I just got bored from the overall show. Nothing really pushed me to continu watching as often as I did. Not even Sami winning the title, and I was a huge Sami fan before.
I'll probably watch MitB and depending on how they continue afterwards I might return to it. And if not my next show is the Rumble lol. Never missed that since I started watching again
Royal Rumble is always peak asf

The story peaked during covid days. Roman turned heel and became Tribal Chief is 1 of best thing happened to WWE.
Then we had Edge return in 2020 Royal Rumble, Bray Wyatt running Firefly Fun House, Seth doing hilarious gimmick of Monday Night Messiah, and face Drew McIntyre.

After WM 40, the quality dropped. Solo becoming new Tribal Chief wasn't believeable with his previous loss streak. Judgment Day is shit faction. Cena turning heel fell flat. Randy Orton turning heel wasn't that good neither.
I think 2023 wasn't that good neither, post Bloodline internal drama then Sami Zayn got kicked and Jey leaving. The storyline was much better when Sami Zayn became Honorary Uce, but they pulled the betrayal trigger too fast.

And Roman's health too. Damn he became part timer and ruined his storyline.
Compare 2022 days and 2026 days. 2022 Roman and Usos feuded with RK Bro and Drew, and of course Roman was directly involved and personally leading the Bloodline. 2026, 946 kept attacking Bloodline for weeks and Roman is nowhere to be seen.
 
I miss Bray Wyatt until this day... He was really good at delivering storyline..
Iirc it was like, Bray carried Raw while Roman carried Smackdown. If watching Raw, my highlight was always Bray's segment just like when watching Smackdown, my highlight was always Roman and Bloodline's segment.

Now that Bray is gone, I always think, if Roman is in Raw, then Raw > Smackdown and the other show becomes B show... Nobody is really that interesting anymore in the show without Roman. While Roman himself now also becomes part timer.
2019-2022 was the days.
 
My next PPV is the Rumble unless something extremely major happens to make me tune in before that.
Do you prefer Wargames or traditional Survivor series? By last year I remember people were tired already with Wargames, but sadly this year Wargames still continues

The first Wargames in 2022, Bloodline vs Brawling Brutes + Drew + Kevin, is still sadly BY FAR the best Wargames, when Sami proved loyalty as Honorary Uce
2023.. Judgment Day vs face alliance, not that memorable at all except Randy Orton making his return and CM Punk showing up post show
2024, OG Bloodline vs Solo Bloodline, had potential but meh execution and meh pacing. Worse than 2022
2025 Bloodline vs The Vision, also nowhere as good as 2022

I'm just tired of The Bloodline being in it nearly all the time. And in general I dislike such extreme rules gimmick PPVs. When they first happen they even make sense as a blow off match. But when you do it every year at the same time then it loses its magic quick.
I'd prefer a traditional Survivor series elimination tag match this year.
You can tell a better story that way.

I don't really mind having another Bloodline feuding with other big faction.
But Bloodline is far better as heel faction imo, and Roman is also better as heel
And putting 946 against Bloodline doesn't really work. You can't have veterans like Roman and The Usos who have been here for more than 10 years, and put them against.. a bunch of NXT wrestlers??
How can we take those NXT wrestlers seriously, where Royce just appeared like some months ago and the 2 other guys literally just debuted in Raw?

It took some moments for fans to finally liking The Shield and Wyatt Family, can't be instant iirc. But 946 just debutted some weeks ago and already portrayed as big threat against Bloodline, who had been dominating since 2021 and filled with veteran wrestlers?

Might as well filling the Wargames or Survivor Series with different storylines.
Like The Vision vs Oba Femi or Chad Gable or both that are helping Alpha Academy
 
Post WM 40 is so ass :catcry:
2024 they tried to make Solo Bloodline / MFT as the new mega heel faction, they failed
2025 they tried to make The Vision as new mega heel faction, they failed
2026 they tried to make 946 as new mega heel faction, I can smell already they gonna fail again

Judgment Day is also a joke
 
Chad Gable has been delivering banger after banger these last few months. His and Ludwig Kaiser's El Grande Americano match was so amazing, and he had many other wonderful matches with Penta, Rey Mysterio, Dragon Lee, and now Rey Fenix. He's my wrestler of the year.
