Was like a 10-15 second segment of last week's clip of him wearing his new clown mask and having a new twisted/creepy into for his Funhouse show assuming they are continuing it.

Bray didn't talk in the segment. Showed a bunch of happy kids then "creepy" shots of sad kids and it said "let me in" on the screen and it showed Wyatt in his clown mask... was like 30 seconds long

Then there was A Moment of Bliss with guest Becky Lynch to set up a six woman tag... Becky Lynch, Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss defeated The IIconics and Lacey Evans when Becky hit a leg drop on Billie Kay. Alexa just stood outside the ring

I think the introduction of that new belt just broke me completely I can't stands no more I'm out

Triple A 05-20-2019 10:27 PM
I like the 24/7 title... at least it's something "different" (even though it's been done before, but still)

Gives the lower card guys something to do / something to fight for

Seems weird to be angry about it... why?

For me, because it's a shitty name and it looks horrible.

Triple A 05-20-2019 10:34 PM
I think the title looks fine... Supposed to be like a clock design and stuff... I like the green strap

Just feels like a lazy band-aid to fix WWE and RAW's woes like with the Wild Card idea.

Also another belt for WWE to quickly lose all interest in and likely benefit nobody in the long run.

Triple A 05-20-2019 10:45 PM
It's not like any of those guys were doing anything else, so at least this is something / at least WWE is trying

DAMN iNATOR 05-20-2019 10:46 PM
DAMN...You know RAW sucks when it hasn't even hit 1 page (@ 100 replies pp) 20 minutes before it's over.

Emperor Smeat 05-20-2019 10:47 PM
:lol: at the last minute No DQ stip being added in for the main event tag match.

slik 05-20-2019 10:48 PM
Did they say on tv why the show looks different/different lighting/graphics for the 3rd hour?

Wonder if they are having "technical issues"

Ring posts are out for some reason... were they "on" earlier in the show?

True. Guess at least for me personally, I have no expectations of this being any good in the long run and just going to feel like a big waste of time.

Truth being the new champ could lead to a Crash Holly-like reign of wackiness but have zero confidence in Creative and/or Vince pulling that off.

Triple A 05-20-2019 10:51 PM
Interesting @ red Raw logo on a black background instead of a white background... Was it white earlier in the show>

slik 05-20-2019 10:52 PM
Darkened Arena look much better than lighting everything to death IMO

Emperor Smeat 05-20-2019 10:56 PM
Nice of Corbin to make a bed of chairs for Rollins mid-match nap.

Emperor Smeat 05-20-2019 11:02 PM
:lol: at RAW ending with Brock just walking around the ring and deciding to not cash-in.

Also :lol: at just giving away the surprise for when Lesnar's cash-in will happen.

slik 05-20-2019 11:03 PM
WWE gave it away when they announced Brock vs Seth in a press release for Super Showdown

slik 05-20-2019 11:03 PM
Another RAW done...I appreciated visual changes in the 3rd hour but show overall 'not clicking' for me...looking forward to seeing what AEW can do Saturday

Vastardikai 05-20-2019 11:14 PM
"24/7 Championship, because "Hardcore" has too many sexual connotations..."

R-Truth gimmick of getting things wrong is funny 2 me

Remembering when he cut a promo on Alexa Bliss a couple of months ago and kept calling her "Alexis Bliss"

Was this before or after Money in the Bank?

If it was before, I'd laugh if they still give him the Rollins match but have him actually cash-in on Kofi to potentially become Brocky 2 Belts.

I just watched the clips from the main page and the segment with R-Truth had me legit LOL when Roode opens the door to reveal that peevish ref waiting in the passenger seat and the look Roode's face when he realized what is happening LOL. Man that was good shit.

This is the ultimate ratings band aid. For a few weeks it forces people to stick around for a potentional cash in. Of course after 3 or 4 Raws people will stop believing it could happen, and they will go right back to losing viewers in the 3rd hour.

According to Fightful, official reason is WWE being desperate to find ways to freshen up and make RAW's 3rd hour more interesting to viewers.

Also confirms Foley implying that the new 24/7 belt would only be showcased on RAW as a 3rd hour exclusive was just a flub or misunderstanding.

You may have noticed that there were heavy changes to the look of WWE Raw in the third hour tonight. The lights were lowered, the Titantron and mats were darkened, and Mick Foley mentioned "Raw's third hour was getting more Raw," or something of that nature, which confusingly led some to believe the 24/7 title would be featured only in the third hour.

However, we're told that the comment was made more to set the stage in differentiating the third hour from the rest of the show, with a unique look. This will also apply to some of the graphics you see moving forward. More "Raw" was the buzzword that was presented to Fightful when we asked around about the changes.

One backstage source said this was another matter of the company throwing something at the wall and hoping it would stick.

Droford 05-21-2019 01:38 AM
I was close on the new title being a wild card title.

he should wait til survivor series champion vs champion match and make it Winner Takes All(and yes I know SS champ vs champ is non title, but..wwe logic)

Damian Rey 2.0 05-21-2019 01:59 AM
God forbid they instead try for logical, thought out and planned long term stories, sensible booking and a focus on trying to highlight and elevate young talent.

Turning the lights down and changing the graphics instead will surely lead to higher viewership.

"unforgiving wood" doesn't have the same ring of brutality. In fact, it sounds like something lewd.

Which reminds me, I'd give Alexa Bliss some "unforgiving wood." :naughty::shifty:

I still wish Rusev had hollowed and decorated the monitor he stole years ago and ran with being the "WWE Television Champion"

they should break into wwe network live feed whenever a match happens

Title match doesn't mean he's cashing in. He's number one contender just by being Brock Lesnar.
