For the last couple of years, WWE has been producing crappy storylines due to which many lost interest. In the last 3-4 weeks I have to admit that it's getting better.
The first turning point was making bret hart as the general manager of Raw.
Second, the NXT superstars coming over to Raw and attacking superstars. Now, it has become like a show VS show. Raw VS NXT fighting each and every week.
Thirdy, the new general manager of Raw being anonymous communicating only through E-mails and later those Emails hinting that he is none other than the texas Rattle Snake, Stone Cold Steve Austin by writing his catchy phrases. All of this is quite amusing to watch.
I think Raw is heading in the right direction and I haven't seen such a quality storyline in many years. If Raw continues in the same phase, I think they'll get back all the viewers that lost interest.

yes, its definitely getting better after so long. its been years now that i would watch it every once in a while and just turn the channel or quit watching tv because of how much wwe sucked at the time. now i'm actually starting to pay attention more because of the nxt wrestlers. seeing bret hart come back was great as well as i didn't think i would ever see him on wwe shows ever again. now as tna continues to establish it self as competition against the wwe its only going to make the storylines better for wwe.

been watching raw on and off the past few weeks and i must say i agree with your views vince.
bret hart being raw manager is something expected but kinda short-lived in my opinion. i think they could have extended this one a bit as i really don't mind seeing more of bret hart. i was actually looking forward to seeing him (more of like expecting) to be back in the ring and being more involved, physically that is, in matches especially those involving the hart dynasty. nothing like some biased home cooking to favor your kin in the wwe. hahaha!
the nxt wrestlers ganging up on the raw superstars is kinda expected. it'll take a while for the nexus to make a name for themselves individually so going at it as a group ensures name recall at least to the casual wwe fans. i would really like the nexus seven to continue doing what they're doing. i would even go as far as say that i hope to see them wreck havoc in smackdown and wwe nxt as well. nothing like going the bad boy route to getting their name out there. hopefully, this goes on until survivor series and we see nexus 7 going up against a combined team of raw and smackdown superstars. might be asking too much but certainly somethign viable and something that cna realistically happen based on the storyline that they have right now.
about the new gm... really mixed feelings about this one. all the secrecy is a bit overboard for me. certainly having steve austin as the gm is a great move in my opinion as i love austin's work when he was with wwe. one of the best characters in the industry, a rare breed that has great in-ring skills and certainly great mic skills. would like to see austin whoop some a$$ in raw!!!

The Nxt superstars are on the loose and they are attacking everyone that comes in their way for making a name for themselves and now that they have got re-instated in the WWE, they are free to attack anyone. John Cena lost his title in a pay-per-view thanks to their interference. I think the whole story will come down to a major showdown and animosity between the brands which will create a lot of interest among the viewers
