Another one of these examples where fans want the talent to be great, but the talent isnt great.
Let me dust off my patented "Late To The Party" RAW examination.

Firstly, Paige. The thing is, she isn't *that* poor of a promo. She has done better. Only problem I saw here was the lack of vitriol... she was essentially cutting a heel promo with a face delivery. It wasn't unlike AJ when she went full out Shawn Michaels (and Tamina was her Diesel) when that run started, she didn't seem like she believed her words. In a few weeks, she oozed about as much douchebag as her husband could. Yes, she should have knocked that promo out of the park, but let's not pretend she's horrible.

MEANWHILE, Big Show's promo is how she should have handled that. Top Man jokes and seesawing relevance aside, he came off like he really *believed* what he said about Brock.

New Day featuring Xavier Woods' trombone: I love the snowballing of the whole gimmick. Big E has refined his Southern Baptist Preacher voice to where it is over the top in a good way as opposed to sounding forced, Kofi making the clap-skip a constant thing, and then we have Consequences Creed himself doing a lot of emoting, talking crowd audible smack (which I am a fan of), and taking a seemingly random skill of playing a goddamn trombone into an entertaining embellishment. Especially the corner stomps/irish whip bit that seems to be now a regular thing.

One question: does Kane now work for The Law Offices of Park, Park, & Park? Maybe they'll finally find Abyss chilling with Malibu Kane.

Brown Strawman looks like what would happen if Earthquake were in more of a bodybuilding mold and wore WWI biplane attire to the ring.

Hey! Lillian put a "p" at the end of " CHAMPIONCHIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAA..... puh" tonight for the Cena/Rollins match.

I wonders omething about Rollins' legit. Between busting Cena's nose and giving Sting an ouchie, he seems like he gets a little hesitant at times with some of his moves and mannerisms. Almost like he's overcompensating making way less fluid movements than he is capable of. Like he is constantly second guessing himself.
