Wrestling fatigue.
I don't know if it's the boring WM32 or Monday show overdose (since Monday has like 4 or 5 shows that I love that are actually entertaining) or it's because I don't watch it live anymore because I don't have the channel, but around 2 or 3 in the morning WWE RAW can be found online. But I find it very difficult to sit through it or pay attention and not skip parts when I have the ability to do so... I watched the intro and skipped 90% of the rest of RAW.

Nothing matters in the WWE and I'm close to considering taking another break from watching or keeping up.


And yeah, I have no emotional investment in these new guys so guys like Sami Z ARE good, but when I see them on RAW, it's just a random new dude to me.

Eh.

It happens to all of us from time to time. I groaned when I saw Dr Phil was the guest host this week. I miss Cena and wish he would come back.

Perhaps the mainstream product just isn't cutting for you anymore! I suggest trying some alternate wrestling products right now, for example CHW. CHW is a breath of fresh air if you have been a life long WWE watcher. Unlike WWE which requires you to dedicate 5 hours a week at minimum to keep up with the action, CHW usually only has ONE show a week that's under an hour in length!


So why not check it out?


As a matter of fact this week is a grest time to check CHW out. Because next Saturday, CHW features a world title match of EPIC proportions that you absolutely cant miss.





That's right, Ric "THE MIC" Roberts will defend his title against the talented no nonsense man from France, David Storm!


So try some CHW. I know a bunch of people who were burned out on WWE and now watch CHW!

Dude, CHW is the bomb. Robb Banks just won the Inter-State title last week. I can't even begin to tell you how crazy it was.

I haven't watched Raw since the go home show leading into Survivor Series. I gave the fuck up at that point. I've watched all the ppv/network specials and nxt is well worth the $10/month in its own, but I'm 99% checked out in weekly WWE.

At best I'll YouTube stuff that gets some buzz here.

Pretty much feel the same way at this point. I haven't watched anything WWE since Wrestlemania. I just can't work up the will to care anymore. Unlike you I do have emotional attachment to guys like Sammi Zayn due to watching NXT, but after 'Mania I think it finally sunk in that WWE just isn't meant for me anymore. The characters I like are never going to be pushed and the company as a whole isn't interested in good storytelling anymore.

I'm honestly not mad or anything. I'm not doing the whole "Reigns won so I'm quitting" cliche crap, I just literally don't have fun watching the product anymore, and that goes for all wrestling really. Even NXT has become a chore to sit through, and I think that's because I know the inevitable is bound to happen to all of them when they eventually leave. I can't get invested in NXT when I know it's just a temporary place that no one is going to stick around for long. It's gotten to the point where even my weekly ritual of watching with my friend has ended. Told her last Monday we could watch something else instead and she got kinda pissed. Told me off for getting her into wrestling in the first place and then "taking it away." We did eventually watch a few episodes of Gotham on Hulu though, and now she's getting into that so there's a silver lining somewhere in here I guess lol.

There are a few things that strike my fancy. Like that Shinsuke fellow or a possible world title reign for AJ Styles or even a "brand split" with Shane O' Macaroni at the helms of one of the shows.

This is my first week not watching or reading spoilers for Raw or Smackdown. I've only popped in here coz I saw the Balls Mahoney thread on the main forum page and thought I'd take a quick gander.

Just totally burned out. Way too much content, of which about 90% of it is boring and shit. I skip through things in about ten minutes anyway, but even the good stuff just isn't doing it for me right now.

NXT Takeover was brill. Wrestlemania was fucking shite. As was Raw after Wrestlemania. I'm glad Cesaro's back and am pumped for AJ being in the main event, but it's not enough to really get me watching. Just gonna not follow it for a month or two, see what happens.

I usually give the WWE a solid couple of months of watching every 4 or 5 years just to see if I can capture some magic, then I just blissfully go back to reading results and rolling my eyes trying to find something worth watching.

WM32 really soured me- 5 hours and what happened? Roman won- didn't turn heel, Shane jumped off the cell, Snoop Dogg was there and Stone Cold, Rock and Foley came out for 5 minutes.

Dean and Brock had a very lackluster match... what was the point of Mick and the barbed wire when he didn't even use it? Hell, the build up of Dean mocking Brock and not giving 2 craps was more fun.

Gotham, Better Call Saul, Bates Motel, Supergirl and Lucifer are my Monday shows, so if I get to RAW by 3 or 4, I can't deal with all the BS for 2 in half hours.

Last week, I let it load and finished RAW in like 45 minutes- this week I literally watched like 20/25 min of it and just skipped to the last 2 minutes.

I love Cesaro and Becky Lynch. I keep tabs on what they are doing. And Evil Emma too. But yeah, generally I'm pretty fatigued and haven't actually watched anything from this week beyond NXT and Cesaro vs. Owens.

Can't say I have wrestling fatigue. I watch a lot of wrestling, WWE, NXT, TNA, ROH, NJPW, PPW and YouTube videos of smaller promotions. Don't watch any of it live though. Think the last Raw I watched live was the one where Bo Dallas beat Flo Rida in a rap battle. Don't watch Smackdown. Skip around NXT and only watch the guys I know, skip most the tag team matches (checked out this American Alpha every ones high on). I like the Jordan guy not sure about the other. TNA has a ok product at the moment and have booked EC3 perfect since his debut. ROH is just awesome, enjoy it every week, best tag division in wrestling. NJPW has done a great job the last couple of years and hopefully they can keep it going after the talent raid. Wish I got Lucha Underground.

While last evening's edition of Monday Night RAW was decent, I couldn't bare to sit for three hours and decided to read the spoilers and go to bed early so that I could be productive in the morning. I listened to the recap (via podcast) while grocery shopping in the morning.
