#5 The recent dip in ratings
The recent dip in ratings has made WWE panic. The recent and poorly received Wildcard Rule has definitely had low ratings play a part in its introduction.
Brock Lesnar returning at Money In The Bank and winning the briefcase will also have been a result of Vince reaction to low ratings on some level. The WWE counted on the shock factor of Lesnar being Mr. Money In The Bank as a factor that could boost ratings which it will probably do, but it will hurt the WWE, in the long run,.
#4 Brock Lesnar has the star power
You can't argue with the fact that Brock Lesnar is a draw and has a level of star power that other Superstars on the roster don't have. But here's where Vince McMahon is making his biggest mistake - Brock Lesnar didn't just show up in WWE as Brock Lesnar and had to be built up with good booking backing him.
WWE doesn't create stars any more. Instead, they rely on part-timers like Brock Lesnar and short-term returns like John Cena and Goldberg. Instead, what WWE need to do is to use this legends to cement younger stars who can take the WWE forward in the future. WWE need to stop looking back and for a change, focus on securing the future.
