I've been wondering the exact same thing ever since Kenny Dykstra got his first WWE Title shot back in like what...2005 or 2006? The dude was 20 years old if I remember correctly and it had only been a few months since his debut with the Spirit Squad. I was outraged to say the least, lol. And now where is he? He's been released. Ugh....But yeah, I totally agree with your point. Gone are the days when the guys had to be with the company for several years before they even had a shot at the title. Several need to earn their keep first, as much as I love her to death, Mickie James winning the title after like 3 or 4 months was crazy. And against TRISH no less. And also as much as I admire him, CM Punk is another. I think he's great & I was happy for him big time, but these guys are really getting the title too early. And also Michelle McCool. I totally look up to her, and they could have definitely picked a worse diva to win it, but I felt that Victoria should have atleast had a SHOT at the Diva's Title. She's gone several years without a belt and she's like the only remaining original diva from when I started watching (back at the end of 2003). Wow, I must have been needing to let off some steam about that, lol. Great blog, & great points! =]

I agree with you ,the only problem is that we live in a "what have you done for me lately " world . therefore they have to push whoever they think is going to bring in the most viewers at that particular time ,no matter how long or how short they have been with the company. The one thing to keep in mind though is that the cream always rises to the top and at the end of the day the best wrestlers and performers will have the extended careers ! Keep watching I think the WWE is ready for a new golden age , and they are just trying to find the wrestlers that will be a part of it . I mean look at jeff hardy hes a young guy but I think he will be a part of this new Golden Age and the only way to find these hidden gems is to weed through the well..........WEEDS !

I partly understand, but with someone like Kozlov, obviously being the next Brock Lesnar, they can't have him losing week in and week out then all of a sudden push him as this unbeatable superstar a year or two down the line - Snitsky will never get a big push because he was made to look weak practically from week one. He'll be one to be wished the "best of luck in his future endeavours" shortly.



WWE have a pretty torrid time when the likes of RVD, Kurt Angle, Booker T, Christian, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, Bobby Lashley and probably a few others (altho I dont rate one or two of those ive just listed as a big loss) but they left over the last couple of years and WWE didnt have much left to focus the company around, especially when guys like HHH, Taker, HBK, Cena are nursing injuries. There was only guys like Orton about along with the odd few of the above, and split over two shows, the shows did look a bit weak a couple of years ago, especially for two brands, and most definately for three.



But with WWE building up CM Punk, Kozlov, Santino Marella, Rhodes and DiBiase, Cryme Tyme, Kofi Kingston, Evan Bourne, Kennedy, R-Truth, Ezekiel, Morrison and The Miz, heck the list is endless of up and coming talent, and with some of these they need to get them over with the fans before they lose interest, or they might be another Snitsky waiting to happen.



Guys like HBK, HHH, Taker, Cena, Orton, Jericho can lose so many on the trot and still come out looking strong. You want new guys to rise to the top as soon as possible, because you can only see HHH vs. Undertaker so often before getting bored, or Cena/Orton etc. There's no point in two feuding for the better part of the year like Jericho/HBK and for some calling for it to come to an end because its boring, and then because they have no-one else of the same standard to feud with, they have to repeat the same feud again.



I see what your saying, Kozlov has come out of nowhere pretty much, although If I remember he debuted just after WrestleMania and now its November. Brock Lesnar debuted the night after WrestleMania in 2002, and he won the title by Summerslam of that year, but his push was executed perfectly. But the point im making is that Kozlov has been around longer than Lesnar was when he won the title, and look how much Lesnar got over in his two years here.

As the last comment, you can ever do so much with a hand full of names... WWE is just trying to catapult ppl into stardom, pretty much the same way they did with Jhon Cena, Batista and Randy Orton, who did get titles in less than two years time from starting on the WWE. Its very annoying, really, because I've been watching Kane, who is like, one my of favs, losing week in and week out against a guy half his size and weight, regardless of how good misterio is, its so surreal to have him beat the man for months!!

And also Kozlov... man, if he wouldn't have this streak, he'd be just another from the bunch. Think about it, now, the WWE has gone for the drama and the exploting to the superstars, its like, you got a name, we live by it, promo you and take you as high as any star in the universe... and that's exactly what they're doing with these, they're building up the future of the industry with them, and true, its rushed, true, its unexpected and to a certain point dissapoinint, but trust me, four, five years ago, I didn't wanna see Jhon Cena!! I didn't give a damn about Orton, or Batista; I just wanted to see my hot Triple H, Undertaker, desperately wanted Stone Cold and the Rock back, along with Dx, and right now... those guys I didn't care about are precisely the ones I feel strange if I don't see them, even if i don't some of them (I'm a public Jhon Cena non-fanatic... don't like the guy)

And the bottom line, that's the WWE, they will always have things this way, go for a few years with some wrestlers, bring a pac, acelerate them, clean out those who don't work, and the rest make them stars. Don't believe me?? ask Cena, and how he went from a hated to a people's cahmpion in less than three months.

It was a great blog, though, and I'm glad SOMEONE is noticing these things, cause I was clearly thinking most ppl were here only to whine and cry about what they didn't lke. It's good to have some constructive criticism once in a while
