The problem with RAW is that so many guys are just "there" and aren't doing anything, and have had the same character without any change in direction for a long time.
Look at Eugene. Aside from the recent head shaving, he's been the same heatless retard for over two years now. He comes out, basically doesn't get any reaction, and loses. But I guess we're supposed to still care about him because he used to team with Jim Duggan, or something.
You can make the same case for pretty much everyone in cabbageboy's "Buried" list on RAW.
