    Appeals to the younger ones, which brings us back to the reasons for the gimmicky *.

    I get they don't want to return to stuff like bra and panties matches and embarrassing and degrading stuff.

    But can we get back to edgier stuff that gives reason why two men (or the ladies) would want to fight.

    Totally agree.

    Stop making superstars that look as though they’re only there to do their entrance. There’s a way to do it where you can enjoy both.

    Looking at the current crop, I really like Ethan Page in NXT for example. Has a * cracking tune but doesn’t * about milking it on his way to the ring. Looks like a character that just wants to hurt people.

    I get different characters have different vibes and it’s easier if you’re a heel etc. But there are ways you can do it without it turning into a concert

    Nxt is something I'm looking forward to seeing more of.

    Shorter shows and potentially more about the fights I guess, with storylines being lesser

    Defo mate. Still got NXT to watch from last night.

    Won’t manage it tonight with Celtic on though. Priorities!

    Oh, I thought it was tonight as well.

    Ach, the joys of netflix and on demand though.
    So long as I steer clear of social media, catching up a couple days through the week ain't too bad.

    Much better than back in the day having to catch it at 1am or a rerun later in the week when you're working.

    If people want more matches I don't think you'll get them. The previous Raw had 4 matches, before that 5, before that 3.

    Smackdown has a similar amount over 2 hours.
