Yeah, the roster is definitely getting big for the TV time available.

Creatively the good thing about a big roster is that you don't have to overexpose anybody, you could easily make it so that nobody ever wrestles two Dynamites in a row. MJF wrestles one week, does a promo or vignette to advance his storyline the next, etc. They were pretty good at cycling talent like that pre-pandemic.

The flipside is it means stuff like Cody's Open Challenge becomes meh in a hurry because while he's a good worker, I don't necessarily want to see a 15 minute Cody match every week when there's other talent to be showcased. Same thing I'm critical of WWE with where they've got a giant roster yet the same guys wrestle every week while a quarter of the roster never make it out of catering.
