What an absolutely wretched RAW, I pray it dies in the ratings.

There have certainly been worse individual segments, but I have hard time recalling a recent show that had this little positive going for it overall.

As is Alexa Bliss, don't get called up if you were a big item in NXT.

Balor was paid more than your usual NXT top guy, he is still making more on the main roster but the difference might not be night and day.

So I did not see the Raw that is the talk of the thread at present but I did watch Crown Jewel. Last 2018 PPV I had to catch up on.

What was the point of the tournament? I was confused enough by the heel vs. heel final match but then obviously that didn't happen. I just don't understand what they were going for by having Shane wrestle and then win.

Did this lead to something on the regular shows?

Live crowds like seeing something that feels spontaneous, which this did, and they were into Shane. It was reported that it was the start of a Shane heel turn but that was either wrong or the turn is happening very slowly.

Impact even used the same general idea as WWE when pushing Lashley yet it was done so much better:

Nitros from that era are stupid to the point of being exhausting rather than funny.

I enjoyed the numbness I felt when Dolph was revealed as Seth's challenger, it showed me that WWE can't really disappoint me any longer.

If there's one thing the main roster is good at, it's wiping smiles off talent's faces.

Paige's first gimmick in FCW was as a hacker (read: owned a laptop) who doxxed people to Seth Rollins so he would know their in-ring weaknesses.

Sounds kinda awesome actually.

A show so thin, the five point preview is only four points:
