From the op it seems like i should check out the tournament matches at least.

it was mostly tournament matches. I think all of them but Kalisto vs Del Rio went to commercial at least once

Is that everything you have?

Cesaro's just going to keep showing up the entire roster until he's juggling cruiserweights in the ring while deadlifting the Big Show with his tongue, resulting in a two week US Champ run.

Charlotte brought up the real life death of her brother Reid. Paige promptly used it for heat, triggering a pull apart brawl.

with the dumpster fire texans in a surprisingly close game with the now 8-1 bengals, my guess is they rearranged things at the last minute or something

It was weird at first since Charlotte apparently inherited crying or nearly-crying at the drop of a hat from her dad, but then Charlotte and Paige got into increasingly uncomfortable "gently caress you" "no gently caress YOU" territory while Michael Cole stammered "uh, do you want to sign this contract" and they just kept going at each other like he wasn't there. I ended up enjoying it by the end, but I feel like things that are heated and also kind of awkward and uncomfortable when used in moderation add a touch of reality that WWE lacks a lot of the time.

it took a while to get there but the main event segment was good and desperately needed given how lovely their feud has been to this point. I still don't think it's a good feud but it has heat now I guess!

I liked the concept more than the execution, but they did a pretty good job with it considering Charlotte is usually a poor promo. I would make a crack that Charlotte is no Naitch, but Paige is a very far cry from her mother, so that's a moot point.

It was clearly given the spot it had to get people talking about it (Creative has a sub-group called "Controversy" for fucks sake), so they've definitely got people talking about it.

Cesaro was awesome, I'm pretty sure he was calling the match too.

Everytime he wrestles he seems to come out with "omg" moments from the cartwheel off the top turnbuckle ALONG THE loving ROPE to that really cool spinning springboard uppercut.

Roman is getting better but he's nowhere near Cesaros level its kinda frustrating because I'd rather see Cesaro vs Ambrose/KO than Reigns vs Ambrose/KO

Also Roman selling the wrong arm was getting loving annoying and drew me out of a decent and entertaining match.

Also the Paige / Charlotte promo was ok I actually think Paige improvised because she seemed to amp it up after I heard a very loud and audible "BOOOOORRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGGGG" chant from a member of the crowd.

And is it bad that I was totally thinking what Paige said about Charlotte's bro, quite shocked when she said it to be honest.

All in all Raw was entertaining, I skipped the Uso/Ryback vs New day match though, as entertaining as New day are I find Uso's and Ryback boring as gently caress

You could say the following about a lot of people in WWE, but it really just blows my mind that Cesaro's not in a better spot. I truly have no idea how Vince and co can stand to ignore how good he is and how much fans want to get behind him. He has so much strength, physical charisma, and wrestling skill. He was even getting over huge with the crowd back when he was often doing the swing, culminating in that awesome WM30 moment where he slammed Big Show.

But no, he talks funny, gotta push him way down the card!

What the hell. Wrestling is the weirdest business on the planet.

I posted about this on the Vue forums recently. You have to add Raw every week because it's seen as a different event each week. It makes no sense because I can favorite "NFL Football" once and it records literally every game in my market each week. But, that's the trick.

Lana said something about Paige, idk what because Lana deleted it. Paige called her out saying she's a liar and using some hashtag with TMZ in it, then called her out for deleting the tweet. Lana said she's making a longer post and that Paige was a bully to her in NXT. Paige then said she was barely in NXT long enough for Paige to even notice her. Lana said Paige was always disrespectful to everyone and Paige followed up with "stop trying to get a storyline." Lana than wimped out and said Paige was a great wrestler but Charlotte is going to beat her at Survivor Series and was done talking. Paige said see ya with the hand wave emoji. Rob Naylor is now backing up Paige and laughing at Lana.
