5 creative mistakes WWE has made in 2018
2018 has been a fantastic year for both WWE as well as for its fans across the globe. We have witnessed some of the best matches ever in WWE history, and also got to witness several outstanding rivalries and feuds.
The championship belts have changed hands several times, and many wrestlers have accomplished several unbelievable feats.
However, the WWE creative team and the management have made some major mistakes as well. These mistakes have put the team in a bad light, and the WWE could have avoided these mistakes, had they considered long term losses and not short term profits.
Here are some of the mistakes WWE have made in 2018.
#5 Shane McMahon winning the World Cup
The World Cup was an exciting tournament the WWE Universe looked forward to. They supported their individual favourites from both the RAW and SmackDown brands, and the finalists were supposed to be Dolph Ziggler and The Miz.
However, owing to The Miz's injury, Shane McMahon took his place. This was an improper booking in the first place. It would have made more meaning if an injured Miz competed or even forfeited. To everyone's surprise, Shane McMahon replaced Miz and went on to win the match, tagging himself the 'best in the world'.
Had Dolph Ziggler won the match, it would have made much more sense. McMahon is a part timer, and him winning the World Cup was a slap on the face of the entire WWE roster. The fans did not appreciate this, and it was a huge mistake.
#4 Breaking The Shield
The Shield is one of the most dominant forces in the history of WWE. Their teamwork was always appreciated by the fans. However, WWE decided to split The Shield by starting a rivalry between Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins.
This was not a good move on the part of WWE. Breaking The Shield was an unnecessary experiment. They could have had each other's back, but instead they are breaking each other's back. Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins could have achieved way more together, instead of being against one another.
Plenty in the WWE Universe didn't want Ambrose to turn heel. He was better off as a face. Fans loved the old 'Lunatic Fringe' who was way more entertaining than his present on-screen persona.
