That's it. There is literally nothing more to it. The product isn't around the characters anymore its only about muh story for every single one now.
Except some NXT wrestlers and Chelsea barely anyone else has something completely different that is not just them. Zelina tried bringing her anime and video game cosplays into the ring, got a new entrance song and all that was gone so fast again because some people are simply not interesting and that translates.
Safe to say, I miss real gimmicks. This shit now is just lame and uninteresting if you have 60+ wrestlers on the roster that are all themselves and and the same. How do they expect talent to actually start being interesting if they can't do it themselves either? Remember Cruz del Toro and Joaquin Wild (DJ Z), Dragon Lee? They brought back a shitty LWO to just have them together for ethnicity sake and barely do anything else other than walk out with someone, mainly Rey and Zelina but that doesn't happen anymore either. They'll never make it because "I'm latino" isn't interesting and there are many more that aren't either.
