Are you saying that SmackDown was booked better than Raw was booked? Or that SmackDown was booked to be better than Raw?

Like whenever there was crossover, or Bragging rights, or Night of champions, they always went out of the way to make sure smacldown looked stronger than raw ... So that people would take them serious in a sense.
Smackdown got a better "push" than WCW |

Same thing happened with talent. Smackdown got good, started building stars. RAW started becoming SSDD, so what happened to "make it fresh"? They brought in hot Smackdown acts, because RAW is the flagship show. |

Also, about that list of derailed stars a page ago: I still hope for the day that we get a World Heavyweight Title Match of Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston. Those guys click as opponents.

Lastly, the Punk/UFC thing seems kind of like a "fuck you" to Vince about the whole *non-compete/but they're not competition* mention about UFC.
He seems like the kind of guy who maybe thought about stepping into an octagon, but that made him a bit pissed enough to actually want to jump into it for at least the self-satisfaction of blatant spite. |

It was shit like Hunter getting drafted to Smackdown on the Monday but getting traded back for half a dozen other guys by the following week. Raw is always going to be the A show solely for the fact it's live.

Ya but that trade put Booker T on Smackdown! That was the best place for Booker to be at.

What does it say about our business that it's safer to get punched in the face for real than it is to pretend to get punched in the face?

Think its more the grind, Brock even said a training camp 2 or 3 times a year was easier on his body than the constant travel schedule in WWE.

Punk isn't the only one to call him reckless in the ring.

To be fair Ziggler would get concussed by a spitball.

You get really annoying when you talk about CM Punk.

Did Punk say that Ryback broke his ribs on purpose? Legitimately asking. Don't remember that but he could've. Thought he just said he was a stiff fuckhead that was an idiot. Seem to remember him painting the picture of him breaking his ribs because he was a huge moron, not because he was doing it intentionally.

Basically he said, after Ryback broke his ribs, he went to him in the back and said, "Either you're a total fucking idiot, or you're doing this on purpose, in which case you need to knock it the fuck off," and Ryback responded, "I'm a total fucking idiot."
