If WWE actually does a New Nation faction, it officially becomes racist to watch the show. Just getting it out there. I don't watch regardless, but I really hope for the sake of the wider IWC that instead of a New Nation we get like... disgruntled artisan bakers or something. Erik Rowan leading an army of agitated vinters.

In all seriousness... May as well. WWE’s goodwill and image is so deep in the f***ing toilet that any short term ratings-grab is going to get mocked regardless, and nobody will buy anything that even looks like a long-term fix because nobody expects it to last.

"Pro Wrestling Sheet has learned a new faction will debut tonight on Raw. According to sources, the superstars in the faction are being kept close to the vest by upper brass and will not be immediately revealed. However, from what we’re told, the group is set to “cause chaos” in WWE from a storyline standpoint and use any means necessary to get the attention of management. Our sources say the “chaos” is being caused by the group in an effort to loosen control over WWE Superstars and change the way the organization operates. Our sources additionally tell us this storyline is specific to WWE and NOT intended to be political. No further details were made available to us on the group at this time. In case you missed it, WWE has confirmed Shane McMahon will also appear on tonight’s show." So they're probably gonna namedrop things fans actually have issues with and then the company won't actually do anything about those issues.

Couple of ideas....
-They're gonna bring back 3 Count, but instead of Tank Abbott, it'll be King Kong Bundy. They'll be renamed "FIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!"
-They're gonna bring back a bunch of fired people, Zack Ryder, Kelly Kelly, Heath Slater, Jesse(of 'and Festus' fame), Tori and Vickie Guerrero(as Screech). It'll be a Saved by the Ring Bell.
-They made a typo, it's actually going to be a new FRACTION. Get ready for the debut of 5/8!

WWE is promoting it themselves via their Twitter. I just find it weird the way they worded it. It’s reads more like “plot point to happen tonight on show” then anything building up a faction. It reads so stiff, too. Like someone in corporate said to do this regardless of if it's a good idea or not. Also hey you remember back when wrestling shows had things happen on them and mystique was built up in angles, cliffhangers and mystery attackers being used to build suspense for the next week as we got peeks at some dangerous force we didn't understand. Now we have social media and friendly dirtsheets saying "Hey yeah something's gonna happen here's a press release on tonight's thrilling surprise" and it feels insane to me. TNA did this better. That feels insane to say because TNA invading factions--which I once mathed out as threatening the company for almost half of its existence back in 2016 or so--were almost always trash and failed miserably once they got going. But they tried at least. Aces and Eights built its suspense for months and functioned like it was a thing happening on a wrestling show. This isn't even trying, it's the most slapshod "Shit ratings are down and we need a fix right the hell now" mess driven by the hope that maybe people will tune in, and I don't trust that it's been thought out at all.

I know that nothing gets me more excited than seeing a group who is out to "shake up an organization's structure". What a sharp, pithy sentence that the old man has coughed out this time and insisted as the sole way for this to be advertised with.
