I put up with Vince wrestling all the time and even winning the Rumble, so I think I can put up with Steph being such a badass, though it's against a Bella.. imagine if it were her and AJ. But whatever, it's stupid fun like wrestling should be.

NOW CESARO..

This is a good post with which I concur on all counts.

gently caress how WWE is burying Cesaro.

Hey if you guys want to see PPVs for a low price I have a solution! Invite a bunch of friends over and split the cost!

If they just kept the Network shilling to the announcement of "Hey we are going to other countries now" and just using those commercials this Raw would have been a lot more bearable. This Raw didn't make me want to see the WWE to burn in flames and hope the network subs plummet because again I was listening to Lovage through most of it. I kind of want to get a job in the WWE creative now just to experience it... and also maybe put nitric acid in Dunn's coffee.

Also have Cesaro Ziggler go on a while, don't even care if Ziggler wins because he has to look strong in his feud with the Miz.

Nah, pretty much just the nonstop shilling for a product half the viewers at best care a little about, weird booking of overlong or undertimed matches (nothing in-between), and having matches either end or completely play out during commercial breaks

What's annoying is that they bring up stuff like the Cosmic Key or the New Nation then they just drop it for a week.

At least the announcers mentioned the key thing in passing, but you'd think the return of the Dusts would be a big part of whatever their goofy storyline is.

They could have padded out the 3 hour show with this stuff but no, we had to get whatever that crap was.

If Lesnar/Cena II is half as good as Lesnar/Cena I, it is going to OWN

Also the Summerslam card as a whole looks awesome and is being built really well even if the Raws have been iffy in a vacuum.

the first world was a mistake

I only watched the last half hour or so because Beat the Clock is an instant killjoy gimmick to me.

Brie has to be on the shortlist for one of the worst promos I ever watched. She makes pretty much anyone else sound like '80s Jake Roberts by comparison.

Technically it's Lesnar/Cena III....they feuded briefly after WM19. Had a PPV match at Backlash that year.

I still think Brie is doing comparatively fine. It's Nikki who I'd call atrociously bad.

It's supposed to look like a smashed cinnamon roll
“It means he is a closet homosexual. You see Brock Lesnar knows that entering into a homosexual relationship may hurt his career. In order to satisfy his lust for penis he had a large vieny one permanently inked between his cleavage."
