Rate this week's exciting adventure of Monday Night Raw... and don't forget to tune in next week, same Raw time, same Raw channel....

Opening

Kurt Angle came to the ring to talk about the matches tonight and the anniversary of his gold medal win. Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar came out and accused Angle of creating the fatal four way as a method to take the belt off Lesnar but insisted Lesnar would retain.

The Hardy Boyz vs The Club

The Hardys won by pin fall.

Backstage

Dean Ambrose was asked if he and Seth Rollins were back together. Rollins showed up and Ambrose told him that he still didn't trust him. Later Cesaro and Sheamus approached Rollins and told him he was all alone and he challenged them to a match.

Akira Tozawa, Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann vs Tony Nese, Ari Devari and

Cedric Alexander, Rich Swann and Tozawa won by pin fall.

Miz TV with Jason Jordan

After some general disagreement, Miz asked Jason Jordan to let him guide his career and offered to let him join the Miztourage. Jordan declined by Miz kept trying to sell him on it and told Jordan he needed Miz's help. Jordan declined again. Miz asked him why he would need the help of the IC champion when his father was the General Manager and could hand him everything. The two bickered over this point. Jordan made it clear he wanted no association with Miz. He then began insulting Kurt Angle. Jordan told him to not insult Kurt Angle again or Miz will regret it. Miz pushed the Miztourage away and tried to attack Jordan but Jordan grabbed him and threw him into the Miztourage before leaving the ring.

Sheamus vs Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins beat Sheamus by pin fall and then was attacked by him and Cesaro. The crowd chanted for Ambrose while Sheamus and Cesaro left the ring... but they came back in and finally Ambrose came out to help. However he was beaten down as well.


Bray Wyatt Promo

Bray Wyatt gave a typical Wyatt promo about Balor and Balor appeared in the ring with his back turned to Wyatt. When Wyatt went to attack him, Balor beat him down.

Braun Strowman vs Samoa Joe vs Roman Reigns

Roman Reins won by pin fall.

Elias vs Kalisto

Elias won by pin fall.

Backstage

Dean Ambrose blamed Seth Rollins for the beat down, saying he put himself in a position in which he would get beaten down and that Ambrose would have to come and help or otherwise look like a jerk and get beaten down himself. He walked off and Rollins looked sad :(

Bayley vs Nia Jax

Bayley won by count out when Alexa Bliss interfered.

Big Cass vs Big Show


Big Cass won by DQ when Enzo interfered but Cass was knocked out by Show.

A 6. Not too great but not horrible. The triple threat was good, the Heyman/Angle/Lesnar promo was good. A couple other good spots but nothing to jump up and down about.

Now before I begin I just want to address a particular issue. It has come to my attention
that a certain hashtag I have been typing for the better part of this year has been annoying
some other forum members.

Well...I've decided to move on from that hashtag and have come up with a new way of expressing
my choice of ignoring a certain WWE performer.

I hope all those concerned accept my new method of freely expressing my opinion...by simply not
having one.

~ Okay RAW...let me have a look...

~ So...Heyman has just confirmed that Brock is leaving after to Summerslam to fight in the UFC right?

Well...I can't say I'll miss Brock or Heyman...so yeah...I look forward to a new Universal Champion
at Summerslam...no matter who it is.

~ Remember when most fans were excited about Gallows & Anderson signing with the WWE? It seems
like such a long time ago now.

I do like the Revival...they always provide that spark of old school energy when they appear.

~ The 2/3 of the Shield Reunion continues...and I will admit its nice to see Seth & Dean getting
some kind of story. I like that.

~ And the build to Rollins/Ambrose vs. Cesaro/Sheamus at SummerSlam begins...

~ And now we have a 6 man cruiserweight tag match...and Neville isn't involved...so...SKIP!!!

~ No sign of Emma during the MizTV segment...so...SKIP!!! (Maryse looks stunning as always)

~ And the build to Rollins/Ambrose vs. Cesaro/Sheamus at SummerSlam continues...

~ Samoa Joe is awesome...give him the Universal title at SummerSlam please.

~ I was Bray Wyatt's biggest fan...but I no longer care anymore. They just gave him the world
title so he could drop it as a big fuck you to the audience and the fans who respect him as a
performer.

I really like Wyatt & Balor...but unless they eventually team up...I don't care about this feud.

~ Strowman really has been great since the brand split...and apart from his loss at Fastlane
he's been booked perfectly. Even I eventually jumped on the Strowman bandwagon.

~ N/A...

~ The Cass/Big Show/Enzo feud seems played out already. I'm more curious about where Cass is
going after this feud is over.

SmackDown perhaps?

~ Oh cool...the Drifter is wrestling someone besides Finn Balor...and its Kalisto...that guy
I like but no one else does...Cool!

And the Drifter gets the win...Nice.

~ Alexa Bliss can shut the fuck up! and Bayley vs. Nia Jax...again...Ugh...this will be the 5th time
they have had a one on one match on RAW this year...shame there is no other heel on the roster
Bayley could fight.

Except may-be...Oh I don't know...how about EMMA!!!

13102594_528004197379012_1647729613_n.jpg


"Ready and Waiting...for nothing..."


~ Man...Rollins & Ambrose sure are getting a lot of screen time...I'm not complaining...just
making an observation.

~ And Bayley vs. Nia...and...blah, blah, blah...they can both fuck off because I honestly don't care.

Look...I'm just fan and its easy for me to sit here and type out everything I think is wrong
with the WWE and their booking choices...but...

From the Superstar Shake-up to Extreme Rules the WWE booked Bayley as a pathetic idiot who
was defeated cleanly twice by Alexa Bliss. Then at Great Balls of Fire you have Alexa Bliss literally
run away from Sasha to keep her title.

You booked Bayley as a fucking blueberry who constantly had her face punched in...I haven't forgotten
that...nor could I ever thanks to that abomination of a "This is your life" segment.

Fans actually remember what has happened on your show WWE...I know I do.

So someone explain to me why the WWE has decided that Alexa vs. Bayley for the third time is a
better booking option than Alexa vs. Sasha in a falls count anywhere match at SummerSlam.

The only way this will work is if Bayley absolutely destroys Alexa at Summerslam the same way
Alexa destroyed her at Payback/Extreme Rules...and I doubt the WWE is going to go through with
that booking idea.

May-be this "Total Divas Conspiracy" idea does hold some water?

~ Big Cass vs. Big Show...why this is the main event I have no idea...Oh wait...I know why it
is. Its because the WWE knows the ratings drop off for the third hour so they put the awesome
triple threat match on earlier so after that everyone can then turn off their televisions and they
don't give a fuck.

Paul Heyman said if you don't like the 3 hour RAW then don't watch it...so you can't blame fans
for taking his advice and turning off their TVs.

You know WWE...may-be if RAW wasn't so long...your fans and viewers would be more inclined to
watch the entire show.

Cass won by DQ...but I don't care...

~ No Sasha Banks, No Emma, No Mickie James, No Dana Brooke and No Alicia Fox...and I have no
fucking interest.

And I'm Done...

How was that? No one can complain if I simply don't acknowledge the issue right?

How long have you been on the internet? It consists of three things only... 49% complaining, 49% porn and 2% complaining about porn. Of course people can still find a way to complain :)

Yeah...I guess you make a valid point...

Speaking of weird porn...I found "Aeromorphs"
the other day.

Yes everyone...go ahead and google that word...
and then try to understand humanity.

I think this shows how quickly a thread can be thrown off the rails.

*Tempted to want to Google it*
I will listen to @Jacob Fox , and I WILL NOT Google it.

Think of it as Pandora's Box. Sure, you're curious. Sure, you want to know. And Sure, the moment you look at it you wish you never opened the dang box :)
