“They don’t care anymore” - WWE will never be good again, says ex-employee (Exclusive)

WWE has been in the midst of a confusing time since its move to Netflix became official. The deal came into effect in January of this year and brought the company a lot of eyeballs and a significant influx of cash. It has been making good money through various agreements thanks to its increased popularity.

However, many fans and analysts alike have been criticizing the product lately. While the creative team has been largely praised since Triple H became WWE's Chief Content Officer in 2022, it has found some critics of late, with former WWE employee Vince Russo being one of them.

The veteran writer once again criticized the company's creative team on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge's Legion of RAW. He said that WWE doesn't care about the shows it is putting on anymore because it is only concentrating on delivering content and not on quality.

"They don't care anymore. I swear to God, they must be so focused on delivering content. Okay, RAW is over. We delivered two and a half hours. What's next? NXT? I mean, bro, that's really what they're concentrating on, delivering the content, bro. I'm telling you, Chris [Featherstone], this content will never be good again," Russo said.

He added that the content will never get better as the promotion is churning out too many shows, referring to premium live events taking place every month.

"It will never be good again. It's going to be the pops. It's going to be bringing people back. I mean, that's what we're going to keep seeing. It's going to keep being matches. You're never going to get compelling content again because they're turning out too much," Russo added.

WWE is set to host Wrestlepalooza this weekend, and several huge matches have been announced for the show. John Cena and Brock Lesnar will battle it out for the last time at the event, while AJ Lee will make her in-ring return alongside CM Punk to face Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.
