10 2020 Mistakes WWE Will Definitely Repeat

2. 50/50 Booking

The term '50/50 booking' can often be used erroneously to appear smart by the kind of w*nkers who use words like erroneously to appear...never mind. Seriously though, it is a genuine problem in WWE circles during the modern era.

If everybody "gets their heat back" or avenges a prior loss, then who's getting over? Wrestlers can't gain momentum if they're trading wins and losses that keep everything even. Someone has to lose, there's no getting away from that. Imagine if the NFL season ended and every team had an 8-8 record - it's impossible, and it'd be boring anyway.

No, the beauty of sport (which wrestling mimics) is that there are clear winners and losers. Recently, Bayley lost to Natalya on SmackDown. Two weeks later, she beat Bianca Belair clean as a whistle. Why? This achieved nothing, and it made potential star Belair look like an even bigger failure.

2021 will follow the same dreary 50/50 formula.
