FINAL GRADE
In spite of what the critics may want you to believe, 2016 has not been all that much of a bad year. In fact, I'd challenge that notion and say this year has been the best year when compared to the past few.
With the year kicking off with the signing of AJ Styles, then major stars developing like Shinsuke Nakamura, as well as the rebirth of SmackDown, life in the WWE is not that bad.
Looking ahead to 2017, there are many possibilities on the horizon. The talent pool is very deep and the prospects waiting in the developmental process are very much capable of one day running with the ball. All things considered, we have a lot to be grateful for, as WWE fans.
Sure, things don't always go as we think they should, but it's easy to coach from the couch, so to speak. The WWE has plenty of well-qualified people to handle the direction of the product. As difficult as it may be sometimes, we must learn to trust the system in place and understand that things are perfectly okay and the future is indeed bright.
Fret not, my fellow wrestling fanatics.
