7. ‘Fun’ With Photoshop

After watching the embarrassingly childish use of badly edited photos to build a feud, the easy joke to make is that WWE is written by fifth-graders, but that would be insulting to those 11-year-olds. Lord knows they could make great TikToks that would run circles around WWE’s sophomoric Photoshop jobs.

But yet, here we were on Monday night, watching the owner’s son use an obviously fake report card and image of Braun Strowman with a dunce cap to build up his feud with the Monster Among Men. It was truly side-splittingly funny stuff… on par with John Cena’s best work.

We know Shane McMahon is a heel, so this stuff isn’t supposed to be funny, but it wasn’t even insulting. It wasn’t entertaining or interesting. It was just stupid.

But because WWE is locked in its old, ancient ways, we are forced to continue experiencing this childish, unfunny crap.
