Raw these days

Is it just me or does Raw seem sloppy lately? I'm not talking matches, as they have been entertaining me. But the Random shit gimmicks, the dropping of feuds after a week (show vs Masters, did I miss this or something?) The fact that I saw Viscera and a hearthrob team with midgets for no fucking reason while the tag champs don't even get airtime, the IC champ doesn't wrestle and Shelton Benjamin jobs week after week. Kerwin white (they are lucky Chavo is the man), The Con-Way? Renee Dupree and his moustach, the fact that for all we know Danny Basham is tied up in someones basement....... and a strange feeling that Angle and Edge are the only true Main Eventers on the show that should be allowed to touch the belt, (HBK is far from needing it or justifiably having it) because Cena aint doin it for me, his entrance music has a catchy hook, but he just isn't entertainting him, and makeing him Rock style catch phrases isn't going to fix that (for example, did he yell something to the effect of it doesn't matter at Eric last night?).

I hate smackdown too, but that is just expected, but at this point I really miss Randy Orton, Christian, Batista, Benoit and hell.........I'm at the point where I think I miss HHH

Zarr, I agree with you, RAW has been sloppy as of late. As JV always says in his RAW Reviews, it's a "mixed bag." Thankfully for WWE the good most weeks has outweighed the bad, but still, there are a lot of inconsistencies in the booking. Unfortunately, that will never change with WWE's current group of writers, so as fans, we have to sit through some crap to get some good stuff. That's why I never watch RAW live, I tape it and fast-forward through segments I don't want to watch.

I get the point you're trying to make with the sloppiness and i agree. I thought Masters/Show was a lock (no pun intended) for Summerslam. At least tjhat's not as bad as Carlito not fighting at Summerslam, the so-called Wrestlemania of the summer. I don't mind the "Con-way" and I wouldn't really call that sloppy. Ditto for Kerwin White

A lot of things look like they've just been thrown together or booked on the fly (see: Candice and Torrie on RAW), but the most part I'm enjoying it, so I won't complain......except for HBK for HEEL!!!

I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

Turning HBK heel was great, once they figured out that we wanted the classic HBK heel. Turning him back to face so quickly sucks. I'm sure it's religion related. HBK cut the best promo ever in Montreal 2 weeks ago as a heel. Then he blows it all with a not so great promo this week as a face.

Long story short, as a face I find HBK boring and lame (again, religion related). The few weeks he spent as a heel were definitely the highlight of his post-prime career so far.
