Glad I don't have a stick up my butt. I'm glad you were able to get it removed in a timely manner There's a few others here who should try the same.  |

Overall, good show. It had a tournament style feel to it, which I always love. New Day on point, awesome match out of Ziggler, and a great main event. Roman was my last choice to win but I would have put all the money in my bank account on him walking away number one contender.
Only segment I didn't care for was the Divas match. I actually think the division is at a worse spot than it was just a few months ago. Give the Divas two segments a night and stop shoving all of them into one match. I mean talk about taking the longest road humanly possible to get to some kind of Paige vs Charlotte match.
I enjoyed Raw last week and I think this one was good as well. I like the entire show being built around Rollins and the chase for the title. The WWE Title, to me, should always feel more important than anything else that's going on and last night's Raw was really built around that idea.

Raw was good but people are acting like another boom period started last night.

Really enjoyed this week's show. With no Cena or Orton around and Lesnar probably gone until next year, now's the time to build some new stars WWE.

Last night's show was such a stark contrast to everything they've done in the last several weeks. It's almost hard to believe that the same people were responsible for writing it. Hell, maybe they weren't. They've been trying to throw everything at the wall for weeks hoping it would stick, and last night they finally did it. The only question is whether or not they can continue this trend, or if it was simply a one week anomaly in an otherwise dreadful creative period.
It's amazing how important you can make Raw feel when the matches actually matter. Sure, we all know Roman Reigns was going to win the thing, but at least these guys were fighting for something. And, beyond that, they even had a reason for being there. Picking only winners from Hell in a Cell was a small detail WWE usually ignores entirely. It sent the message that the results of the Pay-Per-View mattered. Do you know how refreshing that is? It's so, so simple and yet so rarely acknowledged. I was delighted.
The wrestling itself was above average, too, which hoisted a well booked show up into even better territory.
Kane getting involved in the Wyatt Family saga is excellent. It's just about the only role I could possibly want to see Kane in right now. The Wyatts have been dragged through the mud more often than not, but somehow, Bray came out looking credible last night. He acknowledged his loss to Roman instead of ignoring it, promised to get him back, and presented us a reason for going after The Undertaker. Seriously, where did this logic suddenly come from?
Overall, I'm still against the idea of babyface Roman Reigns winning the title, or really being anywhere near it, and I'm not keen on the idea of doing Reigns/Rollins without flipping the two, but it was handled well enough for me to mostly look past it. Regardless of how I feel, Reigns/Rollins feels like a nice, fresh main event, which is certainly welcome after Rollins/Kane.
Kudos to WWE for turning things around in a big, big way. The real question is whether or not they can build on it, or if they just get lazy next week.

I just hope the ratings reflect that raw is much better when you focus on building up the future stars so then vince can see that he needs to be looking ahead and not back all the damn time

Great episode of Raw. Best one in months I'd say. If you're complaining about that episode of Raw, then I question why you even watch it.
Roman was the right choice to go over. Rollins/Reigns has a big match feel. Ambrose in the match would be cool since the Shield debuted at Survivor Series but I'm more than happy with this current title match.

With them willing to go Reigns/Rollins now, it makes me wonder if the Shield triple threat is being considered for Mania. I kind of thought Rollins/Reigns was high on their list for that spot, but obviously not.
I still think Rollins/Triple H is more likely, but who knows.

Raw was enjoyable. No drama, just a focus on quality matches.

Raw was fantastic. It seemed like there was so much wrestling and ignoring the Diva slot, it was a good show. Every match was so important and the crowd were on fire. Austin's mini cameo was cool and Rollins was awesome on commentary. It's funny because I actually groaned when it started with King of Kings thinking 'same old, same old' but it turned out to be a great, great show. Keep it up WWE!

RAW was actually decent this week. Not fantastic, but it was better then recent weeks (which isn't saying much, but still). The 4-way was a great main event. The only complaint I have for RAW is two things: A) It's blatantly clear WWE Creative has nothing for Dean Ambrose. Which is bullcrap IMO, because he deserves better than being Reigns' sidekick. B) That crap with PCB. Can this Divas' Revolution storyline just end, already? It's literally the worst thing in WWE today. And that's saying alot. Anyways, I expect RAW to go back to sucking next week, but I did enjoy the show this week. Stevie Wonder can see Ambrose's turn coming. I would love it if Ambrose did turn heel at Survivor Series, but I'm not sure if they will. Especially considering the report that came out that Ambrose is going to be pushed during Orton's & Cena's absence. I can see them keeping Dean a face, because with Randy & John gone, Roman would be the only face they have if they were to turn Ambrose heel. Well when you've been losing as often as Barrett has, I'm sure you'd celebrate the same way. |

Agreed, but the WWE title will continue to carry no weight as long as Rollins holds it. His match with Kane during Hell in a Cell was bathroom break material. Most of his title defenses have been disasters. |

At Survivor Series I'd love to see the Authority betray Rollins, costing him the title and Reigns going heel joining them. It's obvious the fans don't want to cheer Reigns and Rollins still gets good pops. Could build it around the Authority getting sick of just how conceited Rollins has gotten, all the bragging, all the trying to get around defenses, all of that stuff. Where as Reigns will just go in and do his thing.
