Yeah, but that was WCW. And WCW sucked.
They weren't entertaining anyone or putting smiles on people's faces.

I will not stand for anyone comparing WWE's usage of The Muppets to WCW having Rick Steiner seriously calling out Chucky.

The Muppets on Raw was amazing.

Like it or not, they brought in puppets and they talked to wrestlers like they were real entities.
They were used better, but it was still ridiculous.

It turned out to be pretty stupid, but I kind of marked out for Chucky on Nitro.

They were all just fictional characters appearing in skits, just some of them were puppets. Beloved puppets that many, many people have seen treated as human since they were one year old. And it doesn't matter, anyway: if Chuckie had shown up and done a comedy bit, no one would have really cared. The stupid thing was that we were seemingly supposed to get emotionally involved in the conflict he was having with Rick Steiner and... hope they would fight? It was confusing. |

Well let's just focus on Scooby Doo showing up then huh?
The WCW bashing is littered in hypocrisy. That's my point.

Damien Sandow berating Scooby Doo in the middle of an otherwise pointless mid card match with Sin Cara was more sensical than Rick Steiner challenging Chucky to a fight. It's all in the context. |

WWE shouldn't talk about lifeless dolls considering they had Kelly Kelly on the roster for years.

At least Chucky did not run through a painted-on tunnel.

I'll be the dissent.
Muppets Raw was awful as any other lame modern WWE comedy.

You know what's the best thing about the Scooby Doo segment? It followed a Haitch promo where he talked about the start of the "Reality Era".

I just don't agree. But I'm cool with agreeing to disagree. I just get sick watching Gerald Brisco talk about how WCW was a bunch of brain dead morons when WWE has committed many of those same crimes. |

I just want to weigh in to agree that the Muppets Raw was incredible.
Also, at least WWE's never had a fictional character have to bail out one of their top faces. They've done some stupid shit with crossovers but they haven't hit full Robocop.
