"It was hard" - Triple H's booking of WWE's main roster draws criticism from veteran
Triple H's WWE regime is set to enter a new year with new changes on the horizon. Recently, WCW veteran Konnan criticized The Game's booking of the tag team and women's divisions on the main roster.
WWE's main roster is filled with talented athletes across the globe performing every week on Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown. Over the past few years, many stars have flourished and become notable names in the Stamford-based promotion under Triple H's creative leadership.
However, Konnan feels there's an issue with certain divisions. Speaking on K100 with Konnan and Disco Inferno, the veteran questioned some of the tag teams' booking choices, such as Pretty Deadly and A-Town Down Under. Moreover, he stated that the tag team and the women's divisions aren't booked well currently.
"Whatever happened to Pretty Deadly or A-Town Down Under? I was going to say maybe it was hard to push everybody at the same time. Maybe he's got priorities in the tag team division, but he should know better because he was part of DX, which had a lot of good tag team matches. I think the tag teams aren't booked well, and most of the women aren't either," Konnan said. [From 28:08 - 28:40]

SmackDown goes three hours from January under Triple H's WWE regime
Earlier this year, all three shows returned or moved to new networks as RAW, SmackDown, and NXT signed new deals. While Friday Night SmackDown and NXT switched networks, Monday Night RAW went global as Netflix acquired their streaming rights.
A few months ago, the red brand returned to a two-hour format for the weeks to come in 2024. Meanwhile, the blue brand isn't far away, as Michael Cole announced in the most recent edition that the show will adopt a three-hour format similar to its counterpart starting in 2025.
These significant changes took place under Triple H's creative leadership in WWE, who books and produces these shows weekly with the rest of his creative team. It'll be interesting to see what's next for The Game in 2025.
