10 Wrestling Clichés That Need To Die

This is less a misconception held by the fans than it is by WWE itself, whose approach to cracking the Indian market this year has been blunt, and perhaps not even that effective.

It's probably true, to be fair, that the average fan in the UK, for example, would like Neville or Drew McIntyre to receive a main event push. But would they really be any more willing to accept the notion of Gentleman Jack Gallagher becoming WWE Champion over-night than anyone else in the world?
