The kids love Cena, Lashley and Batista, so their parents are buying the merch. So they are listening to what the fans want, just not the kind of fans that we are.

I have another theory. I think that the fans dont quite know what the want sometimes. People like to flip flop on a regular basis Thats what we have Vince for, to tell us what we want, so we dont flip-flop

If he does, I'd assume it's as boring and mediocre as he is. In any case, I don't hear the kids cheering for Lashley much. He gets mid-level babyface heat.

1) we aren't THE fans. We're a small portion of the fanbase, the most difficult to please and the less mainstream-friendly.
2) WWE do listen to the fans. That's the reason we had D-X reunion #532, Hogan's last match #1673 and so on. The fact Stevie Richards isn't WWE Champion or we don't have 30 minutes chain-wrestling clinics doesn't mean WWE don't listen. They focun on what could 'possibly' generate more money
3) Fans are fickle. A guy can be over today and stopping being over after a month for no real reason. Of course that'd not happen with more compelling storylines, more interesting Superstars and so on... but that's another story for another day

the whole current mr. mcmahon character who tells the fans what they like is sadly true. it's like with cena...1 year ago he was getting booed out of every arena he was in. what do they do? they cram him down the public's throats even more until they just give in. the people who did boo him have either moved on and quit watching or they caved in and went with mcmahon's vision.
the sad thing is the viewers allow this to happen. they don't have to, but they do it anyways and that's why things are like they are right now.

Fans cheer winners in every sport fake or not. Cena never loses. Tommy Dreamer. You're welcome.
