Easily the Invasion. Unlike these other things, it actually led to lost revenue and the rapid deterioration of half the wrestling fanbase. After it was finished, so too was the wrestling boom.

So no, while Riley was not ready for the big time push they gave him, there was absolutely no real reason to take him off TV entirely. Why he can't be making semi-regular appearances on TV, even in just a jobber role. Other low carders get these little moments every now and then, but he doesn't. He's made massive improvements and has stayed over for all this time. WWE screwed him up by turning the last two years of his career into this massive what if. I remember on NXT redemption he was getting HUGE pops and this was a long time after he had even been on the main shows. He teamed with Justin Gabriel a few times on NXT, I would have love to of seen more of that team.

ecw re-launch. yes it might have been unfair to expect the old ecw, but a low quality C show featuring one guy and jobbers? honestly how much different is it from Main Event now? it was toleatable up until about spring 07

I don't see how some of these were screw ups. Some of the things they can't really control and others didn't end up badly at all.
I went with Nexus, it could have been huge to get several of those guys over, and it didn't.

CM Punk/Nash/HHH feud - This was so stupid, I can only view it as intentional sabotage by HHH
Mr. Kennedy never getting the title - This was a blessing, not a screw-up
Firing JR - The WWE's ill-treatment of Jim Ross in general has seemed pathological at times Making Micael Cole voice of the WWE/Jerry Lawler on commentary - Having them on commentary isn't the problem. Shoehorning them into uncomfortable roles is. Lawler is best as a heel. Cole is best as a face announcer. They've corrected on of these problems.
