I honestly get a good laugh out of anyone who says they're done after something like this. Whether they really stop watching it not isn't the point, I can just imagine people I only know from a username and avitar throwing temper tantrums. For me, it's not really a temper tantrum. It's more dejection. I really do love wrestling.. and probably always will. But when you see how bad it is these days.. and you compare it with the high of watching UFC, for example.. or watching football (soccer to you Americans).. I just ask myself - what's the point? Raw was not bad at all tonight.

How did this place turn on roman so damn quick? He was the ONLY person since w.m 31 that has been putting on good matches on a CONSISTENT basis Sure his promos have been lacking but this guys in ring work has improved so much since he won the rumble last year its crazy Its definatly his time hell his time was at s.s but by having sheamus cash in they got another month of programming out of it That extra month of programming just happened to be a low point in WWE history, according to ratings and social media. Most of the board has been heavily against Roman's babyface rise since the Rumble win last year, and justifiably so. Until last night, there was no indication he would ever get over as a babyface headliner. He was regressing on the microphone, and was responsible for some of the worst segments of Raw in years. With all that being said, putting the title on him tonight was the right move in context. Simply put, there are no good choices. They stubbornly backed themselves into this corner and we're in too deep to get out of it. Doing the title change on Raw was a hotshot, for sure, but it indicates that Vince had a genuine concern about the ratings as of late, which is important. I very strongly dislike Roman Reigns as a babyface character. I think he's unnatural, condescending, uninteresting and unengaging as a character. I've yet to see a single indication that he has the ability to improve upon that,and therefore, I don't see myself ever getting behind him in this role. With all of that being said, I think he displays the potential to be one of the best heels in years. I wish they were going in that direction, but, it is what it is.

So happy to see Reigns as champion finally.I really feel that as long as he stays health he should get a title reign that last until at least WM 33 where we finally get our Shield triple threat for the title.As far as people predicting that he get striped of the title next week I really don't think so,Michael Cole made it extremely clear that REINGS is the man now.I think the best route and most interesting way to go would be the McMahon's screwing him by making him defend the WWE Title in the actual Royal Rumble match(like how it was done in '92) and he's also forced to start out at the #1 spot.You have against all odds Reigns retain and win back to back Rumbles and continue him going over on the McMahon's and set up Triple H comeback to try and take the title off him at WM 32.

wrestling is dead. there is literally no point to anything anymore. it's just "Reigns beats up everybody" there are 28 writers on Vince's back and the best stuff they can come up with is "put the 4 non-americans together and have reigns beat them all up, then he beats up sheamus and wins the wwe title" Yup. The good news is the company literally will be dead within the next few years of them following this Cena 2.0 pattern. You didn't even watch the show, yet you hated it enough to bash it anyway? Do you not see a movie but still give reviews on IMDB anyhow? Because if you don't watch = your opinion is null & void. Sorry.

Getting death threats from fans. Didn't lose the belt to the home town guy, but almost did. Fans were furious claiming they'd never go back. Granted flair wasn't there the next weekend but those same fans were. Lol

Wow with the complainers, everyone says they want an attitude era wwe again, tonight felt like I was watching the attitude era. Hardcore match, ass said several times, a freaking title change on RAW. Blood. Wth the iwc sucks sometimes, get over the entitlement and enjoy it for what it is and always has been , a mindless male soap opera with stunt fighting.

Reading through Twitter stuff. Yet to see one bad thing about reigns winning. Hmmm.. I realize the WWE thinks hashtags on Twitter is the best way to convince themselves that they're doing a great job, but I can guarantee you their older fans above the age of 18 aren't logging on and Tweeting the company how much they hate Roman Reigns. There's zero point.

To be honest, I think Philly fans like to be different. When fans were cheering Reigns, they started the hate bandwagon. Now that half the country has followed along, they cheer him. It's almost always Opposite Day in Philly. Yeah, Philly was interesting. Usually, we're loud and doing weird ass chants. Usually some drunk guy starts yelling weird things while people around him make fun. Maybe that's just my luck though. But tonight, it seemed like the Philly house show crowds, not a Televised Philly crowd. Well, the show has been utter sh-t for over a month now. It's not shocking to think that the hardcore fans just said " it", and didn't go.

He was the ONLY person since w.m 31 that has been putting on good matches on a CONSISTENT basis I respectfully disagree with Roman being the only one putting on consistently good matches. I'd say Cena had as much, if not, more consistently better matches than anybody else this year in WWE. Don't forget Seth. And KO. And Cesaro.

It's the end goal right? Should we really need the inevitable delayed that much on a program that really isn't geared for the nerds of the wrestling world? We have NXT, Lucha Underground, ROH, indies, Japan, etc. Do we need to care this much?
I mean it sucks they can't book a show right, sure. But does the champion result matter? If he can be a legitimate star, whatever I guess. WWE always needs that. But was it that bad? I, self admittedly am confused why they didn't just do it last night, but they needed to create the character that people asked for. Reigns as an angry, silent azz kicker. Which they did, minus the prunes promo.
There's more about Raw to be pissed at than that. Starting a match to cut it short for Vince was much worse. Tyler Breeze being basically a loss for a Neville/Miz bit was awful. Use Slater or Curtis, they literally don't mean anything right now.
Overall that was not the worst Raw that could have followed last night.

I agree with most of that I was 110% against roman winning the title at mania but this past year he has proved he deserves it I think the money with roman is as a heel

I'm glad Sheamus isn't champion and I'm glad Roman is champion but I didn't care for Raw. It was just boring.

The end of this show just made me sad. I'm not angry or raging or anything. Just bummed.
I don't want to see months of Vince and Hunter and Steph vs Roman Reigns. He's no Stone Cold.
It's like a bad dream that just won't end.

For me, it's not really a temper tantrum. It's more dejection. I really do love wrestling.. and probably always will. But when you see how bad it is these days.. and you compare it with the high of watching UFC, for example.. or watching football (soccer to you Americans).. I just ask myself - what's the point? Raw was not bad at all tonight. In my defence, I really couldn't be bothered to watch the majority of it. I only watched the Vince McMahon segment (which was horrible) and the main event (again, horrible). I didn't see anything else.
