At first, I was pissy they were feeding Elias to Strowman after he was kind of legitimized by his match with Roman last week.

Then I remembered that Strowman is 2017's Stone Cold Steve Austin and this is no different than Austin stunning the shit out of the entire roster for two hours straight, and that's cool as hell.

Really?

Nia Jax and Enzo?

What the fuck was that?

Nia's going to have Enzo's lovechild and it's going be a goddamn jar of marinara, isn't it?

Enzo looked bewildered just then.

Isn't Nia like a 100 pounds over the weight limit?

Lucky for him, she's not like most girls.

And he's prob'ly gonna find out. And like it. And it's going to turn into Stevie Richards/Jazz 2.0. Or Stevie Richards/Victoria, and she'll be more effective than BIG (C)ASS as a bodyguard.

Targeting the furry demo.

Yes I do have that shirt I don't give a fuck what anybody says

They should have a Furry stable on 205Live

The return of Adam Rose and the Rosebuds, all of whom are treated as active competitors on the 205 Live roster, including The Bunny.

The way she mentioned having a shirt somehow reminded me of R-Truth's rant at the merchandise stand back when the truth set him free: "... ZACK RYDER GOT A T-SHIRT?!?"

And that shirt is missing a captain's hat.

Watched/fast forwarded through the show....

Jason Jordan/Roman Reigns and Paige/Sasha Banks were both very enjoyable..... The Bar/Rollins Ambrose was probably also enjoyable but I fast forwarded through it all because I got tired.

Woken Matt Hardy stuff seemed really dumb and stupid and did not come off well at all...... but people seemed to love it, so I guess maybe it did? I don't even know anymore.....

Matt Hardy was freaking hilarious. I don't know if he goes cross eyed for the gimmick or what it is but he legitimately looks bonkers when he does this shtick.

Well that was some weird whacky shit. But it was different. And it wasn't some hokey, overly scripted nonsense. I'm in. I'll be keeping up on YouTube to see where this woken Matt Hardy nonsense goes to. Why the fuck not, right?

The gimmick worked amazingly in TNA as well....except for the Final Deletion match between he and Jeff at "The Hardy Compound". That was horrible...but it broke Jeff.

Hopefully they break Jeff as well.

I didn't see the survivor series match but saw she lasted 11 minutes. It would have been cool if she was eliminated in under 10 seconds and still went on bragging about leading the girls to victory.

Also, we've actually got something good coming from how horrible they've handled Bray since his debut. If he wasn't a joke already, this would be a terrible idea. Since he is, this works out perfectly.

• Roman Reigns is beginning to confuse me.

Why should I like him? Why should I be cheering him and wanting him to win matches?

The guy comes across as an arrogant dick. How is that suppose to make me like him? If anything, it's making me dislike him more.

The opening segment, the match and what happened after it actually made me like Jason Jordan more.

• Booker T's commentary is still really bad. He spent around ten minutes talking shit about Jordan then he quickly changed and praised the guy and spoke about how good he is for five minutes, then he went back to basically talking about how much he sucks.

• What went on with Enzo & Co. backstage? The Raw I watched suddenly cut out as Enzo said "Do you two realise that last week, you let little Richie Swanny beat you in the Fatal Four Way? Listen, you two and you two" then it just cut to black and I was then watching Cedric Alexander in the ring.

• I skipped the Cruiserweight match because I don't really care about the division but I was surprised to see that Gulak won.

I like Gulak so I watched his promo and I'm a little bit more interested in the division now. I'll probably watch the division next week if Gulak is involved.

• We need more Alicia Fox.

She's great.

The promo was great and she does crazy really well.

It's just a shame that Raw's Women's Division is pretty much "The Paige Show" now.

• I don't think I'll ever understand the jizzfest that happens for Matt Hardy.

What's so great about it? Because Hardy does a piss-poor English accent whilst accentuating certain words and pronouncing others incorrectly?

It's that suppose to be funny/great?

I don't get it.

I just really hope Vince does what he's good at and takes full control of this and nosedives it into the ground and beyond.

You didn't get the part where Nia appeared outta nowhere and has a crush on Enzo now? Seems weird WWE edited that part out for the UK.

Cool King
12-05-2017, 04:10 PM
But really, it's a shame that it looks like she's been reduced to having a crush on Enzo.

I blame Paige. I seriously do.

With her back, it's like Vince & Co. couldn't have Nia be her usual self because if she was, she would quite obviously destroy Paige and the other two.

So they thought to distance Nia from the Women's Division and have her run around the Cruiserweight Division playing the girlfriend role.

Just like they did with another talented member of the Women's Division.

Alicia Fox.

This week's episode managed to be around 54k higher than last week for viewers but suffered one of the largest hour drops in the 3 Hour Era. Past couple of weeks have started to erode the yearly gains WWE was making during the NFL season.

For some reference, same week last year had almost 200k more viewers.

A wrestling-heavy Raw last night was up very slightly from last week's low mark, doing 2.78 million viewers ...

There was a major drop in every demo throughout the show. The message was pretty clear that a series of long matches, as opposed to long matches with main event talent, are not good for retaining viewers.

The three hours were:

8 p.m. 3.15 million viewers
9 p.m. 2.86 million viewers
10 p.m. 2.43 million viewers

Perhaps. But you'd be amazed how many bi girls on Tinder feel the need to write in their profiles "no, just because I'm bi does not mean I'm looking to have a threesome."

They know how mens' minds operate.
