The RAW set is so ugly and bland

Postby Messiah » Aug 16, '14, 10:10 pm

Why have they not updated yet? It has been the exact same thing since 2008 and looks worse every week. I know they have to use a certain tron due to HD but can they not get more creative? What makes it worse is it is the exact same set for SmackDown too, not like SmackDown matters anymore.

But the biggest problem is it usually leads to all of the pay-per-view sets looking the same as RAW too with the exception of the Big Four pay-per-views.

Are they not meant to be changing it sometime soon?

Yeah, I disliked it as soon as it came in too. It's not terrible or anything, but the giant screen and the hidden entrance for the wrestlers just looks a bit ugly to me. There's not a lot of design there.

I'd like them to change up a lot of things visually over the next while. They could do with a bit of rebranding after this amount of time.

Well they used the RAW set for SummerSlam tonight. I wish it was the pre-HD when every show had different sets including PPV's

I wish it was at least different for PPVs. Even tonight for Summerslam it was the same thing. :(

Yeah the setup they have is kinda boring. I miss the days where all the PPV's had their own unique sets to make them stand out from the pack of PPV's. Now it's all the same, even Raw and SD. I mean the huge HD set is impressive for what it is, but sometimes less is more.

I noticed that too, that explains why it really lacked a big show feel when I tuned in. I miss when they used to get really creative with the sets for all their PPVs, not just WrestleMania.

Stuff like that really takes away from making the ppv stand out.

Putting abit of effort into it like changing the ring ropes, something on the mat and set design help sell that this is a big show. I'm just glad I got to see Cena getting his shit pushed in otherwise I prolly would have stopped watching :D
