Such a shame I missed all the good stuff. My girlfriend used to watch it in the nineties - she's a big Rock/Austin/Hogan fan and even she doesn't really care to watch it nowadays.
As i've not seen the old ones i've not had much chance to compare but I don't think much of it now - all the storylines just end up repeating themselves eventually.
Having said that, I throughly enjoyed last night, there were some good matches but also it was a nice change from the same old stuff. I'd also like to mention HBK vs Flair at WM24, and Undertaker's match against Edge at ONS (the TLC) as matches I really enjoyed.
It goes to show that the WWE can still be brilliant, but it tends to be a rare occurance.
