The problem is you have about 7 million guys on a roster.... and a 3 hour Monday Night Raw. That should work just fine. But the problem is, the only people who are treated as serious characters are Roman, Brock, HHH, Steph, Braun, and Ronda. Everyone else for the most part is treated as a prop. There's no urgency in any storyline.

There's no reason why the Miztourage can't have their own proper feud--that's actually compelling, while also helping Miz win matches. There's no reason why every single Bar match means literally zilch.

Why does Finn Balor have to wrestle Seth Rollins every week? Why does Bayley have to wrestle Sascha every week? You've got a bloated roster, with the potential for serious storylines that could mean something, but 90% of your segments are afterthoughts. I look back to WWF in 2000 where, yes, it wasn't perfect, but you had Too Cool teaming up with the Rock to take on HHH and the Radicalz in one of the hottest RAW main events of all time. You had a red hot tag division taking part in memorable segments--inlcuding TEST AND ALBERT for fuck sake.

Wrestling is just depressing now.
