CM Punk straight ethering him with that promo on Raw this past Monday. As long as he can avoid a certain moderator hopping the rails and humping him to death that is.
Also, don't forget the greatest thing in wrestling and perhaps the world right now: The FUNKASAURUS.
I haven't been keeping up with WWE much I think the only thing that interest me right now is the fact they finally gave Daniel Bryan the title. Hopefully they won't screw that up like Alberto Del Rio, or Mark Henry's run. I plan on at least watching the rumble and mania, though.

Are you implying that giving Del Rio and Henry title runs was a bad idea; or are you saying that creative didn't know how to market one of the greatest mexican wrestlers ever and a fat guy?
I just hope they let Daniel Bryan go all out as a heel like he did in ROH. The spot where he would be doing some illegal tactic, break at a 4 count, then yell at the ref for admonishing him when in fact "I HAVE TILL FIVE!" never failed to crack me up.
I just hate that (as evidenced by this very thread) they've convinced people he's boring by having Michael Cole just bury the poor bastard every week. Even when he's acting all heelish they still have the heel announcer bury him, which is double stupid since it just makes it seem Cole was in fact correct all along. The last few weeks on Smackdown Bryan has been putting on a clinic on how to be a subtle bad guy. Young kids in wrestling school should watch tapes of this stuff.
