I've figured it out! Many have mentioned how there are no "RAW" fans or "SmackDown" fans, there are only "WWE" fans. Well, this must be the way they are going about building "brand loyalty", as SmackDown appears to be the "net-friendly" show, while Raw, well, is not. Hence, if they keep running this crap on RAW, eventually there truly will be SmackDown only fans.

They just seem to have forgotten what to do about establishing RAW only fans...

One minor problem with this idea: IF you make only half your audience watch RAW, and half decide to only watch SD, your only going to be pulling 2.0 ratings, and both shows will get canceled.



I want you to know, I agree with everything I've just said.

Hey, I never said it was an INTELLIGENT idea, I just can't figure out why else they would be pulling this crap and alienating tons of casual viewers, self included.

You'd think it would be possible to make the shows individual without resorting to tasteless, trash angles, but what do I know?

Of course it's possible... in a perfect world, maybe...

You know, there ARE people that like what's happening on RAW right now, they just don't hang out online with us all day.

For example my GF LOVES the stuff they're doing on RAW. It reminds her of the wacky stuff they were doing a few years back when she got interested in WWF. I wasn't going to bother watching the HHH Video last week, but she was interested, so we did. She LOVED it, and I got an unexpected kick out of it as well. Personally, I thought it was pretty ok, and think it would have been better had it been DONE WELL. The way they did it was too long and boring.

I hear Kevin Kelly's wife liked it, too.

I like over the top stuff, but the HHH thing was a lil to over the top. I dont mind the route there going... i just could think of things funnier than necrophilia. Although u cant blame Raw for trying to do something to actually make a broadcast memorable. And it has definitely created a stir in the IWC.. but more of a WCW DAVID ARQUETTE CHAMPION stir

Who ARE these women? This is like the fifth post with my wife/ girlfriend/ sister/ best friends sister loved the necrophiliac segment reply.

Guys you wanna pic up chicks forget flowers, throw away the candy, scented candles will never work... What you do is grab a mannequin or a blow up doll and lay the lumber on it. Girls seem to love that!

Don't really know if going into detail here is the right place because we all know a wrestling messageboard is no place for wild speculation and innuendo

I don't know who these women are, but my wife, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law are pretty fed up and they have been watching wrestling now for the past couple years.

I heard this show is like the late and beloved WCW Worldwide- a place where the wrestling goes into a Formalist train of thought.
