The only modern WWE that I watch is the Royal Rumble every year and maybe the main event of Wrestlemania. This is an observation that I noticed around the time of Covid, but I think it is still applicable. The camera angles change appx. every 5 seconds. You never see the same camera angle during a wrestling move. For instance, you will be watching Camera 1 when a wrestler initiates a dropkick, but then it will switch to Camera 2 upon impact of the dropkick. I think the reason for this is to cover up botches so you can't see if there is actually no contact. But the problem is that it is like watching a match in a strobe light. It makes me feel at unease to watch. Am I the only person who is bothered by this, or is it a common complaint?

It's still gonna take some time to completely eradicate that Kevin Dunn stench sadly... but we are gonna get it all away eventually... (hopefully)

And that's for the whole business btw...

Yeah, it’s nothing like that really anymore, way less camera cuts in the last year and a half or so it seems like.
