No faces? No heels? Welcome to Mcmahon's world of pro wrestling

For what it’s worth, at a recent meeting, Vince McMahon said there are no more babyfaces and heels. Vince has for years pushed no strong delineation because of the belief that in real life, nobody is completely good or completely bad.

janine butcher is!

Bleacher is full of poor writers (hiya!) but Sharon Glencross is the worst.

I can think of at least one writer who is worse.

So McMahon is going to to take WWE along the TNA character development route? Interesting...

I don't know if he's noticed but pro wrestling isn't the real world.

Okay, everyone knows it isn't "real", but you still need some well-defined characters in order to create interesting / believeable storylines IMO.

After all, plenty of people still like pantomimes and soap operas (and half the stuff that happens in the latter is pretty pantomime-y at best).

He has a point that people generally aren't 100% good or bad in real life and there's no reason pro wrestling characters can't be the same...but they need to lean one way or the other, enough to have a workable persona.

Well, thats my 2 cents' worth anyway...
