4. Over-Reliance On Part-Time Wrestlers As Top Draws
It makes sense for wrestling companies to always stay focused on the future. With the risk of injury always looming ahead and careers in general not lasting Undertaker lengths, wrestling promotions have to test their younger stars as much as possible to see which ones can become long-term stars. It's baffling that part-timers and special attractions are consistently given better billing than members of the full-time WWE roster. Even as recently as Survivor Series, emphasis was put on veterans Kane and the Undertaker more than the younger participants in the WWEWHC tournament. And at SummerSlam this year, it was the match between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker, a special attraction and a legend approaching retirement, which received top billing on the card. As long as the perception that the current generation is less important than legends of yesteryear persists, and current stars aren't given main event opportunities, WWE wont be able to grow. WWE must break this trend of over-relying on the stars of the past and concentrate their efforts more on making todays stars the legends of tomorrow. Then, when the current crop or in the position of an Undertaker or a Triple H, they can help put over the next generation, too.
