What are the worst things in wrestling in your opinion? Is it a certain move? A catchphrase? Character? Is it Michael Cole? Just write down anything in wrestling that you can't stand!

About 30 finishers hit in one match.

Spots being used in every single match. Ambrose's clotheslines, the "flying usos" Reigns' kick to the head on the apron.
Leave em for special matches, PPV's or when you need to pull out everything to win.
And as above, finishers should finish the match 99% of the time, none of this bullshit where they are hit 5 times in a match.

When someone is locked in a submission move (eg boston crab) and does the crawl to the ropes bit, I hate how they always do the last grab to the ropes in super slow motion.
Itami did it v Breeze in the last special, looks so stupid.
Also the slo-mo reaching for a belt in a ladder match.

But then what suspense is there when someone hits their finisher? I agree that they shouldn't spam them like we've seen in WWE recently, but it shouldn't be a guaranteed victory either.

I can't stand the amount of re-caps and replays we see on WWE programming. Make the programming more must-see, by not re-hashing it a billion times over on the same show and the shows that follow. Missed something? Tough s**t, you should have been watching, because we're not replaying it for you.
There's so much fat to be trimmed on WWE's programming, where the time can either be spent on something else, or cut entirely.
Was glad to see Triple H express recently how hard it is to do that extra hour of Raw. Hopefully they axe it at some point, and go back to a two-hour format. So much drag in those shows it's not funny.

Fans chanting "this is awesome" because of a flying uso or multiple false finishes.
Chants like "marking out" that kill all kayfabe.
The door in cage matches, why do they have it? It's so easy just to walk out and makes it seam pointless to climb.
Whenever commentators say "the refs up to a count of six" you know the match will end in a count out, despite wrestlers in other matches staying outside the ring for up to thirty seconds and the commentators don't even bring up the count

The fans
The commentary
The camera work.
Limited movesets
Matches that happen for no reason
Lack of storylines for both the main event and the mid-card
The lack of continuity of the writing
Guys with no character
6 man tag matches. It's the same s**t every week. "FLYIN' USO MAGGLE"
Refusal to build stars like Ambrose, Cesaro and Ryback
PPV stages being the exact same as Raw
Generic theme songs
The shitty red arena lighting on raw.
Zig-zag
3 hour Raws
G-Rated wrestlers like The matadores, Adam Rose, people in animal suits and short people (short people as in El Torito, not Daniel Bryan)
Smiling, goofy G-Rated faces who are in the main event.
App, twitter, youtube, facebook, tout, instagram and network whoring by the 3 stooges
Steel Cages and Hell in a Cell matches. They don't use the cage these days.
That's all I can think of.

Doing half of a story. What the hell happened between Adam Rose and the Bunny? The Bunny just disappeared. Brie Bella?
"Creative has nothing for you"
Bull Dempsey
Baron Corbin and his finisher where he gives himself a Rock Bottom
BRIE MOOOOODE
Guys on the main roster only staying there because of the money.
Divas. the ****ing divas division. Just call it the women's division, bring back the Women's title and let them have some decent matches. Also, don't let the useless ones like Cameron, Eva Marie and Rosa wrestle on the main roster.
Handshakes/hugs at the end of matches are starting to get overdone.
The over usage of lots of stuff in general. Dean Ambrose's rebound clothesline is cool when it's done once every now and then. Roman Reigns' bottom rope dropkick. All that kind of stuff.
This image sums up my last point kinda well.

Daniel Bryan vs Kane (every week)
Roman Reigns vs Big Show (every week)
Wasn't the casket match between Bryan and Kane meant to be the end of the story line? They've fought in 2 matches since then.. snooze fest!

No, just allow the wrestlers to use more than 5 moves.

2nd That. When they did that the Content backwards
WWE should make one of their shows PG and Raw for adults.

That would be a Good Idea.
Didn’t they try that a few years back where they tried to make a Kids Show?
I'm not sure.
John Cena can be the face of the PG show and watch all the kids flock to him.
