I'm surprised they've not given the group a proper name

It's been the 2 worst being featured tonight, Nattie and Nia.
Where are the talent cuts when we need them? |

Tag match was decent.
Wonder if Theory is going back to NXT considering his current RAW run has been very forgettable and he was only really brought in to beef up RAW's depleted roster. |

These axe throwing skits would be more entertaining or effective if either Street Profits or Vikings Raiders were an actual comedic team. Instead feels just as dumb as last week's basketball skits.

Wonder how long till Theory gets kicked out of Rollins group.
This would also have been a pretty good ending for RAW if the show had actually ended now. |

All those axe throwing segments just to reuse the same "they were actually faking being bad" joke from last week.
Also that didn't even make sense with the setup involving the cops. |

LOL Wait, the brand to brand invitational is only available 4 times a year?
Charlotte already to Smackdown King Corbin already to Raw AJ Styles already to Smackdown to be in IC Tourney. Just burning through those 4 times. |

This show seems like it was pretty good based on the results (due to things actually happening and storylines seemingly being furthered) but feels like whenever I think that, people who watched the show say that it was insanely boring

I only watched parts of it but listened to all of it playing in a tab while doing other things and it was insanely boring

Drew vs. Corbin was decent at best.
at Corbin losing two high profile matches in a row. Such a terrible choice to be the first one to showcase for the new rule. This week's episode was somewhat decent overall. More due to the pretty good job they did with story building stuff and way less due to ring action since it was the weakest in a while. |

Glad "my man" Austin Theory is kind of getting a push... Have a "soft spot" 4 him due to watching him in EVOLVE and thinking he was really good there

They did a really bad job explaining the “rules” on Raw. Definitely sounded like it was 4x a year for each brand. They really shouldn’t have put rules on it at all. |

Putting rules at all is pointless because they will 100% ignore them as soon as they decide they want to book someone on another show.

This show was somewhat interesting. There wasn't a lot of useless filler, really. Natalya is the female Big Show when it comes to alignment turns.

Raw Thoughts
They’ve got a handful of things bubbling along that I’m finding interesting. I’m quite keen on Drew vs Lashley but I think my expectation has been skewed by an incredible match I had between the two on WWE 2K19 (insane I know). They’re two big dudes who can go in the ring. I’m onboard with the MVP/Lashley pairing too. The Austin Theory joining Seth angle I liked too. Seth taking advantage of people when they’re at there lowest point is an interesting wrinkle in the tail, and it advances this cult/prophet deal as having Murphy as his only disciple would have limited range. Not entirely sure it’s part of the plan but I like that Seth has taken on one of Zelina’s outcasts when he’s on a collision course with Aleister Black. What intel did Theory get on Black from being in his (real life) wife’s group? Though I doubt we’ll see that play out. Hoping we get both Seth vs Rey and Seth vs Black over the coming weeks/months. |
