This is why we have the Network for $9.99. To not see BullSh*t we see every damn week now. I just go back and watch anything 1997-09. And 2011, because this new product is garbage. 97-2000 is an extremely overrated period. It's better than whatever we get now a days. If you can even call Smackdown a show anymore, it's just a recap/glorified house show. As I said in the Smackdown thread, it proved, beyond a shadow of a doubt, how little WWE cares about Smackdown. It's a total and complete joke. They have no reason too, people still watch even with no effort put in. |

I'll agree about Smackdown these days, but disagree about the overall product. Main events were better back then, but the undercard is much better now. |

You mean the weekly 6 man tags with Usos/dust bros? Or the Miz/ziggler weekly match? No stories, repetitive matches and no one that can even touch a microphone without embarrassing themself. |

Best part about the Rock/HHH interaction is that neither was actually at Smackdown and they taped that during Raw.

Well if she's head of advertising or something like that, I don't think she'd have anything to do with the main shows apart from her segments. Isn't the guy who played Ranjin Singh head writer for RAW? I blame him and the 15 other or whatever is writers for the s#!t shows. You can't blame the writers, because Vince has to approve the show and sometimes rewrites it hours before it goes live. I know that Vince has final say on whatever happens, but the 15 writers for the main shows is way too much. I would cut it down to a smaller team to write a better functioning script, instead of butting heads all the time and Vince rejecting who knows how many different things before RAW. |

The reason I ask that is because literally every post you make is just bitching and moaning and I'm wondering why you'd watch what you clearly don't like in the first place. |

I haven't watched Smackdown in several weeks, but just decided to watch this one. I actually enjoyed it...I found it more entertaining than the majority of recent RAWs, TBH.

Well, yes I do watch but I skip quite a bit. I watch for Wyatt and Ambrose. All of my favorites get ruined except for Punk, that's why I'm so bitter. I'm a sandow, barrett and Wyatt fan. Outside of those 3 and Ambrose everyone else is irrelevant. I kinda like Rollins and Bryan but I'd fire them to get sandow or barrett a world title push. |

I appreciate your passion for the guys you like, but I feel that Rollins and Bryan > Sandow and Barrett. Not saying I don't like Barrett and Sandow, because I do, but I prefer the other two guys and feel they have higher potential. |

I really think if Barrett could stay healthy, he'd get there. He keeps getting hurt in the middle of what look like pushes. If the titles weren't unified I could see him being WHC, but with the current layout it may never happen unfortunately. Wyatt still has a shot though, but he needs a really enticing program. Wyatt's gimmick doesn't work great against midcarders which I think is hindering his progress a lot. |

Wyatt's gimmick doesn't work great against midcarders which I think is hindering his progress a lot. Barrett wasn't injured until about 2 years past his debut, long past any momentum he had. He was never going to win mitb this year, because he'd fail the cash in, the people that hold the belt with only one are an exclusive group that Barrett and Wyatt don't/won't ever have memberships too. I could have seen him holding when there was 2, but now he's a mid carder for life. Wyatt, you're rigit doesn't work in the mid card but he's doomed because Vince is bored of him and likes harper because he's big, so there's that. |
