I see where you guys are coming from, but who else could Sasha feud with right now? Bayley? Dana Brooke? This is what happens when there are only FOUR women that have been developed on a brand. I'd like to see Emma get a shot. It was her match with Paige in NXT that got people talking about womens wrestling so i can see them working well together. |

The opening segment was good until Roman Reigns stood tall yet again. Rusev has looked like a bitch during this entire feud. Him stealing the title would have been a good storyline advancement, with Roman taking it back at Hell in a Cell.
The cruiserweight match was great but WWE changing it to non-title was crap.
I don't understand why randomly paired superstars are contending for the Raw Tag Team Championship when they have REAL tag teams on the roster.
Why does everybody hate Tony Nese? I think he's fantastic. I don't have a problem with him beating Rich Swann. I would hate if cruiserweight matches became one sided and the same guys always won.
I've been anticipating Emma's return, but not anymore. She already had a good thing going for her. They didn't need to attach a stupid supermodel gimmick to her. Emmalina? Really?
I like that Sasha Banks won the Raw Women's Championship, but her win didn't feel important. It should have taken place at like, Survivor Series. And her first reign shouldn't have happened at all.

Sasha vs. Charlotte in a Cell is next I guess. Then Survivor Series. Sasha vs. Nia? Emma? Not Emmalina, that's terrible. Please. No. Why not? The feud has been built to something of that magnitude. |

Why not? The feud has been built to something of that magnitude. There are two reasons and we'll start with the "kayfabe" reason which is there really is not a storyline reason to "escalate" the match. They are not having this out of control rivalry where they are fighting around ringside on a regular basis like Rusev and Roman Reigns. They basically killed the "to keep Dana from interfering" aspect tonight with Sasha going over and Dana being nowhere near ringside. Where is the necessity for a gimmick here? It's just not something that I feel actually fits this particular feud. The second reason being I don't actually believe Charlotte and Sasha could adequately perform a match inside Hell in a Cell that would "differ" from their previous 100 matches. You put those two reasons together and it's just not something I'd want to see. It's essentially putting them inside Hell in a Cell so WWE can promote the match as "FIRST TIME EVER!" inside of actually having a reason. |

Been flipping over to Raw during commercial breaks on the game. It's really sad how lifeless and dull the Cruiserweight division already is. Man, I don't miss this show at all. Just a total mess. How bout them Vikings!!!!😀😀😀 I'm a Ravens guy, but I certainly have no ill-will toward the Vikings. It's really amazing what they've been able to accomplish thus far with everything they went through this summer, and the first couple weeks of the season. They're definitely a feel good team this year. |

Does anyone else think a Women's Hell in a Cell match would get bad publicity for WWE? I honestly wouldn't care, but it's possible that in the world we live in they don't want any type of brutality involving women.

It's on the schedule and not needed when a feud needs it. But if I had to choose one rivalry right now that fits the hell in a cell just for booking purposes because it's on the schedule, then Sasha vs Charlotte is definately a candidate . |

God I hope Sasha and Charlotte don't end up in the Cell. I'm guessing they would actually use the Cell itself as a weapon for all of 4 seconds.

Recorded the rest of Raw to jump to the Women's title match after the game ended. Just getting around to it now.
The match was decent, but man, flipping the title again seemed like a bad move to me. As much as I love Sasha, the momentum is with Charlotte right now, and I think it's more important to have a dominant heel champion than it is to have a nice moment at the end of Raw. When in doubt, air on the side of not changing the title. The women's belt has gained a lot of prestige in the last year, I would hate to see that damaged because they want to play hot potato with it.
Also, showing that Charlotte dive over and over was probably not the best of ideas. She almost completely missed.

For a brief second I thought Braun was facing Adam Cole, baybay!

I am beyond sick and tired of Sasha Banks, bad move for WWE to give her the title to try and boost ratings. I wouldn't be surprise if Bayley, Sasha and Charlotte are the only divas fighting for the title for the rest of the year.

Raw had it's moments, Sasha vs. Charlotte was missing something, it didn't feel like a big match while i was watching it. Their main roster matches have been disappointing. In other news i'm gonna miss Evil Emma but if this means more of her in a bikini then i'm interested.

I'm so happy Sasha pulled out the win last night. Much deserved. Now let's see if Charlotte snags it back at Hell to become a three time champ. God knows they want her to break Flair's record for women.

For a brief second I thought Braun was facing Adam Cole, baybay! It would have been Braun's night to lose. Raw was solid. Kendrick is awesome. Tony Nese is awesome. I was glad to see Swann go down. His happy go lucky deal works but there should be situations when he steps it up. Also, the CW division desperately needs to stop being all buddy-buddy ROH ripoff matches. I think guys like Nese, TBK and Gulak are going to bring that identity to the division. I want more of it honestly. I enjoyed Sasha vs Charlotte. Wasn't the greatest match I've ever seen though. The corkscrew needed a better camera angle, like an over the shoulder from behind Sasha. I have zero issue with Charlotte only hitting her with the arm, because it's dangerous as hell otherwise, but protect the performers with angles when you have all the tools in the world to make that happen. Loved all things JeriKO, New Day and Seth Rollins. All of that worked for me. Seth's stuff with both Cole and Stephanie were great. I'm already pumped to see Triple H vs Rollins. I think Sheamus and Cesaro might end up being a thing for awhile. We do this all the time when random stars get together, but look at how Kidd and Cesaro turned out. Air Boom, Team Hell No, and JeriShow. The WWE has done this for years and it's worked. Owen and Yokozuna, the New Age Outlaws were originally random as hell, and how about Booker T and Goldust? I honestly couldn't care any less about Cesaro and Sheamus right now. So maybe this can work for them. Meh. |

I love that Sasha won the title back last night to become a 2x Womens Champ but confused as to why WWE made her win it on another RAW show.. I would've loved to see it at a PPV tbh.

I enjoyed RAW. Besides the Golden Truth, I was invested in the whole show. I think the only negative is the 3 hours. It causes the show to drag at times.

I wasn't expecting the Women's Championship match at all, let alone be the main event. Charlottes corckscrew moonsault was incredible, very happy to see Sasha win back the title, now she just needs to successfully defend it at Hell in a Cell.
