I never watched wrestling when there was only one show, but I do thinkt hat right now, the timeslot's the WWE has at its disposal are not being used to their maximum efficiency.
Drop the Rebound crap, if we want to see what happened on RAW, we'll watch it, watch one of the three recap shows it has, or go onto WWE.com for details.
Heat and Velocity could be put to better use as well. It annoys me that about half the show is dedicated to showing recaps for RAW/SmackDown!. Bottom Line, Afterburn and The Experience are the WWE's recap shows. kep them this way. Heat & Velocity could be used to further major angles, and be used for some good wrestling time. Paul London vs. Akio in an Iron Man Match is something I would watch Velocity for, not crappy segment re-runs.
And why not do something with Bottom Line and Afterburn? Maybe air footage from house shows on it. JBL & Orlando Jordan vs. John Cena & The Big Show is something that's been happening on SmackDown! house shows, so why not air one of these matches during Afterburn's timeslot, and save the recapping for The Experience.
Maybe this way PPVs will get more build-up and anticipation, and more guys will get a chance to shine.
