King hasn't been good since 1997. JBL was ok in 2006-2007 because he just ripped on guys, face or heel, and was always belittling Cole. Cole was always a company guy and enunciated things in an annoying way. I liked Booker T's tenure on it for the short while he was doing it.

Isn't there a clip from that one recent Smackdown that got uploaded uncut to the web that had Cole arguing with Vince over the headset? I mean, I remember seeing it on Botchamania.
He wouldn't. He'd go to the store and buy it himself.
I bet they still come out way ahead on Rey Mysterio with the merchandise even though he hasn't been on TV consistently in years. Otherwise they wouldn't have bothered to keep trying to extend his contract.
Big Show still has his uses too...just not in the main event and not decimating youngrt talent for weeks on end like they had him do with Harper/Rowan. Seems like they are doing okay on that front with the Rusev feud.

It's not Tommy Johns surgery. It's the surgery he was going to have back in August, which would have had him back probably next month or so. Now he'll be lucky to make Mania if he has the surgery soon. If I was him, I'd probably demand it at this point. Mania's the biggest payday of the year.
I think that's primarily because of Rusev

Nah, he wouldn't cancel it, just turn it into some hybrid game/reality/wrestling show.

Koran Korner with Stro 10/14/2014
There are two kinds of every fruit
When Allah wishes evil on someone/a city, there is no averting it.
Lightning and storms actually bring hope from Allah, as lightning and thunder signifies rain, which is pretty dope.
Allah is The One. The Dominant.
The cosmic retcon is mentioned a few more times.
"Easterns" bit their hands when annoyed. I don't know if this was referring to Asians, Eastern Arabs, Europeans or what.
Rebel tyrants will go to Hell and be forced to drink pus. They won't be able to swallow it all and they'll feel like they're dying. Forever.
Satan more or less says, "my bad" to those he convinced to sin, but also said to blame yourself.
Allah is really proud of his parable and metaphor skills.
Man is unjust and ungrateful.
Abraham was instructed to terrify pagans into converting. Later passages say you shouldn't speak too harshly to pagans/idolaters so as to not get them all riled up.
El Hajr = The Rock
The Muslims/Allah never destroyed a city without warning them ahead of time. They also never punished a city before sending an apostle first, to give them a chance to repent and convert. But they destroyed MANY cities and peoples.
The signs of the Zodiac, constellations, and the possibility of reincarnation are mentioned.
There are 7 doors to Heaven, and 7 doors to Hell. There is a different party at every door in Hell. There are also various degrees to Heaven. The more Allah likes you, the better your Heaven experience will be.
Abraham was scared shitless the first time he saw angels. Gabriel is also referred to as "The Holy Spirit", which is not at all the same thing as the Christian idea of it.
Lot's wife was pre-destined to linger behind and look at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. There were earthquakes and a raining of baked clay falling on the cities.
Jews and Christians are referred to as "Separatists" who altered the teachings of the Book.
There is a long passage about all the things Allah has given to man. From the stars and moon and sun and mountains and grass and animals and...everything. It is actually quite beautiful and has no mention of fear, Hell, or killing in it. It's probably the most comforting and poetic passage I've read so far. It's just like, "Look at all these dope things I've given to you to make life awesome". This includes milk from cattle and the fruits to create wine. Pretty heavy endorsement of wine, even though other passages say you shouldn't drink alcohol or intoxicants. All animals believe in Allah.
Allah knows ALL of your secrets. All of them.
The Tower of Babel is referred to in passing.
Arabs used to called angles "Daughters of Allah", but at the same time, they'd bury their infant daughters alive. This disgusted Mo, who told them to knock that shit off immediately and then it was decreed that killing your child is one of the worst sins you can ever commit.
Honey is dope as fuck. Bees are dope. They make multiple kinds of honey, some of different colors, and some used as medicine for men.
Allah will force some to such a decrepit age that they will will not be able to remember anything they learned. That is his will. Causing Alzheimer's sounds mean as fuck.
Don't go overboard with revenge. This comes from a story of the Meccans killing Mo's uncle and then mutilating his corpse. It is requested to not get crazy with revenge, even though that is definitely not the case at other points in the book.
Arab tribes used to break treaties if they felt they had a larger population (as in, more warriors who could kill if need be). Mo and Allah find this distasteful and require them to honor their treaties.
A lot of threats towards Mecca. The people of Mecca didn't care for Mohammed or his teachings for quite a while it seems.
Be nice to your parents.
You should support your family/troops/tribe/city. It is okay if you can't due to being poor or having to leave the area for a job.
Do not pursue that if which thou has no knowledge.
"There is no city but we will destroy it before the day of judgement, or torment it with keen torment. That is in the Book prescribed."

All the other ideas are great. These however would cause a company already hemorrhaging money to hemorrhage even more. And I don't believe the benefit of any of these things, barring maybe Raw to 2 hours, would outweigh the money it would cost to do them.

There's no way even WWE's revisionist history can make that sound right. I am curious to hear them try. WWE's lightweights were a joke, compared to the insane talent WCW had (and actually used.)
I have a strong feeling that they'll focus heavily on how WCW cruiserweights were being held down by upper card WCW stars and didn't get their chance to truly shine until they jumped to WWE. That or they'll continue talking about how ECW was really where the WCW cruiserweight division came from.

Raw is in a slump.
Thank god for NXT to help to keep the disappointed Bryan news. Plus back to evil within soon.
If it was the truth. It was awesome matches that made WCW good and help against horrible main events. Though those top guys held them down and were not allowed to break the glass ceiling. So they kept having the same matches for over 2 years but were made to look like jobbers by the top guys. So they got frustrated and wanted out and some went to the WWE to become stars.

I'm convinced Vince uses the term because he is worried about getting attacked for being a monopoly. Which the government wouldn't mind if the Wrestlers and backstage staff were unionized.
If Wrestlers had a union representation you probably wouldn't have the problems that wrestler have at the end of their career.
Agreed
I don't think he is the issue...
This is the issue. Broadcasters need to have the room to improvise and call the match as they see it.
Agreed. Hell they could reuse old sets. They have all of the old sets in a warehouse in Connecticut for WWE and WCW. Altough they are hemorageing money and this has saved them a ton.
Will never happen. Vince loves the house show money and its been funding the company for years. They could do a month of NXT or taped house shows and people probably wouldn't miss a beat.
Huge one. Belts need to mean something and there needs to be storylines involved for every belt. Right now there is 0 story line for the US,Tag,and Intercontinental Title
Can't see that happening. It would make more sense to move it to Tuesday and not compete with football.
If you are going to bring Celebs in you bring them on commentary or you have to put them in danger.
This is Hogan 2.0. He ain't moving out of the spotlight unless he is fired.
Depends on how you use the Intercontinental title.
Then why have 12 PPVs? All of the PPV events tie into Wrestlemania at this point.
This makes sense but you are leaving alot of money on the table by not having a show. Plus some of their cabel deals and even WWE Networkd advertising is based off of having 12 ppv events.
I like the idea of it getting its own event but it really doesn't matter.
Thursday nights would make more sense. Nothing wrong with having a taped show as long as its good.
Divas is a brand name now. They would never do this.
Yup, Especially Khali. They only have him on because they can't find or develop an Indian talent. He gets his own tour bus and is paid $1mil a year to show up a few times a year.
I also believe that as part of their developmental program they should teach guys how to improv better.
