-Most of the Summerslam matches have a decent buildup.
-Almost every superstar on all 3 rosters are getting some decent TV time
-There are a lot of mini feuds going on (Kevin Thorn Vs Stevie Richards, Miz Vs Balls, Viscera Vs Boogeyman, Murdoch/Cade Vs Cryme Time Vs London/Kendrick, Santino/Maria/Farouq, WGTT Vs Cody, MVP Vs Matt, Noble Vs Hornswaggle)
Now sure, there are a lot of problems with the WWE, but I think the current product is better than it's been in a while. Anyone else agree?

It's slowly getting a little better. Smackdown on Friday was the first one i watched in about a few months, and it was actually pretty good. I know alot of people might disagree but to me ECW is the A show right now. Raw is falling.

I don't think it's getting better at all. The main event scene on RAW and SmackDown is probably the worst and least entertaining that it's been in several years, the tag team titles, IC Title and Cruiserweight title have all been completely burried and made meaningless, and I can honestly say outside of Punk/ Nitro, there isn't one feud I truly care about. Not to mention, backstage politics are probably at an all time worse if what you read online is true.
ECW's roster has by far the most talent. If the WWE was smart, they'd expand on that and use more of their stars in larger roles, but I don't see it happening.

Anyway, yes WWE RAW and ECW are much better. I actually enjoy seeing new faces and more entertainment. Smackdown, other than Kane and Taker needs to die. That show is so ing worthless.

I don't think it's improving. It's nowhere near decent right now except for the odd feud.

Well... I just watch SmackDown! because of MVP, Edge and Matt Hardy.
RAW is the show I watch the most, since here in Mexico they don't show ECW

WWE isn't as bad as you all make it out to be. The fact is that you guys are growing out of it. If you were, per say, 10, you would love the current product. They are using the same method they have used for years, it's just that you are now too old to fall for it. The super face defeats the giant against the odds. It's classic pro wrestling booking.

Not nessacarily. I can watch older wrestling from 2002 and older and enjoy it. Although you do bring in a good point. I think wrestling has just lost it's prestige now.

But that's another point that you just brought up. I know 2002 is recent past, but when you grow up, things from the past always seem better. It's definitely a nostalgia thing.

Some of you need to really wake up. It's wrestling, take it with a grain of salt. Dissecting every part of every show is just crazy, just relax and take it for what it is, an entertainment show.

Seriously, I hate it when people try and downplay everything that's posted as wrestling news on the internet. You think that all these news sites pull stuff out of thin air? I've got news for you, pal - Randy Orton really is a dick backstage. Triple H really does have a ton of backstage power. Stephanie McMahon really has no idea how to write storylines. You don't need official confirmation for stuff that is blatantly obvious like that.

During this year I actually feel like WWE was never was as bad as people made it out to be, but I agree that all 3 shows have been great, even spectacular as of late. Alot of people that I thought were being underused have been appearing on TV every week now (Shannon Moore, Stevie Richards, Cryme Tyme) and it is nice to see alot more feuds on each show. The segments/promos lately have also been great and they are doing a nice job of making guys who were terrible alot more entertaining (King Bookah, Santino Marella). If WWE continues to follow the format that they are using now and if no more injuries happen, then I can see big things in the near future.
Finally #500

There's alot to why the product is the way it is, and why some people think they way they do. As said earlier it is classic booking in alot of ways and maybe just some of us are starting to grow out of it. At the same time I think the whole Benoit situation took the wind out of alot of people's sails, and now some of us are starting to come back around.
