This might have been asked before, but I'm just curious. It seems as if nowadays, the actual wrestling has gotten better, men and women. But that is just me. I pay more attention to the wrestling than the storylines.

Tough question  I still like the "what are they going to do now?" aspect of it, despite 99 times out of 100 the follow-up is either predictable and/or disappointing. The general in-ring action is always good, but I wish it was made feel more "special", possibly by using their talent sparingly. Oh and video/hype packages rule. Actually they're SO good I could skip watching the weekly episodes and getting excited about the PPV match just watching the recap videos. |

Im not gonna go the obvious route, but the most exciting thing in wrestling for me currently was the picture of the "staredown" between Edge & Christian

I like alot of stuff. Some stuff in no order would be Matt Hardy's heel turn, Evan Bourne, Randy Orton Champion again, possible start of a big push for MVP, SmackDown's new roster, Matt Stirker, Josh Mathews, Todd Grisham all getting shots to be announcers and Striker really becoming, if not the best color man in wrestling right now. So much stuff.

A majority really.
Smackdown looks to be as good as any brand on WWE has EVER been.

SmackDown as a whole. The entire main event and upper-midcard scene looks amazing now.

Being at the ECW/SD tapings this past Tuesday, I must say both shows are really solid. Nothing really spoilery (at least for us Americans), but Morrison as a face will be kinda eye-opener and can definitely lead to fresh matchups.
Commander Kozlov though is a facepalm.

The wrestling is still too slow and boring for me to make the effort and watch every week. Seems like every show I see only has one match that I actually enjoy. And out of two hours, that ain't good.

Yeah, what WAS up with Commander Kozlov all of the sudden? I remember he used to do run ins wearing regular attire and he looked pretty sharp too. All of the sudden, he's shows up from two decades ago.

I think its moving in the right direction. The last two PPVs were very good, and I like the fact that they seem to be moving Miz, Morrison, and MVP into main event roles. Also, I love that they've resigned Gail Kim, as she's one of the best female wrestlers I've seen in quite some time.

I'll add Cody Rhodes to my list of things I've enjoyed recently. I thought Ted's little bit of Promo time with MVP last monday really showed how much he needs to improve...then Cody grabbed the mic and really showed some flashes of being a natural.

To be honest I enjoy the majority of the things on the shows lately, I haven't hated anything outside of some Triple H stuff and he's out for a bit apparently.
Things I've enjoyed the most; Consistent high production values, Randy Orton, Santina, Cody's promo talent, The Miz's development, Swagger, Edge, Big Show, the pay offs to feuds have been great lately...it's just been a very good package lately and blows away any competition.
