I watch Raw from time to time. TNA is better though. WWE went down hill after Stone Cold and The Rock were permanently gone. But I have watched Raw consistently for a few weeks. It just drives me crazy with the whole "Anonymous GM" bit. Quit stalling cause you haven't filled the damn position! Or was that announced tonight and I just missed it? Stopped watching when Sheamus's (or however the hell you spell his name) match was over.

Still nothing, that dang loud Email alert going across the whole arena drives me nuts, you missed the best part of the show, John Cena and his team of Edge, Chris Jericho, The Great Khali, John Morrison, R-Truth, and Bret Hart will face The Nexus at SummerSlam.

The Raw GM will end up being revealed either at SS or the following night on Raw. Great angle to work anyway. I mean, I final clash between Cena and Nexus. Finally a fair fight. It would only make sense. But, knowing the way Raw works these days, it'll be until the next damn Wrestlemania before any questions are answered. Hate I missed that.

If you ask me, make the Raw GM something off the wall. Axel Rose (or Slash). Hell, Phil Anselmo. Then, you can make that GM a heel, have him try to screw the faces out of every match with impossible odds, have the faces win some, lose some, keep the suspense. Pro Wrestling has gotten so predictable. Either the face will win or he will get screwed. How about the heel in the match just...wins? Like they used to. Go back to the days of street fights, ass cream, and beer trucks. Painted bikinis on the Divas, mud wrestling, and limos being filled with cement.

I'm just tired of the predictability. We all know its not real. We watch for the entertainment value and most stopped watching when every Cena angle became "overcoming the odds". Then, when WWE found out that it was getting stale after a year or two, they started having Cena get screwed, even lose a couple matches head up. But it was too late. I remember The Rock and Stone Cold feuding. Epic.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
