Every match on Raw is getting a lot of time. The match lengths we are getting now is what I hoped for when Raw initially went 3 hours. It weird to finally get it. The matches on the show actually get build up and there's natural transitions between segments.
More of the underutilized guys are getting TV time. I noticed how Chad Gable is being used now. On that end guys like Omos have disappeared from TV.
Raw right now is feeling like black and gold NXT.
TBS has been doing weekly old school, magazine-style previews of AEW shows. This is my favorite so far:
Love that Danhausen's nickname has spread to Billy, lol.

Road Dogg is back with the company
Ratings are significantly up in the HHH era so far. But we'll see if they can establish the momentum. They still need the soap opera'ish type storylines and combine it with real, good wrestling.WWE has been better but still not great turning it into NXT isn't going to help I don't think.
In a news article its said Edge told the crowd at RAW he plans to retire next year. Its a darn shame Judgement Day couldn't be the final end for his career and him leading a stable. Instead it was ruined through bad moves.
"The story so far: As usual, Ginger and I are engaged in our quest to find out what the hell is going on and save humanity from my nemesis, some bastard who is presumably responsible." - Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.
“ Well hell just froze over. Because CM Punk is back in the WWE.” - Jcogginsa.
“You can take the boy outta the mom’s basement, but you can’t take the mom’s basement outta the boy!” - LA Knight.
"Revel in What You Are." Bray Wyatt.
The future is here
Shame WWE fired his father, would have been neat to see them together
Had Vince and Creative not screwed up the Judgement Day storyline and stable...it would have been Edge getting some new stars over in company on his way out his final year. I like Edge came back on his terms and showed he could. Years ago people blasted Kurt Angle or Hulk Hogan who said Edge could return. Thinking one of them was an uncaring moron etc.

i think it says a lot. crowds in different parts of the country react differently to things. if you can make people in the south care one week and the next make people on the west coast care i think's it's fair to say making people care isn't an issue.
yes, that's why i said "i got what you meant" i only pointed it out because part of your response was along the lines of "YOU might like him, but he's bland to ME" my point stands regardless of whether or not i like him.Come on man, isn't my opinion implied in my posts? I don't need say "IMO" all the time to imply that.
Particularly in reference to stuff that's not at quantifiable or measurable.
Fair enough.
i'm still curious to know who the "veterans" are?? are omega & the bucks considered the young guys?? jericho is obviously not a veteran??
xactly what i said. work or shoot it was bad.
yeah, if there's ever a time for the blondes to put their foot down this was probably it. they seem like a decent team, i'd like to see them get booked as a competitive team to see what they can do.
it's definitely been a substantial improvement. it's kind of funny that their mostly getting buzz by simply rehiring wrestlers they should never have fired in the 1st place.
NXT is going to unify the main belt and the UK belt. Is UK merging with the main brand or is Europe going to have it's own lineage?
I'll take your word for it because I haven't traveled around to gauge interest in Daniel Garcia.i think it says a lot. crowds in different parts of the country react differently to things. if you can make people in the south care one week and the next make people on the west coast care i think's it's fair to say making people care isn't an issue.
Your opinion on Daniel Garcia is your opinion and mine is mine.yes, that's why i said "i got what you meant" i only pointed it out because part of your response was along the lines of "YOU might like him, but he's bland to ME" my point stands regardless of whether or not i like him.
As you said, people like Danielson but you're not crazy about him and that's ok. I don't think anyone here has tried to convince you otherwise. I'm still not sure why we are still discussing my opinion on a guy I feel is very bland.
It's a circular discussion.
