Way too many belts and bloated main roster.
Also WWE now leans very heavily towards hours watched instead of quality content to measure success on the Network and social media. Its why they have the #1 channel on Youtube for videos since they pump out a lot daily regardless of quality. |

They can't really have 18 or 19 matches right? That is insane. That would be 4 to 5 more matches then last year. Holy Cow

WrestleMania really should be a two-day event at this point. You don’t need to do the Hall of Fame anymore, and they’re clearly reaching for names. You can do two four-hour shows and that’s more content overall for the Network.

You could run a Raw one and a SmackDown one. The cards for this year could have been:
* Ronda vs. Becky * Brock vs. Seth * Triple H vs. Batista * Roman vs. Drew * Kurt Angle vs. Chad Gable * Sasha & Bayley vs. Nattie & Beth * Lashley vs. Balor * Braun vs. Corbin * Revival vs. Black & Ricochet * Cruiserweight Title * Bryan vs. Kofi * Asuka vs. Charlotte * Orton vs. Styles * Cena vs. Joe * Shane vs. Miz * Rey vs. Andrade * Owens & Zayn vs. Nakamura & Rusev * Sasha & Bayley vs. Sky Pirates * Usos vs. Hardys * The Bar vs. New Day |

I miss when they could easily get most of the roster on a 3 hr POV and all featured talent would get 4 weeks of promos and matches that lead up to the big show. Too much tv, too many shows, too many wrestlers. Thankfully we get this ideal booking with NJPW and I’m hoping AEW keeps it simple for me as well.

Per today's Wrestling Observer 16 matches currently planned but more expected as WWE is still deciding what to to do with Balor, Lashley, Kevin Owens, Mustafa Ali & The Raw Tag Titles.

I figured they’d scrap the Women’s Battle Royal given Charlotte, Becky, Rhonda, Bayley, Sasha, Tamina, Nia, Beth, Natalya, The IIconics (maybe), Asuka, Mandy and (maybe) Sonia in matches already.

They’ve got so many plates spinning at the minute.
Usos, Hardys, Andrade, The Bar, Roode & Gable, Lashley, Balor, EC3, Heavy Machinery, Mojo, Ricochet/Black, Rusev/Nakamura, Kevin Owens all with varying degrees of focus on them and nothing set up at Mania. They should say “fuck it, let’s make the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal for both sets of Tag Titles to commemorate the 19th anniversary of The Colossal Connection’s Tag Title run” The Revival (c) The Usos (c) The Bar Hardy Boyz Ricochet/Black Heavy Machinery The Ascension Ryder & Hawkins Rusev & Nakamura Gallows & Anderson Sanity Slater & Rhyno The B Team Roode & Gable Owens & Zayn Do a thing with Strowman being told he’s out of the match as he doesn’t have a partner, throw a fit backstage the guys from SNL, only for him to turn around and there’s Nicholas. That’s 16 teams, if you want more you can add some cruisers as teams. |

I can count 13 women that probably aren’t scheduled for a match
Alicia Fox (who might be taking time off) Carmella Dana Brooke Lacey Evans Lana Liv Morgan Maria Mickie James Naomi Nikki Cross Ruby Riot Sarah Logan Zelina Vega That’s a lot of spots for NXT to fill. |

Didn't expect a negative reaction to Corbin?
I think wwe officials still think that dumbass from Empire hate crime was legit Ha! |

the bit about not wanting to end WM with becky winning on a high feel good note and Cena getting a match make it painful obvious theyre going with Angle Corbin in a squash and then a Cena surprise to pop the crowd and Kurt winning feel good moment.
the only reason Im not entirely pissed off is because its kurt angles last match, but fuckin Ric Flair didnt even get that treatment with HBK. |

Andrade vs. Rey in an apuestas match at Wrestlemania would be fucking great, unfortunately you're not going to do that without Rey taking off his mask permanently, losing all that merch money, and then realizing that he still looks 12 under the mask.

his 19ish year old son is bigger than he is, the fact he looks 12 is irrelevant

They’ve got an “out” with it; New Day haven’t been explicit in the way they’ve spoken about “people like us”.

If I were them I wouldn't want 3rd party new orgs picking up the story of "First Black WWE Champion" and diving in to the racist history of the WWE/WWF.

Seems another talent from NXT has asked for a release according to Fightful and Squared Circle Sirens.

It's a shame because he is a special talent but obviously not meant to be in the ring.

Dutch Mantell, Brian Pillman and Brock Lesnar are also three guys that weren’t fans but became great.

Tbf, Pillman/Brock were both football players, right? Used to taking heavy hits, and probably had a concussion or two under their belt. Ervin was a gymnast.

Dude may not have had business being in the ring, but I don’t think being a fan nor him being a gymnast dictates that.
