So they're doing something right...or at least I'm watching in the hopes that something will come together lol.

Same, or just tune in for special appearances when they tried to salvage the ratings - only to watch highlights of Raw.
I think it's the very beginning of the stories apart from Cena/Styles so may take a while to settle in. Idk I'm hoping for the best although think it's a shame they won't have exclusive rights to the cruiserweights whereas Raw has a much more dominant roster already.
Why couldn't SD have taken a few more key players. I understand they're trying to make new stars and give others a chance but Kalisto v Corbin v Crews? What is that. Corbin needs solo competition. A decent rivalry besides the prolonged Ziggler feud.
At least they're pushing Apollo though. Similar to Titus and Darren. Shelton returning soon. Opportunities for these men to become the next Booker T, Mark Henry, Bobby Lashley, or dare I say, The Rock. The New Day are great as a team so they're excluded. It's time for a solo competitor to make their mark as a black athlete. It's overdue.
Kalisto did well for the Mexicans, following the absence of Mysterio and passing of Guerrero. Sasha as the first of the new era, and since Foxy including the old title. To think Jacqueline was the first in 1998.
Asian wrestlers are currently in NXT including the first Chinese signing. That's progress.
I really believe in a diverse roster for the audience. It's more realistic and each fan whomever they may be regardless of labels can have a variety of athletes to idolise 🙄
.....Though it's rumoured it won't be until after Summerslam.
