Why is it that each time The Miz has a chance of getting over on Smackdown, they draft him to RAW and kill all of his momentum?

Right choice to have him on Raw now. Smackdown is saturated. They got of to a good start it seems.

This show was just average. Another nxt call up was dumb. War Raiders do not need to be called up yet. They can easily stay in nxt for another year and put on great takeover matches. Be the most dominant team in nxt history.
WWE have so many tag teams it's unreal. Definitely don't need to unify the belts. Over 50 percent of the teams on Raw will be jobbers.

The Miz and Shane fued continuing on Raw is a good descion. Very entertaining fued that the stakes can only be raised.

Zayn had a great heel promo. Very interested to see where this goes. The crowd loving him was great.

Lars beating up all the legends is something. Good that he has something going for him straight away on the main roster.

AJ on Raw was brewing for quite some time now. I doubt that he will have the same success on Raw that he had on Smackdown. He is one of Vinces boys though.

Usos are the best tag team in the world. Only way is up for them.

TThe Becky Lynch stuff was just a bit boring. The idea that she has a target on her back because of her being two belts becky and that the overlooked and underrapreciated want to be the next Becky Lynch is good storytelling. So at least she has a story.

Almas on Raw can only be good thing for him. He has very little character so he may struggle. Balor vs Almas for the workhorse belt is a good programme for the rest of the summer.

This show was OK. Nothing major happened. 5 or a 6 out of 10. Not bad.

While I'm not in love with all of the picks, a lot of them were good ones. Naomi, AJ, and Usos for example. Don't get me wrong, Raw is a death sentence, but it'll open the door theoretically to new stuff

Theoretically

Also.... From Hanson and Rowe to Ivak and Erik.... What the absolute shit is that

 

[SWL]

not bad for Raw. AJ Styles, the Usos, a good showing by both Andrade & Lacey Evans, the Miz and the.. Viking Experience? For real, that's like the most bland name you could've ever come up with for them. If it's because of the word "War", then why not pull a usual main roster move and shorten it down to The Raiders or smth. The Viking Experience doesn't really roll off the tongue

 

[Phenomenal Blissfit]

Highlights for Raw was easily AJ Styles and MOB by far, falls short on everything else though.

 

[The Sheik]

Miz was a stupid move, keep him on Smackdown. Sami is a great heel, the Viking Experience is the dumbest name I've heard in the modern era. Kill the moment of Bliss bullshit and put Alexa in a storyline..

Pretty lackluster edition of RAW, like most Shakeup editions. 3/10

 

[Redboy123@]

The Miz is a big name with a lot of momentum. proof is in the pudding every week on tv. Might as well put a well developed character on Raw.

When SDL goes to FOX, Raw and SDL are going to be the exact same anyway.

 

[Snowman1]

It's a 3 hour show, they need as many people on it who can gobble up 30 minutes of TV time at a time.
Miz is one of those people, so is Sami
