Bruce Prichard HAD to pitch this to Vince, this is what they were doing in TNA when he was there.

sidebar: I thought you were able to watch the action during the commercials on the WWE app, or did they stop doing that?

Nah Pritchard was long gone by then. That was the Billy Corgan era with the "Grand Championship". It killed the pacing of the matches in TNA because the rounds were too short and at the end of each round things would just slow down and guys would start grounding and pounding and it was obvious that they were killing time at that point.

That was a terrible idea too man. Anything involving judges in TNA was just bad.

Since wrestling during ads is now a problem for Vince why can't WWE just work in collaboration with USA and whichever advertisers that don't have WWE programming on their DNA (do not advertize) lists to integrate the ads into the show as "sponsors". USA already has a run-down of the segments and how long they're supposed to run so why don't they just have graphics made for the advertisers and just have Michael Cole or whoever give one of those "this episode of Monday Night Raw is proudly brought to you by Geico (or whatever).

They already do it for their own sponsors and I doubt the advertisers would give much of a shyt seeing as they don't mind their ads being played during WWE programming anyway. Just arrange the matches and promo segments around the product placement. That way you get your uninterrupted match without killing the live crowd. They had an "ad free" Raw once that was filled with graphics and shyt for KFC and other companies. This would be along those lines.

Rounds make no sense whatsoever. It isnt amateur or close to it. And the whole spectacle of main events is story based...you'll fukk up half a century of legendary matches by acting like rounds have legitimacy.

So are they just going to get rid of that picture in picture thing they do during commercials for SD now?

This will be trash for the live crowds. It makes sense during an entrance right before a match starts, but this new way it’s silly as hell

It really is. As soon as The Club showed up during the AJ match I knew that was the excuse to take a break and halt the action.

This is a stupid idea just like the wildcard.
