Now, more than ever, WWE fandom is all about learning how to take the good with the bad, accepting that not every dollop of content is going to be tailored for you specifically, and accepting that you aren't going to enjoy everything. That doesn't mean abandoning sincere, objective criticism, but being more mature about the things you don't like about WWE.

When watching Raw, SmackDown, or any other Vince McMahon-produced show, ask yourself two questions after every match/segment:-

1. "Did that work for me?" If so, then congratulations. All is well in the world. If not...

2. "Did it work for the audience, or, at the very least, those it was intended to work for?" If "yes," then spare the vitriol and appreciate that the company weren't trying to tick your boxes with that one.

While it would be nice to have a WWE product that satisfies every fan, all of the time, that's never going to happen. The audience is comprised of too many different groups of people who all want something different from each other. Content that isn't for you will surface every week, and we all need to accept that.
