I remember when I was doing a watch-through of 2002 right after the roster split, same time period Cool King was doing except I didn't do posts about it.
And maaaaaaaaaaaan did Raw ever suck. The amazing thing though is I remember loving it at the time. Just goes to show that being 13 made me more likely to simply accept what I get and not think too hard about it.
2002 SmackDown definitely held up though. Usually one or two great matches a week and some fun characters. Only thing that really grinds my gears about those shows is the grating piped in cheers and boos that they were still using right up until SmackDown went live.
