WWE Raw June 10th, 2002/WWE SmackDown! June 13th, 2002 Watch Along

[Chris]

Yeah we were talking in the raw thread about how trash Keith Lee's theme was now, and like during this time even generic themes were good so they have no excuse

 

[Chris]

Why tf did they ever let go of Jim Johnston

 

[Smart Marx]

Sometimes the generic themes in 2002 were better than a lot of the new "good" themes.

 

[Hoss]

It's honestly just so shockingly easy to see why wrestling isn't as popular as it used to be

 

[Smart Marx]

Angle's theme was a recycled generic theme given to Patriot and it's so iconic.

 

[Chris]

And some people think it's a mystery

 

[Hoss]

APA's theme makes me want to ground my parents

 

[Leon TrotSky]

It's honestly just so shockingly easy to see why wrestling isn't as popular as it used to be

Because the old stars retired while they never bothered to let the new ones soar?

 

[Chris]

Was it you that said Vince will try everything to boost ratings but making his shows good EC?

Facts. Just watching this 2002 watch and I feel like I don't get why people make fun of me so much for saying it was just so much better in 2002 than it is today.

 

[Hoss]

Because the old stars retired while they never bothered to let the new ones soar?

There are many reasons, this being a pretty big one

 

[Smart Marx]

And some people think it's a mystery

I don't.

 

[Hoss]

Was it you that said Vince will try everything to boost ratings but making his shows good EC?

Yes

 

[Chris]

Man wants a quick fix when you gotta actually build shit

 

[Smart Marx]

There are so many things they stopped doing since 2002.
