HHH:"We're Not Sure how to Fix the Product"

“We just have to become more disciplined and more Creative with how we do things, and how we operate the shows,” Hunter said. “We’ve had some unfortunate situations with injuries and everything else. It’s on us to be more creative and come up with a better format; a better show. We hear people’s frustrations and in a lot of ways feel the same way. It’s fixing it. And, trying to fix it. It is what it is. How we fix it, we’re not 100 percent sure yet. But, we will get there. Trust me"

And he wants to fix it. But it's scary how clueless they seem, though.

They should show more of the tit. That's how they rose from the ashes to defeat WCW.

eh, he seems to be blaming the injuries more than anything. They were having serious problems before Rollins & Cesaro were injured.

I get what he is saying. He knows the format and how things are being done is not working but changing that is easier said than done, especially when you have no power.

More HHH is always the correct answer

The whole "showing more of the tit" bit is something where Turner was semi right however. Or at least it was an ingredient that was part of WWF's appeal. More important I think is that WWF for once ever really went after that white trashy, blue collar demo. In the 80s I think they had universally appealing stars that appealed to that demo anyway (a lot of those guys had regional runs before they were in WWF). Right now I'm not sure who WWE is trying to appeal to. The talent signings, the booking, everything has very limited appeal.

Here's a wild idea. Listen to the crowds and book accordingly.

Well, he is part of the booking team and he has a lot of power even if Vince runs everything. 

Format is one thing but their booking and writing is terrible. If they could only be better at this, then the product would get better.

It's more fixable than they think but they are so much into their own shit that they cannot see what they are doing wrong.

In that entire interview Triple H basically said "I only do NXT and NXT works, I don't do the main roster so it not working is confusing."

The fact he is acknowledging the problem pubically is amazing but he's not going to flat out bury the company and Vince in public. I wouldn't be surprised if he hates the product more then the most negative fan here because at least he has the potential of running the show and his huge given success in NXT which seems to be the only thing growing within the company.

A good way to start would be to stop overscripting everything and let these guys come off as real people instead of these cliche, pun filled caricatures of people.

I do like how he's not too subtly saying, "Hey, don't blame me, it's Vince's fault!"

I even hear the respective intro songs when seeing the different logos. The relentless rawk of the original, and that awful techno-rock, Smackdown Mall sounding music they had in the waning years.

What do the crowds want? What about the fact that different crowds want wildly different things?
