WWE SmackDown is reportedly in a creative rut, according to a recent analysis. The show has struggled to maintain compelling storylines and fresh matchups.
One potential bright spot is the announced match between Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton at Crown Jewel. The high-profile bout could inject excitement into the brand.
Suggestions for fixing the creative rut include focusing on long-term storytelling, elevating mid-card talent, and reducing repetitive segments.
