Does it annoy you to see so much of the roster spinning in their wheels?

Yeah, pretty much everyone not in the WWE title scene is falling into this category.
Y'know it doesn't have to be anything big, but just a LIL something for these guys would go a long way, especially considering many of them are amazingly talented they'd take what little slice of a story WWE gave them and run with it.

Ryback, Kofi, Fandango, Uso's, Real Americans, The Miz, Curtis Axel, Wade Barrett and R Truth are just some I can think of.

Cody/Sandow seems more important than the actual WHC feud.

The Shield (despite being champs), 3MB, Brodus & Tensai, Fandango, PtP, I left The Shield off because Ambrose has a match vs RVD and it seems Rollins/Reigns are defending against Show & Henry, and I mentioned Fandango, but yeah, the rest of those too. Ryback, Kofi, Fandango, Uso's, Real Americans, The Miz, Curtis Axel, Wade Barrett and R Truth are just some I can think of. Do any of them have storylines? I don't know if they're starting something between Truth/Fandango based on yesterday. I think i'd rather they were kept directionless if that's the case...

I'm so glad someone - Seth Rollins, no less - actually mentioned the glut of old has-been hollowed-out wrestlers in that promo last night.
Because he's right.

Yes. Too many guys exist just to lose, until it isn't their turn to lose anymore for a bit, then it is again.

NXT Neverending Redemption was partly so good because basically everyone was given storylines and something to do. The formation of PTP. Daren Young's crush on Tamina, and their feud with the Usos (continuity!!). Of course, the Kaitlyn/Bateman/Maxine/Curtis love square. Heck, Dirty Curty in general. Drugging and kidnapping Matt Striker (despite his appearance on RAW...or was that an imposter?).
I miss storylines.

the problem is they give everyone a run with the world title so whenever someone isn't gunning for it they have no idea what to do with them. the thought process is "Sheamus is a former world champion so he wouldn't ever care about anything else".

Hell, I'd say the only people on the roster who seem to have any sort of direction at the moment are Bryan, Orton, Wyatt, Punk, Cody, and Sandow. Everyone else is pretty much just doing whatever it is they do.

They've gotten better with it by letting Christian, Cody and Sandow have more focus. Heck, even if it is just because of Total Divas I'm glad Natalya has gotten screentime and an actual feud.
They still have way too many people among both sides of the roster not having anything though. I don't think it's Crative not knowing what to do with everybody, I think it's Vince or Kevin Dunn poo-pooing and/or flip-flopping on who else should get focused on that now the writers are too scared to bother them. Thankfully, this is something else I thing will change when Triple H takes full control.

I'm not a HHHater, but I still feel like I have to blame HHH for this. When Hunter was featured as THE MAN, he constantly rammed it down everyone's throats that nothing else in the company matters but the title, and if you're not thinking about it, chasing after it, eating/sleeping/breathing it 100% of the time, why are you even in the company. That character arc dominating the company for so long was not insignificant in destroying the value of anything else in the company.

It'd be easier to list people in WWE WITH direction. There's only a handful.

Hey, leave him alone. Jericho eventually found his way backstage, it just took him a while.
