#3 Worst: Too many flashbacks
Ad
I wasn't sure if I was watching a new show or an Impact Wrestling rewind special episode, honestly
With all due respect to Impact Wrestling and the GWN App, do you need these many flashback segments to remind fans to subscribe? Isn't it more important for Impact Wrestling to build new stars than showcase AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy over and over again?

There's nothing that takes attention away from the program than a multitude of flashback segments. One every week is fine, but when you're served with 3 or 4 in one episode, it can become a little too much to take really.
Honestly, the amount of downtime in Impact Wrestling is criminal. You go from an ad to a flashback segment to an ad to a backstage segment.
This could be a major reason why the number of viewers is dropping so very much, I think.
