Obvious statement time: WWE's roster is deep.

The company might not have as many bankable top stars as it'd like, but general talent levels aren't a pressing concern midway through 2020. In fact, if creative was a little more daring and didn't rely on the same 50/50 booking formulas, they could perhaps squeeze a bit more out of the workers they do have; that's a separate issue, though one well-worth whinging about.

For an example of the kind of depth WWE operate with these days, one need only examine which major stars are currently off TV. There are a frightening amount of former champions and WrestleMania headliners on the sidelines right now, for a variety of reasons, and there's no timescale for some of them to make a welcome return to screens either.

Some have been benched by injuries, and a few are taking much-needed breaks for personal reasons (some happy, some less so). Others just don't seem to have a place in ongoing storylines and feuds right now, and they're waiting for the nod to launch a comeback.

When they do, that roster will get even deeper...
