I haven't watched a full episode of Raw or Smackdown since 2007. If I'm watching TV and either shows happen to be on then I'll watch a couple of matches but I've never fully taken a break from the WWE. Regardless, I'll still order Wrestlemania every year without fail though.

Stopped watching in 2006. Then I got the WWE13 video game and nostalgia hit me hard with the attitude era stuff so I was like hey… wonder what's going on with WWE now. Then realized it wasn't as boring anymore as it was for a while. Then just continued watching.

I'm 15 and my dad loves wrestling so I always grew up with it. But like 4 years ago, I just stopped watching same as my dad. Then after weeks of my older cousin begging me to watch Raw, I did. It was when Jericho returned in 2012. I knew what was happening but I didn't watch a full raw until the night after WM28. Between the crowd YESing and Brock I was hooked all over again.

I stopped sometime at the end of 2007 or early 2008 shortly after Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 came out. I was already growing bored with it and that game being so awful sealed the deal. I stopped buying action figures and the games and I only ever watched every once in a blue moon when nothing else was on. Started watching again semi-regularly in 2010 after the night Bret Hart returned and now I've been watching fairly regularly since Nexus. Not full episodes, but I catch at least an hour or two of Raw every week and keep up with it online.

"I stopped watchng in....." is what all you say... Yet you still buy the figures, the dvds, and still come crawling back. Gotta love it. Yep, that's the point of this thread. Dunno why you had to state the painfully obvious when the topic creator already did.

I stopped watching when they totally butchered the original Nexus angle which could've been HUGE and made a ton of money, It went to sh*t so quickly because of crap booking decisions. When Cena got "fired" and actually appeared on the program more than normal I just stopped watching for a few months.
I have no clue what brought me back to be honest. Nothing I guess.

Ever since the early-mid 90's I watched religiously. I stopped watching late 2008. I didn't start watching again until late 2012. I was in Italy during the summer of 2012 and found out about Raw 1000 when I came back in September. I watched some youtube videos to get back in the circle and watched just about every Monday since then.

I stopped at the very beginning of 2009 as I had lost a lot of interest and I don't remember why. I would catch up every once in a while but . I (no joke) started watching again the July 4th, 2011 episode of RAW (the one after the Pipebomb) because I was bored at the beach and thought, "why not?".

Stopped from like November 2011 to January 2012. Short break but it made me realize how much I appreciate WWE even when it's crap.

I stopped watching from 2006-2008. I would watch a show once in a while but I just lost interest overall. I came back to see Bret Hart's return and have been watching ever since.

Never took a break from WWE. I did take a break from TNA once, wasn't even on purpose. I just legitimately forgot to watch one week and didn't notice till the next week, then I just decided not to watch for a month.

Brock Lesnar got me into it, and then got me back into it when he came back.

"I stopped watchng in....." is what all you say... Yet you still buy the figures, the dvds, and still come crawling back. Gotta love it. Ha you try so hard to start a fight in every thread you post in. Must be nice having so much free time to stir so much sh**. To add to the topic I never really stopped. For a while I didn't watch as much but I've always stuck with it. Even with Punk gone I manage to stay interested.

"I stopped watchng in....." is what all you say... Yet you still buy the figures, the dvds, and still come crawling back. Gotta love it. That's not accurate at all. In 2008 I turned it off and didn't come back until 2011. No merch, no video games, no shirts, nothing. The product was garbage and I didn't support it. In 2011 Punk's pipe bomb caught my attention and I came back. The product is honestly better than it's been in several years. It's not about 'crawling back.' It's about not supporting trash. The product picked up and I was more than happy to go back to enjoying one of the things I love, now that their heads were out of their asses. I wish more people would do it that way. "Call Of Duty sucks." Yea? Well you buy it every year. That's why there's a new game every year. "WWE sucks." Turn it off. Don't support something you don't like. It's simple.

Replying to my post is starting something. Art thou mad?

Stopped around Night of Champions 2010, then got back in around Money in the Bank 2011, my reason you ask? CM Punk.
