It's not even that he gets it wrong a lot of the time. The IWC does have a lot of idiosyncrasies and falsely-held beliefs (generally speaking). But he distances himself so much from it with arguments from authority that are so easily torn apart but he can't admit it.
* Ratings being down doesn't matter because Vince McMahon says ratings don't matter.
* Everyone that has ever gotten a push and been talented has worked out because the WWE doesn't do anything wrong, it has to be the talent.
* 50/50 booking is what the WWE wants because it adds drama to the product. Or something.
* Ryback sucks because if he gets over and the company can't push him wrong, then it must be his fault. Or something.
* Cesaro sucks because 50/50 booking should get him over. It's his fault. Or something.
* Fandango sucks because if he gets over and the company can't fuck it up, then it must be his fault. Or something.
* NXT is secretly Vince's baby because it just is OK.
* The product is more popular than ever. Have you heard what the WWE says about the YouTube channel.
* WWE Network can be considered a roaring success as long as it makes it into the top ten list of digital on-demand programming providers.
* Stock going down is a good thing. Relax. They made the most revenue they ever had. How much of that was profit? That's not the point.
* The WWE needed to get rid of PPVs because they need to sell the Network they have no problems selling at all guys.
That sort of shit. Plus, while he pays lip service to the idea that the product could be better, he thinks it is "good" and that people that aren't interested in it are somehow alien. This is contrast to the evidence that general interest in the product is dropping -- whether it be low television ratings, merchandise sales petering off, a lot of Network cancellations, etc.
