Hmm, so they're replacing the Cena US Champ shirt and replacing it with one that explicitly states only 15 world titles? Definitely doesn't seem like he's winning at Summerslam.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I'm suddenly reminded of the Reigns "I Can, I Will" shirt that he started wearing right before Wrestlemania. Then he lost and never wore that shirt again.

This was one of the best parts of Reigns not winning at Mania. The other part was that the entire Anoai family doesn't know wrestling is predetermined apparently.

Wrestling ring.

Some ... major promotion's wrestling ring. No one in your corner, but you look anyway.

I appreciated this reference. Also RAW was pretty decent, Bryan was fun, New Day were great, Cesarowns and Rusev continues to make gold out of a bad feud. Kinda funny that Ssummer was the one they wanted to make a big star a couple years back and failed and now are making Summer look great while failing at trying to push Lana.

You can still buy these shirts, weirdly enough. Maybe Roman merchandise is big with the irony crowd.

You can also buy a hat clip where Roman is a robot? Did I miss a run where they tried to pass him off as a cyborg?

Based on crowd reaction live, the biggest heel in the WWE is the graphic that told the crowd that Lesnar and Taker would be at Raw NEXT WEEK and also gently caress you for buying tickets to the wrong show.

WWE needs to stop pushing cool events in other cities in the live promos.

For real. They need to put him back on the main burner soon. Let's start that build for Rusev's WWE title shot. Just squashes over Ryder, Truth, etc. All the while he celebrate with new Lana and not the cold fish classic lana. Then he beat Cena and go home to Bulgaria.

Remember how the feud between Bray and Taker was poo poo because Taker never showed up? The Rusev-Dolph feud is improved so much by the lack of Dolph. I used to love him so much and now I dread him being on my TV.

So how does the WWE justify ratings going up without Cena being in it last night?

(alternatively, maybe cena needs that shortened intro and needs to only do promos on the titantron)

Also I like this fact: RAW was #2 for the night on cable behind Love & Hip-Hop in the 18-49 demographic and #2 for the night behind Major Crimes in viewership.
