It’s been a whole year since HHH took over as head of creative. There’s been some “adjustments” since Vince McMahon unfortunately returned to the company but HHH still have alot of creative input. How has he done?
Raw needs to be cut back down to 2 hrs b/c the creative isn't there to warrant the show being 3 hrs. I can watch about a good 30 - 45 mins of Smackdown then I'm out or I'll tune back in if there is a big main event poppin of. Other than that, neither RAW or SD is worth sitting through and NXT, I stopped watching after the 2.0 transition.Not as good as I thought he would have but I credit that to McMahon returning. The Bloodline storyline has been kept strong as well as Cody & Gunther’s respective paths. Still think Raw and Smackdown as a whole need some work tho. I’ve yet to watch a whole episode of both this year. Glad they did what they did with the titles tho. Still a lot of work to be done.
I think HHH is setting up Lashley for a reboot of the Hurt Business with a reset of "new" guys like the Street Profits and probably one more guy. They probably won't bring Lashley back until either the Judgment Day or Bloodline story is over.The good: Judgement Day, Iyo Sky, Santos, Gunther and the IC Title, getting Ricochet more time / exposure
Bronson Reed
An attempt at more cohesive threads along the shows
Neutral: Cody, Seth, KO, and Sami
The bad: Poor booking of the women’s divisions. Where’s Bobby?? Where’s AJ? An up and down use of the tag division
Austin Theory & the US Title
He gets a B- from me and I would say closer to a C+
Hard to give a real assessment when Vince has been back the last couple of months poking his nose around and deboing most of the creative.
Lashley just returned (and actually he was hurt for a bit) and their teasing a stable with him, the Profits and Trick / Melo. So I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt with Bobby for now. Before that he was stuck with Theory & Brock which didn’t garner great resultsI think HHH is setting up Lashley for a reboot of the Hurt Business with a reset of "new" guys like the Street Profits and probably one more guy.

If they reboot THB w/Melo & Trick and the Street Profits all as heels they can be a problem. I just don't trust creative. Vince ended the og group too soon and now I don't even want to see Shelton or Cedric in the new group. Shelton is past his prime yrs and they dropped the ball as far as doing anything w/Cedric.Lashley just returned (and actually he was hurt for a bit) and their teasing a stable with him, the Profits and Trick / Melo.

My squad coming together the proper way. Cedric and Shelton wasnt going cut it unfortunately. Cedric better hittting the indies and changing up his presentation.If they reboot THB w/Melo & Trick and the Street Profits all as heels they can be a problem. I just don't trust creative.

Hurt Business 2.o vs Bloodline would be a dope gang war.
Bloodline vs HB2.0 would of been even more dope.If only there was a bloodline left
