WWE fans have a way of deciphering things like who the company sees as a top star and in whom they are not much invested. If a top star is somehow excluded from a promotional poster or any material, it does get the fans to sense that a particular star may not be highly valued. Something similar happened recently. As WWE has recently updated their superstar advertising banner, fans are calling out at the promotion as a major former champion has been snubbed from the poster. Could the Chief Content Officer of WWE, Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque be responsible for it?
WWE has a plethora of top talent in its ranks, so it is hard to fit in everyone in its promotional banner. Still, the exclusion of a top star irked the fans.
