Instead of the Raw roster getting revenge, Braun should just show up and beat up everyone on Smackdown, then beat up everyone on 205 Live, then everyone on Raw.

i liked the idea someone floated of the garbage truck pulling up to smackdown, braun breaking out of it and then murdering everyone

It shows restraint that even with a major injury and two more minor injuries, the Demon is still undefeated after over a year on the main roster. No other character made it past 6 months (Nia 6, Joe 5)

Those aren't particularly funny numbers...

I'm keen on the idea that random members of SD are shown to be laid out and people don't know who's doing it. You have like New Day and Rusev walking around the back and right before the lights go out you see Braun's massive arms grab someone and pull them in systematically taking them all out like the loving Predator. Then you just have Kevin and Sami in a skybox eating popcorn and laughing just to have Braun appear and toss them off like lawn darts.

Edit: Even better you have Braun and Auska invade everything happening backstage, have Braun rampage through an episode of UUDD and the Madden Challenge unexpectedly, Auska breaking into an episode of Total Divas and making all the SD members submit before kicking them in the face, ultimately having an hour long fight with Shinsuke in the middle of the ring, Braun popping up from the backseats of the SD member's cars kicking their rear end and making them crash during Ride Along.

Yea, it's like I get it WWE, you gotta' build for Survivor Series, but that whole backstage assault thing left a bad taste in my mouth. For me at least, it made everyone on SD look like assholes, made Shane look like an even bigger rear end in a top hat, and just made everyone on RAW look like a joke. I have no issue with say, some heels showing up on their own without Shane to start some poo poo, but having everyone in on it just looks off.

Having Becky and the My Little Pony Freebirds acting like a hooting bloodthirsty horde was kinda off brand. Coulda been the Usos there? Corbin kinda shouldn't have been in the schmuck patrol, neither.

I assume Angle will be on Team Raw and Shane will be on Team SmackDown. Then Owens and Zayn will kill Shane and he will have to be replaced by a different SmackDown authority figure:

interim commissioner Hulk Hogan.

Brock! Oh, man, I'm sorry about your...

...tooth?


Outside of Becky, I was fine with the whole solidarity gang war thing. It's all about value. Sure, Ziggler and Roode both hate each other, but they know that if Smackdown looks like chumps compared to Raw, then they just look like two jerks slumming it on the B-show no matter who wins their feud. Most of the locker room would love to see Jinder get his comeuppance, but not against Brock. If Brock squashes Jinder, then what the hell is everyone on their show fighting for?

If anything, the Smackdown locker room should band together to make sure the Singh Brothers are a non-factor in Jinder vs. AJ, just so they have a fighting chance at not looking like complete clowns.

I'm happy with the invasion. It gives the roster of RAW a real reason to team up together despite their alignments other than just, "welp, its that time of year again".

Its also the kind of thing Shane would do, even if he is a babyface currently. Hell, he has done it in the past. Shane was a face when he "bought" WCW from under Vince's nose and kicked off The INvasion.

They killed all of Finn's momentum by jobbing him all the way out to Kane (but gotta keep that up-and-coming looking strong, amirite)
I don't see the point in doing almost the same Asuka-Emma match as at TLC with the same result, Asuka is now just another wrestler since she's only on Emma's level
Some of the Smackdown invaders don't make any sense. Ziggler has been making enemies left and right and now he's just one of the SD guys? AJ teamed with Seth and Dean earlier in the night and now he hates them? What have the New Day got against Raw considering they had their biggest success there?

And the more I look at this card, the more I realize there are a LOT of heel vs heel matches. This card is going to suck unless there are a lot of title changes b/w now and then.

You have Miz vs Corbin, Lesnar vs Mahal (although Lesnar is probably a tweener here), Alexa vs Natalya.

Lesnar will get cheered to the rafters against Jinder loving Mahal.

It just doesn't make sense, because the shows aren't in direct competition with each other and they have mixed up the roster several times already. Why would happy go lucky faces, the new day all of the sudden assault other faces unprovoked?

But regardless, it was a cool visual. Even if there's no real internal logic to it.

It makes no sense they'd be on Team SD when its captained by Shane despite the fact it would be stupid to not book Sami and Kevin on the show when they're the hottest angle on the brand.

Roode, Nakamura, Styles, Owens, Zayn is the actual lineup they should use, so of course we're getting Shane and Randy Orton.

The Raw team is going to be garbage because every other actual star on Raw is in a different match already or is violently sick.

Both teams are going to have a ton of midcarders anyway at this point with how the rest of the card's looking. Like by default there will be no champs there
