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.

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.
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
