>>9308834No one has been able to come in and fill the gaps left Punk and Cody on television. Say what you want about them, but both of them were good enough that by the PPV rolled around you were invested in whatever the fuck they were doing. When everyone was rolling, you had maybe 4-5 angles on the card that people actually gave a shit about.
A year later, the workrate is still there but now there's only two quality angles going by the time the PPV rolls around:
>The trios shit is dimeless. There's no disputing this.>The midcard angles have no juice to them. Jericho's stuff has sucked for months, anyone involved with the ROH shit is ice cold, angles are shelved for months and brought back out of nowhere and rushed.>Despite all the additions they've made to the women's division, the creativity is getting WORSE and bordering on WWE-tier bad. When +70% of the card has been meaningless to objectively trash on television, people aren't forking over $50 for it.
