... I would have liked it a whole lot more if Raw was 2 hours and not 3 hours.
The ending with Ambrose and Rollins would have been a lot more exciting if Raw wasn't so long. By then the fans are burnt out, I know I am burnt out from just sitting at home watching it. And it's nice that they are finally using Ambrose in the right way that they should have been using him from the start.
He is this era's Steve Austin, just toned down a bit. And it's nice to see Reigns and Ambrose together again... which they should have been the entire time anyhow. Just cause Seth left the Shield didn't mean Reigns and Ambrose had to not be together anymore. It's like WWE really has no idea what they are doing at times with story lines.
Anyway, that is my rant about Raw.
Anyone else like what they are doing now with Ambrose??

You want less wrestling? Skip the first / last hour then.

This is probably going to come off as sarcastic but this is a serious question... Has any Raw ever benefited from being three hours? Have any of you ever said "Thank god that was three hours. There's no way they could have crammed that much show into two hours" ??

Raw being only 2 hours would do me so, so many favours. Staying awake from 1:00am until 4:00am every Monday is basically a form of torture.

Three hours burns out the audience. I think two or even a one hour Raw would be nice, but the. They'd have to neatly fit in promos and angle work with wrestling and there is far too much jumbo jumbo around in wwe nowadays to make a neat, succinct show.

Some nights 3 hours is too long, but it didn't bother me last night. I enjoyed the majority of the show.
New Day, Owens, Ambrose, Authority, Neville, Ziggler, Roman, & Cena's open challenges have all been weekly highlights.

I enjoyed RAW last night. I love the Ambrose - Rollins feud, they could feud non-stop for the next 5 years and I wouldn't complain.

3 Hour Raw's are a torture to watch.

There will never be another Austin but Ambrose is the closest thing we have to an Austin type character.
He is this era's Ambrose.

I usually like Raw, but last night was very boring IMO. Just weak segments, predictable, and I feel nothing really changed.
I love Ambrose, so anytime Ambrose is near the title picture, it's exciting for me. But I feel roman will turn heel Sunday, and cost Ambrose the victory at the last second. Because why would reigns suddenly keep "helping" Ambrose...
And I wish Raw was 2 hours. Hell, I'd even take it if it was from 8-10. It's sometimes dragging to watch, especially with a weak show. I feel though, every raw after mania has been great, with the exception of yesterday.

I don't know. This'll probably come off as stupid but I feel like the three hours is a good excuse for Raw to be lacking once in a while. Like if the show sucked and it were two hours we'd be up in arms like "they had more than enough time to do stuff and they didn't do it well." But if the show was ehh and it was three hours, 1) there's usually one soul bright spot that people can say "okay that wasn't that bad, saved the show from being a total dud," and 2) we can say "well, they had too much time so they spent it doing things that didn't work."
For the most part, Raw has been moderately entertaining consistently since moving to three hours. Not every show's firing on all cylinders from the opening video package to the closing credits, but there haven't been many, if any, that had less than a handful of enjoyable segments. And every now and then we're treated with a Raw that's mind-bogglingly insane--like the past three years' post-Wrestlemania shows. That show budded in 2012 (when Raw was 2 hours), but imploded in 2013 (the first three-hour 'Mania recap show), zoomed into the stratosphere last year in terms of excitement, and landed safely in Mars with this years'.

You know what I didn't like at all?
Ryder giving the Killswitch and the commentators didn't acknowledge Christian. I mean the guy only used it for 10+ years.

3 Hours of RAW is horrible. I kinda like what there doing with Ambrose but they need to tone down the "lunatic" gimmick he's like a drunken male version of psycho Mickie on crack... I would totally book the show differently. Tamina had horrible ring rust. |

Raw was great.
I wanted to see Ambrose break out of jail.
Roman Reigns could have Superman Punched through the wall of the prison.
