Reports have come to light that WWE RAW stars are made to wait for long periods prior to matches.
WWE RAW stars are reportedly not happy
Reports suggest that the new format of ‘RAW’ has prolonged the wait time. Between the advertisements, video packages, interviews and recap segments, the downtime between the start of an entrance to the beginning of a match regularly exceeds 15 minutes these days ’“ especially for the ‘RAW’ main events. However, the near 20-minute gap for th 5/30 ‘RAW’ main event between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan seemed particularly blatant.
According to Fightful Select, a lot of the WWE stars dislike the new norm of hanging around for long periods and have conveyed their complaints to WWE higher-ups. Fightful reached out to several Superstars who had been subjected to the waits over the last year.
The wrestlers were reportedly told that the TV show’s format ‘was what it was’ and it was intended to ‘improve the show flow.’ When one talent was asked what they did during the wait time, they said ‘talk to the crowd, dance, get annoyed that I’m waiting that long.’
