As previously reported, Triple H hired Canyon Ceman to be the new Senior Director of Talent Relations. Ceman replaces Ty Bailey and will be heading up the developmental system. Ceman is an All American volleyball player as well as a volleyball executive. Some have questioned how he can be the right guy to scout and develop talent, but WWE officials are said to be high on him and are touting his sports management knowledge.

I was all for Triple H taking over for Vince McMahon, but due to this decision I am starting to second guess it. The problem people have with Johhny Ace because of his lack of knowledge, but at least Ace knows something about wrestling. I'm unsure about what a guy who played volleyball and is a volleyball excessive knows about wrestling. If he's going to have a major role in scouting the talent, I'm not saying WWE is going to go out of business, but if this guy knows nothing, they're making the same business decisions that were detrimental to WCW. What are they going to do next hire a pizza guy to run the creative department?
The point is: people who know little to nothing about the wrestling business shouldn't be in it when it comes to handling with the talent, and there's a sizable track record that makes statement have truth and merit. Maybe I'm wrong and this will work out because this guy's been secretly a passionate wrestling fan for all his life, but most likely they hired this guy to find sex-symbols and guys who have the best looking abs and muscles. This doesn't look very promising for the revolution of the developmental system and creating new stars. If they don't want to hire people in the business, why don't they hire an ex-amateur wrestler? I mean look at how many wrestlers became success that were once amateurs and they're somewhat similar.
