Unless Gunther is in the ring, it seems WWE matches have become so formulaic they're not even worth watching anymore.
Finisher spam. Every big match needs several of the exact same finisher spammed to score a pinfall. This is getting especially grating now they don't even bother going for submissions anymore, and they just repeat their only finishing move, usually mixed in with interferences to delay the next usage of their only move. This is made worse because sometimes the finishing moves are relatively simple collision based attacks like spears, just ad infinitum.
Too many interferences. Already mentioned it but interferences are getting to late 90s WCW levels now, no match is finishing clean, every ego must be protected, and it gets nauseating, and there's no stakes to anything. There is no illusion of competition or control over said competition.
No super finishers. There are no 'super' moves kept in the locker. Even John Cena had the super FU he kept for a rainy day, I'm not asking for Misawa style repertoires where you have 4 super moves kept aside, but even one or two elevated versions of your actual finisher. Or in Roman Reign's case some sort of lift or slam based move.
Spots old and tired. The same spots are repeated over and over, every big match will always feature, as examples ring post spear spot, or the famous lunge to the outside, suicide plancha, which is completely overdone to the point of cheapening the whole deal. When Undertaker did his dive at WM it was always special, now it's an average Smackdown match. There's several other easy examples.
Too loose. They are wrestling way too safe with their strikes and way too loose with their holds. I'm not suggesting they go full Terry Funk and potato everyone, but it has become especially obvious in the 4k era, with less camera cuts to protect them (Dunn has gone now),
