If this was AEW Goldberg would be over Interesting, considering the reason Vince is infusing all these big names back into the product...

Maybe Goldberg can march into NXT after SummerSlam and confront Riddle next lol.
For the little time we saw them, loved The Icconics as the tag team champions and sad to see them lose. But I am really happy for Nikki Cross to finally get a championship. I think they could do some good stuff with her and Bliss as champs and build up to a good feud between them.

Joe should have dragged Roman out of the car and locked in the Coquina Clutch.

Hey m still just sad I missed Alexa winning a title then spoiled it for myself without thinking

Hey m still just sad I missed Alexa winning a title then spoiled it for myself without thinking if it wasn't for the commercial breaks it would have meant more to me. I love alexa as much as the next guy but wwe has completely lost their sense of pacing when it comes to commercials. as soon as the iiconics got eliminated I knew alexa and nikki would win but by the time the finish came I hardly cared. hopefully you get more enjoyment from it man.

Though it wasn't as good as last week's episode, I had no issues with the show tonight.
As for Joe/Roman, there's a difference in wanting to beat someone up and wanting to see someone try to kill them. It's not Joe picked Roman up and carried him to the medical room and stayed by his side.

Goldberg gets way too much criticism for the Saudi match. He got knocked out and couldn't hit his stuff. That has nothing to do with his abilities, as limited as they are. When he first came back in 2016 he tripped attacking Rusev and could barely lift him up. He wasn't knocked out then. What about the time he jack hammered a 300+ pound Brock Lesnar multiple times?

HAHAHAHAHAHA
I'm sorry, but I can't help but laugh at Bliss & Cross being given the belts. Just when I thought those titles couldn't be devalued anymore, creative find another way and do it. The story was between the IIconics and the Kabuki Warriors, with Kairi & Asuka strongly looking like the next champions. Then they just completely forget that storyline, and crown a completely random team. I really detest random booking decisions made for shock value rather than logical storytelling. This just smacked of desperation, and shows how clueless creative are. I can only hope they were picked to be transitional champs, because Kairi & Asuka really should have been the next champions.

Yeah the only way I'm fine with this is if they split up Asuka and Kairi because they're going to be in Women's title matches. It legitimately bothers me what they're doing with Asuka. I said it at the time but it's jarring watching that four way to determine who faces Becky at Summerslam and realize she averages like one TV appearance every three weeks (and it feels like it's less than that). And somehow, she's still over.

OK, I don't know if it's because I've missed the last few episodes of Raw and not had to sit down for 3 hours straight, but catching up in YouTube clips at work, it really looks like things are looking up. I'm actually excited for Summerslam, and I've not even properly watched the shows leading up to it.

Pretty dismal build up for a big ppv. Last week's RAW was better.
