10 Traditions WWE Needs To Embrace In Order To Turn Things Around

9. Acknowledge Superstars' Lives And Training Habits

It'd be an immense help to WWE's desire to create a more realistic portrayal of their brand if they acknowledged the training habits or fight preparations that talents underwent in order to prepare to get into the ring. No, not everyone is going to be John Cena lifting weights or a crossfit fanatic like Seth Rollins or Cesaro, but giving some level of belief that the fact that these men "fight" for a living would actually be beneficial. The idea of Kevin Owens being someone who obsessively watches tape instead of lifting weights would be amazing. It'd explain his physique, and also help flesh out his "devil may care" attitude having character, too. Yes, JBL mentions "Otto Wanz's cannonball" each and every single week, but how many people really know that Wanz was a top Austrian wrestler and promoter, and Carl Ouelette, Owens' trainer Jacques Rougeau's tag partner in the Quebecers, likely picked up the move while he toured in Austria. It's the little things that make a huge difference.
