Rate Raw and leave a comment or two to let us know what you thought of the show!


Opening

Stephanie McMahon in the ring. Then, she is joined by Becky Lynch with a knee injury. Steph talks Becky up, but tells her she cannot compete unless she sees a doctor. Becky doesn't want to and Steph tells her that she cannot clear her without a doctor. It goes further and Steph tells her if she does not see a doctor, she will get suspended. Becky refuses, Steph suspends her and Becky attacks Steph, who gets away when officials help her.

Angle comes out, talks about his great career but claims his three I's have become three D instead: Doubt, defeat and depression. He claims his greatest opponent has been father time since he has been losing badly.

Baron Corbin and Drew McIntyre come out. They taunt Angle. They appear about to gang up on Angle, but are interrupted by Braun Strowman. Angle knocked Corbin out of the ring, Strowman knocked McIntyre out and then chased Corbin, and the two heels escaped into the crowd. The announcers claimed that Angle was about to retire but didn't get the chance.

I give it a mild 5 out of 10, nothing interesting.

Becky is "suspended" until she gets her knee/leg injury looked at by the WWE doctors.

Only watched highlights. What was up with the Braun Strowmen getting disqualified finish? He was in the tag match but not the legal man and got DQd. Am I missing something?

Nope. You're not missing anything. Although technically the DQ is valid, I cannot remember the last time any illegal man was actually DQ'ed since double teaming is a part of tag team wrestling. It was stupid.

Becky Lynch not wanting to be seen by a doctor because she's been hurt by it before, is great storytelling. The wayRonda is being presented is also great. So far the build to the Wrestlemania main event is good.

No bad booking on this show. Some entertaining and interesting moments. Then again I can find a rock interesting.
[doublepost=1549357523][/doublepost]If I never knew who EC3 I would be watching this thinking who is this guy. Why am I cheering for the top 1 percent?

Who even is this guy?

this is like their 500th time trying to recreate the Stone Cold/McMahon dynamic and even though it always gets a pop, it never does anything for the long haul imo. I guess it's like a thing every upper card wrestler in WWE has to go through at some point.

Now that Becky's suspended tho, they're gonna be able to introduce Charlotte into the match before Lynch makes a dramatic return. Makes a lot of sense. I actually thought they were gonna do the whole Benoit/HHH/HBK deal with Charlotte attacking them during their contract signing and adding her name to the match by signing it before Becky does

If I never knew who EC3 I would be watching this thinking who is this guy?
and where are EC1 and 2?

A 5 show that gets a 6 rating because of Jeff Jarrett wrestling. If he had won, it would have been a 10. (not really, probably a 7)

I always disliked Jeff Jarrett and now I'm starting to dislike Road Dogg more too. I didn't like the Ronda Rousey stuff either and most the matches were boring. Not looking very good for RAW on the road to Wrestlemania so far.

I called it! I said during the rumble ld that the leg of Becky would be " injured " and that way they would throw Charlotte into the match. Now I'm just going to casually post this promo from a month ago.



They're still not listening, the wrestlers continue to be suffocated, nobody's being empowered. And WWE wonders why AEW are getting so much hype behind it.

My deaf blind pet worm called that. Why not try calling something that isn't totally obvious

U know Raw is bad when the highlight of the night is The Revival winning the tag titles. I guess all it takes to win a title anymore is threatening to quit WWE.

Im calling it now, EC3 is going to be a jobber, that guy has NO CHANCE IN HELLLLL getting over.

Also the crowd was so dead tonight. Literally one of the most silent crowds ive ever seen. Cant really blame them but god damn

Laughing at the fools that thought there's any chance of Becky v. Ronda 1 on 1.. Saw this coming a mile away

They're not doing a women's WrestleMania main-event without Charlotte.
