Last year I posted the Highs and Lows of 2010 and it got pretty decent responses, so I thought I would do it again for this year. Feel free to post your ideas for other Highs and Lows to.

The Highs
The pushes and breaking out of younger talents. Dolph Ziggler, Cody Rhodes and Wade Barrett spring to mind, and this year showed real potential to be future main eventers, and with the pushes they received the WWE seems to agree.
As well as new guys being pushed, this year finally saw Christian win the big one, not once but twice. Another veteran Mark Henry also won the gold, and put on the best performances both in the ring and on the mic of his career.
The Summer of Punk returns. CM Punk spent the second half of the year on top, putting on some fantastic matches and due to his "pipebombs" has become one of the most popular guys in the whole company, even outselling Cena's merchandise.
The 2 promos the WWE have recently started to show add some excitement to the company for 2012, will Y2J return? Will Kane come back in a mask?
The Money in the Bank PPV. 2 enjoyable World title matches and 2 great ladder matches to.
The Rock returns. Some people may not like how he has taken limelight from other wrestlers, but I for one loved seeing the Great One back in the WWE.
Returns of Kevin Nash, Booker T, Trish Stratus and Mick Foley.
Some impressive divas matches. The second half of the year saw Beth and Natalya team up and bring the best out of Eve and Kelly Kelly.
The Ryder Revolution and the WWE finally listening to the fans with Zack's push.
The Punk/Cena, Orton/Christian, Rhodes/Mysterio and Rock/Cena feuds.

The Lows
Edge legitimately retires due to an injury.
The Nexus goes from one of the most exciting storylines in 2010, to Otunga and McGuillicuty on Superstars, to nothing.
The tag division is given a boost when Air Boom won the belts and defended against Swagger/Ziggler and Awesome Truth, but when Evan was suspended the WWE seemed to give up on the division again.
Wrestlemania once again disappointing the fans. A terrible main event, several throw away matches and the pointless Cole/Lawler match.
Michael Cole spending too much time putting his gimmick over instead of the wrestlers in the ring, which takes away from the matches.
Raw failing to provide wrestling and entertainment more often than not.
The treatment of several superstars including John Morrison, resulting in him leaving.
The anonymous Raw GM, as bad as it was there wasnt even any closure on it. Worse still we now have Johnny Ace as the dull and boring GM.
The Cole/JR and King, Show/Henry, Miz/Cena feuds. ]]> HeelTurn http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?40038-The-Highs-and-Lows-of-the-WWE-in-2011 http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?507-The-Highs-and-Lows-of-the-WWE-in-2010 Fri, 24 Dec 2010 12:59:42 GMT I think everyone can agree about the WWE being hit and miss this year.

They had some very enjoyable PPVs and matches, some new guys were pushed, and we had some exciting storylines. However we also had the opposite to, some things stayed the same, some talents were released for no real reason, and 3 top stars left the company. So ive decided to list what i feel were the highs and lows of the WWE in 2010.

THE HIGHS:
Bret Hart returns and makes up with HBK.
The 1st season of NXT gives the WWE a future World Champ in Wade Barrett and the american dragon, Daniel Bryan.
Michaels vs The Undertaker at Mania 26 and Shawn's farewell on Raw.
The Nexus attacks Cena and CM Punk and destroys the ring.
Swagger and the Miz are given pushes, freshening up the main event scene.
The MITB and TLC ppvs give some great matches.
The Mysterio/Punk and Miz/Bryan Sheamus/Morrison feuds.
The Divas titles are finally unified.
Alberto Del Rio debuts.
Kane has his 1st proper World Title reign and beats Undertaker at 3 straight PPVs.

THE LOWS:
HBK, MVP, Kaval, Jericho, Mickie James, Shelton all leave the WWE.
The Fatal 4 Way PPV.
The Nexus feud runs out of steam.
Michelle McCool dominates the Divas division despite the fact she is not even remotely over.
The Jack Swagger push ends and he is demoted back to the midcard.
The tag division is restored back to its pathetic self after being rebuilt and pushed in 2009.
Christian is still not a maineventer.
The Straightedge Society showed promise, but was then made into a joke and its members (except Punk) were relased.
The Bret/Vince feud. ]]> HeelTurn http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?507-The-Highs-and-Lows-of-the-WWE-in-2010
