Just realized the top heels on RAW are Samoa Joe, Bray Wyatt and Miz...love Miz but he'll lose every feud...like Wyatt but he'll lose every feud...Samoa Joe kind of dull so far.

The point of a top heel is to lose every feud and put the babyface over.

Edge and Christian had the right idea. To capitalize on the name, they need to have Jerry Lawler throw a fireball at the ghost of Andy Kaufman, which would still be wearing a neckbrace.

That'll get the name over.

I kinda like the idea that, in kayfabe, Lesnar can only be defeated by using the Spear of Destiny.

Oh? There's a Takeover this weekend? Cool, I guess.

Day before is the debut of WWE's UK show so that should be interesting because its supposed to set up the UK title match at Takeover.

A lot of the microphones and sound quality sounded rough to me tonight.

They probably hired native Jersey folks to set everything up, so that would explain the quality.

Because RAW's Creative is usually terrible in general. They probably saw Balor getting the upper hand in a brawl being worth the same as a victory by Reigns in a match when those are not actually equal.

Had Balor won, they could have at least played it up as Reigns being injured and create some interest for a rematch with both guys healthy at a later date.
