Last year, you had Liv's rise to the main event, the Judgment Day splitting up, Solo taking over the Bloodline, Jacob's debut, Punk/Seth, Nia and Tiffany as partners (which was Tiffany at her most entertaining), Chelsea's antics, New Day turning on Big E, Bronson killing Seth, Kevin Owens becoming a psycho heel again. Samantha still had a job there. RAW was structured way better because it was still on TV. There was a lot of good stuff that they dropped the ball on this year. That's why the Netflix debut and WrestleMania were so disappointing, because they could have and should have been all-time events worth talking about years from now.
JD never split, Rhea & Priest just left.
Nia & Tiffany was entertaining to who exactly?
The New Day stuff doesn't even count since they did absolutely nothing with them for weeks after it happened.
I'll give you Liv she & Dom excelled as the white trash waffle house parking lot brawling couple.
Bloodline 2.0 never really felt solid imo.
Nothing Bronson does outside of taking Roman's shoes(the first time) is interesting.
Chelsea is great character wrestler.
nikka when did triple h try making Roman the top babyface


Answer that. Nothing in Roman personality has changed in the last three to four years
The moment they made him team with Cody, it made no sense and was just a way to keep boring ass Cody around the Bloodline.

It can happen

I don’t think they’re a lot of respectable opponents lined up to wrestle her she could fall into that Tiffany Stratton situation

The only thing I can think of is having Rhea vs Stephanie asap and doing a series of matches

Chelsea is great character wrestler.

1. You know what I mean. It actually made SummerSlam interesting because they set it up months ago and paid it off in a way that made everyone feel important. That was the most over Damian's been in his whole career.

2. It was a great dynamic, having Nia as the dominant champion and Tiffany as her pet. Earlier today, I realized that Tiffany works best as a supporting character or a co-lead. When they gave her the title, they made her the main character and she doesn't work in that position. She's the annoying little sister, the cheerleader. Being with Nia allowed her to play into that and hid how green she was.

3. Anything they did afterwards doesn't make the turn itself terrible. The segment was fantastic and had a great twist. "Yeah, you broke your neck. So, what?" was a quotable moment. It's on Triple H to keep the momentum rolling and he didn't, but I'm not going to dock points off the initial turn because it ended up not paying off.

4. They wasted the potential of that storyline. Roman/Solo should have been at WrestleMania. Jacob's face turn should have come later. They rushed everything for that corny Netflix premiere and left everyone with no direction coming out of it.

5. I agree, but once again, that initial segment was fantastic. It immediately made me take him seriously when I barely knew who he was. Him getting injured at Survivor Series killed the momentum he was building up, and when he came back, they made him the number three to a guy he tried to put in the grave. Their explanation was bullshyt and it stepped on everything Bronson was supposed to be last year. Like Cody said, "THEY'RE GOONS."

Oh hell no, If Roman was going to have a singles match at Mania then it needed to be against Jacob.

As for the New Day, The reason I said you can't count them is because the booking afterwards showed that it was just another shock moment. Them getting hoed out by the locker room for weeks and not wrestling proved that HHH had no real plans for them.

The only story I can think of right now is Asuka/Iyo which has been good, very entertaining. Cody doesn't have a story. Rollins doesn't have a story. Rhea is just involved in other people's shyt. Vaquer doesn't have a story. Brock disappeared again. Cena is retiring and doesn't have a story. Punk doesn't have a story.

If you want to count Roman and the Usos circling the drain on shyt they've already done that could count as a story but is Roman sticking around?

Well crown jewel was an improvement on wrestlepalooza though that’s a low bar.

Cena/AJ was the main highlight glad they delivered.

Couldn’t fully get into the Seth/Cody match because of how obvious Seth winning was.

Also surprised Tiffany and Stephanie only got around 10 mins, do they not trust Tiffany to go for longer or am I looking too deep into things?

Did you see how much Stephanie outclassed Tiffany? Despite it being a heatless match that didn't warrant going longer, those 10mins showed just how mediocre botchy time really is.

Yeah Tiffany still needs to improve in the ring which wouldn’t be much of an issue but she’s been world champ all year. Triple k put that belt on her too soon, this reign has just exposed her shortcomings
