There's still a contingent of people who think the shield was broken up too soon, though they had a stellar 2 year run of looking strong. Cass still needs to get a better feel on the mic, it really seems like he's reading a teleprompter with his over-annunciation and pauses. I thought it was a shtick after the Vaudevillains took a shot at their accents but Cass is still doing it. He's got big time potential though, bigger than Diesel.
It's better than when he slowly runs into the opposite corner, bounces off the middle rope, then slowly runs back to give his opponent a clothesline. But I don't blame him; I blame his jeans. Dude needs to get some tights or at least some shorts. Jeans weren't made for performing athletic maneuvers.
Speaking of doing things to often anybody think Cesaros uppercuts are getting a little out of hand? Like on the match last night he legit threw about 50 uppercuts before even attempting another move.
Hahahha. I noticed that too. It was the last Live Raw show before the draft, might as well go overboard with the cocktails. Jack Daniels on deck!!!
Baron Corbin is the only real scratcher so far. Also kinda disappointed they're keeping Owens and Zayn together. Their fued obviously won't be over after Sunday.
I have little to no interest in the SD roster so far, they better get Cesaro and clean up with top NXT picks left. Nakamura/Joe, Alpha and Bayley
Definitely a letdown, though I don't know what I was expecting. Funny to see a TNA ad though. When DB was reluctantly drafting Miz, I know that feeling too well from fantasy football, and it's a sign of a bad draft.
Really? Ambrose Styles Cena Orton Wyatt That's solid top 5. Ziggler Miz Del Rio Kane Usos That's a really good group of mid cards, with guys like Miz, Ziggler able legitimately main event every now and down. I actually think they basically stacked Smack Down with bankable guys so people will watch while putting guys with high potential on RAW so they can reach it.
Raw gets exclusive rights to the Women's Title. Does that mean SD will bring back the Divas Title? I would like to see a few more championships be brought back like the Cruiserweight title for Raw and maybe the European and Hardcore (24/7) titles for Smackdown. This is what I think which titles should belong to Raw and Smackdown: Raw WWE Championship WWE Tag Team Championship U.S. Title Women's Title Cruiserweight Title Smackdown World Heavyweight Championship World Tag Team Championship Intercontinental Title Divas Title
Yes, really; think about it. Talking major singles men's names, SD has Ambrose, Styles, Cena, Orton, Wyatt, Miz, and Ziggler, and who else is even relevant after that??? Raw has Rollins, Reigns, KO, Zayn, Cesaro, Balor, Jericho, Lesnar, Rusev Not counting Miz and Ziggler as weekly consistent main-event wrestlers on SD and Lesnar who will never wrestle on Raw, Raw has an 8-5 advantage in main-event caliber competitors every week. I wanted some balance between the rosters. I have a very hard time thinking there is any of that. Hopefully some free agents can help boost the blue brand, or the guys can be booked and allowed to prosper. Do I even need to talk about "established" Tag Teams? I will anyway...Raw has New Day, Enzo and Cass, Gallows and Anderson, even the Dudley Boyz. SD has the Usos; I am glad to see the NXT flavor w/ teams on SD like American Alpha, Vaudevillians, Ascension, but their direction hangs on creative, who has a knack for dropping the ball very often. If SD had a separate head writer like Heyman (a trusted mind who had full control over SD booking) during SD's golden years when they were far and away superior to Raw, I would feel different, knowing that SD is in good hands. Since it appears that Vince will have final say over both shows, I don't feel good at all about this. Vince had that promo about the spirit of competition, but the deck is heavily stacked against SD. If rosters do stay like this, let's hope that SD has "diamonds in the rough". And AFAIK, I truly can't believe that all the talent really didn't know where they would end up until tonight. That's just my opinion though.
Both rosters are pretty loaded but I like RAWs more cause of all the top new guys. Zayn, Owens, Balor & Cesaro are top 7 guys on RAW with a real shot at being WWE Champion. Add Rusev to the Raw main Eventers New Day, Certified G's, The Club Charlotte, Sasha, Nia, Paige, Dana CWC final is rumored to be the crowning of the Cruiserweight Champ Neville, Kalisto, Sheamus, Jericho & Darren Young as the top mid-card guys SD Main Eventers: Ambrose, Styles (will be champion at some point), Cena, Orton, Del Rio, Corbin, Bray Tag: Alpha, Usos, Vaudevillains, Hype Bros Women: Becky, Natalya, Alexa, Carmella, Naomi Mid-Card: Miz, ZIGGLER, Crews, Wyatt Family (Rowand & Harper) I'd do this for SS Rollins v Reigns Ambrose v Bray Cena v Styles Lesnar v Orton #1 contender Fatal 4 Way Owens, Zayn, Balor, Cesaro Charlotte v Sasha New Day v The Club v Certified G's Miz v Corbin Alpha v Usos/Vaudevillains Becky/Nattie Rusev/
