    Just tie Reigns in with Joe and Rollins feud and then bring back brock into the fold and make it a 4 way at great ? of fire. Boom. Match could end with someone other than lame ass Roman getting covered by Brock. Rollins would be the safest choice

    It would have been better if they both were injured. Same amount of time off.. then they can show promos of both of them getting ready to battle each other next ppv. Sorta like rocky IV.

    Vince stopped being a money hungry hoe ass ? people would stop gettin hurt so damn much 300 plus house shows a year come on ?

    I told y'all WWE needs a legit offseason​ after WrestleMania.

    This will allow for writers to be prepared for dope storyline angles, for wrestlers to heal up any injuries and be with family more, and for other talents to work on their craft and review themselves in the off-season.

    Can you imagine how dope it would be for Roman Reigns to defeat the Undertaker, have a two month offseason, work on his gimmick, add more moves to his moveset, and comes back to as a new and improved wrestler?

    Think about the hype and ratings and how they can market the Raw after the off season, this would actually make WWE look more like a respected sport then "fake".

    think of all the ticket revenue wwe sees per week for hosting raw and smackdown.
    don't forget the ppv's they host every three weeks. and the merchandise being sold at these events

    vince ain't tryna let that go

    With a offseason, hype will generate more sold out shows.

    an event that's only 70-80% filled will still bring in more money than not hosting said event to begin with

    i do agree there needs to be some sort of a break though

    There's plenty of people on the roster where they can take a month or two off . Have other people in too then let them come back

    Rotate rosters, no off-season. Give some guys a month or so off and push new guys.

    You also have to understand that WWE runs a unique business model. They are the only entertainment company that runs 52 weeks a year that gives them an advantage.

    If you sacrifice that advantage you ? with not just house show and merchandise money but TV revenue and people letting their network subs lack because nothing is happening.

    Just sit some guys out for about a month or so then come back strong for Summerslam. The Summer is ? anyway.

    This will rotate. Whenever the main roster is off , more focus can he shifted to NXT, and hyping up returns, how wrestlers can bounce back from a "down season" or predicting dope new angles or wrestlers that may debut.

    WWE is bound to be the power capital of all wrestling promotions. With the launch of their new woman's show, potential buy of ROH, and their united kingdom show , the attention will be shifted equally to their other brands, which will help their Network subscriptions, as well build new stars from their other promotions.

    This can really work beneficial for everyone.

    WWE main problem is over exposure, staleness, low ratings, and most importantly health issues. With bad fate of previous wrstlers, Vince is only operating on Greed. He can actually make this work if he really wanted too. Thank about how diverse this can be, they can LEGIT have multiple leauges running, and drafting new talents to the main roster, while having dope off season storyline angles and hype packages videos of wrestlers and what they plan on to do to launch their new season better.

    This way, Vince can FINALLY launch is Sports center style show that can help build long, authentic, and natural feuds, builds, and character development for alot of guys.

    With this formula, just imagine what ? like Apollo Crews can do with it.

    Id be cool with an offseason,them dudes need it, but im also cool with just giving dudes time off, seems like the only way to get decent time off is if you get injured or you got outside business ? going on like movies, shows etc, or get that brock lesner contract
