Ambrose/Rollins feud is going to be a much stronger version of how Cody took his loss to Sandow last year at MITB.. and I LIKE IT aLOT!

I enjoyed pretty much everything except Bo's segment, the SummerRae/Ziggler thing, and the main event (not including the ending).

There was enough good stuff to get me to watch the show despite Cena being champion (although I'll be skipping his segments for sure).

What an enjoyable show it was! Sure, it had some of the 'meh' moments, but overall, it was fun.

Like I said earlier, the opening segment with Cena/HHH rap talking was hilarious. And booo for Cena being on the cover for WWE 2K15, it should've been DBry!

Ambrose cut a damn good promo. It's gonna be so good seeing more and more of his feud with Rollins!

A babyface Swagger? Yes, please! It'd be cool if he turns out to be the first to defeat Rusev.

Sandow impersonating Vince was awesome, until Stephanie and then Khali showed up and messed everything.

The 'Hollywood' Miz came back and turned heel. Finally, something good for him. Being heel fits him better.
Shit, then I went crazy when I heard Jericho's music! It's great to see him back, I hope he sticks around...
So, why did the Wyatts go after Y2J? Could it be that Y2J's back only to put Bray over?
What I'd really want for Jericho is to go for the WWE-WHC (somewhere down the road). It'd be so cool. Him saying something like 'There's all this talk about the Undisputed Championship and yet nobody's mentioned me, well I was the first to win it! And I am here to claim what's rightfully mine!'

Btw... Seeing #Naomi'sCameronandNikkistitsandasses was good. :D

Anyways, the whole Ziggler/Fandango segment was pretty meh, just like Bo's.

AJ - The Divas' Division and Champ is back! I was fuckin' glad to see that! Always loved AJ! Never really got into Paige, though.

Reigns/Cena vs Kane/Orton wasn't bad, it got better when the DQ occured and the fight broke out. Too bad Rollins didn't cash in, I knew he wouldn't, I guess we're gonna have to wait a helluva lot longer. But I sincerely hope it'll be happening. Seth being the WWE-WHC would be great, but then Seth vs Bryan for the WWE-WHC, that would be beyond awesome!

So, it's Fatal 4 Way for the WWE-WHC at Battleground and a Battle Royal for the IC title. Seems alright.

I've just seen the Jack Swagger face turn, and the crowd popping for Swagger was awesome. They need to really play this out, Swagger can get a pin on Rusev leading into Battleground, but Rusev injures him and goes for Sheamus' US title. Swagger helps Sheamus and we get a triple threat elimination match, with Swagger injured again at the hands of Rusev but Sheamus is able to retain. Swagger then wins the title, drops it to Rusev at Summerslam but then wins it back, when we get a new Real American member. Swagger can then drop it back to Sheamus as Rusev goes for a new opponent with the Real Americans reformed and going for the tag titles, which by now could - and should - be in the hands of The Wyatt Family.

7 out of ten.

Enjoyed it. Nothing awful, nothing fantastic/legendary.

Best on the show was Rollins vs RVD.

Not even the Jericho return?
Jericho's return was great. But not fantastic or legendary. I enjoyed it just as much as the next Jericho fan. But it wasn't a shocker.

It was a good RAW, which was surprising!

+Hyped for Fatal 4 Way
+Ambrose and Rollins is entertaining
+Jericho returns
+More Stardust action
+AJ returns

-Swagger's gonna Job to Rusev (seriously bums me out)
-Paige was literally a place holder champion
-CM Punk won't return and AJ's matches will be filled with CM Punk chants
-No Heath Slater or Sin Cara

She will almost certainly win the championship right back, probably at Summerslam. The loss here was just to make her look human and vulnerable after having a long string of victories since winning the title from AJ back in April.

As for Raw, fantastic show imo. Rollins/RVD delivered and I'm digging the Ambrose/Rollins rivalry, AJ's return and championship win was a pleasant surprise as was Jericho's comeback (although I sort of called the latter), the Cena/Authority promo wasn't too bad, seeing Swagger get a huge positive reaction to showing Rusev up was nice, etc. It's always a good sign when the crowd chants "This is awesome!" twice in one night.

gave it a big 10, just for the marking moments i hit, swags and zeb giving 'maybe' face turn, marked like a little girl when Jehricho turned up, and marked for aj as well (even though not a fan made it interesting for sure)
