I'll offer a slightly different view, and opinion.
I don't think it was bad, per se. It just felt like any normal broadcast of RAW (minus the many commercials we had been used to seeing on network television). It wasn't "special" by any stretch of the imagination and, yes, on that front, I do agree that the WWE played the Netflix debut to be something it obviously was not.
Did I hate it? Not at all
Did I love it? Not at all
Did I like it? Yes
