I haven't kept up with the weekly shows, yet I watch PPVs

[agent817]

Is this weird? I haven't been putting on Raw or Smackdown, or even NXT that much. I could put it on to catch a glimpse of something, but other times it's just background noise. Yet, I will watch the PPVs. Aside from the two main events of this year's Mania, I don't really know what's going, storyline-wise. I will say that some matches on the cards seem intriguing, though. I know Sami vs. Gunther is going to rule, maybe even steal the show. I could see Iyo vs. Bayley being good, as well as Seth vs. Drew. But other than that, I haven't kept up with the weekly shows. This is more common than I would think, right?

Yes it's surprisingly common.
It was the only way I ever watched tna and I've done the same with wwe at times.
It works particularly well with wwe because their video packages are so good.

This is pretty much how I watch. I only ever see Raw and Smackdown clips through social media.

Ever since about month 3-4ish of Roman's reign I just 100% gave up on Smackdown and about 70% gave up on RAW. I find you can follow most story beats really well with just PPV's without spending a significant percentage of your life watching Roman waste time and not wrestle.

Same here, Raw is too long, I’m usually busy when Smackdown is on. AEW too, I catch one Dynamite in five and never the other shows but always make an effort for PPV/PLE. I catch up on storylines here and on YouTube.

That's how I watch AEW, I'm often confused but what's new 😂

No. Raw is 3 hours every week. As if I’m watching that every week. Another 2 hours for Smackdown. With constant adverts. I don’t blame anyone for watching the PPV’s and not weekly tv.

[Citizen Snips Has Left]

I pretty much watch the Big 4, sometimes MITB if I remember.

Yeah...that's basically me with NXT at least.
I watch the 2-hour version of RAW and Smackdown on Hulu tho most of the time
