Quick, bring out the Legends! Shawn Michaels can now ask for more zeroes in his contract.

I get it, it's a tough time of the year.
I mean, Monday Night Football is on...and Monday Night Kickoff, SportsCenter at midnight, Hannity, Rachel Maddow, Tucker Carlson, Last Word, The Story, Special Report, The Ingraham Angle, The Five, Dancing With The Stars, Big Bang Theory, The Voice, The Resident, and Penn & Teller.

So much for the claim WWE is the best it's ever been. I mean the TV show may suck a dick but that shouldn't dictate the roster. WWE potentially has the greatest roster ever with the worst ever ratings. What the is going on?

I enjoy Raw and don't understand why everyone hates it. It's not as bad as people make out.

Anybody who watches 3 hours of Raw (which includes at least 14 ad breaks) on a Monday night deserves a medal. I watch 'This Week' on a Friday and every PPV and even at that I feel like I see more than enough of the current product.

Vince got his $205-265 million/yr TV deals and Saudi Arabia money by doing the same old cookie-cutter $#!+ for how many years now? Nothings going to change.

WWE potentially has the greatest roster ever with the worst ever ratings. What the is going on? Or... MAYBE the roster is by far the worst it's ever been. Everyone is the same. The same moves, walks, talks and looks. Nobody has any legitimate marketability to a mainstream audience aside from the few guys who have been there well over a decade. You can count the number of people anybody will remember in 10 years time on one hand. Every facet of the product could not be any worse. But most of all the roster.

People still care about ratings? Y’all sound like WCW in the 90’s lol

Story lines.
In the Attitude Era everyone had a story line. Everyone had some sort of importance. There were backstage segments for guys who weren't wrestling, or inter-changeable feuds taking place. Now, same old crap each week and even on the PPVs. No real story line to anything, just, "here is this guy vs. this guy, you will now see this for the next 3 weeks in a row on Raw, and on the PPV and on two Raw shows after the PPV!"

I watched long enough for the opening segment this week. Once I saw it was a crapshow of Dolph/Drew trying to get Dean to turn on the Shield, Boredom Corbin was in the main event and WWE was promoting Triple H's response to the Undertaker that would inevitably lead to HBK giving his rebuttal the week after, and then Taker giving his rebuttal to Shawn and Hunter's rebuttal the following week, it was easy to flip the channel to MNF.
Couldn't agree more with someone who posted above, I feel like if I hadn't watched Raw for the past 5 weeks I really wouldn't have missed anything exciting.

Since Summer Slam we have had Braun and Beck Lynch tow popular faces turned heel. for no other reason than to protect Charlotte and Roman the chosen ones. Or wwe having Bobby Roode and Chad Gable wrestle the The Ascension for the fourth week in a row . Since you harp on it let's talk about Becky. Shes still over if more so. She was doing nothing of note as a face. She feels fresh, her feuds feel fresh, lets check those YT views.. high thousands and some in the millions. But yeah turning her was a horrible idea.

From what I've seen from watching the big 4 events, IMO this is what is wrong with today's product...
Horrible announcers
All the guys today have real names( What happened to originality? Wrestling NEEDS characters/personalities. Without em we get bland guys like we see today.)
All this LED BS( Remember the good ol' days when ppv sets looked awesome and the ring had traditional aprons and posts? Not anymore...)
Crap storylines
Raw being 3 hours
Terrible tag teams
Nothing feels compelling anymore
I can go on and on but I'll leave it at this.
In closing I'm not surprised Raw got the lowest rating in the shows history. The rating represents the product as a whole...Atrocious.

Agree on all of it and it's sadly the way Jim Cornette perfectly put it with the pro-wrestling business. 'We can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.'
