Corey better eat his Wheaties and take his vitamins because he got some long nights ahead of him.
I'm going to be optimistic about the chances of this being good. If they can get the pacing and booking right (those nonsensical finishes and filler segments kill the crowd a lot of the time) this could work, especially if they give us decent builds to the matches.

Man, I've fallen asleep midway through so many shows lately. I dunno how I'm gonna manage these 4 hour PPVsIf these 4 hr ppv's arethen I'm not watching them.
I can usually force myself through 3 hrs of raw shyte but this is getting too much.
I'm not staying up until 4am every Sunday.
.I started watching Backlash, started to doze off during Jax v Bliss, then Orton v Hardy just finished me. Woke up to messages from my mate saying that Backlash sucked.
Sometimes I literally only watch Raw just to read the threads here
. Even when the episodes are bad, I can at least rely on the brehs to shyt on it and provide some fukkery.

It's ironic, I just read an interview from the Young Bucks stating how they want to keep their "All In" show to 3 hours because they did not want to bore the crowd or drain them. Now this news comes out............they can barely book an entertaining show for 3 hours. I can't wait to see how this plays out
Why is he still commentating for both shows anyway? They should have put Nigel on Smackdown's commentary."Bathroom breaks are for the weak. Go piss in a bottle Corey Graves! Your soul is mine, yelling in your ear non-stop!"
Everyone else has at least half the card to go and do their business. Graves gotta pray for a musical performance.

"Brand split" y'all
Progress, TNA is stepping up, Lucha Underground, New Japan, and many other options are out there. MLW is another rising alternative too.
Imo the WWE product this past year is the worst since 2009. It’s arguably worse than 2009 too.
They don't hear ya though
Folks including you and Ace been speaking the gospel in here and probably other forums, but nobody checking for these promotions. Even if they do, it's only for a brief session and some ooohs and ahhs before it's back to Monday, Tuesday, and some Sunday nights
. We are living in some beautiful times to be a wrestling fan but folks still talk about WWE like there's no other option. It reminds me of when folks bytched about the NFL being
, yet catching Patriots games. It's like this, either watch the shyt sporadically like I do, watch the shyt on the Big 4 occasions, or don't watch the shyt at all to have peace within yourself
.
The only thing I remember about 2009 was those stupid guest hosts and Sheamus winning the title
. Beyond that, it made the New Generation era look like NJPW in Inoki prime
Who's in TNA now? They have a "getting better" period every year then fall off around fall.
It's definitely worse now. The shows are directionless, repetitive, and boring. I've never seen the product so diluted and bland. What's even more inexcusable is all of the indy talent that they've snatched who are being wasted. Even homegrown talent like Authors of Pain were 2 dominant figures who were reduced to Main Event status just one month after their main roster debut.
Like people have been saying, there's nothing wrong with wrestling in itself but just having wrestling without anything at stake is
