There are no doubt some people who have "it" and will rise no matter how terrible of a spot they are in with guys like Austin and the Rock as great examples.

But it's pretty easy to kill a guy's heat and make him a jobber very quickly and build him back up whenenver you see fit (see Cesaro).

The WWE can totally control how much money they can make off of almost each of these guys. Hell even PTP was selling merch when they were used right.

In a business where sometimes no matter what you do the powers that be have 0 interest in seeing you succede (Ryder, Sandow) what are those guys supposed to do? Sure they can be replaced and ultimately that is what WWE has done from the beginning. But I think there is a lot of legitimacy to the idea that it's bullshit, especially now with nowhere else for them to really go and make as good of a living.

In the end it's a conversation worth having, as times change and we expect more is it ok for WWE to play with these guys like this, provide no insurance and not really take care of anyone except a few select people while pushing them in a business where they never see their family, are constantly hurt and at a giant risk for long term damage?
