WWE has turned into a corporate meat grinder.

They go thru talent and personnel like a Fortune 100 company and it is beginning to show in their on screen product.

NXT has been a blessing and a curse.

They have some amazing talent but they get lost in the sauce upon reaching main roster.

tbh NXT kinda ass too. They got talent but the show is seriously skippable without missing anything major. The random TNA talent dont do much for me.

Halfway through the year ima give Hunter a C. From January to about June it was very mediocre but post MITB it’s been better.

RAW has been consistently good tho but Smackdown is one of the worst wrestling shows on tv

C is a good grade

Raw has always been decent to me so I’m good with Raw

Smack down? Eh, it’s been better since moving to 2 hours but that horrid episode we remember a few weeks ago and I didn’t even watch last weeks show. It has to get better

Yeah HHH/creative gone have to figure out something on how to fix Smackdown because that show isn't worth watching from week to week. I usually catch about the first 30 - 45 mins (maybe a hr tops) before I turn it off.
 
Triple H run as creative been good for me honestly until January. Cracks started showing around Rumble time and it’s been gradually worsening. Granted it’s no where near the depths of Vince during the 2010’s… it’s just you can tell things could be better where tweaks here and there. Bringing in stars from NXT and not doing shit with them. Bringing back stars that honestly didn’t have to come back (Alester Black, Rusev). Raw as a brand and show has been good since the Netflix era started with some hiccups. Smackdown has gotten better since the move back to two hours. I think things should get back on track. The next few months leading to Mania season will be very interesting especially with Cenas retirement coming.

C+ right now. At its peak (mid 2024) it was a B+.

I’ve tried to get into NXT as a show and I just can’t. I feel like I missed the golden era of that brand. Other than a few select wrestlers I know should be major stars when they get called up I don’t pay attention to it that much.

it lost what made it special plus with AEW coming in the talent pool became dried up quick and stayed that way so it lost the addition of these major names outside of WWE finally crossing over and bringing hype with them like KO, Naka, Sammy, Joe, Killer Kross, Ricochet, Adam Cole, etc. It truly just became OVW with college kids. Its more of a product for for die hard fans who just wanna see green talent evolve which is why its even more stupid Evolve was brought back as a 2nd tier development brand.
 
NXT has been a struggle watch ever since Hunter started jacking all the top talent who was making HBK look good. Bron, Melo, Iija, Tiffany, Lyra were the anchors of the show and everything was built around them. I remember it was like a year ago some of us were standing on business sayin NXT was one of the best shows on tv. A year later and most weeks its not even worth watching. The men's division so fucking ASS that the 3 top male talent dont have anyone to wrestle so they just wrestle each other all the time lol and HBK doesnt know how to make male stars from the ground up. He got lucky with Oba, Jevon and Trick. All Ego dont count cause he came from AEW. Had it not been for the endless stream of fire women the show as a whole would be a total disaster.
 
Whoa whoa!!! I knows that aint who I think it is!!! LMAO!!! This nigga went running and hiding before AEW was down BAD… didnt show his face when AEW was going through a shit period… now he back beating his chest cause WWE playing .500 ball. Nobody cares little bro go back to your raps

I'll never switch up on the brand. They always go through dips and we did see worse during 2.0.

While there is some corny shit on there right now i thought we were bout to be in the dumps fr when they snatched steph and giulia but it aint even been as bad. The women are still the best part of the show but it seems like they trying to turn it around w/ the men.

They've been moving some pieces around and elevating some people who should have been elevated

Young OG looks to be officially part of the main event scene

they finally decided to use Briggs the way that he should of been used after all of these years

No Quarter Catch Crew officially split meaning those guys can all go do their thing in singles

And they FINALLY put the D'angelo family shit to rest it looks like...
