Actually, I've skipped on the WWE for a while, and have only watched it periodically (I've had several WWE episodes on my DVR waiting to be watched, but no one is watching them right now). And I've been alot more of a WWE mark than alot of people here. Even defending them here when no one else would.

But here's the main issue. The fans have been talking and talking, and the forums have been going on and on and on about how bad the product sucks and how Vince needs to change it, but yet, he listens to NO ONE AT FUCKING ALL! He does what he wants and to hell with what the fans, the networks, or the ratings want him to do (in case you didn't notice, Vince, WWE Raw is no longer #1 on the Neilson top cable ratings list, when it has been for EONS).

Let's go back to 06 for example. The Rey win at the Rumble. Now I know that people will think that Rey winning was the worst thing that could've happened to the WWE. But meh. It was one of the best things. EVERYONE marked out then. But then look what happened afterwards. We have a feud with Orton which is based around Orton taking a long, diarrea shit on the grave of Eddie up into NWO, and then having Orton win cheaply, only to have Rey just be GIVEN the title shot back. Now while the Mania win was good, by then, we could already see the wheels falling off this damn wagon. And then, week after week, he gets booked into the SAME TYPE OF MATCH!! Him getting thrown all across the ring again and again only to have him win in the end. When he loses, he loses a non-title match to the EXACT SAME PERSON HE IS GONNA HAVE A TITLE MATCH WITH AT THE NEXT PPV!! Now c'mon, doing that would even make HBK look weak, let alone Rey. But alas, we bought into it, and shame on us. Instead of saying how fucking poorly the WWE handled that title run, we instead shit on Rey, saying that he is and would always be a shit champion (we kind of forgot his runs as the Cruiser champ, when he was actually allowed to put up more of a fucking fight and not be looking like some fucking pussy in the ring). When Booker won the title, it was a breath of fresh air for many, but for all the wrong reasons. That had to be the worst handled title run since Triple H's 11-month "since I'm boning the boss's daughter, I'm gonna make everyone assume the position and suck my big long cock" title run (in which Vince just LET that shit happen). We should've all been saying "how dare you, WWE, for killing the crediability of a more-than-able contender" instead of "fuck you, Rey, for killing the cred of the World Title."

Even though that sounds like I'm shitting on the people here than on the WWE, consider this: Vince had the bait right there, and we were dumb enough to bite on it. He gave us EVERY GODDAMN REASON to place the blame for a poorly handled title run on the person HOLDING the title than the person that was pulling the strings OF that person holding the title. We bought it, hook, line, and sinker.

Then comes RAW's suckitude. Alas, I do still enjoy that Papa Roach theme (I'm one of the few that does, apparently). But that is probably the ONLY thing about RAW I'm liking anymore. Rosie vs. Donald was too fucked up for words, the DX thing went on for TOO long without the same juice that gave it the life it did back in '98, the Spirit Squad's tag title reign goes on and on and on and on without any change to how any challenger goes after them, anyone that is enjoyable on RAW is pushed to Heat and shit while the old guys do whatever the fuck they feel like doing. And the Cena shit, which it seems true that Cena is one to just take the unintended heat he is getting (and good for him, he's actually just doing his damn JOB), the WWE REALLY needs to build up someone NEW and a real, viable title holder. I'm sure that if Cena loses the title and the keep it off of him for at least a year or so, then at least half of their lost audience WILL RETURN!! My question is: If RAW is supposed to be Vince's baby, then why in the hell is it allowed to suck so fucking badly?

Now, at least it seems like they ARE trying on SmackDown to do SOMETHING good with it, and by the rising ratings on the CW, it seems they are doing SOMETHING right with it. However, this has some faults. For one, Michael Hayes needs to be put in his place, and FAST!! They already lost Lashley because of him, which would've been a HUGE asset in the main event scene, and they could be standing to have others on that rosted pissed off at him for other things and going to other brands or worse, to TNA! Hayes needs to learn that the "my way or the highway" shit is something that is KILLING this product, and him shitting on anyone he doesn't like without even considering if anyone else likes who he might not no matter what is going to absolutly KILL SD if it hasn't started already. At least Johnny Ace seems to be improving from HIS ridiculous tirade he went in in 06. Still has a ton to go, however. Oh, and make Mr. Kennedy a fucking FACE!! He's getting the pops, he a favorite amongst the fans, they recite his catchphrases along with him. If they don't mishandle a face run with him like they have with Cena, then he could be the next Rock.

There's a reason why I left ECW last, and that is because they have all but burned ECW down like the Hindenberg. For one, it's on SciFi, in which many STILL don't get without digital cable, so who the fuck is going to SEE it? Maybe it's a blessing that those people don't see it, because it's a train wreck. NONE of the matches are worth watching, NO ONE that should be pushed ARE being pushed, Lashley was given the belt WAY too early (as if the ECW belt has any cred left, anyway), the "Extreme Rules" matches are like a spit in the face to ANYONE who knew the ECW rules back in the day, and I could go on for days about how badly the WWE has fucking the ECW up. Yet the WWE doesn't see this, or doesn't care, and refuses to put ECW out of its misery (which is the misery that the WWE themselves caused). Once you see that when the December To Dismember PPV bombed worse than Hiroshima (and before you neg me for that, consider how BAD that PPV was, and how much of a mistake I think the a-bombs were. The a-bombs became an embarrasment to Americans just as how much of an embarrasment DTD was to wrestling in general), who the fuck does Vince blame for that piece of shit? Not himself, oh no, Vince cannot do anything wrong, he cannot admit that something that HE controls is a failure. No, he INSTEAD goes and fires the ONE guy that actually HAS a brain there, PAUL HEYMAN!! The one guy that, when he is booking and in the creative, the ratings go up almost IMMEDIATLY, and people become happy, because he always does things that give us some fresh air. And Vince fires HIM, and look what happens. We get that Lashley vs. Test match. Jesus Christ, who in the FUCK thought that TEST would be viable for ANY title right now, and who booked that fucking match? It's official that ECW as a whole has lost all cred (or whatever it had left), let alone that title they have. Lashley should've gone to RAW!

But that last fact that Vince fired someone that COULD'VE done something good for his product should speak volumes. He does things ass backwards. If people are happy with the way the product is, you DON'T FUCKING DO A BAIT AND SWITCH!! That is what the WWE has done for YEARS now. Do one thing that will get fans to watch his shows and then revert RIGHT BACK TO WHAT HE HAS BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST 5 FUCKING YEARS!! His style hasn't worked 5 years ago, it isn't now, and it never will as long as he doesn't KEEP doing what DOES keep people watching his shows. He needs to stop being so fucking stubborn and thinking that he is the be all, end all. He needs to GET THE FUCK OFF OF RAW AND STAY THE FUCK OFF OF RAW!! Stop luring the people that will watch what he tries to do when he does something different, and then pull that bait and switch the second they are hooked so they will have to like what HE and ONLY HE likes. The thing HE likes is what is driving people away, and again, either he fails to see what he is doing, or he DOES know what he is doing, and doesn't give one ounce of FUCKING SHIT!! Do what gets you praise and then don't try to fix what isn't broken. He needs to either start doing that or start considering selling the WWE to someone that WILL care, or at least pass it down to someone that gives a shit.

But until then, Alienoid has said EVERYTHING EVERY wrestling fan has felt for 5 years now.
