WCW was fantastic back then, true the PPVs were lacking but the television shows were electric.

And your trying to liken the Arquette decision to giving the belt to Mysterio?  Heck there wasn't even anything wrong with giving the belt to Mysterio, it was how he was booked once he had it that was wrong, people had issue with Arquette because he was an actor and a crap one at that, the basis for Mysterio winning is he uses his speed and agility to beat his opponents nobody is trying to say he is bigger so to speak, anyway thats another discussion, more to do with the suitable champions.

I haven't seen the late WCW to judge them anyway, the way I read it people had issue because they wanted to watch wrestling and got Kiss, Megadeth and Judy Bagwell on a pole.  RAW isn't that far removed, the point is people generally don't want celebrities, total non-wrestling stuff, thats why RAW is bollocks, its people plugging stuff all show that isn't even wrestling.

I have beef with Russo for how TNA is now, but this will get redundant fast, you guys are pro TNA, I'm pro WWE, fair play.  I'd say its fair to say there are times where our bias affects ALL our judgments.

On topic, well done TNA on getting good ratings, RAW needs competition so they get forced into a revamp.
