Don't you dare be sour and list those damn things that you like. My list would look like this:

Karrion Kross as NXT Champion
The storyline between Cameron Grimes and Ted DiBiase
The Way & the storyline between Indi Hartwell and Dexter Lumis
Legado Del Fantasma (Santos Escobar is great)
Hit Row
Seth Rollins' current SmackDown Savior gimmick
The Intercontinental Championship scene involving Apollo Crews, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens and Big E
Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode as a tag team (sad that they lost the titles last night)
Aleister Black's vignettes
The storyline between Roman Reigns, Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso

As you can see, I listed 5 things from NXT and 5 things from SmackDown. I'm glad that I started watching SD again.

The fact that podcasters etc. aren't constantly saying how terrible everything is (even though it's not that different to me).

I miss comedy acts like R-Truth, New Day face, Dean Ambrose, Santino Marella, Lawler...

Taking SNME as the example.

The matches were a good length, not unnecessarily long.

The camera work was very very good. No rapid changes, picture looked great a little to close but in the past you could tell which of the women wore underwear.

The flashing polarized light was minimized and scattered. Fantastic. I did not see any blinding white.

Production wise it was a winner.

I really like that Vince is no longer involved from a wrestling-product perspective. Things like the TNA deal & some other presentation things are much better - they actually use the world 'wrestling' again! And I have more faith in others as far as booking/roster decisions than with Vince.

I also like that they are on Netflix though I'm praying its not long before the entire vault is on Netflix. I want to go back & start watching the product from 98/99/00 ish onward & they are missing like 10 full years of Raw/Smackdown.

Lastly is there a "random thing you hate" thread? Cause my 'old school' pet-peeve take is that the plastic/screen covered ring posts are just awful.

Everyone long knows the business is a work, but atleast try to maintain some believability with the presentation. The plastic doesn't look like it hurts, when you see them it makes the whole thing immediately look like a broadway musical, and I don't even think they add much to the presentation.

Sorry for mini-hijack but just bring back the steel ring-posts. Make it look like wrestling. Glad Vince is no longer around.
