I mean, he is booking the main event at the start of every show! What would happen if no one got into a confrontation or had issues to resolve!?!?! there'd be NO Main Event!!!
Cmon Teddy!! Be pro-active! Start booking your main events in advance!!!

Isn't that all GMs?
Even the RAW GM does that. So did Bischoff, Steph, etc. Apparently WWE shows depend on guys hating each other.

Yeah I always prefered when they would announce several matches ahead of time and then roll with whatever would happen. Like, Commissioner Foley would have several matches set up (usually announced on WWF.com) and then the rest would sort itself out.

I hate Teddy Long the character so much.
Teddy Long the real person? f***ing awesome.
Teddy Long the character I want to hit in the face with a pie.

Every week Teddy has to cancel the 60 minute Trent?/Hawkins match he had pencilled in as the main event due to all these 100% spontaneous feuds and confrontations. Who can blame him for being jaded about it by now?

Yeah and I want to find someone and give Teddy Long the Heart Attack. No not that cheesy one he had that Wedding, that Godfather turned up at.

this gives me the mental image of two wrestlers arguing, then agreeing to settle their differences peacfully right as Teddy's music hits.

Seriously these GM's need a performance appraisal every so often because Teddy Long's been complacent for a long time. What bothered me about Smackdown the most was the fact that Wade Barrett had to make his OWN challenge to Ezekial Jackson for Over the Limit, which wouldn't have even been a title defense if Heath didn't speak up. What does Teddy Long even do?

Teddy looks like a cool person, but as gm is pretty bad. Its the same story with him, year after year.

Apart from Stephanie, Kurt for a while, Teddy and Vickie has there been any other Smackdown GMs? How about Dusty or DiBiase Snr for a change?

There are plenty of former WWE GMs who are worst than Teddy. He decided to be pro-active and sacrificed Christian to the Viper. Booker said it was unfair to subject Christian to a title reign so soon after a grueling ladder match. Cole countered that Orton had a tough battle himself last Sunday and John Cena defended his title the next night.

Teddy Long is so lazy, he lets the WWE Universe decide for him.

Teddy Long, the genius, already has the main event booked, but he wants his show to look spontaneous. So, he tells the main eventers to go out there and pretend they hate each other, then he'll come out and tell everyone the main event. Of course, the wrestling is real.
