Bray’s got the upper hand over the guy they’re positioning as the face of the company this year and beat Brock twice this year including clean as a sheet a couple of months ago. Why aren’t more people convinced that Seth retains? Because The Fiend is a new character with some momentum? This is WWE guys.

I’m baffled at how underplayed it’s been that a wrestler spat at a fan. That’s assault by law and fucking disgusting. Yet there doesn’t seem to be any backlash at all for Mandy to be fired over it. Exchanging unflattering remarks is one thing, spitting at a fan is a whole other level.

Why on earth do they think that announcing supposed must see matches during the show is the solution to people not tuning in. It’s a solution to losing people during the show but if stuff like that is to have any impact you have to promote it at the very least the day before. Which I know is impossible because they don’t know what’s on the show the day before and that’s the most tell tale sign of it. Or better yet, when they announce something on Raw for SD and it just never happens. Not that announcing a WWE Title match would get people back. It’s hilarious watching them try all these things while constantly ignoring that the actual problem is a systemic cultural issue that has driven people away. It’s not the wrestlers or the matches, it’s all on the presentation of the show and the writing. If Ronda and Brock and even when Cena came back at the start of the year don’t turn things around in an instant then it’s clear the issue isn’t star power related. And the worrying thing for us is that they refuse to acknowledge their “playbook” is the issue and the worrying for them is they know there’s no quick fix for that which allows them to continue presenting the show the way their internal culture aspires to.
