Triple Z: If I Was Running WWE Part One

ZWrestleTalk's new series "If I Was Running WWE" continues with Triple Z giving his thoughts on what he would do if he was in charge of the company.
This is my part one to the series. So I'm going to keep it short and simple. I will hit my first three key points and I will continue this concept later on. 

Make PPV Matter Again, Add WWE Network Exclusives

Picture
WWE has the big four PPV's. They have Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series. All these events are now four hour events. Sometimes they go longer than the four hours. Yet outside these four WWE lacks quality pay-per-view's in the brand split era. It feels with both shows having their own pay-per-views the build to them have become lazy. I would shorten the schedule. Although I would add more "WWE Network Exclusive" events. Similar to Beast in the East and WWE at MSG. WWE has been doing so many pay-per-views that they are naming them different things. Like "Great Balls of Fire" and I don't think any competing wrestling companies were going to steal that name. I would revolve the story lines around the big four PPV's. Yet have smaller PPV's gain importance. Money in the Bank would become a RAW and SmackDown PPV. So that we can have two Money in the Bank briefcases come into play. This would set WWE Creative for more options down the road. 

NXT's Quest to TakeOver Would Continue

Picture
NXT has been cleaning out both Ring of Honor and Impact Wrestling's rosters. Some could say they are going to go after PROGRESS and NJPW Wrestling also. If I was in charge of WWE I would continue this same pattern. I would make sure NXT's roster was so deep. If I had to specifically target people. I would go after Adam Cole, I would go after a veteran like James Storm. I think NXT still needs to stay true to its developmental purpose but I believe it could use WWE ready talent to keep interest high. It seems like WWE is following this idea still. At the most recent NXT taping Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly are now apart of NXT. These two were mainstays in Ring of Honor. 

Fix the Cruiserweight's

Picture
It's a very differing complication the purple division is facing. The division has two struggles. 
  1. It's kept away from the outside world of WWE. The talent isn't aloud to perform to the highest level.
  2. 205 Live is a horrible concept. It's to late to do it after SmackDown Live. Nobody watches the show on the WWE Network. 
The roster itself has potential yet isn't used to the maximum value. I think fans were expecting the Cruiserweight division to be the same as the mid-card and a bridge to bigger things. Similar to TNA and the X-Division. WWE enticed the audience with great talent and spectacular, jaw-dropping matches in the Cruiserweight Classic. Noticeably, two of the final four from that tournament are absent from WWE's reinvented Cruiserweight division. Zack Sabre Jr. and Kota Ibushi. Two talents that were epic during the tournament. WWE wasn't able to sign them to long term deals. 

If I had to rework this division here would be the immediate changes. 
  1. 205 Live is cancelled. Until the fans develop better interest into the Cruiserweights. 
  2. No more purple ropes. The division will exist within RAW. 
  3. Talent would be used in different matches.
  4. Stars like Neville and TJ Perkins can compete for the WWE Universal Championship. They can also come  come back and compete in the division.
  5. If 205 Live ever comes back it would be taped with NXT or the NXT UK group. 
I'm not saying get rid of the entire division. WWE is better with more titles that have purpose. The key word is purpose. The Cruiserweight Championship just can't be treated so strictly. They need to let the division be apart of RAW literally. I want to see Titus O'Neil fight Neville. Yeah, it wouldn't be for the title but it would prove that these Cruiserweights aren't the weak links of the roster. 


These would be my first three minor decisions if I ran WWE. More to come in later posts. Thanks for reading and comment below.
