#1 Overemphasis on Women's division

Funny how WWE switches focus to The Women's division all of a sudden.

Let's be honest here.

WWE is trying to cover up for their lack of a Universal title picture and extremely slow storyline progression by trying to focus on The Women's Revolution. Of course, this is probably a great thing for the women's division of both Raw and Smackdown Live, but that doesn't change the fact that the company is using this as a distraction.

In all honesty, why else would WWE choose to end the show with an eight-women gauntlet match? Again, that's not a slight on the women's division, but do you think WWE would have done this if they weren't in the booking situation they are currently in? Don't you think they would have focused on Ambrose versus Rollins, Lesnar versus Strowman or something else?

In the end, the pandering wasn't even subtle and that's what's going to make it harder to watch later when WWE forgets about The Women's revolution again. Fortunately for The Women's division, however, Bruan Strowman is still injured and the money isn't right yet for Brock Lesnar, which could mean that the women get a chance to shine for a while longer.
