NFT: WWE Raw

Basically minimizing the existing belt. Which just makes Smackdown more of the little brother. The WWE Universe Title. Are you fucking kidding me. Give me the Raw Champion and Smackdown Champion and maybe a floating overall champion.

The 2nd fatal fourway. Maybe nothing has fucking changed

Is pretty bad ass though.

Pretty clear Balor is a fan favorite and the crowd will be behind him and against Roman.

You need to turn Rollins face to make that work since Balor is not winning against Rollins.

Reigns

help him tonight?

I think this is what happens

That was an amazing womens match

I think they do the opposite, and that would be pretty fucking cool.

Wonder if fin comes out painted up.

Wow!

Are pushing Fin so quickly. I mean he is over, but you think they would push KO or Cesaro or SZ.

No Balor Club and it looks like they are going face with Reigns and the way they are doing it probably will work alright.

This is the belt that should be brought back

The big gold belt. Best belt in the business.

Oh god. Not that POS monstrosity from WCW? That thing was an epic, ugly piece of shit.

Boring.

Or bring back the logo that brought back their popularity and made the company interesting again. The one that won the Monday Night Wars.

Nothing more prestigous looking than that, IMO.

The big gold belt was around long before WCW. That thing is an icon.

They just out a guy who has two matches in his career over one of the top named in the company and in the main event of summerslam and youre complaining? Youre the kind of wrestling fan thay watches just to complain.

Then it's not boring, but the way WWE is, the basically telegraph who is going to win. We all knew Triple H was going to win the Championship at the Rumble and we all knew Reigns would win it back at Mania.

That's what makes it boring. If they give us a swerve and Balor wins that' would not be boring, but in reality it probably won't happen.

He is the man ,I have not marked out like that in awhile as i was not surprised he won the 4 way but for him to go over on Reigns was awesome and it may look like HHH is in charge of the pencil on Raw at least iam hoping anyways .Good to see Sasha win the strap from Charlotte too but Charlotte is great and maybe tonight we will see where Bayley ends up .Love the 2 squash matches.That's the way to get talent over and it gives some local wrestlers some tv time

for the wellness exception. 2 straight jobs + Stephanie running him down in the opening as a loser.

That women's match sure was something, though.

Lol, okay dude. Whatever you want to believe. I guess completely predictable storylines and the same old shit is exciting for you. More power to you.

Having a repeat of a Rollins run as champ for a year + with he and Stephanie licking each other's balls every week will be excruciating.

If Balor wins? Game changer. But it'll never happen.

watching it as a grownup as opposed to a 12 year old without internet rumors has shown me how incredibly difficult it is to keep things under wraps and a surprise. As much as we want to see heel turns and shocking winners, i'm not sure that's the solution. WWE needs health, first and foremost. They need to phase out Lesnar, Cena, HHH, The Rock, and all others who can't/won't wrestle close to full time. It isn't any fun at all watching a guy wrestle a few times a year, then disappear to MMA, then wrestle again. Wrestlemania was nothing but retired vets giving a jolt to one of the worst cards the sport ever featured. And its still bleeding into RAW/Smackdown.

I'm new to NXT but the talent is there, they just need to be featured and marketed. I think this is infinitely more important than any surprises to the story lines.

Cruiserweight tournament 2 weeks ago @ Full sail .All I have to say is WOW ,There is a ton of talent in the tournament .The Cedric Alexander vs Kota Ibushi match is a match of the year candidate ,Both are signed to NXT so after the tournament they will be the next to be pushed to the moon down in NXT ,Lots of good talent down there with Nakamura and now with Kenta Kobayashi coming back from injury we may get a 3 way dance with Soma Joe for the NXT title @ NXT Brooklyn

Was unpredictable. Him beating Rollins would be unpredictable, but I doubt it will happen. They are probably doing this just so everyone can see his entrance on the second biggest wrestling event of the year.

I correct myself. The only way to top that would to do a double turn, and having the Club come out and helping Finn win. I would be behind that.

Sometimes predictability is ok. Like when a Champ wins the belt for the first time, the next match PPV he should win and maybe until the next main PPV.

The maIn PPV events should not always be as predictable as they are.

I think they're going to keep Bayley in NXT for the foreseeable future because there seems to be a dearth of talent, especially star power, there.


BTW, I can't wait until Bayley turns heel and lets down all of those fans, especially Izzy. Little kids should NOT be watching wrestling. #ATTITUDEERA


Then again, my guess is Bayley will be a face for life ala Cena

a feature wrestler in the WWE? I was never a fan of his but watching him last night was awful. He can barely pull off a bump anymore and he seems to go half speed when guys like Zayn are going full speed. It's bad.

I think he move pretty well for an undead zombie. Let's see how agile you are nine years after you die.

Bailey is going to Smackdown. They need a top women competitor and she is never going heel. She is a draw for little girls and that's tough to duplicate.

yes, Jericho. No idea how I made that mistake, i should crippler crossface myself for that.

how does Jericho still wrestle what I assume is full time? He's awful.

[/quote Y2J has a lifetime job with the wwe ,he doesn't even need to wrestle anymore but he is doing it to help some of the younger guys get over ,same with the Dudley's .That's why I was shocked Y2J beat AJ a few months ago even though AJ is not a young wrestler he is young by wwe standards since he never really worked there before except for some Sunday night heat matches over 10 years ago .

not adding Carmella to Enzo & Cass. Could get a real Lita-esque vibe, albeit without the wrestling part...

Cass better milk this tag team for all its worth because when they inevitably split up, Cass will not amount to much. He'll be essentially a jobber.

easily the most entertaining character for me.

Vince loves Cass and he'll get a singles run when they split up. What he does with that is up to him.
