ACTUALLY IT IS VERY GOOD THAT THE SHOW IS BAD AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T REALIZE WHY THAT'S GOOD IS AN IDIOT. JUST ENJOY THE BAD SHOW INSTEAD OF THINKING.
Monday’s WWE Raw averaged 2.70 million viewers, down from 2.819 from last week.

Hour one: 2.810 million viewers.
Hour two: 2.717 million viewers.
Hour three: 2.559 million viewers.

It's almost like having Batista, Ronda, Brock and Seth Rollins, e.g. all of the important people, in the last hour makes people keep watching your agonizingly long show. They should maybe keep doing that thing where they have stars and them book them on the show.

WWE's storytelling may be way boring, terrible, or both, but honestly the atrocious production of the television is the primary reason I just stopped watching and it only seems to be getting worse.

didn't Ronda brag about beating him or a former partner up in a domestic dispute? they both suck.

A former partner who was posting nudes online or was going to? The guy was a piece of poo poo but if a man had kicked the crap out of a woman the way she beat him up it would of been a huge deal. She got a big pass on domestic violence.

Read up on it a bit more and holy poo poo. She beat the hell out of the guy, and going into fine detail in her book and even saying something along the lines of "I shouldn't hurt my hands before a fight" is so incredibly stupid.

Also incredibly stupid- her inability to get ring gear that she can move in. She's been in the WWE for a drat year, get some trunks that don't crawl everywhere!

Everything about her is godawful. Can't wait for her to gently caress off into obscurity.

Maybe they should have a time machine where they go back in time and bring back Stone Cold, Rock, HHH, Undertaker, Angle, Edge, etc

Half of these people have wrestled for WWE within the last year. Edge has shown up in a non-wrestling role within the last year and the only reason he doesn't wrestle is because he could literally die if he did. Note that the same applies to Kurt Angle, and this did not stop him.

The only time I can remember a team in WWE bring this smart was the Nation during the Ahmed feud. I swear I remember a Nation member hitting Farooq on purpose at his request, thereby instantly getting Ahmed DQed and laughing about it, as WWE refs must follow the rule book to the letter.

Xavier and Big E hit Kofi in the first two parts of the gauntlet to get Kofi's opponents disqualified. Vince comes out and says "now it is a non-DQ match." Big E and Xavier then just come into the ring and triple team the next opponent. Vince then says "New Day are barred from ringside." They don't leave because it's a no DQ match and keep interfering.

One time NXT opened the show with a Sami Zayn vs. Samoa Joe match that took up the whole hour.
What was cool about that was on commentary that kept promising an American Alpha match later in the night. The match just kept going and eventually Mauro had to apologize and say the American Alpha match will have to be next week instead.

think that was one of dolphs brothers.

About two years ago I went to a concert in Cleveland. The hotel we stayed at was incredibly shady, and I thought for sure something bad was going to happen to us. I got online to check out if there was anything noteworthy that happened there. Sure enough, first article that pops up talks about a drug deal gone wrong, and a man being murdered in the hallway.

It was totally the place where Dolph's brothet killed somebody. Just a fun little coincidence.

So...

If Kofi gets the match anyway, that match ending as it did is pointless. If he doesn't, it's terrible booking. Either way it's redundant.

WWE is so freaking dumb for setting up this feud for so long and having it end just a couple weeks before WrestleMania with kofi not going. now daniel bryan needs a new feud quick and it's not going to be able to become very interesting on such short notice. If you recall, the announcer slipped up and said "big e" during the gauntlet match, instead of kofi kingston. that's a really difficult mistake to make unless big E is somehow meant to be more heavily involved than he is right now. my Guess? he gets the title shot and wins it for his brother kofi. that would Be decent. hopefully there is a moment where big E talks emotionally in the middle of the wrestling match, because that's usually how to make a match five stars In quality.
