The DUMBEST thing WWE does is book matches before a brand split/shake up. It usually gives away the outcomes on matches for the few weeks following. We all knew Wyatt/Hardy were winning the tag titles. We all knew Jinder & Miz weren't winning back the mid-card titles. And nether Roman nor Joe can afford a loss at the moment. It's dumb and I hate it.
Speaking of the brand split, I don't like having Graves doing both shows. Booker isn't the best, but give him the SD spot.

80% of these top guys nowadays would have wasted away in the 70-early 90’s

Dolph Ziggler hasn't stolen the show since 2016 and his entire run as a heel has been absolutely abysmal. The sooner he's off my TV, the better. Tell Peter Rosenberg and Sam Roberts to hit the bricks and give Cathy Kelley more airtime. Bobby Roode in the ring is boring, and the only reason he's as over as he is is because of his theme song. Bring Eve Torres back in some form of on-screen role when she's done having her second child. 80% of these top guys nowadays would have wasted away in the 70-early 90’s That's because they're not gassed to the gills.

I’m thinking not much character development and not being able to tell a good story, but alrighty then.

Andrade Cien Almas is boring and I don't understand the hype.
The Revival, Adam Cole, Roderick Strong, Kyle O'Reilly, Bobby Fish and Johnny Gargano don't have an ounce of personality between them.
Rusev is only cheered ironically.
I love Brock Lesnar.

NXT should be like 205 and stay grounded in NXT. The main roster is where their dreams and characters die, unless you're a good looking blonde with subpar wrestling skills.

AJ Styles is very boring as a babyface champion, and much better as a heel.

Well this is more of a NJPW opinion but Okada is severely overrated. I don’t get the hype as I just see him as NJPW’s version of Roman Reigns. He’s corporately created and it comes off that way, plus he would be much better suited as a heel.

One you learn that Santa is gimmicked, Christmas never feels the same. That can be applied to wrestling. Once that magic is removed, its harder to get lost in the mystique. Thats the beauty of the indys. We can appreciate the in ring action and stories more because we can feel their hunger for the top. WWE feels like they’ve made it, now they must mantain.

Sanity is boring. Even in NXT they sucked.
WWE needs to cut the roster down a bit. Use guys like Zack Ryder, the Revival, Sin Cara, etc correctly or just release them.
Don’t know if this is unpopular but Seth Rollins is the best and most entertaining character on the RAW roster. He should be the one to beat Lesnar for the belt.

My unpopular opinion is that Shinsuke Nakamura sucks but the more I think about, he's just the ultimate finesser.
He knew that Wrestle Kingdom 9 was going to be the first time many people watched him, so he had an incredible match with Kota Ibushi and proceeded to phone it in for the rest of his New Japan career.
Then, he knew that TakeOver: Dallas was going to be the first time many new people watched him, so he had an incredible match with Sami Zayn and proceeded to phone it in for the rest of his WWE career up to this point.
He still sucks but he knows what he's doing.

The “top” Professional Sports Wrestling Entertainment SuperStars are the ones with the Championship Title Belts.

Neither of these are gonna go over well. And both make me sound like an old man, but... I don't think all the swearing in NJPW is necessary. It's one thing when the wrestlers do it, it's understandable if the fans do it, but when you have commentators dropping f-bombs, I think it's stupid. It's only done to make themselves look edgier to teen fans. IMO it's the equivalent of Dr Evil doing the Macarena. I also hate how so many "fans" nowadays (and some wrestlers) have portrayed WWE as this evil corporation set to ruin their lives. Like it's an "us vs them" scenario. And that if they ever give WWE any credit or praise, they've somehow sold out. It's funny and yet sad that so many are into this mindset. Constantly complaining doesn't make you seem smarter to the business.
My two cents nobody asked for.

As in Josh Barnett last weekend? If so, I think that should be stricken from the record for his reaction to JR being knocked over. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the f-bomb from an announcer otherwise. Sometimes Striker and Vampiro will drop a “holy shit” on Lucha Underground.
