Decent year for programming, especially compared to 2011, 2010 and 2009.
Great year financially.

I watched 2011 from June onward and thought the programming was much better on Raw and Smackdown.

I preferred Smackdown to RAW overall during 2011 due to the hands off approach from Vince to the show back then. We got the Henry reign and the original rise of Bryan back then. Raw was more hit and miss for me at the time.

2012 was overall more decent on both shows, evening itself out. At least for me.

2011 >>>> 2012

I don't see how anyone can say otherwise.

I don't see how. Johnny Ace was a bigger part of the match than Ziggler.

Like many of Ziggler's matches in 2012 it was thrown together for him to job to someone.

Ziggler was booked like a bitch in that match against punk at the rumble. Punk had him beat like three times before he got the actual win due to the overbooking nonsense. Terrible match.
