VINCE can't. Believe it or not the problems in the WWE are not actually Vince's fault. Yeah, the storylines are recycled ad nauseum but the real problem is the fans' unwillingness to just...move...on. They sit around pining for The Rock, Austin, Jericho, the Attitude Era, the "good old days" rather than accept that as the past and pick somebody NOW to support. They sit around judging everybody the WWE is pushing as "he sucks! Where's The Rock?" Which, in turn, causes the WWE to pull them back before they can get established, and push somebody else. Fans sit around, digging through dirt sheets, trying to find some little scrap of a tidbit that MIGHT indicate that Austin, Rock, Lesnar, Goldberg, ANYBODY from the past MIGHT be coming back to the WWE for at least a little while. Meanwhile the WWE is spending lots of money developing new performers to entertain us. And we are basically ignoring them, looking past them to see if The Rock or Stone Cold is lurking somewhere in the background.
Vince is not helping that problem by returning to the past to pay truckloads of money to get The Rock or Lesnar or somebody from the past to make a couple of appearances. An appearance from a Rock or a Lesnar should be a special treat for the fans, not something the WWE has to rely on to pay the bills because the fans are ignoring the current roster.
For far too long Vince has had it his way. HE directs who gets pushed, HE tells us who to support, HE dictates how much of our time we will give to the WWE. The fans need to change that and take some control over how the WWE is produced. Don't like a performer? Don't make a sound; don't boo, don't cheer, just be silent. Don't like a storyline? Change the channel; check back later when a different segment is on. Don't like the 3-hour RAWs? Don't watch the first hour or don't watch the third hour. Don't like 400 WWE shows on TV every week? Just watch the ones you want to watch; nobody is obligated to watch every WWE show on TV. The ratings (for every 15-minute block of WWE TV) will tell Vince what he's doing "right" and what he's doing "wrong". A large number of fans have taken the initiative to just say "NO!" by changing the channel or not watching at all. The ratings have dropped significantly and Vince is making SOME changes. But it's not enough. We need to affect what happens in the WWE by changing the channel when something is on we don't like. If the ratings don't drop, no amount of complaining will change the WWE.
And we have to move on. The past is the past. We need to pick from the current roster the performers we will support and are willing to spend money on. And we need to look at an occasional appearance from Stone Cold or The Rock as a bonus, not a condition to keep watching the WWE.

The WWE is never going back to the way it used to be. Even though they would get a lot more views and way better ratings, it is never going back. WWE fans can't keep looking at the past and they need to start looking into the present and future.
I admit that WWE now is just crap and total stupidity. Everything is scripted and it just sucks. And it's pg because kids like wrestling too and if they make it to bloody and things like that, the kids won't be watching it anymore and because the kids won't the parents won't either.
But honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if the WWE goes out of business within the next decade.
YOLO

Vince McMahon does not have his finger on the pulse of the business like he did in the classic era, attitude era, and ruthless aggression era. He has become out of touch with the audience. Leprechauns, Khali kiss cams, a hit and run on "SANTAAA", Dolph Zigglers constant jobbing, AJ/Cena/Vickie Guerrero soap opera, Daniel Bryan losing in 18 seconds, Fandango, Brodus Clay, Team Hell No hugging for 5minutes straight in the ring, Natalya farting, Santinos cobra... He doesn't know what to do with the product. Without competition he has no need to push himself. After taking a stronger roll in the developmental and creative team, Triple H has brought in an influx of new talent fron the developmental (ex seth rollins, roman reigns, dean ambrose, big e, etc), he has worked on legitimizing the intercontinental title, he is revamping/revitalizing the focus on the tagteam division.. If anyone, we need to count on Triple H for a new years revolution. Its reported that he and his father in law Vince but heads on things like Randy Orton turning heel and etc. while Triple H is legitimately trying to return WWE into the good graces of its former glory, the fact is Vince McMahon is the last say so and micromanaging force of the WWE

Vince can, but I doubt he will
All he would have to do is simply drop the PG Rating and go back to the edgy and extreme ways of the attitude era and I'm sure the ratings would shoot right back up!

It's going to be very hard.
But if vince want it, he can make it like before.
Problem is, he don't want to do it.
he just want to make a new wwe.
