It has been a week since I posted some thoughts here. Sorry. Smackdown! and Heat just thoroughly underwhelmed me, and it killed my enthusiasm.

Vince latest idea is that repeating the plot of the past, Austin vs. McMahon, will bring the viewers back. To be fair, it hasn't come to that yet, but we are instead getting this dumb "Kiss My @ss" club bit.

It just struck me today too: with Austin now face again, Triple H will have to be a heel. Plans to make him a face are gone... as soon as he attacks Austin, he'll be boo'd into the next century.
