10 Reasons To Stop Watching WWE

1. The Company Doesn't Use Talent Right

There's one area in which WWE plays second fiddle to no other organization on Earth - roster talent. The company's stars include Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose, Neville, The New Day, Chris Jericho, Kevin Owens, Kalisto, Dolph Ziggler, and once in a while, The Undertaker. Even the injured reserve is enough to man a world class promotion, as John Cena, Seth Rollins, Cesaro, and Tyson Kidd surely prove. All of them, and the company decided to put the WWE Championship on Sheamus late last year. All of the talent in the world doesn't mean anything if it's not used correctly. That's why AJ Styles already looks doomed to be a non-factor in WWE, and why even though he and Shinsuke Nakamura have jumped ship, New Japan is still guaranteed to be a better promotion in 2016. It's nothing new, and for decades talented undercard workers have suffered while political favorites were used in more prominent positions. The more A-level talent WWE poaches from other organizations, though, the more that pushes for Triple H and The League of Nations stand out. The ability of the men and women who work for the company - but are consistently passed over for pushes - makes watching Raw not just boring, but infuriating. WWE claims to listen to its fans, but with each passing year, that tagline is further exposed as a lie. If WWE would rather mismanage its resources than present a compelling product, it's time we watch something else.
