Yes, i agree we need the old tron back and as far as Raw being slower, you're right, sadly thats the direction wrestling has taken, where a wrestler does a back drop and a suplex and 25 clotheslines and its considered a great match nowadays
people had higher expectations and the wwe had better competition than tna if this was 1998 we would be saying cm punk sucks ass, thats just the way it was |

Shelton does a flip? How often does that happen, Shelton gets his praise for his technical ability. Punk does a kick and we mark out? Are you serious? Punk has loads of charisma and good psychology. I think you are confusing the WWE audience for the TNA audience.

I wish I could watch some old Raws, only got one old raw which i'm sick of watching, but it's still far better than the shit we get today. Even just the music got you hyped up to watch Raw.
It would be so much better if the rosters were rejoined imo. Just look at how it was 'back in the day' for proof of this, at the very least we wouldn't have to wait a whole week to see how a storyline continues/ends. |

Then again, sometimes I do like having two shows a week for one big roster. Some feuds and storylines are sooo bad I just want them over as quickly as possible. |

Not the early seasons of Raw. They had to take a few weeks off for the dog shows on USA.

Ah, yeah, those were the days; Austin stunning whoever just happened to be in the ring, HHH and Shawn getting loads of airtime being D-X, Hogan still showing up, short matches and weird angles, T n A....wait, we ARE talking about 1998, right?

Are you kidding? It's like you didn't even try to hide it. He echoed what the original poster said and then followed it up with popular opinion. That is ALL you do.

Yeah but it would give Vince a reason not to be lazy and push his creative team to make the product better if he had legit competition.
