6 Problems With Having Triple H As WWE Champion

6. It€™s Just Like WCW All Over Again

In 1999 when Hogan€™s WCW run was at its most spectacularly craptastic, he was 46 years old and had been main eventing for about fifteen years (give or take a couple). The most common complaints were that it was ludicrous to believe that he could be champ when he was pushing 50, and that while he held the belt the seemingly endless resources of talent that the company had were being held down. People were sick of him, and his time at the top during WCW's horrendous last couple of years contributed massively to its downward spiral. Meanwhile over at the WWF, the entire card was absolutely packed to the brim with talent. It didn€™t matter if you were jerking the curtain, or if you were main eventing WrestleMania, you had something to do and some character that made you matter to the audience. There were definitive stars, but people could move up the ranks, which made certain title wins particularly unique €“ case in point being Mick Foley's first WWF Title victory on Raw. In 2016 WWE, we just had a 46-year-old who has been main eventing for the past seventeen years (give or take a few). Meanwhile, the actual Royal Rumble match itself was overloaded with talent that had absolutely no credible chance and had been involved in some of the most forgettable and meaningless wrestling storylines that WWE has ever produced. At the actual PPV when a younger star should get their break, the company went to the old guy. Again. Why? We know there is plenty of talent in WWE but, just like in old WCW, the talent is being ignored and neglected so that the programming can have a disproportionate focus on one poor angle that has bored audiences for the past two years. Which brings us to another point€
