#4 Might not Win: The general wrestling fandom have "WWE Fatigue"

The WWE is an entertainment industry juggernaut, an unstoppable machine which takes in pro wrestlers and turns them into superstars.

Unfortunately, it has become a victim of its own success. The WWE creative writers room has often been accused of being an echo chamber for the ideas of one man, Vince McMahon.

While McMahon has crafted many expert characters and story lines over the years, many believe that his particular 'flavor' has grown stale amongst the WWE Universe.

A great example would be John Cena. When he first was elevated to the main event, he still had a bit of edge despite being a babyface. But over time the WWE Universe grew polarized by Cena, with many upset that he dominated the title picture for over a decade.

The WWE 'formula' also failed Roman Reigns during his initial main event push. Though things have gotten better for the Big Dog, a lot of that has to do with better booking and a fresher take on his character.

In short, the WWE is good at what it does, but the general wrestling fandom might be tired of what the WWE is good at.
