Last night was Monday Night RAW, and I didn't watch. Infact, for most of the day, I had forgotten about RAW. I felt zero inclination to turn on USA Network last night. A week ago, I also didn't watch until the end, to see Triple H fight Orton. I turned it off as soon as that Alexa Bliss cringe stuff came on.
I haven't checked Smackdown in a while
In contrast, I find myself watching AEW regularly, and I look forward to the shows every Wednesday. I watch each AEW show from start to end

Anyone else watching AEW, but not WWE?

WWE is hard to watch and you know going in the show is going to be terrible. Would usually watch a little bit during commercial breaks on MNF but haven’t bothered the past couple of weeks.
AEW can be a mixed bag with really good and terrible, so it’s unpredictable.Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. -C.S. Lewis

everything wwe does is overproduced. some marks like that. i dont.
aew can get a little indieriffic but overall, its a better product right now. i also find myself looking forward to wednesdays. i think aew has stronger characters than wwe but that will happen when you give the talent a chance to get themselves over.

Watch some Raw and Smackdown but usually get bored after a match or two and shut it off. Always watch the full Dynamite episode every week. NXT is just dumpster fire can’t watch that trash. A retired punter came in and was better than the whole roster for fuks sake.

AEW is often bad or amateur but it’s never boring or predictable. It’s also just an entertaining show, the audio issues, bad women’s wrestling, constant flipping be damned
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

I cant handle WWE at all anymore. The overscripting is too cringey

I dont watch WWE as much, if at all at this point. Its way too scripted and paint by numbers predictable. The wrestlers lost the ability to be creative on their own and seem interchangeable , as in every promo sounds exactly the same- with feuds that dont matter because next month they'll disregard the build up somehow
aew can be faulted for having too many high spots but at least they are letting the talent be talented. creativity and imagination with a fresh prospective is always better. I remember when the lock downs started Jericho had the bubbly crew doing face time stuff on their phones which was funny and new. stuff like that always beats stale wwe scripts
