Raw: Good storylines, jerk at the top, okay wrestling.
Smackdown: Okay storylines, Jerk at the top, okay wrestling with a few shine-through moments.
TNA: What storylines, Jerk at the top, and great wrestling interspersed with crap that makes the WWE look great. Apologist fanboys who say that Monty's shit on the mic, but what he lacks in mic work and ring skill he makes up for with energy.
If I only watched wrestling for pure athleticism, I might agree with your assessment. But this isn't a sport. It's entertainment. Macho, athletic driven entertainment, but it needs drama to drive it, or it's just what all the naysayers criticise it for being: A fake sport.
TNA feels that way to me, because of all the garbage that goes in as well. I like the X-Division, though it is a spotfest. I like a lot of the wrestlers. But when I see my hour a week eaten up by Dusty Rhodes and Jeff Jarrett, I start to wonder how much is going to be left over for the real talent the TNA locker room has to offer.
