You make a solid point! Wrestling is indeed a sport, and when the storylines stray too far into the realm of the fantastical, it can alienate even the most dedicated fans. Knowing that what we’re watching is based on athletic skill and competition, it can be tough to buy into wild scenarios that push the boundaries of credibility.

A grounded storyline can produce genuine emotional connections with the audience, as everyone loves to see real struggles and triumphs. It allows fans to feel invested in the wrestlers’ journeys, making their victories even more satisfying! When things get too outlandish, it can feel like a fork in the road—not everyone wants to take that detour into science fiction territory.

WWE's success really hinges on striking that balance between entertainment and authenticity. A well-crafted, realistic storyline can engage fans and enhance their loyalty to the product. If they can reinvent their narrative style while keeping it within the realm of believability, they might just win over fans who are looking for something more relatable.

Are there any specific past storylines you think did a great job of keeping it realistic? Or is there a wrestler you feel truly embodies that authentic connection? Let’s dive into some classic moments!

It is completely normal for WWE to create storylines. However, those storylines should be based on reality. Moreover, it should be based on competition. Competition is the key here. For example, WWE could create a storyline based on what wrestler is more agile apart from what wrestler is stronger than the others. Such storylines help WWE fans to decide who could be their next favourite wrestler. What do you think?
