Raw or Smackdown

SmackDown just manages to flow it's show a lot better, it's not always great but almost every segment and match feels progressive towards storylines and feuds. Plus The Miz is awesome.

SmackDown by far. There is a seamless flow between matches and everybody is well used without overexposing them.

Not to mention, I can't get enough of Charly Caruso. Her interview style gives SmackDown that legit sports-like feel to the show.

I can't end this with noting how good The Miz has been as of late. So glad he is being given the chance to add another layer to his persona.

Smackdown by far. It's weird too though, RAW has a solid roster. Creative/writing are the difference makers.

Smackdown by miles and miles! Smackdown flows as a show and has storylines for almost every feud going. I love the quicker matches you get on Smackdown, and that almost every match has meaning to it on Smackdown. Also the announcers are a million times better on better Smackdown than they are on RAW, and DB and Shane are doing a lot better the Mick and Steph.

I was pretty much done watching WWE on TV and really only watching the PPVs until the brand split, and I must say that Smackdown has made me a full fan again (I look forward to Smackdown every week now). I DVR Raw, but I never see much on that show that grab my attention. I have tried watching a few live RAWs since SummerSlam and I'm usually sick of it before the first hour even ends. The booking of Raw and Smackdown are so different that its hard to believe that they both fall under the WWE banner.

Smackdown by too many miles to count. Smackdown has just been the overall standout brand since the draft. Usos heel turn, Miz's brilliance, Styles as champ, American Alpha, Slater, Becky, etc... Smackdown has just made the most out of all the guys on their roster. Alexa Bliss as a Womens contender, Carmella heel turn when face wasn't working, etc... Id say the only ones getting the shaft right now are Vaudevillians and Breezango. Which in the Vaudevillians case is not entirely surprising considering the number of run-ins Simon Gotch has had since debuting, and the reports of him being a giant douche backstage.

Raw is just an absolute train wreck and has become a show where Ive just been reading the results for the last two weeks. Raw (despite having an extra hour) just doesn't seem to know what to do with their roster that isn't named Owens, Reigns, or Rollins. Jericho is pure gold right now, yet kind of seems to be nothing more than a prop when they need him in an Owens segment. As said above, the show continues to be all about an Authority hand picked champion, and we all know we're heading into a Stephanie heel move that will likely screw over Foley.

Guys like Zayn, Neville, Enzo/Cass, Darren Young, etc... just have no direction to them whatsoever since the split. We've seen flashes here and there of what they could be doing but no one ever seems to pull the trigger on putting them in a meaningful feud. Others like the Club and Bayley have been booked to look like complete schmucks that their character is gonna have a tough time if not an impossible one (in the case of the Club) to make a comeback. And then there's Sheamus and Cesaro, who clearly also had nothing better to do with their characters than wrestle in a meaningless best of 7 series, only to book themselves into a corner by putting them together as a tag team that will never work and really underwhelming wastes the talent of Cesaro.

The Womens division is a mess. Bayley debuts then is booked to lose just about every match except two, when she could be the face of the Raw Womens division. Sasha has been passed by so many times with a title run that I honestly don't care anymore if she wins it or not. And just about every woman on the roster can't cut a promo to save their life. I'd rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than listen to another Charlotte/Dana promo. As much as I don't like Nia Jax, I question what they're doing with her either. She's steamrolled just about everyone but yet hasn't been in the title picture...how?

Long story short, I will continue to watch Smackdown and return to watching Raw once I start hearing things have changed from the painfully boring status quo.

easily Smackdown.

I've been saying SmackDown's the better show since the first week of the brand split and I'm glad people are finally seeing it. Raw's roster sucks and the show is an absolute drag. SmackDown's roster is amazing and the show flies by, yesterday I was like "Wow, is it main event time already?"

Comparing raw to smackdown is like comparing a turd to a sunrise.

Smackdown by a landslide.



Seriously, someone invoke the Mercy Rule because Raw is done and over with in this competition thus far.
