It seems as though WWE is able to use some older wrestlers during WrestleMania season, but they do a poor job of incorporating them in major storylines. Remember how inconsistent Big Show was booked in the fall season? They turned him babyface without really doing a turn, then they had him disrupt a PPV main event between Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan as a way to lead into Show vs. Orton at Survivor Series, which was a complete mess. All of it looked like it was leading to Show vs. Triple H, but instead the whole thing was dropped because they realized the crowd didn't care. Mark Henry is not being used right as a babyface. The reason he became a main eventer was because he was a great heel. Sticking him out there as a smiling babyface is a waste of his talent. He only has a couple of years left. Use him right or don't use him at all. Chris Jericho did an interview recently saying he'd love to come back to WWE if there's the proper storyline in place. Good luck with that, Chris. It doesn't seem like WWE cares too much about the veterans that can still go. It's understandable that they want to have the young guys in more featured roles, but they have to find a way to use the older guys too.
