A feeling of cautious optimism, but thus far, I’ve been pretty satisfied at the changes that have been implemented in such a short period of time.
So with that being said, I give it an 8. Not back to where I once was, but over time, it might happen.

Super low.
I have little doubt the product will improve, maybe even a lot
But the changes it would take for me to be willing to give them money ever again are significant and definitely unlikely and I suspect may not happen until Hunter's first daughter turns 18 and joins the PC

I mean, if you're a pro wrestling fan (like me) you gonna love Triple H's WWE. If you're a sports entertainment fan...not that much Everybody who watched his NXT knows he doesnt like the corny stuff and those who can't wrestle to save their lives In 2 weeks we have not seen the 24/7 stuff, Ezekiel/Elias, Omos... I can't wait for a "Triple H doesnt like fun" thread here in the near future lol Haven’t heard anything to this effect, but I got a gut feeling the 24/7 Title’s days are numbered. Some Vince things unfortunately remain: renaming (Iyo Sky) and saying “sports-entertainment” during a recent Smackdown, that will hopefully be phased out soon. Wasn't the 24/7 title NBC/USA's thing? Like, could swear it was something they specifically wanted.

Just hoping the on-screen product gets better.

If 1 = “I’m never watching this stuff, for a combination of ethical (offscreen) issues and quality (onscreen) issues”
and 5 = “I’m willing to consider re-subscribing to the Network”
and 10 = “This is exactly how I felt watching Royal Rumble 2000”
I’m about a 3, which is the highest I’ve been on WWE for a couple of years now

Looking forward to them making some changes

Looks like Triple H isn't slowing down with the addition of Kross now. I will bump up from a 6 to 7.

Kross coming in makes me a little more pessimistic.

I don't want to put a number on it because it seems silly and arbitrary, but I'll say "cautiously optimistic". they arent going to right the ship overnight and a lot of the squandered talent who went to AEW arent coming back at least for a few years (at which point most of them will be past their prime anyway) but I no longer feel like every week is guaranteed to be the same boring holding pattern and overpushing only like 3 or 4 people that it was under Vince.

7 out of 10, cautiously optimistic. I've enjoyed the product during the past two weeks more than I have in over a decade.

I’m not super high on Kross but if there were any doubts that Triple H has full hold of the reigns this eliminates them.
NXT was my favourite ever wrestling show so I’m definitely a HHH guy, and I’m excited, and watching for the first time in years

I have decided to give WWE another genuine shot if Kevin Dunn leaves/is fired and if the person who succeeds him actually has sane camera cuts. Raw was on in the background last night when I was out and I watched a bit to see what was going on. I don't remember the camera work being this actively bad before I stopped watching but it makes the show unwatchable for me with how distracting they are from the action. Can't fairly judge the content of the show until they calm the f*** down.

I'm at like a 7.5 right now, but I'll be at a 9 or 10 if we get a Halloween Havoc episode of Raw this year. No excuses!!!

5. I'm cautiously hopeful, but it could really go in either direction.
I hope that what has been working with fans under Vince isn't dumped entirely simply because Vince is gone. At the same time, I hope that Trips really does inspire better and more imaginative work from the writing room.

With Hunter seemingly added talent back almost for every show since Summerslam. Does this increase your belief in the company?
Summerslam Jul 31st - Kai and Sky Smackdown Aug 5th - Karrion and Scarlett Raw Aug 8th - Dexter Smackdown Aug 12th - Hit Row
Can't wait to see who he brings back for the shows in Canada.
