Yeah but it was still crap if you think about it. Terrible wrestling, campy angles... it was a real dung pile... it was during a hot time though, and they did some basic things right which kept it afloat.

They've got Cena and have done a tremendous job at protecting him. I know a lot of you got sick of him a long time ago, but he's got that true superstar feel to him. I will tell you we wil be iin for some kick ass programming when he turns heel.

They need to work out the issues of thier totally scripted shows, from the interviews to the predictable segments. This is my #1 problem with the WWE. I can literally sit here and predict the outcome, even down to who is going to interfere and interupt, of every segment. It's ridiculous. There's no spontaneity at all. Even with Cena, who has proven he can go out there and talk on his own. I hate it and it really kills every show.

They also need to write more in depth storylines, especially for the midcard. I'd like to see a lot more hate/passion/emotional attachment involved in these angles. I want to believe that the wrestlers feuding want to rip each other's heads off. This is probably my biggest gripe of them all. I used to love tuning in to see HBK get his ass kicked by Bret or HHH by Foley or Vince by Austin or Kane by Taker or the Outlaws by Foley/Funk or Booker by Rock. The wrting lacks these kind of passionate feuds

Which leads me to the inconsistency of booking. The WWE does this all the time. They fall in love with a guy, give him a nice push and then totally pull his legs out from under him. Punk, MVP, Orton in the past. It really confuses the audience and kills any kind of "superstar" perception they may of had for a particular wrestler. I understand some guys just don't have it, but guys like MVP and CM Punk?

These are just some of the things that kills the shows for me personally today

And to that Not Booked Poster, did you watch WWF 1997 at all? Come on now
The one thing I noticed more than anything else when I have seen snippets of RAW is how contrived the commentary is. It is so blatantly obvious that they are reading off what they are told to say and it completely ruins the match for me. "These two competitors are both bright spots in the company and have shown it here tonight in this match. Also don't forget to watch Carlito's Flamer Fest show on WWE.com. Talk about outrageous!" Fucking pisses me off so much that I want to punch a woman.

Would any of you change your votes now? I'd lower mine to a 2.
