Thats true because the past few weeks I've watched RAW spoiler free and it has been blah.
Yet I've read the spoilers for ECW, Superstars and Smackdown for the past few weeks and enjoyed 'em loads knowing what was happening.
My likening of it to the Nitro things was there was a surprise/shock/debut nearly EVERY week over a few month period, I'm guessing most in the current climate would have been wrecked.
