from his blog: "Will the WWE announcers break their arms patting themselves on the back when it comes to all the well earned accolades of Monday Night Raw? Watching at home or from a hotel room it gets a little repetitive to hear all the self congratulations that used to irk my late mentor, Gorilla Monsoon. Raw is a phenomenon without question but "I get it." Tell me once an hour and I will be more likely to retain it positively than if I feel as if I am being force fed."
if JR can realize this, why can't vince or anybody of the other dozens of people involved with raw?

Seriously its lke a 10 second clip. If thats seriously a factor on whether your going to watch Raw that night, then you shouldnt be watching.

I agree.. Im getting pissed off and not wanting to watch just because WWE are being smartasses about it. Its like every commerical break and segment. " RAW is the longest running televised program ever" "Raw has most episodes then Simpsons, E.R, Seinfield combined" What they are not mentioning is that the show is the biggest piece of crap in recent history and that their ratings have declined 3/4 in the last 6 years..

But keep in mind that in recent years, more formats of recording or other methods of viewing RAW have become available, like DVR or YouTube. |

No..it's a ten second video clip..and then after the video clip, Michael Cole will yell out the fact for the rest of the night, while yelling "WWE FAN NATION!". |

Its nothing that makes me not want to watch the show, in fact it puts a smile on my face that they do so well or whatever considering how crapty they really are compared to the days we all grew up on. So its whatever to me.
When I hear it or see it I usually chuckle and say "Yeah and ten years ago this came without question and you sold out every arena...big deal". But its whatever.

Why doesnt JR still do that Skittles thing? " SKITTLES SKITTLES, oH BAW GAWD THEY'RE FRUITY SKITTLES!" Lol. I personally dont mind that Raw facts. They remind me of TNA : I remember a Episode where Don West and Tenay talked about the got their highest rating every that previous week. I was impressed...then realized their average rating never get igher than 1.3  |

half of those raw facts are bull **** No, they're all true, they just tend to word them so they sound more special than they actually are. Or something they think is a big accomplishment actually isn't because it's a vague statement. |

He actually yells WWE Universe every 20 seconds. I hate the name WWE Universe. It makes us sound like planets. All you hear from Michael Cole nowadays is "...and the WWE Universe watching at home..." So annoying. Also, the Raw facts are annoying, but I'm not gonna boycott Raw until they stop or something. And Matt Facts do > Raw Facts. "Matt utilizes toilet seat covers" |

Or something they think is a big accomplishment actually isn't because it's a vague statement. Kind of reminds me of all those really specific statistics you hear sports announcers talk about. "Well, he's batting .400 in away games against left-handed pitchers of hispanic origin on overcast Thursdays, let's see if he can..." yeah, shut the hell up. |
