Sure, whatever.).It all comes down to very bad writing (which MacMahon will never admit since his daughter, Steph, is in charge) and bad business decisions (Let's hire all the guys who brought down WCW!  Brilliant, Vince!).The ratings have been dipping week-by-week, and knowing Vince, he'll blame it on the "little guys" and the new guys.  His solution will probably be to have Triple H and Undertaker squash some mid-carders.       I just read something on PW Torch which said that, 4 years ago, WCW & WWF were pulling in a combined rating around 9.  Now WWE is hovering around a 3.4.  That means that there are less than half the fans watching anymore.Vince will probably continue to cut talent (Whatever happened to Jerry Lynn and the WCW cruiserweights?) to save costs (While paying Nash to stay at home).  And we'll see Undertaker vs Triple H for the 1,000th time.  Oh, joy.</blockquote>
