5 mistakes WWE has made thus far in 2019

#1 The Wild Card Rule

Roman Reigns appears on both Raw and SmackDown Live under the Wild Card Rule

This year's Superstar Shakeup was nothing short of a mess. It lasted for 2 weeks with numerous stars switching brands weekly. Andrade was moved to Raw, only to be drafted back to SmackDown Live the next week, Aleister Black was drafted to Raw and then immediately sent to SmackDown Live. Fans had lost track of which superstar was on what one brand, but that didn't matter as Vince McMahon introduced the Wild Card Rule two weeks later.

After Kofi Kingston, Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns (who were exclusive to SmackDown Live) appeared on the May 6th edition of Raw, Vince introduced the Wild Card rule that allowed 4 stars to appear on their rival brand each week. The Wild Card Rule made the brand-split pointless. Roman Reigns and Drew Mcintyre appear regularly on both shows, so do R-Truth and countless other stars.

These WWE segments are not for kids - Watch here 😏

The Wild Card Rule is pointless and unnecessary. There is no such thing as brand supremacy anymore and the brand-split is essentially over, the Wild Card Rule is full proof of the brand split's failure and inevitable demise.
