It's the same thing that happened with the first brand split.
1. Split the brand's, and initially it's very good.
2. Smackdown gets raided every year, then draws less of course
3. Brand exclusive PPVs go away cause gotta make all PPVs good
4. Without a PPV feud to build to, half of each roster suddenly is forgotten and meaningless
5. Each show gets stale because they are filling the same amount of show time, but only writing half the number of storylines.
6. Vince adds even MORE people to the bloated roster, and then more people aren't getting storylines
7. Vince reacts by ending the brand split because neither brand has enough stars
Vince is too moronic to realize the shows don't have enough stars because he doesn't build any new stars or stops any momentum a rising star might have cause they lazily manage the brand split.
Or even worse, because he jerks the pushes around for some of the most petty bullshit ever.
Braun Strowman shows up at the arena at 2:30pm instead of 1:00pm for an 8:00pm show, so fuck all the potential money we can make off of him, he needs to know his place.
EC3, a natural heel, let's book him like an asshole for a month where he never talks, then be surprised fans don't cheer for him at a house show against Dean Ambrose.
Shinsuke Nakamura, the most unique, different, and captivating talent to show up in years, but he doesn't speak English flawlessly, being Japanese and all, so nope, let's squash him push, can't let him be the top guy.
Ambrose might talk about goofy shit sucking, but as a fan I am much more disgusted that Vince purposely books people so they DONT become big stars.
It is astounding that someone who is so driven by money that he deals with the Saudis, but he continually pisses money away but stopping wrestlers from becoming mega stars.
