Yes. And as I said, it's their own doing. I personally would love to see squash matches on RAW. But seeing Cena/Sheamus vs. Big Show/Punk etc is "the norm" now, you can't suddenly start booking Kofi Kingston vs. Cody Rhodes as your RAW main event.[/QUOTE]

You could main event Raw with something like Kofi vs Cody if the last segment is a non-match segment of some sort. If not, it doesn't always have to be main eventer vs main eventer. The first Sheamus vs Sandow match a few weeks after Raw went to 3 hours permanently was a perfect TV match for me. You had a main eventer and an up and coming midcard guy that you, presumably wanna make a star. Sandow looked amazing, Sheamus came out with the win in a good, long match. Sheamus justified why he's a main event star with the good win and Sandow justified why he's not there yet but he can break out at any moment.

The roster is stacked enough to where you can use Raw main events to position guys on the card. And Raw has been ending with in-ring segments a lot anyway so it's not like you're forced to have the main event match as the closer. You can let a couple up and comers get the spot once in a while.
