This is the first stuff a casual fan notices. Other than “he didn’t really hit the guy,” the most off-putting stuff to casuals is the stuff that seems so inorganic.

I know someone who checked out SmackDown post WrestleMania in 2018. There was a word that kept being used because Vince was telling everyone to use it. Something like “heinous.” Turned them off the product because someone said it in a promo, they said it on commentary and someone said it in an interview.

Magic cameras, magic intros (AEW is guilty of these too) and unnatural conduct are exactly the sort of things casual fans care about.

These huge stadium shows could do the same thing.


Redefining these tent poles should theoretically give them things to build to and come from. It’s not an unreasonable way to think about them.
