Why did they take the original theme song for Sheamus away from him again?? That music now sounds so generic Exactly. He needs his old music back

In case anyone was wondering about tonight, Punk has confirmed on social media that it was a stunt/replica bracelet.
I feel like that might make some wrestling purists angry to reveal that it was, but also, there seemed to be a huge outcry in a short period of time over them breaking an actual fan's gift, so Punk posted a photo of himself wearing the real one, showing he still had it.
I'm guessing they've been using the replica this whole time, just in case.

If something a fan gave a wrestler (especially a cheap piece of plastic) was ever utilized in an on air story to the degree that the bracelet was and was destroyed along the way, why would anyone care? It's a dollar store piece of garbage not a priceless heirloom. People have spent more on a marker and paper to make a sign that wrestlers have taken and ripped in half. Nobody cries about it. They cheer about the fact that their sign was apart of the show.

Denver was HOT last night. A good crowd always makes the show better imo. Also no idea who was with Barrett in the announcers booth but I'll be glad if he stays. He has the perfect voice for the analytical side of wrestling. Reminds me of playing career mode on the old Madden games so I hope he works out. Rhea/Liv segment was good. The triple threat was nice, good seeing Ilja get his spot in the fatal-4-way too.
I am however, tired of the same build and match story being used for Punk/Drew in every match of their feud. Drew makes Punk bleed, does what he wants with him, they have a match. They get to the match and Drew plays angry Goliath to Punks puny David. First of all, the size difference is nowhere near great enough for that to be believable for me.
Of course, this is show business and there are only so many stories to tell plus it's all make believe so I can get past that bc it was fine the first time, kinda okay the second time but teetering on repetitive. Not to mention it should have been a collar match instead of a strap match. All the fun of being tied together without any of the "touch this corner" gimmick.
For clarity Im not saying the matches themselves were bad, just the big guy/small guy story they are repeatedly telling during it. Give me a real slobberknocker for the rubber match in a Hell in a Cell or Cage. I want to truly see them beat the piss out of each other. None of that "I got one move of offense in and now I have to fall over" nonsense.
I will say thank god the bracelet has been removed lol.
Fun RAW overall

Just watched the show, it was okay. I am not a big fan of this new commentator, he leaves too much silence hanging between moves. Calling one of Ilja's signature moves and the move that won him the match "a big shoulder" like, come on dawg. And he needs to find some more hype in his voice for things that warrant it, Michael Cole is a god at this, freaking out over big things happening. Happy that Ilja won, even though I know he will do all next week. Kairi Sane looked like a horror show at the end, christ. Judgement Day taking the L as usual. Getting fairly tired of the whole Rhea/Priest thing now, gotta be honest. All in all, think my internet did me a service by going out so I could fast forward through most of this RAW afterwards.

Oh and also, Sami Zayn for coming back. I knew there was a reason why I had enjoyed RAW lately and it was the lack of Sami Zayn.
