Any WWE fans in the audience? (Part 1)

Haha 0 for 2 so far…

I liked the opening match. Breezango clicks together, like Team Hell No, but not really.

Hey-ey we got some Bayyyy Leyyyyy!

They just started a really interesting storyline with New Day vs Wyatts, and now it’s DOA? Damn, that feud should continue.

Zayn and KO just stole the show, the arena, and the whole damn parking lot!!!

Well that was a clusterfuck of a finish that failed. I wonder who messed up.

Ambrosewinslol

Going into the main event, I figured I was happy with the undercard and wasn’t expecting a lot out of the Shield match. I was wrong. Those guys did a great job and had me engrossed in the match. And the right guy won.

Roman got pinned, clean, in the middle of the ring, by a main event face more over than he is.

I’m guessing his run as ostensible top megaface is now officially over.

So how was the show overall?

I missed it because Ms. Cups and I moved from an hour outside of Orlando to basically shaking Shamu’s fin in our new apartment across the street from Seaworld.

As with most moves, something had to wrong, and that thing was U-Verse screwing us over and leaving us high and dry until tomorrow.

So needless to say we missed the PPV and we’ll miss RAW. We’ll watch it tomorrow I’m sure, but what’s everyone’s rating on it?

Actually, it was a good show, better than WM.

Sami Zayn vs KO was the match of the year. BG was worth it just for that alone.
Dean vs Seth vs Roman was top notch as well. It had plenty of “Let’s gang up on the other guy” moments, followed by instant betrayal.
Wyatts vs ND was also good and deserves a few more matches, but that won’t happen because of the brand split.
Sasha & Bailey vs Charlotte and Dana had some NXT level brutality and a lot of fun.
Rusev vs Ryder was what you’d expect, nothing new, but introduced Mojo Rawley to the main roster. For some reason, he and Rusev didn’t slug it out.
Becky Lynch vs Natalya was kind of eh. It had the disadvantage of following Zayn vs Owens, so the crowd was too tired to get into it. Same for Young vs Miz, but that feud will continue and you’ll get to see Backlund go all senior rage again.

First, let me say I am not high right now.

But on reading that, I had this mental image of Strowman standing behind New Day really getting into the NEW DAY ROCKS chants, smiling, clapping and chanting along. :cool:

Since no one has mentioned it, Bayley’s debut at a PPV was pure magic.

I am.

I can see that happening, and that is stuff of nightmares. Strowman already talks like the Abominable Snowman who thinks Daffy Duck is a bunny rabbit and calls him George.

Congratulations, Mr. Polinsky, aka Corey Graves, for making it to the big table. You deserve it.

The downside being that Mauro’s going to get shouted down by JBL’s inane banter.

Yes, was definitely wanting to see Graves on Smackdown with Mauro. :frowning:

So, they’re calling Raw’s title the WWE Universal Championship? sigh

Just bring back the World Heavyweight Title and the Big Gold Belt!

Yeah, because that’s bigger than just the world. :rolleyes:

You deserve it, Sasha. That emotion is just so real.

Finn Balor just had a Top 5 Raw debut of all time.

This was the first Raw I’ve watched in a while and I was impressed. Very little McMahon presence and loads of good wrestling. Good for Sasha and Finn. I hope their pushes continue. Good chemistry between Owens and Rusev. I’d be interested in seeing them tag for a while.

I don’t like RAW’s new logo. It looks like somebody ran out of Ws and put in an upside-down M. Otherwise, good show. I liked the little extra touches, like the pre-match interview with Brawn Lothbrok’s sacrificial lamb.

That was a cool moment when Sasha waved goodbye to Dana with an eat shit grin. “Girl, bye!”

Roman picked a good time to take Adderall. It would eventually shoot Finn to the moon. I hated to see Finn leave NXT, but he looks like he belongs in the mothershiiiip.

Good start for RAW. They had wrestlers wrestling, what a novel approach! What on earth was the point of that big doofus Strawman clobbering that poor kid who wants to be a wrestler? Hard to believe but he makes The Big Slow look good for a giant. Roman Reigns can finish his heel turn now, before he fades away completely. Other than the possibility he’ll put Rollins away I don’t see Finn around a year from now. Sasha Banks keeps improving as a performer, won’t be long before Charlotte is the two time Women’s Champion. Who had 2 minutes in the pool for how long before they make a new belt? Let’s see if they can make it to next week before wrestlers cross over the two shows. The pressure’s on Shane now, if he doesn’t make the arena explode tonight it’s all been another enormous waste of time.
