TPWW Forums - View Single Post - WWE's weekly content is too densely scheduled

All I watch is Raw, SmackDown and PPV's. I don't watch NXT, Main Event or Superstars, but even though I only watch what I watch, I still feel it can be a bit too much at times.

I think the main "problem" is the PPV's.

Since the brand split, we've had a PPV pretty much fortnightly. I think next year would be a good time for the WWE to start designating each month to each brand just like what they did during the first Brand Extension and that way, there would be some good "breathing space" between PPV's and weekly shows, and it would also give angles a good amount of time to develop and build up interest for that brand's next PPV.

For example:

January - Interbrand (Royal Rumble)
February - Raw
March & April - Depending on when WrestleMania is, the other month will be SmackDown's
May - Raw
June - SmackDown
July - Raw
August - Interbrand (SummerSlam)
September - SmackDown
October - Raw
November - Interbrand (Survivor Series)
December - SmackDown

Another "problem" like most people have said, is Raw being three hours. It really does feel like it drags and can be a chore to watch it all most of the time.

A two hour Raw and SmackDown along with maybe NXT and Main Event both on a Friday one after the other, would probably be better. Two hours of WWE on Monday, Tuesday and Friday every week, with three hours of the PPV once a month sounds more maintainable for your average WWE fan, if you ask me.
