Some of that is because they don't have a choice, a ton of the guys getting into wrestling now grew up as big fans of the Benoits, Guerreros, Shawn Michaels etc etc so they all want to work styles like that.
The work itself isn't the problem, they just give us no reason to give a shit, no matter how good your work is without a hook people don't care.
