For a company that states it had a 28% revenue increase in the 4th quarter why is the WWE in cost cutting mode?
The company stock is holding currently at $22.59. Answers could range from the divined payments being to high as predicted by many finical reporting companies. It also could be the subscriptions have been not as expected and stalled out at 1.6 million subscribers. It could be less viewership on Raw and Smackdown or it could be that Fans are showing WWE the dislike in programming as of late. Many reports are saying WWE is at its worst and will be turning things around soon.

My Overall Review of the show:
Elias is sitting in the ring with Gallows and Anderson. Songs are sung and a match finally starts. Seems Raw may going Trio teams with the Shield back seems more trios are piping up. After that reviews of 205 Live and more promos. Got a 205 match but was very short and not very entertaining. Coming off more commercials we get Miz TV. When the Miz asked the crowd if the Shield could take them on the crowd went crazy. Kurt Angle adds some stipulations to matches if Strowan wins Miz gets another member at TLC, however if they lose they lose Strowman. One women division match and not much excitement in it. After the match Fox attacks Banks and pushes a fer at least it was exciting for a moment. The show brings out Enzo and Enzo goes heel and finally Raw has some live entertainment going on! As normal Raw goes to commercials during the Tag Team Championship Match. Raw goes to Wyatt and Balor and a recap of Sister Abigail that WWE fans complained about last week. Balor comes to ring and shows his demon. Missing in action Nia Jax. Axle goes after Shield and shown hanging from a fork lift. The last match got some fun as action outside the ring. KANE comes from under the ring and Kane comes out and Reigns is destroyed!
I have decided to try to find a word for every show:
WORD FOR TONIGHT'S SHOW: Excitement
