TNA is going live from the end of the month, which I think should make the show more enjoyable.
Brooke Hogan is getting a prominent role in the show, which I think should put me off watching any of the live episodes.
Raw is going to three hours from July, which I think is complete suicide.

Yeah WWE are crazy, they can barely keep the 2 hours they have entertaining. They should have added an extra show instead of extending Raw. Have a cruiserweight show or a Divas show or soemthing.

1st 20 minutes of raw might be decent, and then maybe the last half hour. that's 130 minutes of garbage filler and ads

and i'll be in the timezone to watch it, this is sh*t news!!!

Apparently the Danielson/ Punk fight was awesome, didn't see it yet myself but sure it wouldn't be hard to be awesome when you have Kane, Big Show & Cena on the bill

Bet it's nowhere near as good as their ROH days either

It was the best match of the worst PPV in ages. TBH it was a decent match but I didn't think it was amazing by any stretch. Good wrestling but the lack of build up meant there was no story to it and no real heat IMO.

Only seeing Orton's banned for 60 days for steroid abuse. 3rd time too. Last chance saloon for him.

Never fucking liked him much anyway - he always acted the c*nt if anyone made a mistake (regardless of how inconsequential and at what point in the match it may have occurred) and considering the pace & speed they work at the last thing you need is someone berating you when you know you fucked up.

But if HE fucked up - well then that was a different story altogether.

God, it's really gone off the boil recently. Hope WWE sign AJ or Amazing Red or do something to get me interested again

Its terrible now. I've stopped watching, just getting the recaps. I'll probably just watch the PPVs until the Summer Slam build starts

Haven't been watching since Brock lost, but I keep a pretty close track of it, the morbid curiosity of this three hour shift is keeping me interested, Orton's suspension just sweetens the deal. Apparently a lot of backstage are very keen to get rid of him now, I bet it was those comments he made about how wrestlers should be allowed more breaks to stop becoming so stale and whatnot really annoyed Vince and pals rather than his earlier twattiness.

Weirdly, TNA sounds like it's mostly making a really good product lately, excluding all Hogan stuff. Problem I have is that I've basically seen every feud they can offer already, so it's about 2-3 years too late for me.

Do you think WWE would want Orton over on TNA though? Whatever you want to say about him he's probably the best proven worker in the company (Bryan and Ziggler maybe capable of challenging that soon). If TNA fluked their way into hitting the right story with him it could be big.

As for TNA itself I've heard the good reports too but I can't bring myself back to it until Hogan and Bischoff are gone. The stuff with Bischoffs son just sounds pathetic.

I didn't see it but apparently they finished Raw with a choke out last night - last night being the 5 year anniversary of the Chris Benoit memorial show. Oops.

Looks like they've ruined the MITB gimmick with this PPV this year.

They've got Cena and a few other main eventers in it instead of the upper midcarders. Really the fun of it was seeing who'd get a title shot/run out of the guys who don't usually get one. Who gives a sh*t if Cena, Jericho, Kane, etc have a title shot.
