Russo wonders where WWE goes from here creatively. Lane points out that back in the day you’d be excited to watch RAW after a PPV, but that simply doesn’t happen nowadays. Russo can’t come up with any potential match-ups for Reigns that’ll excite him at this point.
He adds that the product is terrible right now, possibly the worse it’s ever been. He thought the mid-90s were pretty bad, but at least there were still characters (admittedly outdated ones) during that era, and the performers still looked like wrestlers.
Lane points out that thankfully WWE has switched back to dual-branded PPVs, because two of these shows a month were tough to watch. Russo thinks WWE switched back to dual-branded PPVs because they weren’t making money and production costs were too much for them to handle.
That sums up today’s episode of Vince Russo’s The Brand. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
