I only watch Raw, so that gets my vote.

I've been a Raw guy forever...but that show makes NO sense and I'm sick to death of seeing Vince McMahon. Yes, Smackdown has Michael Cole, but at least their storylines don't suck.

I think RAW is the most successful, but the work rate is poorly used. I think Smackdown is the funnest to watch, and JBL makes it better. I think ECW is bland, full of repeats, and a few good matches here and there.
SD gets my vote.

RAW criminally underuses the largest talent pool in the 'E.

Lately, it's between Smackdown and ECW for me. Both of them have been solid, consistently entertaining shows that have largely focussed on wrestling rather than on endless promos and massaging VKM's ego. I get that's a part of the business, but it's not the part I enjoy most.

IMO, ECW has been stepping up big time lately. Raw is always alright, and I realize SD is doin good, but lately, I have actually been looking forward to some ECW on Tuesday nights. Minus Lashley ECW champion, I would choose ECW at this point in time

Thanks to Sky tv's inept greed, I can no longer see any of the WWE's classy programming.

I don't watch any WWE show at the moment, so I guess I don't find any of them to be good. However, I did see the latest SmackDown and found it to be quite good.

RAW'S THE BEST!!!
Why is that, you ask yourself??
Because the show makes sense, is funny as well as captivatingly entertaining..... (I would love to go ahead and give appreciation to and sincerely thank and give credit to John Cena for that...and other wrestlers and whoever else helps out with that!!) John Cena is completely awesome and the reason is because the show is consistently improving and being entertaining as well as having a dash of humor, a generous helping of fun and allowing my favorite wrestler in the world ever of all time....The Prototype (that is just his nickname!) John Cena to be able to cut promos that are funny and show a spirit of fun, excitement and enjoyability to the show! As well as having storylines that make sense while being quite good and doesn 't show Vince McMahon much anymore. They are giving people what they really want. More of...... The Prototype John Cena please!!!
I am finally beginning to look forward to RAW again and am enjoying doing so! Because I have greatly missed the entertaining promos, while John Cena undoubtedly makes RAW funniest and the most awesome show just to watch for the way that he gets caught up in the fun of what he is doing....while knowing when to come across seriously, as well as the work rate being balanced out however it's supposed to be by making it more of a "fun-rate" than a "work-rate" though. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Thanks to Sky tv's inept greed, I can no longer see any of the WWE's classy programming. How do you mean? I still get it free. For me, ECW is my favourite at the moment. It's good to see some new characters and a decent storyline that's gaining momentum with NB/Originals. I am getting wary of Vince showing up on ECW a lot more, but once the Lashley feud is over, it should all be good. Smackdown's second, and Raw's boring.

I voted for SmackDown. They have come a long way in just a few months. I remember last summer at the Raw/SD Supershow in Philly, SmackDown was such a poor show. Now I look forward to watching it every week, even when I know what happened.
You guys know, this is one of the questions included in my poll. *looks to my sig*

Now I look forward to watching it every week, even when I know what happened. You guys know, this is one of the questions included in my poll. *looks to my sig* I agree, though SMACKDOWN! still wants to give us more Batista/Undertaker tag team pairings than are ever needed(well, more a dig at WWE in general). But SD! gets my vote over RAW because... (1) There is a crowd-popular champion, hero or heel, that doesn't get booed and is ignored by the promotion. (2) There are serious tag teams in SD!...and oh my god, a tag team FEUD. RAW's "Tag Team Division" is what, Hardyz, WGTT, and Cade/Murdoch. That's not a division, thats a glorified HEAT taping. (3) The second-tier U.S. Heavyweight belt is up for grabs in a progressively-quality feud between Benoit and MVP. Their 20-minute match on friday was as good, if not arguably better, than their WM match. I see MVP winning the belt by June at this point. While on RAW.....wiat, what did happen to the IC belt? Did Umaga eat it? (4) King Booker floating around as a face and heel....but now I guess when he returns, hes a face again. (5) JBL as a heel-fan announcer. At times he tries to schill insanely like Lawler, but without The King's hyperactivity. But JBL does actually sound like an analyst thats wrestled for years on the midcard, lowcard, and topcard(hey, I respect Tazz, but have you actually heard anything kayfabe-sports insightful?) Now if someone at WWE can replace Mitchell, err I mean Michael Cole...

IMO, SD is still tops, followed by ECW, and Raw is a distant third.

I'll go with the one that hasn't had two meaningless main events the past couple of weeks involving guys nobody gives a damn about.
Plus it makes the WWE Champ look like crap since he still gets two minutes of TV time and doesn't even main event his own show.
