You can spot a fall out within quality within a 5 year span.. Look at WWE Unforgiven 2005 and Look at WWE Hell in the Cell 2010

The presentation was more lively and in your face
The crowd energy was there
The pacing within the show was much better
Of course the Commentary from JR and King were spot on.
Matt Hardy/Edge stole the show

Fast forward to 2010-To this period
The Crowds for the most part were quiet and looked asleep
The pacing of the matches were just slow and dull
The show looked over produced and glossy
Orton/Sheamus and Taker/Kane were basically standard matches with usage of a cage here and there.
It looked like your typical Raw

2005 was still running on Attitude Era fumes, a number of those stars were either full time or still active parts of the show in other ways, and the New New Gen was really barely getting its footing. By 2010, it was a new generation of OVW/Deep South dudes and second generation guys without any of the charisma their fathers had, Austin wasn't a character anymore, HHH and Taker were part timers, HBK was gone, Edge was probably hurt, the Hardys were gone, Batista was gone, Cena's run at top was already longer than Bret/Rock/Austin/HBK and still had years to go, Kane/Show/Henry were basically the last men standing and otherwise it was a whole generational switch over.

The switch to HD really might have done more harm than good for WWE, as it made everything so uniform, clean, and bland on every show.

To always get a good laugh..Rumble 2015. They really thought they were smart. Bryan in for 10 minutes, as if they didnt pay to see him..have him get tossed by a heel. Then the fans eventually get behind Ambrose and Ziggler. They got tossed like nobodies...Roman getting booed like Hassan..first time he got turned on. It was all adding up. That fake superstar of the year award..which definitely was a Bryan Award. Him entering the Rumble whooping ass and looking dominant. Fans saw through the diarrhea. Lol.

From what I remember he was starting to get turned a bit around Summerslam 14. RR 15 was the first severe heat I think.
