December 12th Raw is War...
Larrabee:
I've been watching for over 15 years now, and one thing I can say is that WWE will always have that core of wrestling fans that will stick with them through the best & worst times. The thing is, they need to rebuild that fanbase that jumped on the bangwagon in 98-99, when wrestling hit that boom period. I agree with what Sik said, Vince is either hit or miss at times. Nowadays, some of the material is just a little too tasteless. The way they handled J.R.'s dismissal was ridiculous and the lowrider blowup angle from the Smackdown special was just fucked up. I don't care if individuals, including Chavo himself said it was alright, Eddie Guerrero passed away a little over a month ago, and they're on TV crashing and exploding his trademark lolo. Sometimes, it just hits really low levels.
Trauma-san:
^ No worse than the shit they pulled back in the day, though. Remember them having Hawk stumble around like a drunk and they acted like he fell off the titon tron one day? Or them making fun of Jake the Snake's alcoholism. The Montreal Screw Job, etc. Vince has always been a prick.
Larrabee:
^^Right but if I remember correctly both Hawk & Jake Roberts agreed to go along with those storylines themselves. The lowrider incident was just tasteless, imo. It's obvious that they're desperate for ratings.
Sikotic™:
Was the lowrider really that tasteless? It was a car not Eddie Gurrero himself.
Trauma-san:
Yeah, I didn't see a problem with it. Of course I'm not an opressed minority so what the fuck would I know, right?
