The future of the business

Now I want to talk about the future of this company and wrestling in general.

Right now, Batista is out for 3 months with a back injury. Christian is gone. Chris Jericho is gone. Steve Austin is nowhere to be found. RVD is injured, but should be back soon. And Chris Benoit's contract expires in 2 weeks and there's no guarantee he is going to stay. And with the sudden loss of his close friend, I almost expect him to leave. And on Raw, John Cena is starting to get booed. Maybe Chavo will lose the stupid Kerwin White gimmick and just be Chavo again. God knows a lot of us want to see that now. Think of the Hispanic demographic that has lost their hero.
I just don't know. Guys like Chris Masters and Carlito are up and comers, but not ready to be main eventers.


Guerrero's last televised match was against newcomer Ken Kennedy. It was a very solid match and the credit goes to Guerrero for leading a youngster like Kennedy along. How mnay veterans are around that can bring out the positives in young, green workers like that? Not many.

Bottom line: WWE is in deep, deep trouble.
