10 WWE Storylines That Made No Damn Sense In 2020

1. Lana: Top Babyface

Lana started the year with a botched marriage to Bobby Lashley and whispers of jilting Liv Morgan, not to mention the abandonment for beloved husband Rusev. That shambolic story was eventually jettisoned but the former Ravishing Russian stayed on the heel side of the ledger, siding with Natalya and treading water for a while, before rumours began to bubble that WWE was planning on making her a top babyface.

Their plan? Have Nia Jax put her through a table, week after week after week. Genius! Nothing guarantees a beloved star like that star being demolished constantly.

Not working? How about having her be the sole survivor in an elimination match? Great idea! Although having her win that aforementioned match after spending the whole thing sobbing on the ring steps? Not so great.

WWE has absolutely no idea what it is doing when it comes to building new stars, and the Lana debacle is the latest in a long list of creative failures. Unless the whole thing is a joke, of course. That remains the only plausible explanation for how Lana has been booked in recent months.

Don't expect Lana to be the next big WWE babyface. It'll take at least six more months of her being put through tables for that to happen.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
