I guess it depends what you think of the people who are launching the complaints. I in no way value their opinion, so it's tough to not make fun of them. But I can see how people on here like yourself would see it the other way.

Again though, JBL and even Heyman intentionally wouldn't address the actual issue which is multi-fold. Should WWE move Raw from 3 back to 2 hours? There's no one-size fits all answer, unless all you're concerned with is purely the financial implications.
Purely based on finances, of course not, at least not currently. If you're looking at it based strictly on the current finances, no one here has suggested going back to 2 hours. We all get that.
Creatively (and maybe even financially) in the longer term, it's definitely something Vince should consider or at least never say never to. Imagine if Raw were to go back to 2 hours, perhaps creative would improve, and as a result of improved creative, ratings would improve. If Raw went back to 2 hours and that resulted in Raw averaging 4.0 to 5.0 ratings every week, you think WWE's broadcast fees wouldn't improve drastically enough to justify getting rid of the 3rd hour of Raw?
