WWE Summer Homeruns and Strikeouts

WWE Homeruns

  • Pushing young talent to championship-level contenders
  • Edge’s soap opera-esque drama
  • Everything Santino Marella did
  • Batista vs. John Cena
  • Pushing Divas, Michelle McCool and Mickie James, to heights we haven’t seen since Trish and Lita
  • Unveiling an interesting option as RAW General Manager

WWE Strikeouts

  • Triple H vs. Khali (a bit WTF)
  • not allowing CM Punk to become a “legitimate” champion (just look at how he’s retained his championship every time)
  • Further tarnishing the once prestigious Intercontinental Championship by relegating it to low-card status (at least until very recently)
  • Pushing too many large, heel wrestlers as “monsters”
  • Not giving a damn about the ECW
  • On average, only allowing 32-37 minutes of wrestling per episode

How about insulting the tag team division by having two big names being forced to team together and eventually schooling the champions. The whole concept of team is thrown out the window for a cheap story line thus settng tag teams back to the stone age and further killing the division. I long for the day when the established tag team whips the names because they work as a team.
