I love making the Roman Reigns except he's the worlds tallest man and made out of gold joke with Roman's entrance... otherwise yeah most are pretty bad.
I like Sheamus's and I don't mind the Noh Masks for Asuka. Those are the main ones I can think of off the top of my head ...

They had just started using them when I stopped watching them and they sucked.
Not as bad as the Usos getting damn CGI jail cells in their promo.

It astounds me they look so f***ing awful with how much money this company supposedly has. Like they look outdated the second they appear on screen
If more of them were like Sheamus it'd actually be interesting or add to entrances... but they aren't. They're just distracting.

Oh my god, that one episode of Smackdown where they started that shit was such a mind f***. Remember when they did those backstage promos like they were on cellphones and some words would blow up on the screen and be in different fonts and effects to try and emphasize their meanings? Yeah that time was very much the "Someone told Vince about Adobe After Effects" time in WWE...

Yeah that time was very much the "Someone told Vince about Adobe After Effects" time in WWE... That was one of those concepts that worked on Mixed Match Challenge and on social media, since a lot of people will scroll by the videos on their feed, and will watch the promo with the sound off if there's subtitles. But the concept does not translate at all to a show you are watching live with the sound on. And New Day especially hated when the FEEL THE POWER intro was subtitled, since they had to pre-record Big E saying the spiel so it would be in time with the graphic, and they were so accustomed to Big E doing it on a mic backstage and feeding off his energy that it was dragging their vibe down.

It absolutely felt like a this is big on social media so it'll be great for television! feel... ignoring like... why it was big on social media.

The Raw robot and the Smackdown drone are the best use of them.

They're awful and not only do they add nothing, they actively detract from wrestlers' entrances. Not having them would both be cheaper and look better.

Awful, and makes the show genuinely difficult to watch along with the incessant zooms and cuts

The red cloud Finn had was pretty cool. I actually liked that one when it first showed up, but ofc WWE can't just leave shit alone, so now there's tentacles and lightning and it looks stupid like all the rest.

It’s stupid. I feel like maybe you break these out for the Rumble or Mania, but they just look dumb and add 0 to the product…also I noticed on Raw they didn’t have the LED ring aprons anymore..is this an everyday thing or just because of the cage? I sure hope they get rid of all that extra crap on the ring. Just makes it look dumb

I hate it. I think it's way too silly and completely unnecessary.

They also had regular ringposts rather than the bulky ones they've used with the LED ring aprons last night.

I think they look lame as hell but I wonder if kids today dig ‘em.
And one day when they get older, they’ll be treated similarly to stuff like the “Smackdown fist”.

They’re a really cool idea that WWE goes full WWE on and they usually end up lame. Anyone but Kevin Dunn running the truck and I bet you they’re sweet as f***
