PAUL HEYMAN'S NEW BLOG TAKES AN HONEST
LOOK AT WWE'S STALE PRODUCT AND ADVISES VINCE
McMAHON ON HOW TO REVERSE THE DOWNWARD TREND
Paul Heyman has posted a new blog, entitled AN AUDIENCE OF ONE, exclusively on THE SUN, and it's his most interesting blog to date. Paul gives an honest assessment of what he feels is the stale WWE product and offers a suggestion to WWE Chairman Vince McMahon on how to turn around World Wrestling Entertainment's dull programming.
A key excerpt:
What would it hurt for Vince to sit down with Rey Mysterio and say: "Come back to me in a week with an outline for the top three storylines all the way to Royal Rumble." How can it be bad for Vince to offer someone like The Miz, who obviously keeps his finger on the pulse of today's contemporary beat, and offer him a small bonus to come with new ideas for names, instead of this moronic, counter-productive movement to rip-off other genres like Kenny Dykstra and Dolph Diggler. Why not go out on a limb and try some creativity and unique branding so the audience can really get behind someone as their own?
Is it inconceivable that Cody Rhodes or John Morrison would have some suggestions on how to spruce up a new persona with some creative fashion designs? Once Vince gets some ideas from Rey or the Miz or whoever, then he can take these ideas to the creative team and challenge them, indeed charge them with embellishing on the new, youthful, non-traditional concepts.
The problem is that WWE, from the conception to the implementation of all ideas is in a rut because everything is based on AN AUDIENCE OF ONE.
And that "one" is Vince McMahon. Get some ideas from people who don't know what Vince likes and doesn't like and you may just get an opinion that shakes up the system.
