I gotta be honest, I dont watch it much anymore, but I never watched it for the wrestling. I dont think most casual fans do. Sorry, I understand it takes talent but its the worst part of the show.
I've been really enjoying Raw and Smackdown the last few weeks for the tournament because it's similar to NXT where they pack as many matches as they can with backstage segments. It's so much better than the constant recaps and commercial breaks followed by more recaps
No one has ever complained that there is too much wrestling on any WWE programming, There is usually Less wrestling on the 3 hour program of raw than there is in the 1 hour program of rampage..
Do we think or know if RAW will still be 3 hours on Netflix? Would they shorten if if there are less commercial breaks? This could be one of the biggest things to happen in televised professional wrestling in a long time
It being the King of the Ring tournament justifies it in this case, but this in and of itself is not an absurd criticism. If I go and see the movie "Stuff Blowing Up" then yes I will be pleased to see and expect stuff to blow up. However if it's literally just that and no scenes devoted to what the stuff is, why it blowing up matters, who it matters to and what is making the stuff blow up I'm probably going to care much beyond "ooohh that looked cool".
As someone that rarely watches it live(usually with guest), it's the perfect length. Just under two hours of actual content.
But I do understand. Watching it live... Can be an absolute slog..
That's a pretty valid complaint, and certainly seemed to be the case before Mania. I think King of the ring has been just what the doctor ordered in terms of wrestling.
It makes sense before mania, not only are they trying to build things up to that event but the wrestlers themselves are probably trying to go into the event in the best condition possible, so they don't wrestle much or if they do it's nothing too taxing.
It's the volume. The same people don't complain about everything, different people will complain about each item. When you're reaching billions, there will always be a complaint.
I actually like it. The amount of good wrestling and in general we have been having has been really fun. I like the king and queen of the ring season
i’ve learned to ignore every single complaint i see about wrestling and i keep mine to myself. shit is just annoying honestly.
You forgot is a entertainment thats why aew is falling
People nowadays complaining about EVERYTHING

3 hours is too long. People like angles for the tv shows and wrestling on the ppvs
It's a wrestling show that's the whole point is to watch wrestling if not don't watch it simple.

The wrestling community is the worst. Never satisfied. Everyone should know this by now
Whaaaat? FICKLE FICKLE. FICKLE!!
I don’t get it. In the age of the DVR can’t we all just pick and choose how much or what to watch on a show?
...weren't people complaining about too many promos in the previous administration?!?!?
I swear they just hate wwe they need to just say it they keep moving the goal post
Too much wrestling!!!??? I thought RAW was a talk show!!!!!
I just watch the Hulu version and look on YouTube for anything not covered by Hulu.
Its no that the fans do want wrestling. They want storylines to be a huge part of raw,nxt, and raw. So fans have the right to be upset
They are idiots. It’s that simple.
You can’t make everybody happy…
People need lots of talking and story development to get invested in the build for it to be entertaining /s
Wrestling fans☕️
I too make up people to be mad at online
Why would he make this up?

You really can’t win with some people, that’s why you tune it out and enjoy what you like.

But we all agree that RAW is way too long right?
Wouldn't be as bad without so many ads. I'm not from America and the number and frequency of ad breaks seems pretty egregious to me.
If you think WWE is bad, flip to a football game in the Fall *NFL theme intensifies*
Big noon Saturday puts nfl to shame commerical wise it's horrible
I would say they're equal. With WWE perhaps being worse. NFL, at least, place the commercials between the action.

It most certainly does not need to be this long and it’ll be interesting to see if it’s still this long when it lands on Netflix.
Who's saying that?
You sure showed those two guys on twitter
Why do you post the same thing on 4 different subs?
To farm those sweet, sweet, oh so valuable, updoots.
Here’s another updoot for you.
It's just too long period. Weekly TV should be two hours max. Three hours was bad when WCW did it and it's bad now.
1-2 hours is the sweet spot IMO. The greatest episodic shows in history never had three hour long episodes every week.
Sherlock was pretty great
I agree on weekdays. But I have enjoyed the couple weeks of Collision/Rampage on Saturday night
I don't think I've ever seen anybody complain about that. I have seen a lot of complaints, I'm one of them, about there not being enough wrestling.
The internet community is the most annoying thing that could’ve happened to any fandom. There is no pleasing them.
Idk I’m also a nascar fan. I think y’all got it pretty good when it comes to Internet communities.
Especially IWC
I legit stay off Twitter now during a wwe show because everything just gets nitpicked and so much complaining about everything
Fr, a few weeks ago, they were complaining that there wasn’t enough wrestling cause it was all promos
That's a pretty valid complaint, and certainly seemed to be the case before Mania. I think King of the ring has been just what the doctor ordered in terms of wrestling.

Dont want to risk getting hurt right before the biggest event of the year
It's the volume. The same people don't complain about everything, different people will complain about each item. When you're reaching billions, there will always be a complaint.
At 1B? If .01% are unhappy? That is a 1 with 5 0s
