I've got nothing. But I'll be around tonight. I'll delete this if Don uses his rapist wit to create a better thread.

Why must they have names for everything? Tonight's main event is The Family vs The Club in a 6 man elimination match.
Brock destroyed Ambrose in the parking lot prior to Mania & the same show, a few hours later, drove an ambulance back to the arena. Now Jericho hits Ambrose with Mitch the plant & he supposedly has been seriously injured.
So stupid.

Mitch the plant is more over than 75% of the roster.

Yikes. Enzo's still out.

Oh for sure, but the fact that we're supposed to believe a potted plant was more vicious than a beating from Brock Lesnar in a parking lot. I know Vince's attention span lasts like 40 minutes, but c'mon man.
Wow, Big Cass out to interrupt Jericho. Gotta give them credit, they've been utilizing Cass really well since Enzo's injury.

What if all of the NXT people that have been called up are part of Hunter's faction? Shane ends up representing Vince.

If you hadn't watched WWE for about twelve months, you'd think Big Cass is a main event guy. Well done big man.

There's a chance we won't see Enzo for a long time. We don't know the severity of his concussion. So I don't expect him back for quite a while.
That said, Cass looked & sounded like a fucking stud in that segment. Opening segment face to face with Jericho & he more than held his own. Most guys who have been on the roster for years wouldn't have been that strong.
That was fucking impressive.

Cubs game postponed so I turned on Raw at 7pm. Great opening segment. I know little about Cass but I like his presence. That was really fun and I'm assuming unexpected to open the show. That's part of what has been missing. The unknown. Good stuff. Looks like they are Main Eventing the show tonight? That is great.
and Stephanie with Y2J fantastic.
Lets see if Ziggler and Corbin can keep my attention.

Jericho is definitely in the lead for the possible party boy.

Cubs rain delay means Woodridge joins us on here tonight? Hooray!
Stephanie sounded like Cookie Monster when she tried to spell SAWFT.
Ziggler/Corbin I'm assuming will lead to a match at the PPV, so expect a clusterfuck finish here.
They've said "new era" 5 times already.

I really like Corbin's look. Needs some work it appears on the mic.
Ziggler's done right? He's essentially Broski from 4 years ago. On the show, but jobbing to everyone?

He's Kofi Kingston pre-New Day. Always reliable to wrestle a main eventer, but primarily stuck on the undercard.

We will see how long I stay. If something sucks I'll probably leave.
Since this is my first show back I'm fine with all the New Era talk. It does feel like a reset. I'm trying to watch this and forget anything that happened at Mania...since Vince did, haha.

This is a long ass commercial break....during a match at that.

That finisher by Corbin looked pretty sweet. Add another to the list of finishers that look infinitely better than the shitty ones Reigns uses.

Oh yeah, I forgot Ziggler won at Payback.
50/50 booking at it's finest.

Oh good, first thing I see is the Samoan Shit Team graphic against ... hell I already forgot.
I need bagels ... the food, not the poster.

Good match. Nice finisher. And I like how Baron isn't trying to be a cool heel. He's just trying to be a heel right now. Had some nice heel subtilties throughout the match. Good show 38 minutes in.

Oh they are going with "The Club" for sure now..ugh.
I like AJ's promos. Not trying to oversell anything. Comes off natural. Doesn't feel scripted. 45 minutes in...still here. I think Paige is hot so that probably gets me through the first hour.

If it wasn't for Jojo being a hot spokesmodel for Booty-O's, she literally brings nothing else to the table. She's a robot with her questions. Terrible.

I think Paige is hot so that probably gets me through the first hour. Agree, it's going to suck being just The Club, but that's only because New Japan owns Bullet Club. Once Balor gets called up, I have no doubt in my mind that it'll change to The Balor Club. There's already shirts made for that & that's what Balor calls his fans.
At least this isn't as bad as Hall, Nash & X-Pac in TNA when they were called The Band.
