The biggest issue I have is the fact that Raw already has two jobber squashing monster heels, but of which look way more intimidating than Bo

In fairness, both Braun and Alicia have moved on to actual main roster feuds. It seems like they still want to have a jobber fight every week, so, here comes Bo!

I was smart enough to turn it off after the cruiserweight match at least

I'm glad my good friends Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann did well, I'm just concerned about them putting the only match for the division in the pissbreak spot but maybe it was to prevent the third hour dropoff. Next Monday will be the real test I guess, to see if they get multiple matches or heaven forbid an angle.

Mick Foley is worse than Stephanie, how the gently caress they managed to do that. Raw sucked, but that is not new. Waiting for SD!, please keep the Miz on that show.

Wasn't Shemus the pissbreak match? Thats when I went and smoked a cigg. I think most people change the tv or go do something else when he shows up. I miss Cesaro matches but I just can't do it. Curious.... how are Cesaro's reactions? I'm a bit worried he is killing his heat as that seems to be the usual result of the Shemus effect.

Raw would probably feel about a quarter as long if they ditched those segments, so that's appropriate

Granted the giant segment leading to the big tag match is axed, because Jericho spent time burying Foley.

Don't worry. A few more losses and she'll stop getting a reaction even for the entrance.

Raw was not a very good show but watching the cruiserweights take the crowd from utter apathy to applauding and chanting based purely on their match was heartwarming wrestling poo poo.

I noticed every time they showed his entrance, they skipped over showing him going up to the top rope. Did he actually do his pose where he stands on the ringpost and stretches his leg in his CWC matches and they cut away? Or did he just not do it?

I think they dropped the ball by not having Kane show up on both shows for no reason.

Drafting him was dumb.

I like that Roman really cares about the US title. It actually feels organic in that 1) he sees value in it in a prize in and of itself and 2) he has a personal issue with the champion so any perception that it is a lesser prize compared to his previous world titles doesn't matter. All without needing a pointless hamfisting into patriotism. Well done.

I'd be fine with Roman as US champion if he brought some legitimacy to it like Cena did. You know they're not going to have him losing every other week, plus it keeps him out of the title picture (in theory).

I'm not feeling the tag division on Raw lately, and I think it's because New Day's outgrown the need for them but I know they also probably won't be dropping them since they're just under 3 months short of Demolition's longest ever reign. Also because they need more teams.

Agree with the person who tweeted Foley, even if they're still aiming for a more sports-like presentation for the cruiserweight division, they should have had TJP face off with Kendrick or something after the match.
