I'll just leave this here. Been watching a couple of these every day on my lunch break this summer. Plenty of old WCW, TNA, and indy footage in there as well it's all pretty damn funny.

When it come to actual talent in the ring Dolpf Ziggler delivers. Why he's still a third tier guy ...??? Right now him and Seth Rollins are the best performers they have. And if they let him Cody Rhodes would be there with them.

I realize that Rollins is getting a bit of a push but I doubt he gets where he should be. This can't be about lack of size since neither Bryan or Punk were big guys. Hmmmmm.....if those two came back and they did give Ziggler a push and Lesnar actually rassled, we'd see the best roster they've had in a long long time.

Hunter
burying Punk
killing Bryan's momentum
attention whoring on TV for the past year
shoving the "I do what's best for business" card down all the marks' throats; actually only interested in making money for himself
laughing his way to the bank
can't stand the fact that Rock drew more money in 3 years of work than he did in 2 decades.

The WWE will be in nearby Fresno soon, I did think about it but since we fast forward past a good half of Raw.....nay!

Too much girlie , Santino, cartoon bull , we couldn't fast foreward in person.

All those behind the scenes who come up with the angles/story lines have never sucked worst than they do now. It's as if a bunch of rookies were running the biz,

Outside of the Miz-Ziggler match, every other result was predictable. Even the Nikki Bella heel turn.

For some reason I actually enjoyed this PPV. Much of that has to do with Cena being thrown around like a rag doll. After all the push he got these last ten years (which imo has been the center of this companies collapse) it was refreshing to see his ass get kicked.

Lesnar winning opens up ideas for who to put over. They will now bill whoever is able to take out this overpowering mega heel. My money is on reigns.

Also, I wonder what happens to cena now. Is he taking time off for acting? If he does return he'll feud with Rusev or some other lower tier wrestler.

last night showed reingns isn't ready for the ME just yet,the highlights of his match all belonged to orton and he has like 4 moves

[Avante]

What a shame Ryback is such a moron. He's the guy that matchs Lesnar physically, actually out matches him. But he just doesn't have...."it".

[Trainwreck2100]

RIP big gold belt, it got officially retired tonight, and it's long history with it

You might be right. I expected someone to cut a promo with Lesnar in that one segment. That's the problem with this company though. They have failed at doing what they did best in the 90's-early 00's. They don't push their talent nearly as well...it hurts that the roster is somewhat stale.

Case in point this six man tag team tonight. It's just feeder material when promos and feuds should organically evolve from within in route to NOC.

Yeah...so much history with that belt. Now that they've unified the belt what is the reason for smackdown? It feels like such a watered down minor league product.

[TE]

A little under an hour left...this match will take 30 mins. Leaving 30-45 minutes. Please don't disappoint...

[TE]

I get the idea that Rollins and Ambrose are having a feud but could it get anymore predictable.

[Avante]

Thank God for The Shield. Imagine the WWE without them, Bryan and Punk.......yikes!

The best role for Reigns should be a bodyguard role.

Unfortunately vince is a moron still obsessed with big guys who back in the day were far better athletes because they were hopped up on steroids The wwe outlawed them so here we are

[Trainwreck2100]

Wow this was one of the worst raws in recent history

I regret signing up for the WWE network. I've watched many of the programs offered, only ones I've enjoyed were this years summerslam and the Monday night wars mini-do entary. Everything else is unless nostalgia forces you to watch the past.
