I don’t regularly
I watch the Takeovers
As for main roster, Royal Rumble & Wrestlemania (maybe Summerslam if it gets good reviews after)
Better thing to do with my time than watch a weekly product that I could tolerate st best

WWE is more than Monday Night Raw. We all predicted, even half-jokingly, that Raw would suck after the last shakeup. We were all right.
I've maybe watched only eight episodes of Raw since last April. I watch Smackdown, NXT, I skip matches I don't care about during PPVs even when it's live.
It's not perfect even then. But there are plenty of things to like.

I watch PPV's only for two reasons:
1. I am already subbed to WWE Network for the old shows, so why not? If it weren't for WWE Network, I wouldn't watch ...ever.
2. I may not enjoy it from a creative standpoint, but I still enjoy the matches. I don't hold WWE's shortcomings against the talent, and just watching one show per month allows me to keep up with the talent and enjoy their work without getting bogged down in the weekly grind.

Pretty much because I enjoy posting here. Lol Without FAN I certainly wouldn’t watch RAW. SDL is super solid now though and I actually enjoy watching it.
Then there are Takeovers, which remind me why I watch and love wrestling nearly every single time.

I've been watching regularly since kindergarten with only a few year hiatus in the middle of elementary school. I'm not stopping now.

I don't. Last two things that I watched were wrestlemania and Greatest Royal Rumble. I quit watching all of it. including 205 and NXT. I have free access to the network. I won't even watch it for free.

I mostly don't; outside of being a kid circa 1990-1994 I've rarely watched WWE with much consistency outside of some brief stretches here and there (e.g. a year or so during the Attitude Era, then most of 2004). By the time I got to around college age I realized that it's just not a product designed for my tastes, so I gravitated toward alternatives, which I still enjoy today; I'll be at about 8 shows on WM weekend in the NYC/NJ area, and none of them are WWE branded.
That said, I'll still catch some clips here and there and might check out a major show like the Rumble or Mania if someone I know is watching it and/or having people over for it. Like the product or not WWE is still the biggest company out there, so discussing the wrestling industry without having any clue what's happening in WWE isn't entirely feasible. Since I enjoy discussing and critiquing wrestling I at least give it a look now and then to make sure I'm aware of what I'm talking about. I admit it bums me out to not regularly watch long-time favorites of mine like Bryan or Samoa Joe, but yeah, I just can't get invested in WWE's weekly product.

In truth because the live threads are always a f***ing riot to be apart of , if not for that WWE would not even be in the top 100 things I would be doing in the course of a week.

2018? I used it as background noise mainly. 2019 has admittedly brought a bit of change to the product. I’m always talking about how Raw is good, and to me, it just is. There’s always a dud segment or two, but nothing that ruins the entire show for me. Smackdown always delivers, as does NXT. I’ve honestly found the first half of 2019 to be damn good. The build to Mania has been great, they seem to be putting people that the fans want on top whilst also giving the under and midcard time to shine.
I’ve noticed SD mainly takes the NXT approach where they focus on certain people and stories one week and other folks the next. I find that to be damn good, as is the “wwe ecosystem” where they have wrestlers interacting with one another as well as segue way into other segments during the break.
All in all? I’m enjoying WWE right now.

Smackdown is generally good more often than not. But I stopped watching Raw. And even then, I'd rather watch The Flash over SDL if it's new.

It’s a mix of habit, being a fan of individual talents, and liking to post in the live threads.

When you become for a lack of better term “smark,” I feel like you will always be hooked for life even if it’s out of curiosity to see who’s on the forefront. Plus I watch for entertainment. I’d rather follow storylines than see “Indy/Japan darling guy 1” vs “Indy/Japan” darling guy 2” put on a match that just revolves around trying to be the best in a would be real athletic competition. And there’s also Elias. I love that guy.
