With Wrestlemania 27 coming up on Sunday a question that many fans are asking is when all the smoke and lights have cleared what will WWE be left with. This Wrestlemania has crammed in so many retired and semi-retired "Attitude Era" Superstars that it has truly put the current young stars on the back burner. WWE still has not modified the company to compliment the wrestlers they have now so to me there is some doubt in my mind that the company will capitalize on their popularity of this star studded Wrestlemania. Sure they have debuts that fans (including me) are looking forward to like Sin Cara and Kong but if they only give them a good buildup for a few weeks and cast them aside then it's useless. This up incoming year WWE should really focus more on the building of the young talent. Despite what some fans think they actually have wrestlers who can be the future of the company. John Morrison has proven on many 2010 and 2011 pay per views that he is main event material and why he hasn't been in the spot light on Raw is probably due to backstage politics. I know he isn't amazing on the mic but it has been done before where magically a wrestler who isn't great on the stick has just gone out and had amazing matches and says very few words or who gets a manager who has the gift of gab. Either scenario will do just put Morrison in the main event spot. On the Smackdown front Dolph Ziggler to me should be the face of Smackdown . He took his self to another level in many peoples eyes in his Royal Rumble match with Edge for the Heavyweight title and also brought back fans to actually pick up the remote and tune into Smackdown. Ziggler is a charismatic, versatile wrestler and to top it off he has Vickie Guerrero as a manager who has gotten more heat than alot of guys in the past few years. Whether you like her or not she is getting a massive reaction from the fans whether it be cheers or boos and that is what wrestling is all about. The women's division needs to be reconstructed. They have some divas on the roster that could actually have great matches but they have been taken off T.V. Natalya, Beth Phoenix,Melina, Tamina (who would single handedly revive the women's division on Raw) and soon Kong if they played their cards right could have an epic rivalry with Beth Pheonix and dare I say main event a pay per view like Summerslam. The last but most important change is to get rid of the creative writers. There needs to be a sense of spontaneity again in wrestling. Let's face it the mic skills that The Rock, Stone Cold or The Undertaker had during the Attitude Era is not really there now that so why not push the papers aside and let the wrestlers become creative again. The wrestlers can't truly make a character if every single movement and word that comes out of their mouths are dictated by someone who isn't a wrestler and doesn't have a clue about the raw energy of being in front of a live crowd. As I don't know the future of the WWE I will definitely
be watching to see what follows Wrestlemania 27 history be made.
