5 Things I want from the WWE in 2012

In no particular order

1.  Keep Building the Tag Team Division
They have made strides lately with Air Boom and the team of Epico/Primo.  However the Tag Team division is still lacking.  There is so much young talent in the WWE right now that goes unused.  Tag Teams would be a great way to use them and give them proper TV time.  Tag Teams are a great way to build up young talent before giving them a singles push. 

2. Bring Back the Cruiserweight/Light Heavyweight Championship
This is another way to get some of the younger talent involved in something.  Plus some of the most exciting matches ever have happened with the small guys.  Give these guys a chance to show what they can do.

3. Bring Back the Manager
Vicki Guerrero is the only true manager in the WWE today.  I consider Rosa Mendes as more of a Valet for the tag team of Epico and Primo.  Some guys are great wrestlers but simply can not get it done on the mic.  Give some of these guys a manager and let them do the talking for them.  I am not really a fan of Vicki, but she is good at what she does.  She is a Heel manager and she can get heat faster than just about anyone else.  She is perfect in her current role.  She is the only reason the Jack Swagger is staying somewhat relevant.

4. Improve the Divas Division
I think this would first start with the removal of that God awful looking championship belt that Beth currently has.  The Divas belt is ugly.  I don't care if they go back to the Women's Championship or just redesign the current belt.  Change it.  
Bring in some legit wrestlers.  Some of the current Divas simply suck in the ring.  Some of them are improving but still cant get it done.  We have gone from a once great era or Women's wrestling to a Divas division that is a joke.

5. Legit Title Runs
Based on the numbers it looks like there were 8 or 9 WWE Champions in 2011 and the same number of World Heavyweight Champions.  All the constant title changes are doing is devaluing the titles.  It seems that with Mark Henrys recent run that things are changing.  He would still be holding the belt if he would not have got hurt.
They have stabilized the mid-card titles as well, with Cody Rhodes holding the IC title for a while.  Ziggler held the US title for a while, which helped make him a legit Main Event contender.  
Hopefully they can keep up the current trend and continue that into the new year.
