10 Times WWE Logic Led To F***ing Stupid Moments
Those times WWE logic resulted in insulting booking, the loss of talent, and hilariously bad twists.
The biggest wrestling organisation on the planet may be enjoying arguably its most successful (or lucrative) period ever right now, but that still doesn't change the fact that WWE are still more than capable of making some of the most baffling calls imaginable.
In fact, in the last year alone, everything from hilariously ill-thought-out comebacks to utterly foolish PLE decisions have often left fans scratching their heads and wondering how this sports entertainment juggernaut continues to sell out arenas around the globe.
Despite regularly leading to entirely stupid occurrences either inside or outside of the squared-circle, though, not even WWE's consistently puzzling logic has been able to stop the company from making an absurd amount of dollar.
Simply put, as a great 'Chick Magnet' once declared whilst sat crossed-legged on Monday Night Raw, "Vince McMahon is going to make money despite himself."
So, from those insane moments when some of the most respected and celebrated names on the roster were deemed too old to make an impact, to the boss' refusal to see value in anyone under six-foot tall, these are those times WWE's bizarre way of thinking resulted in inevitably ridiculous happenings.
10. Pushing Multiple Main Events Undermines The Whole Point
WWE have a habit of green lighting promotional tactics that sound a whole lot better in someone's head than they do when uttered by Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick.
Case in point, the company's insistence on now pushing multiple main events on their upcoming PLE's is just plain dumb, but in WWE's mind it likely makes all the sense in the world.
Fans always class the bout that goes on last in the "main event" spot as the most important contest the promotion has to offer that night. So, in an attempt to make the rest of the card feel just as big as that epic finale, why not give them four main event attractions?!
Who could say no to a SummerSlam, for example, boasting that many show-closing mega matches?
But therein lies the dumb problem. The main event is typically the final contest, the one you've all been waiting for.
So, there's absolutely no logical way of producing a show that holds more than one.
WWE's refusal to accept this pretty straightforward fact hasn't made the other "main event" matches going down elsewhere on the card feel any bigger, and it's actually ended up undermining the contests that are given that prestigious end-of-show spot, too.
Who cares if you're in the "main event", Jey Uso, fans have apparently seen three of those already.
