why tho.


she just lost. let her go away for a bit.

They wouldn’t. Would they?

It's all they know at this point, honestly.

Wait till Lesnar makes his "return" and immediately gets a title shot without having to do shit else.

OOOOh. Then he will have another suplex match and win. Hold the title for a while, then drop it to whoever seems "hot" at that time. That will happen at Mania next year.

Charlotte getting that belt.

Then we get treated to yet another snorefest match where he does a max of 2 different moves over and over and over. :nono:

Says a lot when Hogan had more offence and variety in his matches than Lesnar as of the last lot of years. Starting to think Khali would as well..

Bayley and Sasha will also appear tonight

They're outta their damn minds if Vince/Paul is going give Charlotte the belt after that NXT run.

Big Match Charlotte opening RAW

Since when did Charlotte vs. Asuka hit "greatest rivalry" status?

WWE's booking of the two for feuds hasn't been close to that level.

The Blueprint?

Matt Morgan looks great.

Then again, it shows how much I've been keeping track of WWE lately.

Tag team sense is tingling.

That opening segment was pretty terrible.

TEDDY LONG WHERE U AT

Jay "Christian" Reso back again.

Wonder if "Knight Fight" got cancelled and he's strapped for cash.

Never understood why WWE doesn't just have each member of a team in the ring during mutli-team matches.

NXT did a Triple Threat tag match last week and it ended up being both good and didn't have the issue of why you'd ever tag someone who wasn't your partner to get out.

hell yeah two charlotte matches tonight

WWE has put more effort in pushing Charlotte vs Asuka than Nia Jax vs Asuka, the Backlash match.

Women's tag match was pretty good.

Made the IIconics look like wimps in the end though especially considering they are the #1 contender for the tag belts this Sunday and have zero momentum going in.

On one hand, maybe its for the best considering Nia's recent track record of hurting people in the ring.

On the other hand, when WWE gets obsessed with someone, they don't give up even if it means wrecking other people's pushes or that person becoming despised by their fans. Becky not being around anymore just makes it worse since now WWE is leaning even harder on Charlotte being the only women's star who actually matters in the company.

Was a very short match but Murphy/Theory vs. Black/Carrillo was pretty good for the time it got.

For a moment, thought Christian got some shitty looking AR graphics for his entrance but turned out it was just props for his Peep Show segment.

Christian was forced into retirement five years ago and looks exactly the same.....Edge looks like he’s aged 20 years in the face.

Edge giving the same facial reaction I had after watching that disaster of a cinematic match the Backlot Brawl was last night on NXT's TakeOver show.

I wonder if they'll give Lashley the belt w/ everything going on...could do Lashley/Lesnar at SummerSlam then

Not sure flipping cups counts as a decathlon event.

Ivar dancing to Fandango's theme already the best thing about this segment and these sports matches.

:lol: at the decathlon ending in a tie.

Somehow that was both the best and dumbest thing the Street Profits and Viking Raiders have done during this sports feud.

weird pepto ad during commercial break of raw

Triple Treat match was pretty good but what's with WWE and weak or anti-climatic endings to matches these days.

:lol: at Kurt Angle reading directly from cue cards for his "Greatest Match Ever" promo.

I have gotten bored and drifted off to other things so many times tonight

wwe's scripted crowd makes it harder to watch than ever somehow

Vikings Raiders vs. Lashley & MVP was pretty good.

Having both of the tag title challengers from RAW lose tonight was dumb though especially since both losses were just to continue unrelated storylines.

Nia in a title match Sunday but hasn't appeared on tv tonight so far...if she doesn't show up she must have the nuclear heatz backstage

WWE still running with the "Greatest Wrestling Match Ever" tag line for Edge vs. Orton is pretty funny considering reports about it being taped last night and WWE going to heavily edit it so it ends up being "great."

Shows the low confidence WWE has in Edge and Orton if they didn't trust them do it as a live match. Also should have never put themselves in that corner to being with.

Wouldn't be surprised if she interferes at the end for the DQ or some other lame ending result since I doubt WWE is going to make Charlotte eat a clean loss or look even remotely weak at all.
