5 ingredients missing from the New Era of the WWE

4. Too many part-timers

WWE should make part-timers put over New Era stars rather than focusing on them.

When Wrestlemania 17 and 18 came about, wrestling fans were excited about the matches on the card – Each match had a proper rivalry and weeks of intense build up.

But in the decade since then, things have changed. When fans look forward to the next Wrestlemania, they know that there are going to be matches ear-marked for several WWE legends who are part-time performers.

The Undertaker, Triple H and Brock Lesnar will all have matches and who knows, Triple H might main event once again despite not wrestling throughout the year.

This robs the main roster of the chance to showcase their skills at the ‘grand daddy of them all’ – Ever since the Rock came back to wrestle John Cena in two successive main events at ‘Mania, every year has seen at least one part-timer in the WWE main event.

This differs significantly from the olden days – Wresltemain 17 had Austin vs Rock, both in their prime, WM 18 had Jericho vs Triple H, WM 19 had Angel vs Lesnar, WM 20 had Benoit vs Michaels vs Triple H – those matches had huge buildups and physical confrontations months before the match unlike today, where they do it with promos shot at WWE studios.
