I stopped watching full time right after the Wild Card bs became a thing, I try to catch NXT the day after since I watch AEW live. Had been watching full time since NWO in WCW

It reminds me of the dude who reviews Monday Night Raw on Wrestleview .com and literally all his reviews are him bashing the show and going blah blah blah that womans match was terrible blah blah blah #RAW111 and its like if you hate the show so much why put yourself reviewing it every week.

I don’t.
Having AEW to Watch makes the move SO much easier.

I’ve watched very little of the last two Raws. And I don’t feel the tiniest bit weird about. In the past, whenever I missed Raw, it always felt strange. I’ve watched it for so long, that missing it made the rest of the week feel off. But I really do think that feeling is gone. If I have nothing else going on, I’ll still turn it on, and post in the Raw thread. But the feeling just ain’t the same.

Coincidentally I think I’m done watching WWE at least when it’s on live anymore. I’ll still DVR the shows & just probably fast forward through most of it. It’s just become a miserable experience to keep sitting through these terrible shows live & not being able to fast forward through them. I can’t believe people actually watch it live with the commercials and everything. It’s so much more enjoyable when you’ve taped it. It’s much smarter watching it that way. I’ve only been watching it live since it’s been a many years long habit to tune in live on Mondays. Smackdown is a bit more tolerable since it’s only 2 hours but I’m not watching that live either anymore. I need to break the habit since it’s not worth being miserable watching a show live anymore.

Nxt is wwe and is main roster now So you support wwe OK fine, I don't watch Raw and Smackdown. But I support main roster NXT. For the most part i am watching njpw, sd/nxt, aew, with some aaa and ddt and all japan sprinkled in. There has always been this much wrestling to consume SD and nxt give me enough wwe. And well i fill up on njpw shows and aew. So it is a full plate. I watch a lot of ajpw. But i find noah hard to get through. If anything there is too much to watch. When people complain about an alternative. It always bugged me because there has always been this easily accessible wrestling whether it was streaming or torrents or daily motion. I watched it. People are cord cutting exponentially. But that is me. I believe there is wrestling out there for everybody. But wwe and njpw fit my criteria of big time with good wrestlers

People aren't watching. The ratings are at an all time low. Casuals no, but I’m puzzled why a lot of people here still watch,

I think the only reason I still watch WWE is that I have only watched the PPV's in the last 20 years. I don't hate it, I still watch but the crap is CRAP. Just like rap.

Have we pointed to the 'new record low' thread yet?
I did stop watching. A lot of people did at the same time, like me. And it's only shrinking.

The only full shows I've watched since SummerSlam have been the season premieres, and even then I don't think I watched any full Raws or SmackDowns between the post-Mania ones and then.

Also, even if you're not watching its still stupidly easy to keep up with whats going on to still discuss it. Twitter & YouTube make it far easier to not watch.

That's why I started doing my records, facts, & stats. So, I can keep myself busy during commercials and boring segments in between matches.

To put it simply, I hate the company, but I really want to support the talent they have.

I have watched wrestling since I was 5 and a half years old and will continue to watch it until my dying day for the same reason. I watch it because I want to support the wrestlers that are busting their asses every night for my pleasure. I watch it because of the athletic moves that you can't see in any other sport. I can ignore the BS Storylines and stuff that happens behind the scenes. I can just focus on the in-ring action like I was 5 years old again.

It's kinda strange to me that the live threads are still highly active FWIW, I remember the RAW live threads on here sometimes going 100+ pages, particularly after the transition to 3 hours. Yesterday's RAW thread is 23 pages.

The best analogy I can give is, you can’t support your favorite teams only when they’re winning. I always have hope they’ll turn it around and they do have flashes of quality here and there (with the exception of HIAC, pay per views have been decent), and I figure once they do find the formula it will work out.
