Raw vs SmackDown Live!
Which do you think is better at this particular juncture? Smackdown with Bryan Danielson and Shane o Mac'? or under Mick Foley and the proper tutelage of Stephanie Mcmahon

I think it's too early to decide which show is my actual favorite yet. I want to wait until Raw gets the cruiserweights and until Smackdown gets...uhhh...Curt Hawkins, I guess.

I will say that I enjoy many aspects of both, though.

Smackdown Live is the show I'm leaning towards. Raw just seems to have crazy booking while Smackdown has been booked pretty well. I will say I'm not a fan of the Shane/Bryan duo and like Steph/Foley better. I'll still watch both shows but Smack down Live has better the better of the two so far to me.

So far SmackDown Live - though RAW last night was really good and RAW the first episode after the split was really good (and SDLive's first episode was not so good).

RAW has had the overall better singular show, but Smackdown Live is consistently better.

RAW hit a home run, but Smackdown is fucking rallying.

Raw has Rollins. Besides for that it's all about Smackdown besides for burying Wyatt every week.

I root for Smackdown simply because it's the "underdog" and would love nothing more than for it to get better ratings than Raw.

Despite both brands being "equal", I feel slightly perturbed that a few months ago, but brands were desperate to have the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on it's show. Smackdown won it. So lol never mind, Raw created a new title with brand new linage and I feel already it's the #1 title whilst Smackdown's is the secondary one.

It's like, the more they try to distinguish both shows as equals, the more they "shove it in our faces" that Raw is still the A show and Smackdown the B show.

I feel that SmackDown is the better show at the moment.

Up until SummerSlam, Raw was "winning" every week in my opinion, but since SummerSlam, it's been all SmackDown, again, in my opinion.

This weeks Raw was pretty bad. And the fact that Kevin Owens is Universal Champion and Triple H is back, just makes me not really look forward to watching Raw next week. I know it's only been two days since Raw, but I just get this feeling that Raw will now just be back to being "The Triple H & Stephanie Show".

Anyway, I find myself enjoying SmackDown more anyway. SmackDown seems to have the best roster overall and championships. They also have the returns of guys I actually like and want to see. Rhyno, Hawkins, The Headbangers, which by the way, I only wished that they would return at the beginning on the month.

Smackdown has taken things easy since the brand split and really haven't done anything big but it's been better than the Raw overall in my opinion. K.I.S.S Keep It Simple Smackdown.

Smackdown mostly because it flows better overall. Being an hour less than RAW really helps since it doesn't get that dragging feel most RAWs have.

RAW has the stronger roster and star power feel but they don't take advantage of it as constantly as Smackdown does for its roster.

RAW had the better first week, but since then, I think SmackDown has been generally better. I actually check out a segment here or there. I think it's my Becky Lynch crush. But the show is more succinct. Now that it has clear directions in which it is heading, it very simply goes between A and B to get there.

I do have a feeling that it will trade places with RAW though. It depends on how they use some of the talent they have on RAW. I'm far more excited for Backlash than Clash of Champions.
