I can see why people dont want Sasha in this spot if you aren't a fan of her but I dont think there's anyone more credible on RAW for Becky to be paired with right now. These guys are going to lay shit in too.

I thought it was getting really good until the finish. I need to rewatch Embdr vs Bayley I wasn't paying my full attention but it seemed good but the crowd wasn't hot for it, I probably was excited about that match the most. Brays Redebut was cool too. I need to rewatch AJ vs Ricochet too, I caught the finish. Nothing was terrible from what I seen. Nattie vs Becky was MotN people give Nattie alot of shit sometimes but when she is on she delivers. Although I thought Trish seemed like she was trying hard to keep up, She did really well. It had me thinking she would've been a whole lot better if she was able to work these type of matches consistently when she was around same for her most of her peers too

I was thinking that Richie Steamboat was really good before he had to end his Career. He was working really well with Rollins and Ambrose in particular. Alot of these developmental guys especially alot of those 2nd Generation guys were very bland coming on to the main roster, Teddy Jr , Cody. Ray Gordy turned out to be really good before they released him, but Richie was really good

They way people speak about them in retrospect you'd think they were a team for more than a few months. I remember watching a few several WCW PPVs a clashes from that era with them as a team and his seems like they were together as long as Da Bar.

Roman and the Uso's especially the bigger one look like they could become hosses if they wanted to just not watch their weight. Isn't that the Reason why Roman still wears the vest?

I just got off work and the first thing I noticed was some quoting there Father's reaction of Harley's death. I'll admit most of the Matches of his I've seen was from the WWE 24/7 stuff I got from torrent sites 10 years ago or so. He was way more giving than he needed to but he still come across as any less menacing. Xpac retweeted my favorite quote from him. " "What's your finish.....I'll move" My other favorite story is about how he'd ask for his opponents wrist before a match, he'd check the wrist be going out to measure the bone density and determine how stiff he'd work that person in a match. He Probably had the best run of matches with Hulk of all the former NWA champions. I really want to go check out his All Japan work first.

I think its dope having Tully in a managerial role. Spears wouldn't be my first choice for him but hopefully it works for him. If they were to bring in Batista, I'd have him be someone's agent and just be at ringside for them every week dressed like only Dave can dress and He can get physical on occasion with out having to have a match.

I thought I heard Khan say he offered to buy ROH from SBC, That would've been great for ROH. It would've been easier for them to try to get closer to the Gabe era if they were to have 2 hours on a major network every like the DVD era. They have a ton of great talent but the Wrestling isn't going to be at the expectation of the early 2000s. There is so much good Wrestling even in WWE. Even AEW talks about Presenting a more sports oriented Wrestling Promotion and stats and things but you see alot of parody Wrestling and comedy. They are almost bringing on the impression of wanting to be an American version of New Japan on one hand, certain people will roll their eyes when they see guys that do bring on a serious approach.

I watched most the show through my Twitter feed while I was at work, I got a kick out of the young ladies on my Black Wrestling Twitter feed lose their panties over a 60 year old Kevin Nash. Most of which were probably just born when NWO was hot. You gotta love Hunter folding his arms during Hulks promo too. I know Street Profits are Heymans project with the RVD line they are going to get over well once they start working matches on Raw. Austin is probably the only person who can end Raw with a talking segment and fans not complain, he seemed to speak off the cuff and I thought it was a good way to use him and get his new show over. This seemed like one of the best Raw Specials they've done.

Remember in January people including me thought that Omega not being involved with New Japan was going to hurt them, Don't get me wrong , he was killing it all the way up till end but, him leaving lead to other people stepping up. Also alot of his Elite buddies didn't really fit in New Japan. People felt like AEW would be the better company to partner with than current ROH but other than Omega and maybe the Lucha Bros, I dont see anyone else would fit.

I'm on night 5, what's the story behind ZSJ saying if he wins he'd cash in In August instead of WK

I thought Kingston vs Joe was really good, imagine if Joe was booked stronger as a monster. Claudio vs Black was dope too. Mostly every match was hot. I want to see how Heyman books Raw know that Brock is Champ. I got no problem with Brock as Champ,especially is Heyman has creative influence because I'm sure he's going to try to keep the heat of Lesnar not being around as much. With them forcing Seth and Becky relationship on TV every week is going to be worse for Seth without the title though

Its already the talk of Twitter, and this is a few months after the John Oliver thing. When wrestlers go on these platforms that is Wrestling friendly but not directly associated with the company these questions will likely come up. Even John Oliver in his segment came across as respectable to the business but more so sympathetic to the talent

That happened alot in this time period especially with Cena. Alot of big angles got flat because they didn't want him off TV. Same thing with the Summer of Punk angle, Punk was right back on TV. People were thought it was stupid that Strowman and Lashley were back on RAW Monday after their deal. If your going to pull off a big angle that calls for a guy to sit out a few weeks than keep the guy off. If not than dont run the angle. You gotta be legit hurt to be off TV unless you got a Jericho or Brock type deal.

True, they tried to Recreate it with He and Orton a few Summerslams ago ??

I want know if people think Brock vs Cena at Extreme Rules '12 holds up as well as it did then, I remember people here were saying it may have been one of the best PPV matches in WWE ever. I was really mad that Brock didn't go over on his first match back especially since he went on to end 'Takers streak. You look at the way he's been booked the past few years especially, its even more puzzling that he lost that match. I know at that point Cena was by far the most protected guy but I still find it crazy he went over.

Either that or the Rock Bottom which is why I never had a problem buying it. Hogan did a bodyslam as a set up for the Leg drop. Unless you're buying into it being a 300 lb Leg drop how is the People's Elbow anyless believable if its followed up by either of those. Plus for Hulk that Ax Bomber looked so much more credible and would've took alot less toll on him but maybe he thought Slamming his opponent especially the bigger ones made him look stronger than just a running Lariot that he could just hit from nowhere

Before then his finisher was a rolling neckbraker, that was a time where guys have the most basic looking moves as finishers like the Wasteland finisher Barrett had or the Playmaker MVP had, he switched over to the Kawada kick but then they banned that. I thought those lame finishers was another obstacle for guys getting over

Andrade and Zelina have such great chemistry, if I was a kid right now I could totally buy into them as a couple but honestly I such a mark for Andrade that a was so happy when I found out he a Charlotte are a serious couple. I heard Vince was high on him several months ago but now he has more of a reason to push him at some point soon and not get cold on him.

You can say that for every top guy in Titan to a degree.

I really enjoyed this show, Ospreay vs Archer was my MOTN, I thought every match pretty much was to set the tone for the rest of the G1 and sort introduce the G1 to the American audience.

Man is Review of DoN was some of the funniest shit I heard in a long time. I dont agree with everything he said but I feel like he's pretty much got to stick to the gimmick of ripping on the new school. Plus I feel like if he hated the new school so much, he wouldn't be working will MLW. It's not like he dont make valid points

Was that his best match?

Roman is a Heyman guy, Honestly I think He would benefit more being on a Heyman booked show. Although I do see Bischoff viewing Reigns as a guy he'd have as his ace. The problem is I dont see Eric using him any better than Vince, unless Eric is smart enough to let Roman be himself and get out of his way. I don't alot of Smackdown Live roster fits more like prime Nitro era midcard workrate guys that he wouldn't push in that era. RAW has more top level guys with Size like Braun and Lashley and Drew. After Heymans first official night with Major influence I think expectations are high for Bischoff too. He has the advantage of sitting back a few weeks before he starts. If anything, Eric knows the format of the show needs to change that will solve about half the problem of Smackdown. The creative end , I dont thing Vince will have enough faith in him in that aspect.
