There were three individuals who took on local talent this week, in matches that were extremely predictable. While I'm not opposed to enhancement talent matches, if you have too many of them on the show, it just ruins the charm. Buddy Murphy, Aleister Black, and Erick Rowan won their matches with the utmost of ease.
The other matches that took place this week were pretty easy to call as well. I mean nobody from NXT was going to come and defeat Charlotte Flair, out of the blue. Zack Ryder was not going to defeat Drew McIntyre and No Way Jose wasn't going to beat Rusev.
In an age where you demand unpredictability and TV shows like The Witcher serve this unpredictably to fans in generous doses, why would they sit through three hours of a program that is predictable? WWE needs to add shock value to their shows.
