When exactly did watching raw or smackdown become a chore? I didn't think the were all the way up through 2010 - I stopped watching regularly because I got rid of cable and I didn't like the booking. But when did the shows actively become painful to get through?

When I discovered other wrestling like Dragon Gate and PWG.

Something Awful, so easy even a spaceman can do it!


I turned on RAW to start off the night and Wade Barrett said that tonight should be classified as a “Premium Live Event” for the amazing things of Randy Orton speaking and CM Punk speaking.

After a little bit, they added the match of Orton Vs Dom.

Does not feel like a major show feel with those moments.

Edit: after I realized that Punk was the end, I switched to the Bears game and amazingly enough, they are winning but will probably lose when the Vikings actually score a touchdown.

I heard the Gunther miz segment from last week was good so I checked it out and it was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.

TBH when any of the regular WWE viewers here mention that something was good I don't believe them.

Fed brain.

No wonder they gave him 5 minutes, they don't know what his first storyline is going to be.

That has to be why that promo was pretty much directionless and just "hey, I'm back. Yay" :nallears:

I still remember how excited and affected I was when he returned in 2021. I like to clown on him but I wish he was still good and wasn't a giant loser.
