Now I know people will say that the WWE has Dusty Rhodes and Michael Hayes on the creative team in some capacity but both guys are old, tired and clearly don't know what appeals to the fans anymore. recently retired guys like Lance Storm and Dean Malenko, and even guys like Jamie Noble (note I'm not aiming to high, guys like HHH, HBK and even 'Taker are likely to have too much of a political ass licking stance with Vince) could all add a more realistic and modern perspective to the product and in the process they could point out great big glaring errors that are forever made by the unknowledgable creative members and even more shockingly the uncaring promoters of today. Even getting a few current wrestlers (aside from HHH, HBK and Taker as mentioned) a guy like Jericho has a great understanding of both the business and the fans expectations which is why he's so over with the IWC and why he has such heat with live crowds.
On the promoters front, Heyman has to be the greatest Booker of them all, he's got more of a sense of what the pople want than Vince McMahon and he has more care and respect for the business than Hogan and Bischoff. He fails epicly hard as a business man though but more to the point... Being a great mind and having love for the business has made Heyman awesome as a booker/screenwriter of great Wrestling TV. When he wrote for SD! he made it the best show in the WWE by far and he broguht real excitement to it by pushing simple mid carders and turning them into stars. If it wasn't for Stephanie McMahon he'd probably still have a job with the WWE as well and I know for a fact that what ever show he would be writing for now would be far better than the current product. IF Heyman could ever be enticed back into pro wrestling by TNA or the WWE then the respective show would have a lot more direction IMO.

Thank God for small miracles.
Other than that, I lol'd a few times over the state that TNA is in (based on that link above) since Hogan and co. arrived. I'm not sure why TNA management never realised that his charisma is the only good thing Hogan ever had, and hasn't got a spot of talent for wrestling in any other capacity?

TNA didn't bring Hogan in to for him to be in control though, tbh, Hogan is there because his image alone has people interested. The real score for TNA is Bischoff, or at least that is what they thought but no one told them about the death of WCW it seems.
To be perfectly honest, TNA would have been better off simply using all that money they've thrown at Hogan and "Easy E" to hire Heyman. Yes I know I'm riding him real bad at the minute, lol, but Heyman would have TNA in such as stronger position right now in terms of direction and future potential... as long as Dixie kept a hold of the money that is, lol.

The best booker/writer was so obviously Chris Kreski, and was the best probably that we'll ever see. He basically mixed the great wrestling of Heyman with the great story of a leashed Vince Russo and put together some of the best stuff in WWE (then WWF) history.
I don't know if Heyman is the best booker today. I don't actually follow so much wrestling anymore, so I wouldn't know that well any of the recent ones.

Bottom line Tara is undervalued!
This might actually be it for her Wrestling career as a full time wrestler, she originally wanted to do some MMA, so maybe she'll actually get round to doing more of that now.

Having said that, I'm with Chikara, as far as I care as long as the show is entertaining then I personally don't care for the ratings. Though I do admit that they are interesting to read about and look into.
