The Official WWE Discussion Thread

I'm surprsied, I thought it was predictable, and shit quite frankly, because obviously they will there for SD and Raw next week, so this whole walk out is irrelevant and pointless....clearly Vince / Johnny Laurinitis will be the bad guy....blah blah blah

Woo Woo Woo You Know It...and that's the bottom line

Well I told you, kind of.

Awful show, awful writing and a storyline with some potential ends up being like all the other shit. Speaks volumes when not one person has posted since Raw!

What has happened to Punk's character? From a lone badass, to just another babyface?

Too many loose ends and logic gaps - who lowered the Hell in a Cell to allow Miz and Truth's attack? If HHH is still COO but not Raw GM, what powers has he actually lost? Poor writing

Typical wwe fucking up a storyline. Apparently vince didn't like what the writers had scripted for the show and decided to scrap what was originally planned a few hours before raw aired. Made punk look so weak having HHH come save him from Awesome Truth so fuck all has changed i just hope that they will somehow stick to the conspiracy angle.

Just so much they could have done with this storyline and once again vince has to fuck it up! JR getting fired again WTF talk about poor form the one good thing about the commentary team has now gone which means the mute button will be used by me a lot in future.

WWE is in a shocking state, all because there is no real competition, so they do what they want.

Only parts I enjoyed was Cody beating on Orton and Punk making fun of Nash's slow walking!

It started off fine enough but got stupider as the night went on. This is supposed to be the "Reality Era" but there was fuck all realistic about that. I mean no punishments were handed down to those that went on strike. Johnny Laurinitis is useless has no skills whatsoever he makes Mike Adamle look like The Rock!

I did like the Punk one man commentary team a whole 15 mins or so with out cole bellowing was pure bliss.
Cody impressed again (he really does have the best voice in wrestling) nice Dr Evil laugh too

Time for McMahon to ditch all the shitty 'Hollywood' writers that don't know shit about wrestling and create a proper creative team with people from a wrestling background only; Guys like Dusty Rhodes, Michael Hayes; Christ, I'd give Jake Roberts and Raven a call. At least they would be able to really help the ypunger guys pad out their characters and give the fans more reason to get behind them. Right now WWE is every bit as bad a show to watch as TNA; The only difference is TNA is watchable in a 'so bad it's good' way.

I agree, but it's not just the creative team that needs an overhaul.

The commentators need to be revamped, Raw for me should be JR (face) & Regal (heel), and SD should be Cole (or Josh Matthews) as the face & Booker T as the heel.

The theme songs of both shows need to be changed, and the logo and look of Raw needs to be updated.

As you said, more wrestling type writers need to be drafted for the very reason you said, as they can flesh out characters and storylines so much better.

Most importantly, they need to stop treating the viewers as idiots who won't think and question storylines and whether they make sense or not, and they need to stop assuming we don't remember WWE's previous storylines.

The product is bollocks at the moment, and twice now this year, and at least once last year, WWE had the chance to change it all with storylines that had great potential, but they just shat all over them as soon as they started...real shame

i just wanted to say, raw started off nearly perfectly, then vince came out (still good-ish at that point) then he said, "you have been relived from your duties" then... yeah, it was gayer than michael cole dressed in gay pink after that, why can't they just have a nice few weeks or months, by which i mean a period of time where almost, i repeat, ALMOST everyone is liked and there's very few boos... well, at least not from a gm type figure

This article sums up all the feeling I have about Raw and WWE:
