12 WWE Criticisms That Make No Damn Sense

Haters gotta hate but it doesn't mean they are right.

Over the last two decades, the Internet has become a cesspool for wrestling fans to voice their complaints about the current product. Sometimes those complaints are completely founded, born of concerns they have for the direction of the sport as a whole. Other times, though, the criticisms are born of a portion of the audience and their disenfranchisement with whatever WWE is producing at that moment. It may not necessarily be bad, it just may not be what that group of fans wants to see. And thus, warranted or not, they label it "bad." That is true of today's WWE television as well. More so than ever, criticisms of Vince McMahon's creative direction are absolutely deserved, but there is a great deal that is not. In fact, there are a great number of criticisms made by fans that are completely unfounded. "WWE needs to focus on young talent," "they don't push the midcard talent," and "John Cena sucks and needs to go away" are just a few of the complaints registered by fans on a regular basis. But there is little validity to them. In fact, they make no damn sense. These are just a few that leave fans of logical scratching their heads.

12. "The Divas Revolution Is Hurting Women's Wrestling"

Is the Divas Revolution everything it needs to be in order to really bring women's wrestling to the forefront? Probably not, but to suggest that it is somehow hurting the sport is ridiculous. In fact, the Divas of today are receiving more television time and more in-ring time than ever before. It is not uncommon these days to see Nikki Bella and Paige get 10 minutes on Raw or SmackDown. Currently, the aforementioned Bella and Divas champion Charlotte are engaged in a rivalry on one part of the show while Paige and Natalya have their own program unfolding elsewhere. When is the last time there were two women's feuds running simultaneously, at least post-brand extension? The fans that claim the Divas Revolution is hurting women's wrestling, thanks to the label slapped on it by management, are likely the same ones who cried, moaned, whined and implored WWE Creative to put more emphasis on the Divas division. The Divas Revolution is not hurting anything. Instead, it is giving fans the opportunity to enjoy women's wrestling in a way that they never could before.
