WWE hires models in favour of hardworking female wrestlers on the independants. Right now Mickie and Victoria are the only women that can wrestle. Why has Beth Pheonix been in OVW for so long.
How comes Gregory Helms has held the cruiserweight title for more than a year only defended like 4 times.
Why are rated RKO the tag team champions. Edge and Orton are main eventers the tag titles are like accessories to them and not championships. How comes on ppvs they always make a big turmoil tag matchs but never announce them on RAW.
How comes WWE doesn't care about these divisions and titles anymore?

You know a lot about wrestling, I like that.
The WWE has made the Tag titles completely useless since there isn't a tag division, I don't understand why they gave the title to edge and orton, maybe because they wanted dx to eventually win them? I guess that makes sense, since Cena isn't going to lose his title until Wrestlemania I guess they needed to give a title to another main eventer so why not give it to 2 guys who don't need a title to help them get over and will never defend the title anyway? I mean it isn't the biggest mistake the WWE has made, but it is one of their mistakes.
They have recently been adding new tag teams to the roster (cryme tyme, highlanders, and benjamin and hass) yet they haven't been doing much with them, and 2 of those teams are just huge gimmicks almost on the verge of just being comedy gimmicks.
On to the Cruiserweights. Vince McMahon hates wrestlers who weigh less than 220 pounds. He doesn't like that style of wrestling even though it is easily the most entertaining. He even went as far as to put a ban on moves like the shooting star press and the 450 flip must to the dismay of excellent wrestlers like Paul London and Brian Kendrick. The producers at the WWE also don't feel that they have anyone "over" enough to win the cruiserweight title from Helms, while they still end up burrying anyone who gets the slightest bit of pop in the cruiserweight category (jimmy wang yang, psychosis, Chavo) Your alternative would be to watch the X division on TNA, or go to ROHwrestling.com and buy some ring of honor dvds, they have some amazing cruiserweights on their roster (they used to have AJ Styles, Paul London, Brian Kendrick, and CM Punk for example) like Jimmy Jacobs, Matt Sydal, and my current favorite cruiserweight, Delirious. Or Wrestling Society X which will air on MTV in 2 weeks where you can also see Jimmy Jacobs and another great Cruiserweight Teddy Hart.
As far as the Women's division is concerned I've recently read that in an effort to increase ratings the WWE will be hiring more models, so don't expect any change there. If you want to see real women's wrestling there's an all women's league called SHIMMER, they're amazing, and TNA will have it's women's division soon which will be pretty good considering some of their female wrestlers actually have talent.
I know the WWE used to be good, and I know that it's hard to stop watching, but you should know that there are other great options there, I would definately suggest buying some Ring of Honor DVDs specifically Glory By Honor 5 night 2 which is definately my pick for show of the year and has my pick for match of the year on it with KENTA vs Bryan Danielson. Or get one of the Samoa Joe vs CM Punk DVDs, those are all great.

i said the same thing earlier about the women's divison. I mean they could do so much more with those divisions than they can with the heavywieght. they are relying too much on the heavywieghts and that why WWE is failing. WWE has a lot of potential of these other divsion but they are jsut there. the womens don't have any legit wrestlers to keep the value of the womens belt. The crusierweight are just forever lost. the only guy who can win is Wang. but he is the only one. Chavo is for the US. Rey is injuerd. The Tag team however is the better or the three. But knowing WWE they will mess up the tag team divison by doing something stupid

Ive been saying the same thing for awhile now. WWE has shows on Mon, Tue, (now) Thurs, and Fri, yet they are still greatly lacking in both their Tag or Diva divisions. TNA has two hours a week and can fit not only Heavyweight action, but some awesome tag matches as well as some great Knockout action. TNA even goes farther and adds some X-Division (cruiserweights) which WWE has lacked for years. Bruno would whip that @$$.

that is a very good question i'll ask someone else who may know the answer but i'll say because they just dont care because only batista and john cena matter anymore thats all that f*ckin matters to the wwe anymore and that sucks orton and edge are main eventers and maybe HHH should be champion (even tho hes hurt, i mean when he gets back) again to show the world its not about some no talent SCUM, that little valley girls think is hot!! D-X VS Rated RKO they gave rated rko those accesories for what ?? this is a total waste of time anymore i love this sh*t but its just not worth two hours of my time anymore... when someone like me can forget raw is on its sh*t truly i honestly think they need to GET BACK ON TRACK!!!! and remember whats important and by the melina can wrestle she was in a school before

WWE has always been about the big muscle bound wrestlers.I think they are starting to bring back the tag team division with all these reunions and new tag teams.I hate the women's division, they cant wrestle (but they are fit) and there is for some reason no cruierweight division.

I think they just put the not so popular people on the back burners. I know what you mean. My fav is Rey Mysterio. He is a cruiser weight too... I can't stand watching the girls though. They fight like they're scared to break a nail...they're not real women wrestlers.My opinion

The cruiserweight, women's and their tag team divisions all suck.
The only pretty diva is Torrie Wilson. The others they are not nice looking.

Money, my friend. it's all about the money and what is going to sell to the fans. the lighter weight - just as in boxing - are much more fun to watch cuz of the added quickness and agility. but it's entertainment and that is what the big boys decided...

it does care about them,you just have to remember that wwe is a business and its there to make money and at the moment they are looking to get new people to watch their shows, their main target audience is male 18-25, so apart from the hardcore wrestling fan who wants to see "proper" (if i can use that term) matches, what would those people want to see, is it not people getting hit with chairs or women running around with no tops on? as for titles, they are just props to make storylines better.

Because they're only there for the sex appeal, but they suck at wrestling. So they only do a match here and there.
