Despite being the worst wrestling show on tv its the highest rated one

Even looking at WWE programming alone its the worst of the four.

No kidding.  The one show that I want to watch is banished to a crappy timeslot I can't stay up for (Smackdown).  The one show I don't want to watch has a cushy time slot.  Go figure.

Even though I don't watch it live, for some reason I like the fact that it's broadcast live and has that live atmosphere. Don't really know how I can explain that one.

I like HHH and Michaels together (some don't, I do Happy) and TBH most of the guys on the show I don't mind. I don't dislike Raw as much as some people do, but I can see why they don't like it. The guest host stuff only seems to really work when the host is an ex-wrestler (and the crowd are awake *coughTorontocough*) and a heel announcer world be nice. I could go on, but to me, Raw is OK. Somewhere in the middle. Average. Etc.

Yeah, but the live atmosphere only goes so far.  There are never any surprises on RAW anymore.  The amount of wrestling is very little and at this point I'm not sure it is worth wading through the other junk to get to it.  I would like a normal gm/commish type if only because that would ensure more wrestling and less entertainment.  I wish they'd bring back some blood to the shows too (not likely since Linda's senate run), anything to keep it more interesting than it is now.
