10 Serious Problems With WWE Right Now

10. The Cruiserweights Have Been Poorly Defined

The Cruiserweight Classic tournament that the WWE Network hosted this past summer was a huge success - so much so, that even before the tournament was halfway over, WWE announced that the cruiserweights would become a permanent part of Raw. When T.J. Perkins captured the new Cruiserweight Championship by winning the CWC, he was crowned the king of the new division.

That's worked out pretty well for Perkins - as well as his new rival Brian Kendrick - but unfortunately, the rest of the cruiserweights on Raw have gotten the short end of the stick. WWE was clearly impressed with their work - almost half of the men in the tournament have gone on to appear on Raw - but they haven't given men like Cedric Alexander, Lince Dorado, and Gran Metalik what they need to succeed.

What would that be? Maybe some character motivation, some expressed personality, and some feuds. These men are among the most talented workers in all of WWE, but this is still the sports entertainment company - fans want a character-driven reason to cheer or boo stars, and not giving those reasons to the cruiserweights has hurt their reception.
