5 Major consequences of WWE removing Paul Heyman as RAW Executive Director

#4. A major inconsistency in the quality of RAW

Can Seth Rollins be a difference-maker?

One of the big problems that RAW has faced in the post-WrestleMania pandemic era is the level of inconsistency. While there have been quite a few solid shows with great storyline progression, it was often followed up by a week of programming that did nothing to gain interest.

This can't be solely blamed on Paul Heyman (though he did take the fall) because there are a lot of factors going into this. For one, there is a limited roster, where Superstars can choose if they want to work the tapings or not.

Another factor is the inflow of new talent and limited overall staff to help with the creative process. However, we don't anticipate this getting fixed with Heyman gone. Had WWE stuck with their guns, we would likely have seen a scenario where RAW would eventually gain back some consistency.

Bruce Prichard has too much on his plate right now and it's unlikely that we'll see a 100% focus on RAW. With Heyman in place, at least there was one name on each brand to give that required focus.
