Alexa Bliss came out and stood on it and sarcastically thanked Mickie James, Sasha Banks, and Nia Jax. She pretended to forget about Bayley but then thanked her.

TJP talks about how Neville couldn't handle Aries last night and Aries says he respects TJP but he can not talk down to the king of cruiserweights like that. They both have a problem with Aries if he keeps claiming he's the true number 1 contender. TJP and Aries have a match tonight. Rollins came out to talk about his victory over Samoa Joe. He says he's done with Joe and HHH and now he wants Brock Lesnar and the Universal Title. Finn comes out and talks about how he was never beaten for the title and if anyone is next in line it is him. Ambrose comes out and tlaks about how Brock barely wrestles and that Dean is the IC champ and he'll fight anyone any time. He says his title is the main title now. Miz comes out and talks about how Dean's a liar and has barely defended that title, Finn is too frail and Seth's knee is still busted up.

Sheamus and Cesaro came out to talk about why they attacked the Hardyz. Sheamus says he's never been a good guy and both him and the crowd hate each other and we all knew this. He said the only person that believed in him was Cesaro and look at him now. He had the Cesaro section and all that stuff but throwbacks like the Hardyz came and everyone forgot about him. The crowd whated Cesaro. Hardyz came out and wanted to fight him but Cesaro & Sheamus ran off. Miz and Marse are interviewed backstage but it is interrupted by Dean Ambroe taking over as the interviewer. Miz and Maryse walk off. Apollo Crews defeated Health Slater.

This is what Brock as an off-camera Champion should have been two years ago: someone who casts a shadow over the Main Eventers and whom they are ALL lobbying and competing for the opportunity to fight. They made Brock an untouchable final boss, but by having the Full Time Guys talking about how much they want to fight him and taking on difficult challenges in order to prove they're worthy of the chance, THEY are focus of the story and we can root for them and get behind them in their quest, while Brock is not forgotten and therefore the title is not degraded as a prize by its absence. Everything has focus, because everything is about getting that title and the one-of-a-kind status that comes from being able to say you're the one who did the impossible and beat The Beast. What sucks is that Dean was clearly not permitted to be in that mix. He should have said how he also wanted to fight Brock and prove he is the superior champion, and all three guys should have called out Miz for avoiding that subject. The topic change to the IC title was really abrupt in that segment and made it clear we were changing gears from "The Most Important Thing," to "A Less Important Thing," despite the efforts to reassure us that everyone did in fact want the IC belt. The message of the ending of that Main Event could not be clearer: Miz and Dean's feud over the IC Belt is its own thing, and they are not invited to the Quest To Fight Brock that Seth and Finn are forwarding with the Joe/Wyatt feuds.

Jerusalem posted:gently caress that was a pretty good Raw, I loved that main event. Same. They would have an opportunity to tell a really good story with it if they played Lesnar/Balor out until Wrestlemania 34 (but they won't bc Reigns). Have Lesnar destroy Balor at Summerslam, and then do a classic redemption run with Balor winning the Rumble, winning at Mania, etc. to get his title back. Alternatively, just put Braun over Lesnar immediately and have him hold the belt for eternity.

So there's a tournament for the Universal Title next week right? Brock hasn't defended in 30 days. Actually with Ambrose and Brock as champs and Neville being more for 205 live than RAW, the women's title is the only singles belt that actually ever gets defended. Also I liked the tease at Seth and Ambrose getting new feuds but WWE was like "nope, 3-6 months minimum per feud." Ah well, Seth vs Joe 2 will be awesome if the knee thing is over with.

The rule is that the champion must be able to defend within 30 days. Brock is able, he just hasn't been booked in a defense. Same with Dean. And also the rule doesn't exist.

Someone with Daniel Bryan's book confirm if that rule is real. It solved the 1 pin breakup per tag match dilemma so it can solve anything.
