2. Lack Of Logic In Storylines
As a general rule in WWE, if you, the viewer, can find a plot hole or ask a question about whats being presented on-screen, then youre using more logic than WWEs creative team. Just how did Bray Wyatt steal the Undertakers powers, and how did Undertaker get them back? Why was Summer Rae trying to hide that she was opening Zigglers present, while ignoring the camera right in front of her? Why to the heels (especially the Authority) have secret promos in their office, while assuming that no one else on the roster watches the broadcast? These flaws and many more are seen all the time in WWE because the writers incorporate very little logic into their scripts, leaving the viewer to accept what they see as reality, even if its incredibly stupid. This is why so many older fans have stopped watching WWEs programming: theyre tired of getting their intelligence insulted with constant loopholes and rules changes in the Universe of WWEs stories. If WWE would keep stories simpler while adhering to a strict set of rules on what can happen in WWE and what cant, people wouldnt dismiss wrestling as such a low form of entertainment. Because no one likes to watch a program where both the stories and the characters make people feel stupid for watching.
