I think it's safe to say that Stone Cold is a memory. What the WWE needs right now is ratings and a renewal of fan interest. Assuming it's a work, I would think by now they would have brought him back to do just that.
Wrestling is really close to fading away - the shows have become pretty much a joke, and I can't remember the last time I actually sat down and watched a show with any interest. Sure, I keep tabs on what's going on, but strictly through the internet show-recaps.
Not having any competition really hurt the WWE in my opinion. The NWA-TNA has a slim chance of becoming a competitor, but from what I've seen so far, they've got a hell of a long way to go. Having NASCAR racers wrestle will not appeal to most of the disgruntled WWE fans. And midgets, while funny, are an overused gimmick which cheapens the product.
Who would've thought that Stone Cold would be gone and Hogan would be back - as a Tag-Team Champ no less! If this is the legacy that Vince McMahon envisioned for Sports Entertainment, I sure hope he likes it - because ti seems noone else does.
