During that Survivor Series time of year, they ALWAYS have people from the other brand come through the crowd like they are invading the show. I think they have literally done this like 6/8 years.
It was cool the first time when Scott Hall did it, now it's just lazy storytelling.

just the 2-3 second cuts...even the finishers on replay, to hide the frequent near botches, cut so fast that it wouldn't matter if they hit them anyway...
Has driven me crazy forever but I guess you just grow into something and rinse and repeat. Atleast that's how my own defective brain works haha

When there's a massive brawl and we have to have 20 cuts and 50 zoom ins and outs in a 30 second span. I understand it's to imitate chaos as to what's happening but it makes me legit motion sick half of the time.

Going under the top rope in the Rumble and taking a snooze outside.
Come on. Every goddamn year. Give them a 10 count!

Let the ref have some discretion.

One person goes out through the ropes, lays on the floor for the entire match, some other person thinks they won, first person throws them out from behind. That was almost every battle royal for the last 15 years. I'll give them some credit, though. That women's battle royal on RAW 2 weeks ago? They returned from commercial with Nia completely vanished, and I thought for sure that meant Nia was winning. Then she came back in and got tossed. It was refreshing! Also, it meant Nia didn't win, so double bonus.

Crowd reaction shots. Once in a while WWE will strike gold with one—Angry Miz Girl probably being the best example—but when it’s after EVERY SINGLE high spot? Too much. I’m tuning in to watch the action, not some guy’s shocked face several rows away.

MITB winners cashing in on ailing opponents. It was fantastic when Edge did it since it played into his Ultimate Opportunist character, but everyone has done the same thing every year.
I’d like to see more RVD situations where the babyface announces beforehand when and where he’s cashing in.

GOTG is the peak variation on the MITB concept.
Anways echoing the stupid trope of someone no longer in the rumble being allowed to still eliminate someone in the rumble.

"Big dude in Rumble takes out a lot of people and then it takes a team to get them out of the ring"
"Faces having a hard time coexisting while heels have zero issue"
"Fat or big wrestler has a silly dancing/vibing side for comedy purposes"
Not really a trope but "WWE styled promos that have clear openings in them for 'What Chants' even if a babyface is saying it"

Yeah, I don't mind the someone not in the match eliminating... as the wording of the rules is usually "go over the top rope" which they still do even if someone else pulls them / throws them / whatever... but the slide out of the ring and take a nap for 40 minutes is always terrible, and they do it in every battle royale... that said they've had the people that do that lose more recently... which is kinda worse? On the royal rumble... I don't mind the barricade or the table landing but some of things like... oh they landed on someone else... or the entire pancake nonsense is like way passed my point of acceptability... like why aren't everyone arguing that their feet never touched the floor because they're wearing SHOES!

I’m tuning in to watch the action, not some guy’s shocked face several rows away. I blame the guy shocked after Taker lost. He ruined it for everyone who watches on TV and dude was there live. They’re so obsessed with getting this reaction, they edited one fan. When Roman was face, he was getting beat up. The fan was cheering his ass off. WWE edited it to some other reaction he had to something else in the night where someone must have told him his puppy got run over by a milk truck. So they have fans ISO’d and that’s f***ed up.

The standard RAW 15 minute break before the main event actually starts.
