if you want Raw to go back to 2 hours, you have to stop watching. No dvr, no quick channel flips, you have to stop watching, completely.
Watching the show, then coming to the internet to say it was a bad show won't change anything. USA doesn't care if you liked the show or not, they just want their ad money, which they got, because even a terrible episode of Raw outdraws most other shows on cable.

My quick suggestion would be for WWE to move the Raw pre-show to USA for one hour before Raw, then have Raw for 2 hours. That way, USA still gets 3 hours of WWE programming and the fans get a 2 hour Raw. All of the fans who enjoy the 3 hour Raw, still get 3 hours of WWE on monday night. IMO, it really wouldn't be that much different, since most of the current 3 hours is made up of interviews and recaps. That's perfect content for a pre-show. Seemingly, everybody wins.

They need less talk
new matches
and
less color commentary

WWE is like mma to me now.
Pride was the end all be all of mma. The absolute greatest era ever. Unfortunately, that era is over and all that are left are memories. Sure there will be some flashes of brilliance here and there, but the magic is gone. Same for WWE and the attitude era, aka: the best we'll ever see. (My opinion)
Also, as with mma, the indy scene is where the fun is at now.

Royal Rumble should be where they bring up a bunch of the NXT guys to debut. Let Zayn, Neville, Itami, and Balor all be in the final six or so. Maybe even have one of them win it if they're confident enough in their futures.

Just bought a nice Kaz Hayashi BBM auto here in Japan for $7. Saw him put on an AMAZING match at W-1 the other day.

[Ty Hope]

My pickups today. $15 for the pair

Kaz Hayashi #d to /80


Aja Kong #d to /50

Did anyone else hear on Raw that Roman will be out for several months. At first they said 4-6 weeks, but several months, geez. WWE just can't keep people healthy.

[kingofkings487]

I hope he gets better but this works in wwe favor know then can have the reigns vs lesnar wrestlemania main event they wanted next year for the title...he'll return at rumble n win it then he'll face lesnar for title at wrestlemania

[geoffyb]

If you find another kaz let me know. Would love to have one

[fazzle]

Reigns' injury is a blessing in disguise. If they kept on pushing him as the next big star all the way through until Mania, there's a good chance the fans would have completely turned on him by that point. Now that he's gone for a little while, he'll be fresh again by the time he comes back.

Today's pickups in Japan.

The Rock 1/1 plate from chrome. Got it for $30


Prince Devitt BBM auto #d 08/90. He's one of the few in the set that is a sticker auto, but still very cool. Talked the owner down to $20.

Also grabbed an auto of Manabu Soya whom I've become a fan of lately.

@ty .. nice pickups .. especially the new "finn baylor" of nxt

[mnvikingstwins]

This dude looks like Lesnar beating the guy that good. Skip forward to like :34

I want that Devitt badly lol

[Ty Hope]

They've been tough to track lately. Since getting called to the wwe, his autos have dried up over here. I know of one more from a previous year that I may grab too. $45 though... Debating.

Stephanie McMahon was on a Chicago Talk show and basically stated never say never and that Punk was a fun character to work with and we will see what the future holds to a Punk Return.



So..... Return tonight confirmed

He is not coming back anytime soon. He wants to be champ and main event WM and that is not happening. Him leaving like he did was the worst thing he could of done, now he has the label of being unreliable and hard to work with.

I was kidding lol, I'm a fan,but I'm not that delusional.

[GoJays]

Dancing with the Stars or RAW? Never thought this would be a question, but they both have the same entertainment value as of late...

[Miamiheat6]

Diss on punk lol

[natbornkiller]

16 + minutes and counting

[BoxBreaker72]

Here comes a commercial parade to make up for the opening segment.

It's so hard to stay with a show with a commercial every 6 minutes.

[mnvikingstwins]

So Bray is solo now, right? Didn't catch all of the first vignette, but that one was incredible.

[Rhyster66]

Soooo..... This raw sucked
