Overall I liked the show. It was nostalgic fun. Not a whole lot wrestling, but most raw episodes have plenty. I thought it was weird Stone Cold said nothing during his segment. I loved Elias getting the upper hand on Cena. So how are we supposed to take Reigns seriously as a threat to Lesnar when he lost to the Miz?

Most disappointing raw like ever honestly. I was expecting big things, and I don't know why, since raw has disappointed me for years now. No rock, no hogan, no sting, no nash. I get it, some weren't booked or whatever, but ffs, the only good part was to open raw with SCSA stunning Vince like always. Bury the Revival and nobody did ANYTHING in the main event segment. Side note, New Day will never get old to me, thank GOD they came out on RAW to save the abomination that was this 3 hour train wreck.

In Austin's promo backstage he said something along the lines of, "next time you guys bring me here how about giving me some mic time?" I'm sure there was some truth behind that line. He's said in the past that he only likes coming back to do stuff on camera if it makes sense and he's able to really enjoy himself. I get the feeling that all of these guys had no idea what they'd be doing for the show tonight until they got to the arena and were told a few hours before going live. Scott Hall even said that the company told him a few days ago to bring his wrestling gear because they were going to have him do something with X-Pac, but that was obviously scrapped.

NAh last week after their match they just cut the promo. At least I don’t think they pissed anyone off.

My problem with Raw was everyone who was there was advertised. It’s just stupid: I get it, you want to draw people to watch it and all that but keep some thing under wraps. DX came back awesome! HHH and HBK come out cut their promo and Boom have an unannounced new aged outlaws come out. Let them go through their thing and be all in the ring have someone say hey I feel something missing Boom xpac music hits. Little more shock and pop factor. Could you imagine the pop Austin would have got if he wasn’t announced and his music hit?! Wwe goes with the safe hey this isn’t whose coming make sure you tune in instead of you never know who will show up. Let people Not be excited and then have them say oh I can’t believe I missed that.

Same here. Nobody even cared what HBK or Triple H had to say because they aired a graphic literally 5 minutes earlier saying Road Dogg, Billy and X-Pac were all going to be there, so everyone was just sitting there and waiting for them to finish their schtick until they brought the others out. It's honestly like the writers had zero communication with the graphics department when they put that segment together.

Advertise like one maybe 2, have the rest show up randomly. Get the oh man I remember him pop. Like if they showed Million Dollar Man then had Virgil next to him. People would have popped. Why they didn’t include him I don’t know. I don’t think he’s on bad terms or anything

I was really letdown by Taker's appearance and the fact that Austin didn't get any mic time. Those were really the only two appearances I was looking forward to. Undertaker's promo was just confusing, and I thought the purpose of him being there was to begin the build to a Mania match. Sadly, it doesn't look like that's going to happen now, so the fact that they'd have him even cut a promo and get people's hopes up was dumb. Also, it would've been a lot better if they didn't advertise every single legend ahead of time if they had no surprises planned. Like, they really needed to advertise that Chris Jericho was going to be on the show when all they had him do was be in a two-minute skit backstage? Or advertise Christian just for him to come out and introduce Rollins and Jordan? Meh, whatever. Seeing Austin was awesome, the other 2 hours and 40 minutes was a bore. At least it's not like there was anything else on tonight that I missed over this. Exactly how I felt. I should have known better not to have such high expectations for this Raw.

Oh. That’s what that was supposed to be? Yeah he said a bunch of stuff and then at the end said something along the liens of “to all my fallen brothers, Rest In Peace” Upon a second watch, it seemed more like a subtle retirement. He namechecked Austin, Foley, and Kane; all of whom are still alive. It sounded more like. "I've conquered all, and now you don't have me to deal with anymore."

I don’t know what the his promo was about. He just kind of rambled and didn’t make a ton of sense. To me anyway.

I legitimately don't know if I've ever heard someone other than Charlie Brown use "good grief." Unless they were quoting Charlie Brown. What.. was.. that..?

Revival got buried. I love Gallows and Anderson, but that squash match wasn't needed at all.

Reason being?? Ted is signed to legends deal. The rest aren't. Therefore, the rest aren't needed there for that show. So we get the same old crap. DX, Godfather, APA, Ted DiBiase. The fact that IRS, Sgt. Slaughter, Jim Duggan and Rikishi weren't there is actually kind of shocking!

Raw 25 was a letdown. It felt so uninspired. What a thrown together piece of crap it was.

I didn’t hate the show, however - no Hitman or Goldberg was a shame. I really thought they would of had some surprise legends. I guess in my heart or hearts I was hoping Hulk was coming back. Maybe the Rock. Hope they are saving it for Maina or something. SCSA looked in awesome shape - Balor looked like he belonged in the ring with DX. Maybe his push back to the top is coming soon.

Show was really cool live. Arena booed a lot because Manhattan Center audio kept cutting out.

People won’t admit it, but WWE has some big future stars in Strowman, Elias, and Jason Jordan. I admit it. I also admit that they'll probably them up, like all their other potential future bright stars. Very possible.
