I have to agree about the quality of the weekly shows, RAW had been soulless and SmackDown just "funny", but for me NXT has doing well, except for Miss Flair as the NXT Champion, the show has been pretty solid, and new additions like Dexter Lumis and the upcoming Scarlet+Kross seems right.
Speaking in quality I can say for NJPW, the lastest WK was incredible, I cheered too much for Naito.
Yes, a good example was the use of pre-taped matches like "Ultimate Deletion" and the recent "Boneyard Match", if not overused will be a good solution for some matches. It would be give us nice Dream Matches like Undertaker Vs Stinger, even Foley posted on Twitter he could wrestle on this type of match.
