No one cares.
But Brock will kick off Raw. Smart to do before the NBA game starts.
Don't really care about anything else, but I'll be around for the first hour.

This Alicia Fox on the Titantron deal is hilarious.

Seth v Bray in a relationship battle.
Just reunite The Shield as a renewed hot heel team. They totally suck as faces.

DID YOU SEE THE SEGMENT WITH THE "AFRICAN AMERICANS" AND THE ASIAN GUY? THEY WERE DOING THAT SELF PICTURE DEAL WITH THE MOBILE PHONES. WHO SAYS I'VE LOST MY TOUCH. FUCK YOU AND FUCK ANYONE NAMED PHIL.

I like Rich Swann. But I LOVE the way they handled this match.

Only things I've seen so far, I liked, well, almost. The Miz/Bear vs Rhyno/Slater match was whatever. Went on too long. Cole made some 1960's reference. We didn't get a BEAR-Y Horowitz or BEAR-Y Windham reference. Get it together Graves!
Neville destroying Swann I enjoyed. I'm actually going to really like Tozawa/Neville. Crowd could give two shits though, but then again, Raw crowd doesn't see 205 Live, so honestly, unless their fans of these guys already, why would the fans care?
Hardys/Cesaro/Sheamus was a solid main event. I get they want to keep it going but I absolutely hated the double countout finish for a 2/3 falls match. At first I was surprised they ended the show with it, but it was 4th quarter of the game that just started, so clearly they couldn't give a shit. It was a filler match that just happened to be the main event.
Very interested in the ratings for this ep.

Also saw the video package of them hyping Roman Reigns next week addressing Summerslam.
I'm thinking if Braun/Brock will happen then, I assume we get Cena/Reigns at the PPV?

Incredibly tame pull apart with Joe & Brock. If Brock/Taker pull apart was a 10, this was about a 3. All I noticed was how much Bo Dallas looks like Bray now. He has full beard too. Why isn't he a lackey for his brother?
Drifter/Ambrose was good. Drifter has impressed me so far on the main roster. His character gets a lot of heat because of how annoying he is. It's great.
Tozawa/Titus/Crews are oddly entertaining the fuck out of me. Hope that keeps up.
They used the Tyler Breeze cell phone gimmick for Dar & Alicia FOOOOOOOOOXXXXX. Kind of enjoyed it. I think Cedric beats Neville for the CW title.

Emma is back!! And........she lost. F that. I guess they needed Alexa to run for the hills & also keep Nia strong, so Emma was the odd woman out. Here's hoping they do something with Emma after the Nia/Alexa feud finishes.
Can't believe I'm saying this because I loved her in NXT so much, but I hate main roster Bayley. That promo was just awful. She said she didn't go through with hitting Alexa with the kendo stick because it was her first time in such a match & anyone else would've done the same thing. REALLY??? YOU ASKED FOR THAT MATCH!!!!!!! Alexa had never wrestled in that kind of match either!!! She said her goal isn't to do damage to people, but put smiles on peoples faces. Can't believe it, but they made Bayley unlikeable. Her desperately wanting a hug from Graves was sad (I'm assuming there is more to that & there's a backstory to all the hugs she needs in general). Graves said he needed a cigarette after, haha.
Slater/Miz/Maryse/Rhyno segment backstage was fucking hysterical.
DVR rules. Fast forward the horseshit.

I missed it because I skipped it on the DVR, but I saw it on YouTube, the Hardys did a backstage promo where Matt said "They may believe they're the bar..." then Jeff said "We're about to BREAK the bar!" and Matt twitched slightly when Jeff said 'break'.
Very subtle, but I liked it.

Love how they're portraying Joe. Not a snatchy. Got right in Brock's boring face.

KS Jr is damn lucky. He'll never see this crap on Hulu.

Ol' Corny still knows how to book'em. Would really like it to be a submission match as he suggested.

60 minute broadway between Joe and Lensar could be great, though it would suffer in comparison to Omega-Okada.

Yeah.
I think if he trained he could do it at Summerslam, but it will never happen.

His lack of effort effects Heyman too. Every so often Paul goes back to being fantastic on the mic, but most of the time, he's been on repeat for his promos.
The novelty has worn off.
