obviously another AE wouldn't work but I feel another new era would , they just need to revamp the entire product and change the entire concept of it , everything just seems so predictable , I don't really mind the PG , we just need to see something that hasn't been done before


If they keep going the route they're going now , the raitings will continue to fall and enter TNA levels (which I never thought would happen)
I really don't wanna see WWE go under but damn there product is terrible now , I don't see how anyone could watch 3 hours of it , ive been a fan since 1st grade I wanna see them bounce back


What need to be done , obviously fire Dunn and the 3 hours again but what needs to be done for the entertainment

For one there are no real rivalries. Folks are basically just pretend mad at each other for 2 hours on TV and then going back to either doing selfies, tweeting or snapchatting. Bringing back kayfabe would be a start to bring mystique back which generates interest. The only "rivalry" that feels a bit authentic is Charlotte and Paige.



For the actual television product show. They can start by basing stories around the Wrestlers and less on the evil authority figures. Almost every show it opens with Triple H or Stephanie rambling for 15 minutes,_____Insert Babyface interrupts, Cuts some struggle jokes on Trips and Stephanie and then being interrupted by _______insert heel. They both talk trash and almost square off until they eventually make a predictable ass tag match. Been the same sh*t for years.

Open this show up with a beat down or some sorts.. For example, Have Reigns walking backstage only to being attacked by Del Rio and being thrown through a window or something.

Also use that first hour to showcase the high flyers and up starts so they won't get lost in the shuffle. Thats how Nitro use to do with Mysterio, Ultimo, Malenko, and the crusierweights before bringing in the top dogs like Hogan, Savage, Luger, Sting and others.

Don't get me wrong there's definitely room for improvement to make the product 10x better but i don't expect all those fans who can't suspend their belief anymore to start watching again.

BUT with that being said, gotta watch more than WWE breh. LU, NJPW both piff..can't comment on ROH and TNA since i don't watch it much

It needs to be more unpredictable while still putting on great matches(remember how big Taker losing his streak was?), get the crowd more involved(somehow),cruiser-weight division, bring back kayfabe, and more than one big time superstars(John Cena) with a lot of charisma and a gimmick that will age well(if he has one), rarely any overlap between raw and smackdown, WWE draft(it was fun), bring back the smackdown fist.

Stop sucking so much.

This, there have multiple times in the last few years where the WWE had a chance to make some waves but they killed it with their own ineptitude. I never thought I would stop watching the WWE, but the show is so bland now the only way I know what's going on is because of TSC. I was a hardcore fan for years and I stopped watching, so I know casual fans have tuned out.

At this point they've done so much damage to the brand and alienated so many long time fans that I don't think there's anything they can do at this point to save their sinking ratings yet alone produce a boom period.

MY plan if I was in charge of WWE.

  • No more promo scripts, go out or do solo promos free. Sink or swim fakkit.
  • No more authority/gm/boss bullshyt
  • Make heels actually heel it up, actual cheating.
  • Stop catering to kids.
  • Drop people who suck faster like big show and kane. Them dudes 70 year old get off the damn tv.
  • Try not to force feed everyone.
  • More managers.
