What's WWE's biggest problem?

While The WWE Universe might think WWE's problems have to do with bad booking, constant changes and not pushing the right superstars, the company has proven that not to be the case. In fact, despite WWE seemingly always catering to their audience, fans couldn't be any angrier right now.

And in all honesty, that's their problem and probably the result of expecting too much out of a company that is still trying to regain its footing after WrestleMania 35. They are also dealing with the rise AEW, several superstars being out with injury and some storyline issues, which isn't making things much easier.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

With that being said and The WWE Universe becoming more and more expectant on what they want in their pro-wrestling and their overall fickleness, here are the five biggest problems with The WWE Universe. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and tell us who you think the problem is!


#5 Inability to suspend disbelief

You know it's not real right?

That's usually what WWE fans get when they tell their circle of friends about pro-wrestling and while it can sometimes be seen as an insult, it can also be a way to ensure that you enjoy it more. In fact, by being able to suspend your disbelief, even for just one or two segments at a time, you can benefit from being further engrossed into the experience.

Unfortunately for the WWE Universe, however, they refuse to do this and instead choose to focus on what the company didn't do instead. For example, WWE fans could have looked at the unpredictability of the segment with Brock Lesnar and how much of an Attitude Era moment that it really was, but instead focused on him winning the briefcase.

If nothing else, the WWE Universe isn't doing two things. The first thing is suspending their disbelief and the second is managing their expectations. If the WWE Universe can somehow do that, they will be much more likely to enjoy the product and maybe even help eliminate some of the problems of the fanbase.

#4 Not knowing what they want

Does the WWE Universe know what they want?

Whether they actually do or not is probably a matter of opinion, but it honestly seems like they don't anymore. Not only is that evident by their constant complaints towards the company no matter what they do, but also by the fact that WWE has gone out of its way to cater to fans with diminishing results.

With that being said and the company still struggling to find its footing after Money in the Bank, maybe it's time WWE stops giving fans what they want and when they want it. If nothing else, fans are spoiled rotten at this point and will complain if absolutely anything doesn't go their way.

For example, WWE put on an amazing Money in the Bank pay-per-view this year, but the star-studded event was overshadowed by Brock Lesnar winning the MITB briefcase. In fact, the move was enough for some fans to swear off the company completely and swear their allegiance to AEW.

In the end, this more than proves WWE fans are fickle and furthermore, that they don't know what they want. It also proves that WWE trying to cater to them will only result in failure and need to think outside of the box in order to keep fans enthralled.

#3 Infighting

The WWE Universe is a very passionate group of people when it comes to pro-wrestling and while that can have its positive benefits, it can also have its downfalls as well. For example, the infighting The WWE Universe continues to partake in discussions about AEW versus WWE, Vince McMahon losing his mind and what the company should do next .

Not only does this prove that the WWE Universe loves to complain, but it also shows just how much infighting takes place amongst fans. In fact, between fans being split on Roman Reigns, AEW versus WWE and other such subjects, it's obvious that the community is a hotbed for infighting.

In the end, arguing and disagreements are fine, but to sit and make it personal or to make fun of someone is absolutely ridiculous. It is also not true to the spirit of being a wrestling fan.

In all, the community should focus more on coming together, instead of what can tear them apart and hurt the company as a whole.

#2 Loves to complain

Another thing the WWE Universe likes to do is complain and while the fans should have their voice heard, that doesn't mean the company should give them whatever they want all the time. Unfortunately for WWE, they have fallen into the trap of doing so and no matter what they do, they can't make the fans happy.

Again, the fans have a right to complain and do have some legitimate gripes against the company, but not to the degree that has been seen on Facebook and Twitter. In fact, if fans weren't so mentally prepared to stomp on the negative of the WWE, they would be much more open to the positives that are coming out from the company.

Maybe some fans will shift their thinking as time goes on, but for right now, the WWE Universe seems content to complain and nothing any WWE Superstar does will fix that.

#1 Hates change

Let's be honest here.

The WWE Universe dislikes change in any form and constantly complain about after every edition of Raw and Smackdown Live. Beyond that, they love to criticize any new idea WWE comes up with, even if it's a good one. If nothing else, WWE fans just shouldn't be taken as seriously as they used to be.

Think about it! WWE did The 24/7 title, brought in the wild card rule, moved Roman Reigns to Smackdown Live, took Brock Lesnar out of the title picture and fans still aren't happy. They are also so caught up in their dislike of WWE that they will put down the company and talk up any viable alternative.

Not only is that making the base extremely problematic, but also extremely biased as well. It's as if WWE could continue to do whatever the fans want and they would still find something wrong with it!
