WWE News: Former WWE Writer Goes On Big Twitter Rant, Says WWE Needs Full-Scale Change
Multiple people aren’t happy with the WWE. It’d be shocking to find out that everyone in the WWE is happy with the WWE. Ratings are tanking, the 18-49, male demographic received a.81 rating for WWE Raw this past episode and nothing seems to help the situation.
More people used to watch pro wrestling than watch it now, and that’s not good for the future of WWE. WWE NXT is the most-popular wrestling outlet on the planet, yet a portion of them got called up to the main roster and fizzled out, due to creative coming up with nothing worthwhile. Neville and Bo Dallas are two examples. Others include the Lucha Dragons and Ascension. Both teams were successful and popular in the WWE.
Rob Naylor, former-WWE NXT Creative Assistant, is a good mind for the industry. He had words on Twitter that shouldn’t be overlooked. Naylor believes the WWE needs a complete overhaul.
W/ the record low Raw rating made me think of that terrible overseas Raw in 97 that “changed” things & had Russo (ugh, I know) talk to Vince

It’s going to take a HIGHLY influential writer (I know two) or SOMEONE to put it all on the line and talk to Vince about how bad things are

It’s not a “HHH will save the day” either, cause the writers still seem to write for him and Stephanie too – the whole “audience of 3” deal

There needs to be a COMPLETE overhaul from Dunn and how the show is shot and produced. It’s just SO SAMEY. Every week, same template

It’s all got to change. Presentation, look of the show, all the tropes need to be phased out. New blood needs to be pushed differently etc.

It’s funny, there is nothing I’d love seeing more than HHH as a character on NXT (it’s fresh) and nothing less I want to see than HHH on Raw

I just can’t fathom watching Raw anymore. I saw the opening segment last night and I and the person I watched it with just turned it off
— Rob Naylor (@NINaylor) November 24, 2015
EVEN when I worked there, I rarely watched it. Would come in on Tuesdays complaining to DeMott. Was later told I wasn’t a “good soldier”
— Rob Naylor (@NINaylor) November 24, 2015
Needing to “pick my battles”. Welp, that….. is ALL of the problem. Seems like nobody ever wants to speak up. And when they do – punished.

As someone that LOVES wrestling, just sucks to see the pool pissed in quite often. Road Dogg said it best, if you don’t like it, don’t watch
— Rob Naylor (@NINaylor) November 24, 2015
Road Dogg said it properly on Twitter a few nights ago. If the fans don’t like what they watch, they can turn the channel. Naylor went on to talk about FSM Magazine and the way they were tweeting negatively the entire show. Naylor saw so many great talents in the WWE, not just in front of the camera. He saw many spectacular talents behind the scenes as well.
The WWE needs a new, fresh approach. Naylor believes that NXT Takeover: Brooklyn was refreshing. With the 50/50 booking, nobody stands out. How is someone better than the other if their record is the same? Logic is gone.
Mick Foley also voiced his displeasure with WWE Raw. Even he is on the verge of not watching WWE programming anymore. When Foley drops out of your camp, you know something is wrong.
