10 Awesome Ideas WWE Suddenly Stopped Doing

This is definitely a point that many fans of the previous WWE generations lament, but there's a reason it is brought up so often. Losing out on unique set designs has made everything bleed into one homogeneous aesthetic, and fans miss the old days.

WWE used to have a great focus on the design of an arena. Whether it was an episode of Raw/SmackDown or a big PPV event, the company would create a stage that matched it. This often led to iconic imagery such as the SmackDown fist or (in the case of WCW) the Halloween Havoc pumpkin. A PPV meant spectacle, but that's not always the case nowadays.

Most WWE events now, including weekly shows and Premium Live Events, have the same LED screens plastered on a blank background. Some events switch the look up, but only once in a blue moon, and very few of them can compare to the glory days of the massive sets of the past.

This is, sadly, not something that is going to change anytime soon, as WWE's cost-cutting ventures won't allow it. Still, fans can always look back and remark on how things used to be.
