I've kinda soured on the product since Over The Limit and have considered taking a break lately (just from WWE not any other wrestling) but there's been two things keeping me from taking that break at the minute. Money in the Bank is one since it has proven to be (so far) a consistently great PPV. So I thought I'd hang around and take advantage of Sky having it on free TV and watch that. Then there's RAW 1000, and as painfully awful as RAW has been for me to watch in the past few months I can't help wonder what stops the WWE will pull out at RAW1000. They are bound to do something special, right?
So I guess the point this long-winded ramble is trying to get to, is what do you think is bigger/more important/more "must-see"? Is it the PPV or RAW1000? Whether it be from what you think the company believes is more important or what you personally think is bigger.

I have to think that Raw 1K is going to be the biggest thing they've done in forever.
Sadly, I have that much hype built into it, so I'm pretty much guaranteed to be let down no matter how awesome it is.
At least it's free! :-)

Raw 1000, it's not even close. I do expect Money in the Bank to be decent though.
It doesn't really matter what they do at Raw 1000 though, what matters the most is how they follow it up.

The PPV will probalby have better wrestling, but Raw will have a ton of nostalgic value. I'd probably watch the Raw first just to see everyone that they'll bring back.

I'm amazed at how people's expectations are high for Raw 1000. If anything, outside of cameos, a few clips and patting themselves on the back, I don't think the show will have anything memorable about it at all.

They've built it up more than any show in the last three years or so sans Wrestlemania 28.

Yeah, I think MITB will be solid but WWE is going balls deep out for RAW 1000. I expect something major to go down there.

The only thing I'm interested in from Raw 1000 is the return of Lesnar. I'm never all that excited in seeing all the old-timers that we see on a regular basis anyway make their return, and I think that's what the show will mainly revolve around. The WWE will go all out on this one show to boost ratings, then it'll be back to auto-pilot the next week. Typical short term thinking by the WWE.

I think MITB will be a better show as far as in-ring work is concerned. Raw 1,000 will possibly be more entertaining but with more skits/talking segments than wrestling -- though there's always a chance it will be a total clusterf***, as good 3 hour Raws are few and far between.

Raw 1000 is a milestone for WWE. Money in the Bank is your average, run of the mill pay-per-view.

Raw 1000. A show can only hit a major landmark like that once every few years. And with WWE bragging for AGES now that it'll be the first show to hit 1K episodes, get ready. You can cross your fingers on the quality, but whichever direction it goes it will be a bigger success/disaster than MiTB could possibly be.

I'm looking forward to MitB more. Raw 1000 sounds like it'll be mostly talking and clips of past shows.

MiTB will be good, no doubt, but has a tough act to follow from last year's all-around excellent edition. Raw 1000 looks like it'll be great.

RAW 1000 will be must-see. I fully expect the big summer angle that everyones been clamoring for to be revealed.

Yeah, WWE is gonna put everything they got into Raw 1000. I fully expect them to just cram as much explosions, cameos, promos, and finishing moves as they can into 3 hours.

MITB is basically the go-home show for RAW1000. This week's Raw will be awful.
