2 weeks. When Smackdown went from "bad stretch of shows" to "trend of dreadful shows".

I feel like it has been like that for the last 2+ years.

Can't argue that, Big Hoss Rambler. Can't say much good about the PG era, but usually one of the brands is interesting.

2009 gave us a really good Smackdown brand and a catastrophe of a Raw brand. 2010 gave us some interesting SD storylines and the Nexus to keep us interested. Early 2011 sucked pretty hard, but the Summer of Punk on Raw and the post-Michael Hayes era on Smackdown were pretty good last year. 2012 so far has been a complete trainwreck.

Pretty much because wrestling (and WWE generally) takes me back to my youth and once I can suspend my disbelief then I usually enjoy it. I've watched a lot of wrestling companies and whilst those like ROH, PWG and others have great wrestling, they lack a lot of the storylines and obviously lack all the big show feel due to finances etc.

I've had a lot of struggles with depression and things in my life and unfortunately for one reason or another, I seem to deal with a lot of negativity generally. WWE allows me to block all that out and sit back and have fun when I can turn things off and stop myself getting into smark mode (I don't enjoy WWE then and have stopped watching many times when I get that head on) if I can, it allows me to have fun and remember a time when things were much easier.

On the whole I watch both TNA and WWE nowadays but WWE has all the shine and sparkle from having more money and status. Also what I love about WWE is the way it's changed again from the days of having the huge heavyweights as champions. To see CM Punk and Bryan Danielson heading into a Wrestlemania payday as the two world champions is awesome. I also have high hopes to see people like Claudio, Chris Hero, Tyler Black and more head up from FCW in the near future.

WWE does a lot of silly stuff, but when they hit the mark they really knock it out of the park. I'd advise anyone that's my age or in adulthood to try and sit back, have fun and don't armchair book everything, it makes it much better.

I love WWE mainly as it reminds me of my childhood and simpler times. Also because I aint a soap opera fan in the slightest yet the WWE with it's storylines and feuds and promos and weekly shows is basically a soap opera but for blokes mainly. Plus twice a week it's a nice chilled few hours watching RAW or SD and taking it on board then coming on here having a moan or praising the show dependent on how they were that week it's relaxing and something to do other than going out constantly it's my way of unwinding after work.

I love it because of those matches that make you a mark and follow WWE. It just makes you enjoy it and want to become a wrestler.
