Vince & Steph + the Hollywood drop out writers are the sole reason for the atrocious booking that has been endemic since 2001.

Sole reason? Nah, sheer complacency is a larger culprit.

False.
One of the reasons, sure, but not the sole one.

I wouldn't say since 2001. There was a time when they got people up the card. It doesn't really happen now, even Ryback, who they want up the card, his push up is kind FUBAR'd.

2/3s False. Only one person gets blame for the writing, IMO and that is Vince. He has final say and too many people have said he kills things he doesn't get, orders re-writes at any point in the day or night and changes his mind more than the wind changes direction.

going by Patrice O'Neal it sounds like it would be hell to write for WWE. But I always wondered why they didn't hire proven fans to do the writing. I don' like Sci-Fi and have never seen one movie that takes place in space unless it was a family movie like Flight of the Navigator (And I'm having trouble thinking of any others to be honest). So I would never apply to write for Star Trek or something and I don't think I'd be hired if I did. It blows my mind how the writers think they can put words in the mouths of people without really knowing who they are. It would be like me writing lines for Captain Kirk. I have no clue how he talks or what sort of things he believes in. I liked it better when guys talked for themselves. Seemed more believable.

This, and what JR $lim said are the big two I think. Vince seems to either be losing touch with reality, or just doesn't know what he wants anymore and the "Because we can" attitude that seems to come off from Raw sometimes proves how lack of competition really drags everything down.

Shawn Michaels was telling Vince in 1995, as a 50 year old man, that he was out of touch. Vince was in-touch maybe 1984-1990.
