There's no use having a talented roster, which I think WWE currently do, if you don't put on matches befitting of that talent, and nobody, with a straight face, can say that WWE matches are befitting of the talent they have.

Either that, or I'm giving the roster too much credit.

I don't think we're too far away from the day, that Vince stops the wrestling, altogether.

Have you been watching their PPVs?

If the wrestling was gonna disappear it would have in 1999, that was the absolute worst year for in ring action.

Most PPVs are not value for money.

Even the good PPVs are bare minimum that should be expected, given that they're PPVs.

currently i prefer watching smackdown and NXT compared to raw, you see much more entertaining wrestling matches, raw matches usually last about two minutes.

Say what you want about the current product and roster but im actually realy looking forward to 1000th raw, they're building it up to be huge and I reckon the title match will have a swerve somehow.

Yeah im quite looking forward to it, but I know it will probably be entertaining for the nostalgia and nothing else, then it will be right back to the same ole shit they pump out week after week. Most of the wrestling community are waiting for attitude era 2.0 (including myself) but its not going to arrive anytime soon, at the moment they can obtain a satisfactory rating (keeps tv execs happy) without having to do too much so they wont rock the boat. The attitude era as everyone knows was a result of competition and a very real threat of the wwf going down the shitter to a rival company, I cant see them being faced with that threat (from an opposition company) again.

What an idiotic response. Recently on raw you mostly get long soap opera and social media sections and then a few jobber matches with a decent main event. Just saying I'm enjoying the other shows more with more wrestling, i like some promos and feuds but I feel the talent they have is getting well underused on raw atm, but no I'm just saying it to look "cool" cos I like wrestling, jesus wept.

How about we all stop complaining and just try and enjoy the product? The 1000th Raw is coming up on monday night and I for one am looking forward to it.

Like everything, there are pros and cons with the WWE these days but it's still nowhere near as bad as it was between 2006- 2010.

and it's funny to me how all the smarks are suddenly jumping on TNA's cock just because for the first time in years they managed to go a couple of months without any serious fuck ups. They have a lot of great workers worth watching, but stiil the production and storylines are seemingly thrown together and amateur to say the least.

I'm enjoying watching both these days so coming in here to see everyone whinging about it makes no sense to me. To quote the late Rodney King, can't we all just get along?!

Deleted it as I no longer have the Serena avatar photo, so looks a bit odd just there on it's own. Had forgotten about it.

So what are we predicting to happen in the title match? I think CM punk retains, most likely a win due to interference from The Rock or someone. It could set up a triple threat for Summerslam. I think its more likely it will be Punk/Cena for the title at SS for a 2nd year in a row though.
