Please stop confusing our marks

From 411:

WWE management has told Goldberg to stop using the Jackhammer as his finisher and just stick with the Spear. WWE’s thinking is that the Spear is over and that the Jackhammer is not needed.

“Hey Bill, we’re thinking that more than six offensive moves is too many for our fans to handle. If you could be a lamb and cut down to say, the irish whip, a punch, a kick, a clothesline, and your ‘spear’, that would be great. I guess you could use a headlock too, if you get tired. Okay? Great.”

This is a shining example of how the WWE writers/bookers/management are consistently condescending to both their fans and their wrestlers. Up until the late 1990’s, Vince McMahon never lost any money by following P.T. Barnum’s maxim, “Never underestimate the stupidity of the American people.” Now, I think, the WWE is overestimating our stupidity.
