If you choose WWE, please specify which brand. But yeah, who do you think is putting on the best shows lately?

ECW I suppose, though no one is really putting out anything of high quality at the moment.

Personally, I'd say TNA. Kurt Angle has been on fire, Christian is really starting to get out of his former self and I think is growing to be a true legit Main Event player, Steiners/3D has me interested, Black Machismo is dumb as shit...but it's still funny, Nash is making Shelley/Sabin seem like a legit team...they're really making a go for promotion of the year. So my vote would have to go to TNA as the best promotion currently.

That's tough. I'm really tempted to say ECW but that just feels wrong for some reason. I find myself more into ECW for the most part while watching the show. When I watch Raw, it almost feels like I'm just watching because I feel obligated.

At this very moment, I'm gonna go with ECW but that could change week by week.

On paper, with Angle and Christian being booked so well, TNA seems like a good choice but Impact is just impossible to watch. They have somehow managed to book their stars beautifully in the big picture yet put out a terrible product on a weekly basis. Can't even explain it.

Oh, and atmosphere is a big deal for me and TNA has absolutely none. Raw wins for me based on that alone.

I know what you're saying and I agree.

TNA. Not exactly by a mile, but a large enough margin to exclude two of the three brands of WWE easily.

Who honestly would rather watch Khali and Batista when they can watch Angle, Cage, Daniels, Styles etc.

Raw and SmackDown both sucked last time I checked. ECW is OK. TNA is just weird.........WSX is dead

ECW is my favorite right now, but I LOVED Raw last Monday. If Raw keeps it up, I'll say Raw. I watch SmackDOWN! every week and my brain hates me for it, and I rarely watch TNA. Thursdays, right?

ECW probably, though it's been Raw and TNA as well over the past months. Right now ECW to answer the question, but it has the potential to change weekly.
Raw has the edge in the roster department.

Smackdown just has no chance, its been 4th out of 4 for some time. Even Edge didnt get me to tune in regularly. It hurt Raw more than it helped Smackdown IMO. No matter how good a champ is it can't save the show completely.

ECW. I know TNA has a lot more talent to think about, but it does kinda show them how to book an hour of TV.

I think TNA will win over if they get more TV time, however.

I only really watch Impact on a weekly basis (cos I download and it takes like 27 mins to do an Impact compared to 4 hrs for a Raw/SD!)

I think if TNA got an extra hour they could really start cooking! At the minute they're still having to get too much stuff in the 40 or so minutes of actual action they have.

Raw, Smackdown, ECW, maybe some promotion in New Jersey, and then TNA.

BTW LOL at one person liking TNA like two days ago and then everybodys like "oh yeah its been good". Whatever it sucks.

Raw.
No, I'm not a fan of Super Cena, and not too big on Lashley, but guys like Carlito, Jeff Hardy, Super Crazy, and The World's Greatest Tag Team make it worth wild. I want to know where the Kiing Bookah/Jerry thing is going, and I'm just waiting for Orton/Triple H.

The consistantly (if not always) better show on TV at the moment is Raw... but I wouldn't say anyone is "pumping out" a good product... more like there's some good stuff trickling through amongst the boredom.

And there isn't a particularly BAD show going out right now, from any company (that I have access to anyway)... they're just pretty uninteresting. Not bad, just bland.

ROH :shifty:

Honestly, I agree. They might not have a TV deal in the United States, but they do have PPVs, which kind of count as shows. I guarantee that a ROH PPV would be much better in value, wrestling and sheer entertainment than anything pumped out by TNA or the WWE.

But if you're after either Impact!, RAW, SmackDown! or ECW, I'll have to side with TNA, with ECW being the best of the WWE brands.

TNA. Total Non-Stop Action. That's what we want Vincy. Even though ECW is not that big and hasn't produced big time superstars they had some really good matches in the past. i.e RVD vs Bob Holly (Extreme Rules), RVD vs Burke, The WM rematch under Extreme Rules was pure gold. As far as Raw is concerned it is preety obvious John "Super" Cena is gonna win them all. Being an Indian I appreciate Khali winning the World Championship but frankly I am not a great fan of his wrestling skills or Hindi.

Meh, I'm actually bored of every product at this point and don't look foward to any wrestling programs in the week. I stopped watching Smackdown and ECW long ago, I never managed to remember Impact, and I've finally gave up on Raw as of a few weeks back.

If I could get any roH tapes or japanese ones, I'm interested in getting into them.

In all honesty, ROH is really the only American based company I consistantly enjoy. The only other thing I watch is Raw, and 9 times out of 10, I don't make it all the way through a show.

:y:

I can watch the mid-card matches, the tag division matches and the women's matches. The main eventers bore the shit out of me, though, and considering that is all the WWE care about...

TNA. While it's got it's fair share of shit, there are several wrestlers on the roster I care about. Christian, Angle, Daniels, AJ, Shelly, Sabin, even Joe to a degree.

My problem with WWE is that while they have some decent talent, it's all on the undercard. The main event on all shows is garbage except for ECW, but it's hard for me to consider Punk, Burke, and Nitro a main event scene.

Yes, we in the business call that the "WCW Effect".
