I agree that RAW is subpar at this point... but I'm still going to watch every week. Me too.

To all the "I;m not watching anymore" guys...GOODBYE!! You little spoiled brats!! "No one is jumping off a cage, while on fire tonight....CM Punk isn't winning the title, or Haas, or Snitsky...I'm not gonna watch" Screw you! Look, I'm 30, lifelong wrestling fan, watched my first Saturday Night Main Event with my dad, when Andre was a heel, and head butted Leapin Lanny Pofo over the top rope, had night mares when they showed him busted wide open. The REAL fans on here, and I have noticed there are not many more of them, we will watch everynight, and have been watching since Superstars on Sat. afternoon, when they only had the jobbers out there. Go away then, cancel your Wrestlecrap account, and be gone!! I like knowing the inside stuff, but I'm a fan first. I don't cry when Cena is on, or a classic Mark Henry/Khali match is on TV. Infact, I envy them because they make millions and are one of the few lucky people who get to be in the WWE. So, turn off your TV, pull the plug on your computer, and stop crying and saying that you won't be watching RAW anymore, because we all know you will be watching...That is all

The level of freak out in this thread, on both sides, is ludicrous.

Don't worry, WWE understands your concerns and know that there's one thing they can do that will turn everything around.
Cena video packages!

The level of freak out in this thread, on both sides, is ludicrous. Especially the post just above yours. I disagree with both sides on certain points, although I tend to fall more on the "Raw generally sucks" side of the line, but jesus, smgalia, overreact much?

Yes. Raw sucks, Smackdown sucks, ECW sucks because it isn't ECW, booking all sucks, characters all suck, PPVs all suck, everything blows. Did I miss anything? Something else everyone has to complain about endlessly? Remember when this board used to be a FUN place to post? Good lord. This is just sad. It still is a fun place to post. For me to tell you all how much I like wrestling and how much emotion and thought I put into it, and then get ruthlessly mocked. I am looking forward to Raw, and if it sucks, I will be looking forward to discussing that.

When watching WWE these days the best thing to do is to go into it with the lowest expectations possible, so that you might end up being surprised. Having said that I might just wait till Survivor Series to start watching avidly again. I think the only thing to possibly look forward to before then is the 3 hour Raw next week where we might see something exciting, but don't hold your breath. If something good does happen I'll find it on Youtube. I'll still contribute to the Top 20 matches threads though as they're great for bringing back awesome memories

It might suck tonight, it might be really awesome tonight. So last week there was a confusing Gauntlet match and somebody people dislike on here is now champ, doesn't automatically mean that RAW on the whole will be awful.
I've posted this argument before a few times now; for me the beauty of being a wrestling fan is that there is always an aspect of the product that I am going to like - so maybe there will be a bland Batista promo, on the other hand there will more than likely be a least a couple of really enjoyable matches, and other angles that are compelling and FUN (there's that word) to watch. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but that is mine. If you have no faith left in the product, then tune out - there is nothing wrong with doing that, and you shouldn't get flamed for doing so.

He gets 52 more weeks out of me before I decide to sever the tie for good! Bring up the Fun-o-meter! You see, The Wrestlecrappy boards were fun for a record 64 weeks...

Raw was awesome this summer for about 6 weeks right after the draft. It was unpedictable again and had that "can't miss" feel too it.
Right now i'd agree and say it is in a rut but in fairness, from post summerslam to pre survivor series, that usually happens yearly. Then stuff starts picking up again right before Survivor Series. I'm sure with Cena coming back (and by the look of him last night, maybe Austin?) this is going to once again be the case.....

You forgot the part where Batista, Adamle, (insert random interviewer here), the commentators, Steve the Popcorn Vendor in the 5th Row, and everyone else decisively declares that it's unfair for Chris Jericho to ask for ONE title shot (His re-match, no less) even though Batista regularly gets millions of them for no reason. This was the first thing that came to mind.

Raw has been subpar for a few weeks now but the reasons the OP stated aren't the reasons.
Jericho just cannot carry a show.

I'm honestly thinking about not coming to the WWE xection unless I'm checking the SvR thread and spoilers. Can't say a damn thing negative about the product without the Fun police coming out and overreacting every single time.

I'd be interested in seeing if anyone of the legends from last night at Cyber Sunday will be hanging around to get an appearance in.

For the record ive been boycotting (segments) of raw sense adamle arrived, ill just do the same for any batista promo's, i still think this bored is fun, but i guess fun is defined by swallowing the ass sandwhich made by wwe on a weekly basis smile, look at camera left and say " Man that was delicous, watch more wwe *thumbs up*. Regardless i still love this board and forum.
