We know that this past year has been built up to for quite a long time, but what would've happened if stuff like this happened in, for example, 2009.

What things?
2009 was one of the worst years in recent WWE. RAW was hot garbage and Wrestlemania sucked apart from one match

At least there's been minute amounts of hope in 2014 with a few amazing PPVs and rising stars like Bryan, Rollins, and Ambrose. What the hell was there to look forward to in 2009 after they screwed up Orton and Punk was pushed down the card after his heel turn?

Do you mean the quality of the product or all the backstage stuff that's recently come to light through some high profile interviews?

Punk vs Jeff Hardy, DX vs Legacy and Jericho vs Mysterio. And sadly all those happened at pretty much the same time. |

RAW was hot garbage and Wrestlemania sucked apart from one match Agreed, although back then at least Smackdown and ECW were there as separate brands that maintained a relatively high standard and had matches on every pay-per-view, unlike NXT today which is almost completely divorced from the main product. |

2012 was a much worse year than this
especially the summer and the introduction of Raw is 3 hours.

The only good thing about 2009 was when Christian wrestled the entire roster during his ECW Title reign because they refused to give him PPV matches.

I think what he means is the complete drought WWE is in on all levels. Financially they're kind of struggling, the roster has possibly never been as bare bones as it is right now, everything just feels so lifeless, and they're creatively bankrupt with absolutely nobody having any direction or purpose.
Like, yeah, I'd say 2009 and 2012 were worse years than this one has been but I think this one's the first one that's felt so hopeless.
