#3 Storylines
We don’t know what happened but for some reason, the quality of the storytelling on SmackDown Live has decreased dramatically over the course of the last twelve months. They went from producing great content to going back to the same old 50/50 booking, which also included the likes of Jinder Mahal becoming world champion with virtually no build.
On the other hand, Raw’s big stories have felt worthy of us tuning in for, and you have to question whether or not the writing has anything to do with that.
Personally, we’d like to see scripted promos be eliminated altogether, but if we can’t have that, then we’ll settle for Ryan Ward being returned to his position as head writer for the blue brand.
