Seriously, at this point, I blame the fans that subject themselves to this as much as the company. What did people really expect from this show? You knew the card and storylines going in. WWE has had no fire-power behind anything they've done forever now.
I am cynical and still try to follow wrestling. People ask "Why do you still do it?", but it's hard to give up something you love. That being said, I don't know what anyone was expecting. How many of you watched this show on the WWE Network? You are supporting the current direction by doing that. When you go to cancel the Network, it will ask you why, and you can say "Direction of the current product/storylines" or something to that effect. Cancel the Network and watch classic wrestling on YouTube/Daily Motion or sign up for New Japan World.
At least those people who walked out sent a message that they do not care about the proposed main event of a show that they paid for. We'll all be back discussing Raw and boosting WWE's ratings and giving them more of an edge as they bargain with USA Network, further solidifying the direction of Vince McMahon's wrestling.
I get that not having modern WWE in your life can be scary, because if you're reading this, then you probably like wrestling and want it to be good again -- like me. But for fuck's sake, stop supporting this product. Cancel your Network subscriptions and stop watching Raw.
