10 Things That HAVEN'T Totally Sucked About WWE In 2021

10. An Array Of Decent Stipulation Matches

WWE can, surprisingly, be half-decent as it pertains to stipulation matches. Regardless of their actual overall quality, there's at least a couple of show-stealing spots guaranteed in an Elimination Chamber or Money In The Bank ladder match, for example.

In 2021, the company have promoted a decent amount of stipulation matches that were alright:-

Drew McIntyre and Sheamus' no holds barred contest from Fastlane was an intense, hard-hitting brawl that saw both men depart covered in kendo stick lashings and the latter being thrown through some electrical equipment.

Daniel Bryan and Jey Uso's steel cage outing from the 5 March SmackDown was a different form of intense, with the Uso twin scraping Bryan's face against the cage mesh in front of his impending Fastlane adversary, Roman Reigns.

Gauntlet matches - namely the one involving Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Randy Orton, AJ Styles, Kofi Kingston, and Jeff Hardy from Raw's 15 February broadcast - have acted as a way to perfectly build towards a marquee pay-per-view clash, in this case the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match.

More recently, Bianca Belair and Bayley's Hell In A Cell match, while a notable step down from the likes of Bayley vs. Sasha Banks in the Cell, had some decent spots, too; the match-ending KOD on a propped ladder was superb.
