9 Things WWE Must Do To Bring Back Causal Wrestling Fans
7. More Consistency With Storylines and Characters
One of the most frustrating aspects of watching WWE is the constant changes to storylines and character motivations. There really isnt any consistency ahymore, leaving fans both puzzled and annoyed. Wrestlers like The Big Show and Mark Henry have been turned heel and face and heel again so frequently that its become a running-gag within the wrestling fan community. Just recently we saw Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose appear on a pleasant edition of The Highlight Reel, but, erm, remember when Chris Jericho abandoned the two back at Night of Champions? The creative team doesnt. Obviously characters need to change for storyline reasons, we get that, but wouldnt it have made more sense for the two men to grill Jericho over his decision, rather than present him with a plant and stool? Its these sort of inconsistencies that make for bad TV, because it just seems like the creative team isnt even focused on their own product. When fans switched on years ago, feuds like Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio began and grew organically and were reflective of the past. They didn't hate each other one week and crack jokes the next. Nowadays, it just feels like were expected to accept changes without question and simply forget what happened prior.
