That's a very good point. Kurt Angle said he would have gone to UFC/MMA in 1999 if it was as big as it is today.

Vince is getting senile and thought making Raw 3 hours woudl be a good idea. "It'll be 50% longer.. 50% more awesome!".. yeah. The problem is, they needed to fill the extra hour with compelling TV using people who werent getting on TV when Raw was 2 hours. They arent though, theyre just playing more recaps and more social media bullshit.

^It wasn't Vince idea for 3 hours. USA wanted 3 hours for a while. WWE was against it but eventually caved in because of the short term profit they would make.

This.

Oh and personally, since I've been enjoying RAW recently, he must be delusional.

The product has been crap since mid 2006 in my opinion. If he's only just getting upset about it then he's obviously lost his mind.

He's like 6 years late but better late than never.

WWE is not run poorly, what a massively inaccurate thing to say. They are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, having more long-term success than any wrestling company in history. They have numerous television shows, solid business plans, strong sponsors, make tremendous money from merchandise and licensing, and have an annual show that draws 70,000 into a massive stadium to watch wrestling. If that's poorly run, I'd love to see what brilliantly run is.
