Every show , you should be trying to pull in casual fans. You have 3 hours of the every week, you have time to do something outrageous for the you tube crowd. Maybe you sell more shirts or get somebody to go to a live event.
I don't like Orange Cassidy, but I occasionally see him on my Facebook feed being posted by casuals.
Oh and I want to reply to why Morgan has to be Lana's lover to fit in this angle. Lana has so much heat, that there needs to be somebody to punch her in the mouth. So who would get mad at Lana for dogging out Rusev. Only a family member or a friend. Rusev doesn't have any relationship like that established on TV yet.
So you can't have a heated physical rivalry based on that.
Now you can go with Lashley having an ex girlfriend wanting to whoop Lana for stealing her man, but that doesn't have much heat, because we are not invested in that relationship. We like Rusev and Lana together, so anybody breaking them up is a jerk for doing it.
Now that leaves Lana having a lesbian/bi lover that she spurned for Lashley.
That's a whole new seperate feud. It establishes Lana as a manipulator. Since Bobby didn't know, it plants seeds for him to leave Lana eventually.
So now you have a person in Liv, who the crowd will cheer when she beats the crap out of Lana. Liv is at the bottom of the card, so you are not taking away a serious competitor to work in the soap opera angle.If Liv gets some buzz, then you can move her up later.
So, how long until Wrestle Kingdom starts?
