What I was simply saying was this: Does it truly matter that the tournaments are overdone? No. If people didn't complain about tournaments on RAW, they just find something else to complain about. It seems to be a pattern among "smart" wrestling fans. We witnessed one of the best RAWs of the year and people still find something to complain about.

Does it matter that tournaments as a whole have been done? Yes. It shows little effort and people will lose interest. However, it's the first tournament that's been done on RAW in awhile. That was the logic in my last post. I do somewhat agree though. The WWE cannot keep relying on tournaments. The "Gold Rush" tournament was different though. The participants weren't announced until they came out. So, it's not like it was ALL the same as past tournaments.....
