Show starting off with a bummer due to Ziggy replacing Samoa Joe on commentary this week.
Guess Tom Phillips' vacation break is longer than a week since Cole is also on commentary again. |

Lee vs. Drew for the WWE title at Clash of Champs sounds interesting which is why its probably not happening since no way Orton is getting dropped from that title match.
Probably going to end up being a 3-way instead considering WWE's recent habit with non-finishes and shenanigans to end matches. |

Street Profits vs. Cesaro & Nakamura was pretty good overall.
Even though its only been 30 minutes into the show, Ziggy sort of sucks on commentary. |

The Ghost of Charlotte must have suddenly possessed Ricochet since he almost completely missed hitting Cedric with that moonsault to the outside.

Retribution might be the lamest outsider group in the history of wrestling.

Well that was weird. Either the ref botched the finish or the camera guy screwed up getting the tapping out spot.
RAW Women's title match was very good though. |

Zelina Vega being Asuka's next title challenger is a bit interesting.
Andrade can probably kiss goodbye any chance he's ever getting a good push on RAW again since Vega just dumped both him and Garza. RAW is almost half over and its actually been good so far outside of Ziggy's commentary work and Retribution's segment. |

If these RAW Underground segments don't lead to a revival of Brawl for All or the debut of a "shoot fighting" title belt soon then this whole experiment has been a huge waste of time.

Owens needing Retribution shenanigans to beat Black was a bit dumb.
Also guess WWE is right back to have an actual on-screen Authority figure for their main roster shows since Adam Pearce's role grew tonight. Not only was he making matches and barking orders to security like before, now he's threatening punishments to those who don't listen to his orders. Only a matter of time before he gets drunk with power since that almost always happens with WWE authority figures. |

How is Lana still that bad in the ring?
WWE has a Performance Center, a ton of trainers, and a bunch of great to good women wrestlers to help her get better with ring work and she still hasn't improved at all over the years. |

Considering the amount of times Keith Lee has changed his attire so far, WWE really has no clue what look they want for Lee's entrance and wrestling gear.
Never should have put their grubby hands all over his entrance theme and look from NXT since that was already good as is. |

This retribution shit is so dumb. It's a garbage rehash of Nexus, without building them up for three months on their own show first.

Holy shit, this cam work during the Retribution ambush and Hurt Business brawl is atrocious even by WWE standards.
![]() That might have been the dumbest ending to RAW in a while. RAW itself was mostly good but mainly due to the first half of the show being very good in quality. |

According to PWI, the reason for the weird finish in the RAW Women's title match was due to the ref thinking Mickie James suffered a legit injury.
The original planned finish was for James to tap out to Asuka's submission but because of the awkward way she rolled over into submission the spot, the ref thought she hurt herself and called for the match to be off. Quote:

There’s plenty they can do with the Tag Division tbf.
Rollins & Murphy Rey & Dominik Cedric & Shelton Ricochet & Crews or Ali Roode & Ziggler Andrade & Garza (sans Vega) They’re not teams in the traditional sense like The Profits or Raiders but they have enough ties in storylines for them to work. |

Probably can scratch off Rollins & Murphy and Garza & Andrade from that list based on this week's episode.
Same for scratching off Roode & Ziggy since Roode is stuck in Canada until the coronavirus travel restrictions get lifted. Undisputed Era and Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch as two teams off the top of my head that either have done all they could do in NXT (UE) or could potentially be used better on the main roster (Lorcan & Burch). |

Ideal? No, but I wouldn’t have necessarily split them in the first place with the dearth of tag teams on Raw. Quote:
