Comparing just RAW and SD, only real advantage SD has had over RAW is it being an hour shorter. Quality-wise, its been just as bad and at times even worse than RAW has been in general. At least RAW was more willing to experiment with new people even if it ended up being very hit-or-miss which is more than what can be said of SD's efforts under Prichard.
Gotcha! You don’t fit my arbitrary paradigm therefore I win! Bullshit. Dynamite is borderline unwatchable. SmackDown is largely turgid, but I can get through a Daniel Bryan vs. Drew Gulak match. Nothing on AEW is that good. Nothing.

The Raw guys are all bums, sadly. I like what I’ve seen of Angel Garza. Everyone else is pretty shit, unless I’m missing someone obvious.

With FOX, they basically scammed the network into giving them a huge sum of money for a show they never had any real intentions of improving. Even worse is they managed to double scam FOX in terms of not giving them the big stars they wanted and getting even more programming that also had no real effort put into it.
Yes, Vince McMahon scammed FOX. Because in five years he’s going to want FOX feeling cheated by him when he asks for more money. What sort of take is this, BigCrippyZ?

FOX knows what they paid for. Vince McMahon’s WWE on their network. I’m willing to bet they don’t even know who most of the wrestlers are. But yes, they are very mad they didn’t get Andrade. Grr, that Vincent Kennedy McMahon swindled us again!

SmackDown succeeds at what it wants to be. That it doesn’t appeal to people who lose their shit at Trent showing up in his mom’s car or Orange Cassidy comedically punching Chris Jericho through a table is probably not a bad thing.

AEW scammed everyone by saying they were going to change the world and offer a sports-based presentation. That one is actually true.

Absolutely! WWE doesn’t mean anything anymore. AEW creates new stars like Chuck Taylor and The Dark Order. So good to see talent being used to their fullest potential.
