And yet you still watch it every week. Why watch something you hate? Because I like a good deal of people on the current roster and hope, even if the storylines are terrible, that there will at least be a good match or two. Beyond that, I also watch Raw each week with the hope that this'll finally be the week they turn everything around. It was the same way I treated Sons of Anarchy during its last two seasons.

Well I'm sorry the quote went over your head and you took such great offense to it. If you watch it and don't like it fine. I think it's really unnecessary for the people who start off saying they haven't watched RAW/Impact in so and so long then proceed to bash the latest episode whenever anyone likes it. It's a weekly thing of negative and this mentality of everything sucks, but they didn't watch it though. officialfan.proboards.com/thread/526278/impact-raw-week this is what you said about raw last week "RAW bored me so bad it took me 3 attempts to finish watching as I kept falling asleep. Fact." yet your having a dig at people for not enjoying the current product Yeah last week RAW was absolute crap and I thought Impact was better. I got crapped on for that in the TNA forum last week. I enjoyed RAW this week. What exactly is the point you're trying to make?

Worse still he is dominating the guy who beat Undertakers streak, The guy who was a former UFC champion and a Guy they have spent a great deal of time building up as an unbeatable beast. I wouldn't necessarily call "hitting guy with a finisher as part of a group beatdown" domination. Look, this isn't addressed at you specifically, but some people really need to get some damn perspective on this Kane thing. Is he insanely overprotected somehow? Yes. Is he incredibly stale at this point of his career? Yes. Does the fact that he was able to hit his finisher on Brock Lesnar in a group beatdown automatically indicate "Kane >>> Lesnar" and that Kane can beat him in a one-on-one setting? NO. Kane's probably going to appear on RAW next week and get murked by Lesnar, just like J&J Security did this week, and it will be like that beatdown never happened. So why do it? Not only that but they even had them do the shield setup. If they had weapons I'd be fine but Brock should be able to handle these scrubs. As for Kane beating Lesnar you are correct, but with WWE having this weird fetish for booking him in main angles, I wouldn't put it past them.

Why watch something you hate? if someones willing to watch a wrestling show (a 3 hour one at that) they are not particularly fond off with the hopes of seeing at least one good match it means they love wrestling I love comedy. When "The Office" started to stuck I stopped watching. These people who hate the majority of what WWE puts out really need to do the same, because when they come online to bitch about a product they hate, who do they have to blame but themselves?

These people who hate the majority of what WWE puts out really need to do the same, because when they come online to bitch about a product they hate, who do they have to blame but themselves? comparing a 20 minuite comedy show. to a 5 hours plus a week wrestling company is completely ridiculous. with todays technology i can fast forward the parts i dont like to get to the parts i do which im sure is how most people dissatisfied with the current product watch because they love wrestling also they want to know whats going on in the biggest wrestling company in the world because they love wrestling and for you to tell people to stop watching really pisses me off. If people complain about something on a tv show who are you to say they shouldnt? its their free time and their passion if we truly didnt like wwe we wouldnt be on here talking about it and wanting it to be better would we?

To everyone who is like, "Why watch something that makes you so angry? If its soooo terrible, why bother watching it?"
I think of it like this: I'll watch any number of shitty movies if I like the actors. Evern if I KNOW a movie's gonna be trite or fairly generic, if I can see actors I know are super talented perform, I'll give it a watch probably.
Same goes for a lot of people and WWE.

Makes no sense to me. If I think a creative product stinks, I'm not going to subject myself to it because I've liked the performers in something else. If something sucks it sucks, and forcing myself to watch it, or even worse, forcing myself to watch it and then complain about it, is silly. Life's too short for that.

I've seen plenty of films where the story and direction were sub-par or just outright stupid, but the actors CRUSHED it. Wrestling, like movies, can be a many-nuanced thing and trying to overlap how YOU specifically enjoy something with how someone else enjoys it - now THAT is silly and is something life is truly too short for.

The big reason to follow Raw week in and week out even when it's usually making you miserable is that every now and then, you get a flash of brilliance. Wrestling's quality is a fickle thing and can vary wildly even segment to segment, much less show to show. At any time you could get something classic.
Granted, you do not get it often enough for my tastes. Most of the past few years I've had a period where I stopped watching for an extended period of time; as it stands not watched since Money in the Bank and not planning to watch again until someone other than Rollins, Lesnar, Reigns, or Sheamus has the belt, though I might make allowances for something huge happening or the Authority storyline mercifully f***ing ending already. Getting my wrestling fix from ROH.

You're a butt and you stink...like a butt. Agreed, totally see it. Whaaaaa? No, really? I just double checked, I think it's closer to 18, but still holy shit, there are fans who are of drinking age who didn't witness Austin's face turn (the best face turn in history?)

Surprising even with the bump here how quickly things change.
Three weeks later, and now Owens will no longer be the next US Champ and, at best case, he's in the same level of Orton and Sheamus. Brock Lesnar's separate and Undertaker's there. John Cena will be the number one face for a long time, it's a formality he beats Rollins for number 16 at Summerslam...and now, given Hogan's issues and a clear way to truly get Hogan out of the record books, it's equally likely Sheamus cashes in just so that Cena can break Flair's record at Night of Champions.
...yeah, what side's the "frustrated" on?

Hogan and Flair have made such asses out of themselves over the years it's fitting damage control that Cena solidifies himself as the greatest WWE Superstar of all time. Outside the ring all he does is make a wishes and bang Nikki Bella so nothing wrong with that in my book.

Just watched the first half and found it way more entertaining than episodes from the past half year or so (the ones I saw)
Paige/Sasha, Rusev/Summer/Lana and even the Authority opener were good
Matadores/Dragons and Show/Ambrose I didn't care
Pretty sure Owens/Orton and Cena/Rollins wasn't too shabby neither
