I've been thinking of a few reasons why RAW is sucking, with none of them being because HHH is gone.

I keep thinking that they traded Dave Laguana from SmackDown to RAW during the draft lottery. I am convinced that Laguana can't write a good wrestling show worth shit. And while, since the draft lottery, RAW has been full of shit in their shows, SmackDown seems to be getting the better end right now, with Christian's supurb mic skills finally being milked with the Peep Show, a Rey/Eddie feud that is just plain RIDICULOUS as to how over it is right now, and while Batista isn't the best WHC in the world, he has been a solid one. Not to mention Orton/Taker round 2 coming up. So why is it that RAW is starting to become what SmackDown was in the middle of 04? This has to be one of the main reasons. Or maybe it's because they are focusing a bit on SD now (and I would say it would be about damn TIME if they actually ARE).

Also, I don't agree with LC on the Hardy/Snisky thing. I think it was perfect to show that Hardy has had that "ring rust" they like to label on people that haven't been in a WWE ring in a long time. However, Vince is a retard, and JR botches as a play by play guy, so I'm asking too much out of them.

The Diva search would be saved if Ashely wins, because she's the only one there I really CARE about right now.

Chris Masters is a waste of time. Although it IS nice of the WWE to give us that piss break known as the Masterbore. And WTF was he doing getting over on Benjamin? As Gouda has been saying, WHO BOOKED THAT CRAP?!!

And while I don't blame the WWE for capalizing on Cena's overness right then and there, it was TOO early to give him the title at that point. Either that, or...

It's the failure to have anyone they got from SmackDown amount to anything. Cena is just being misused period, Angle is stuck feuding with Eugine when he should be doing so much more higher up on the card, the Big Show could be one of the most threatening heels on RAW for the WWE Championship, RVD is injured with no set date to return, and they botched the Cabana/Highlight Reel competition by killing the Cabana and having Jericho and Carlito in cahoots (why?). Basically, they've got all these guys that were the top people on SmackDown and just buried them on RAW.

So it's not that HHH is gone that is causing RAW to suck, it's the stupidity of the writers to botch writing an entertaining show...that, and maybe they DO have Laguana now.
