I'm totally fine with the Sasha/Nia match being pre-show. Honestly, it seems like the tag title feud will continue after this, plus with the silly stip, I'm cool with that being on the pre-show too.
This just hopefully means the other matches get more time & aren't rushed. It also hopefully means we get less backstage bullshit, but who am I kidding, of course we'll get that.

Goldberg is gonna have a grabber in the ring.
I'm worried about him.
What the hell was that last night?

Yeah I knew what busted him open. It was the horse abortion of a promo that I was talking about.
And the profuse sweating.

Just listening to Observer Radio reviewing Raw. Alvarez was talking about how dull & robotic the Bayley/Charlotte interviews were, trying to compare Graves interviewing them to Jim Ross interviewing Mick Foley from 97 (seriously), but Dave cut him off & strongly disagreed. Whenever Dave really disagrees, Bryan always just gets quiet. Alvarez is a moron sometimes. That I've always said. Still won't talk shit about Big Dave (you can't make me!)
I know a majority of you hate Meltzer, but you'd at least have to agree that the Charlotte/Bayley interview was probably the LEAST robotic sounding either girl has sounded in quite a while.
I can't stand Charlotte talking, but her interview was excellent. Bayley wasn't terrible either. Not all time great, but still it wasn't bad.

I'm not saying this to contradict Meltzer or you but I was gonna rip on the Bayley interview in this thread last night but was too tired of her to even make a post. I thought she was just as goofy as always and I thought Charlotte was just as great as always.  |

In fact, I had just gotten off the phone with scorejr before I read your post, randomone and for the first time ever scorejr has officially turned on Bayley which was simply astonishing to me. So I can clearly say that the interview didn't do anything for him either and actually made him finally get tired of her. I love that kid.  |

In fact, I absolutely love reading his 80's and 90's stuff. But I love reading the non-opinion stuff from that time period. I just figured out his strategy. It's actually quite brilliant, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. |

It's weird, because I usually hate at least 85% of RAWs each week, but I really enjoyed last night. It didn't seem like a chore to watch, which is a rarity.
With Bayley, that's her character. She's the goofy, lovable (not to all), been a fan since the beginning girl, so I didn't expect anything else than what we really got. Charlotte though, who talks at a snails pace each week, surprised me the most, as I was actually interested in what she was saying. I'm looking forward to the match & the continuation of the chase for Bayley. Hopefully she wins the title at Mania. That's when you break the Charlotte streak, not at the Rumble.
Drop In I agree, I really like reading the Observer rewinds the guy posts on reddit. I was a kid then, so finding out what was going on in Japan or Mexico or the behind the scenes stuff in WWF or WCW, it's really interesting.
