Don't watch then.
I've been catching up on LU the last 2 weeks on Monday & I couldn't be happier with their product

My conspiracy theory brain says that since Cena is gone, Vince is sabotaging his own show so that when Cena returns and the ratings spike he can be like "see! see, he is THE reason people watch" almost like when Cena had to go out with the injury he just decided it wasn't worth it and booked on auto-pilot. All the while at the expense of everyone else.
That's a theory.
Reality is, out of touch. Horrible at understanding common sense. Too many rewrites. Couple good ideas doesn't make a genius. Please retire.

The show is just so boring. That's exactly it. I don't even think it's a fun bad, or so bad it's good. If it was, I could see watching it to rag on it. But it's not even that. It's just really boring and uneventful. It's like the Groundhog Day of boring, repetitive bullshit. And that's why I've bailed on it for the time being; three hours of dull? No thanks. Can do plenty of other things with that time.

Seems I picked a good RAW to start my break from WWE. I was thinking the opposite, seems some things actually happened. However one of those things is likely to result in more ADR and I don't think I can take that.

It was booked like a PG version of the Attitude Era. Feuds crossing over into other feuds. I admit to liking things being a little bit more chaotic, BUT the key component is not losing focus of what you're doing because continuity will suffer greatly. And that is what I fear the most about this.
And I think there are only two actual faces in the Divas roster.

Funny thing is, that theory lines up nicely with the idea that Cena strategically decided to take time off once football season began so that he could come back and pop the ratings.

I was entertained most of the show actually. And the commentary was markedly better (especially Paige and The New Day's visits).
Different strokes, for different folks I guess. I'm starting to enjoy Sheamus' reign more than any other recent reign in 2015, at least he's not constantly up the Authority's butt and has his own backup, plus all his allies are champions and their feuds are all main event calibur now that they are allies with the WWE WHC (King of the Ring, US Champ, Tag Champs, and Rusev the "Lana Champ" who beat out Ziggler for dat booty prize).

wait... Tommy Dreamer returned? That sounds worth watching. The rest sounds terrible. You know Vince probably can't sit still right now yelling WHERE'S CENA AND ORTON?!

Did ratings come out yet? Yeah, where exactly is the report? Its usually up by now. I liked most of this episode, but I really want to see how the ratings are because there's going to be some interesting reponses either here or backstage at WWE.

Was watching live and joked on another forum about the inevitable 8-man tag main event we'd get. Had a glimmer of hope when the world title match was announced so soldiered on. Title match at end of 2nd hour , i'm like " Righto something big's happening here , this could be what they ( and i ) need to kill this slump !!..."
Then we got what we got.....and as soon as the 8 man was announced i changed channel , never turned WWE off before and i've followed since WM1.

It seems like he wouldn't have the power to tell that show he's filming when he can film, more like they'd tell him we're filming at this time take time off from WWE if you want the gig. I could be wrong though.
