If everything wasn't so heavily scripted, I'd be inclined to agree, but even the ones which weren't rigged on those shows directly, I'm almost positive they did indirectly through having a pre-rehearsed plan for each possible outcome.

I can't speak to Raw/PPVs, but...

A live show I went to earlier in the year was showing the usual filler bullshit tweets and whatever before it started. Then they put up a picture for a Twitter vote for the Divas match, which was like a singles match between two main roster divas or a tag match with a couple of NXT divas mixed in.

Literally five seconds after that, they flashed up a results screen with it like 18% to 82% in favor of the tag match for a few seconds.

Guess what the result was two hours later?

No debating that.

But usually when you get the votes its like:
"What Match stip will Dean Ambrose and Bray Wyatt have?"

  1. Falls Count Anywhere
  2. Extreme Rulez
  3. No DQ

Yrah, but on RAW, it seems like more than anywhere else they do this stupid "let's subliminally have them vote for the obvious one, lulz!" "vote-bait" that really fucking pisses me of. Who the fuck are these people to insult my and everyone else's intelligence?

I mean, a lot of them haven't even been necessary. Let's say this is the late '90s, Attitude Era, just for a second.

"WHAT TYPE OF MATCH SHOULD MICK FOLEY HAVE TONIGHT?"

A.) Normal match
B.) Tag Team match
C.) Hardcore match

And then they make it worse by having Lawler or one of the other commentators in the ring to reveal the vote, and they stall for time when they know we all just want them to get it the fuck over with and have the damned match. And the over-the-top feigned "surprise" @ the vote outcome, yeah, that's a real winner. "WOW, THE HARDCORE MATCH GOT 99%?! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?!"

Give me a fucking break.
