...that can even remotely begin to make up for how much they've been blatantly spinning their wheels creatively in the build to it?
Seriously, since the beginning of summer, we've had practically two full throwaway PPVs in the grand scheme of things (including MitB, since there's basically nothing at all riding on it vs the same show last year) including their respective builds, and honestly since Over the Limit it seems it's been nothing but them saying "What's going on now isn't important, but Raw 1000 will be!".
Unless Vince has got something so big planned that he doesn't possibly want anything in the lead-up to it to overshadow it, I just don't get why they've been pretty much wasting shows this whole time. I mean, from what we've heard of Vince, continuity, and micromanaging (though I'll give them credit for being better with continuity references lately), apparently whatever's going to happen doesn't deserve foreshadowing or really anything because apparently that three hour Raw will be good enough.
That's all assuming it doesn't turn into a self-fellating Raw-centric or WWE-centric version of Rock's Birthday.
I just really don't think anything that could possibly happen short of like Benoit coming back from the dead could possibly justify all the time and TV hours that've been wasted.
