    I thought it was corny. New Day are usually great and get it done in the ring.

    ZAYn/Owens, Charlotte/Bayley, Sheamus/Cesaro, Rollins/Jericho all delivered.
    I hope Cesaro pulls off 4 in a row and challenges KO. Shows getting things rolling finally since the draft. Rollins & Reigns v Triple H & his NXT guys

    Cruiserweights are going to come in and help make the show with more of the stupid filler going away. This is the most athletic and creative roster in WWE's history. RAW is quite easily capable of 5-6 entertaining back and forth matches week in and week out.

    Cruiserweight singles match
    Cruiserweight 6-Man Tag
    Anything with Charlotte, Sasha, Bayley
    On most nights anything with New Day, Certified G's, The Club

    Pull together 1-2 more matches with Rollins, Owens, Zayn, Cesaro, Rusev, Reigns, Sheamus, Jericho, Balor, Lesnar, etc

    I've only watched through the Rollins/Jericho match so far. Can't speak on the rest of the show.

    Jericho has been so much better on the mic than in the ring during this latest stint. Kills me to say it because I love the guy. Having said that, last night's match was really good. Maybe that says more about Seth than Y2J.

    Just got around to watching the CWC from this last week, that Ibushi/Brian Kendrick match was insane. Never thought I would see a burning hammer in a WWE ring.

    fair, I was just curious which wrestlers would you choose as someone who hasn't followed WWE in years. I remember when I was hiatus for a bit from it, when I saw Sheamus for the first time, my first reaction was "who the hell is the Irish Chase Budinger looking guy". Had to have Kam explain who the Shield was, and getting my cousins reaction to seeing Rusev for the first time was priceless.

    Fwiw, give last week's Raw Main Event a chance with the Fatal 4 Way Elimination match if you wanted action. It was probably one of the best ending of Raw in the past 5+ years

    Agreed, Reks' drops likes a fireman's carry. Kobashi and Kendrick's is like a piledriver.

    I don't disagree

    But technically the same move - at least in name - and in a WWE ring

    I had to play devils advocate

    I agree with the crowd at the CWC, bull****, Rich Swann should have went over.

    Ambrose put in a good match tonight finally.

    AJ Styles is the best wrestler on earth.

    Your first sentence is because of your second sentence.

    Good PPV overall. Well done, SD.

    Amazing main event. Biggest moment of Styles' career

    Thought the rest of the show was pretty bland.

    I don't know how close they were to botching the Styles Clash but it made it more realistic, and that apron catapult into the ringpost looked real and amazing.

    Who's the bigger winner? AJ Styles getting the title, or that NXT guy that gets to go home to Harley Quinn Alexa Bliss? What an entrance.

    Ambrose beat the **** out of AJ though. He knew he was going to lose the title. Because it was written that way of course. AJ can take a mutha****** punishment. Ya'll see when Ambrose planted his double kick and kicked him out of the ring so hard that AJ looked like he got the wind knocked out of him?
