"WWE is proud to celebrate this historic milestone with our partners at USA Network," WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon said. “Our new three-hour Raw represents the next generation in interactive television where our fans won’t just watch the show, they will help create it.”

Starting with the historic 1,000th episode of Raw on July 23, The WWE Universe will have new ways to get involved in the show through WWE.com and social media by deciding matches, stipulations, Superstar development and more.

"The WWE Universe is one of the most socially active and passionate fan bases in all of television," Chris McCumber and Jeff Wachtel, co-presidents USA Network, said. "The powerful three-hour block of live TV truly makes USA the year-round destination for young male viewers on Monday nights."

But the question is , will they manage to entertain the people for full 3 hrs.
Now a days Wwe is using RAW & Smackdown as ground for building up feuds for matches at Ppv.
Yesterday's RAW on Ten sports was boring. :(
I think the only reason they are doing this , may be they are now having so many superstars.
And mostly every superstar wants to be part of RAW rather than Smackdown.
:huh
