I really *REALLY* do not like the new set.
- The "titantron" part of it is not centered. - The left hand erect structure is random and un-needed. - The "sun-bed bar" above the structure is again, random and un-needed. - The wrestler entrance part is hidden and just looks like they've stumbled in
I'm sure theres plenty of people who like it, hell I was DYING to love it, I was excited, however I feel gravely disappointed.
The old Raw set was boring looking, no doubt, I'd have liked it to have been made over to accomodate the new LCD system they've got going on.

Thought the new one was a lot better. I had a real dislike for the old Raw set, I associated that with the time that crowds started reacting as much and the product took a general down turn. That may be totally irrational of me but I just found it uninspiring.
This new one will make all 3 shows feel big again, and it just looks more futuristic. I'm all for it, and I'm not really that bother about symmertry or centering - I don't consider them imperative to a good set.

Check WWE.comt here's an assload of pictures on there. The set was very underwhelming, for what I was expecting. I voted no, because even though I disliked the old Raw set (just after so long now), I really didn't like this one at all. It just looks ... well, not good in my opinion.

RAW needs a new set, but it shouldn't have ended up as a universal one.

I like it, it's a refreshing change from a set that has generally been the same (with minor alterations) for the last 10 years.

Very flashy, a lot to look at. It's great.

I am indifferent. Maybe I am just afraid of change when it comes to my wrestling. Even if it is just a Set. Maybe down the road I will come to love it.

I was lukewarm on it until Jericho made his entrance and I saw the "SAVE_US.Y2J" on the top lightbar.
I thought it was awesome at that point.

I really like what it does. It serenades the viewer with so much color that you can really create a particular mood as a wrestler is coming down the ramp. That, and it really screams "welcome to the top of the industry" with its grandeur.

Well see I hadn't seen said top lightbar at all yet (started watching the show about 20 minutes in) and I thought it was cool how they were using the set to its full advantage for entrances

All the LEDs screens look great from far away, but when the camera zooms in, the "pixel" effect is awful. Maybe it doesn't look so bad in HD... but in normal def it's horrible.
The set is ok. a bit on the "too much" side, but whatever...

I think after a bit they'll have some specific graphics for each wrestler for each little video section, and then you'll all be thinking it's awesome.
By the looks of the special things they had going for each wrestler on each screen, it looked like temporary filler, colored to match the wrestler's colors.

it has great potential imo.
I kinda wish the WWE logo was bigger. The cylinder on the left side seems kinda pointless but I'm not sure why. The top bar is a cool concept.
I also like how they are using all the screens they have available.
If I could change one thing, I'd have made the ramp a screen too.

I like it. Especially since Mickie got her own set and VINCE didn't.

I LOVE the new set. Seriously.
And not just because I detested the last Raw set from day one.
Everything about the new set is awesome, awesome stuff.
