5 solutions to WWE's current TV ratings crisis 

#4 Order and structure

GM mode

The McMahon family are arguably the biggest heels in wrestling, as the common consensus is that there was no bigger heel in wrestling than Vince McMahon because, at the height of the company, McMahon vs Stone Cold Steve Austin was the hottest thing in wrestling.

However, while those days are done and dusted, McMahon still gets a whole lot of heat to this day for being the destroyer of his own creation, as his outdated booking, lazy approach, and overall handling of the product has led many to believe that he needs to step away from the company.

Maybe that is the solution or maybe it could be a mistake, but the McMahon's at least stepping away from the television section of the company could be more beneficial than many would expect, as WWE needs to bring back one thing that would make the shows a whole more structured.

General Managers for all their shortcomings are vital in the structure and order of a brand, as look at the amazing work Paige had done in her tenure as the GM of SmackDown Live. The New Era introduced by WWE has seen them take out GM's all together, but by reintroducing them to the shows, it will add a level of realism to the show many fans prefer.

#5 Listen to the fans

Just listen!

The last solution on this list is the first thing many propose when discussing this topic, as the solution of WWE just listening to their fanbase seems like the most logical thing to do.

The reason why the ratings are tanking is due to the WWE Universe realizing that they are fed up with the company's apathy with regards to the booking of the product, as everything from superstar pushes getting cut short to having to sit through the same matches every single week takes a toll.

There are those who will tell the aggrieved fanbase to stop watching if they don't like what they see, however, for many WWE fans it has become a habit to watch Raw or SmackDown, but for many that habit is not worth three hours anymore.

It's plain and simple, WWE needs to give fans what they want, as the push of Kofi Kingston, for example, has been received extremely well over the last few weeks, as the company is truly making an effort in ensuring Kofi's WWE Title reign works, which the fans appreciate.

While sometimes listening to the fans is a terrible mistake, as wrestling fans hate what they asked for when done, but most of the time it works out if a good booking strategy makes these dream scenarios come to fruition.
