I just don't get this company. Braun is the sort of guy they love with his size, he was slowly built and got over organically (unlike the force feeding of Reigns), he's a face that gets face reactions, appeals to all demographics. Why not put the rocketship on him? He really could be the next megastar and they're blowing it.

Hopefully Braun does get pushed and wins the title soon so the fans can start booing him too. He was at his best during his feud with Roman and it has been downhill from there. It’s the same thing from him every week. And his move set is horrendous; what is it, like 3 moves and a weak finisher?

Jericho · 05-07-2018, 08:02 PM

Hoping Ember Moon wins this one. She's just a freak athletically in there.

Is

Spot on.

As an aside: I don't see why people think Alexa is so terrible in the ring. I know she's not great, but I don't think she's as bad as people make her out to be. Carmella on the other hand...*cringe*

fazzle · 05-07-2018, 08:53 PM

Alexa's biggest problem (besides her being booked as a dominant badass when she should be a cowardly heel) is that she just looks afraid when she wrestles. She constantly sells way too quickly so that she doesn't actually get popped, which just makes her opponent's offense look bad.

cdub6238 · 05-07-2018, 09:26 PM

this has been a pretty awful RAW show imo...

not knocking Moon as a wrestler..but i guess they just dumped Asuka to SD, s time to give the next NXT woman call up a push...not sure how she DOESNT win the belt

Jinder Mahal..just blows..period, he was never over and will never be over

Roode/Elias could be something

what the hell do they see in Mojo, besides being a buddy of Gronk...hes awful on the mic and in the ring...

and yay another night with Reigns in the ME..hope he doesnt lose!

also..LMFAO at is promo earlier where he said hes tired of management not thinking hes championship material...i want some of whatever hes been on if he thinks his 3-4 year constant push= they dont think hes championship material lol

cdub6238 · 05-07-2018, 09:30 PM

lmfao..

Mojo out of position not once..but TWICE on the ending of that match...just..putrid

Jedi1823 · 05-07-2018, 10:12 PM

Roman vs Jinder is coming, are you ready for a Singh brother to be the most popular person involved with the match?

yeah..nobody can get Reigns over...put him against the least liked wrestler and lets see if that works..Round #16789...

or..we get more this is boring chants..or somehow Jinder comes out ahead, or Singh when he gets involved..

makes sense #wwelogic

John Morrison likely on the next Survivor season

Newbs · 05-07-2018, 11:18 PM

Jinder v Roman, yea, fans should love that.

And he's in at least one episode of Miz and Mrs., he may be in more.

Interesting points. Thanks.

Very true. Which makes the entire match look bad.

Raw and SD starting to suck quicker than the usual after WM. At least soon starts the summer angle

ThaReal1 · 05-08-2018, 08:13 PM

Just a thought. Is there anyone who needs a spark of a heel turn more like Becky Lynch on the roster? Could be fun

Mandy's getting pushed to the moon

mnvikingstwins · 05-08-2018, 11:56 PM

Not sure if they're breaking Sonya and Mandy up, but looks like IRL Sonya stole Seth Rollins' ex

Nyfancam01 · 05-09-2018, 10:39 AM

Everything they are doing is boring right now. Pretty awful stuff. I'm quickly losing interest in this.

Yep. Raw and SD are literally can miss TV. I'll just check /r/sc and watch the 3 interesting streamables. Mandy's entrance is fantastic though, they're going full sexual fantasy

Can't blame either of them though since they're both hot, not sure if Zahra was a switch hitter before or Sonya converted her

Jericho · 05-09-2018, 12:10 PM

Becky losing to Mandy? Damn Becky can never catch a break. Mandy is nowhere ready for the main roster. Bryan losing to Rusev is fine but the way he lost was kind of odd.

The problem with them turning Becky heel is that she's the most over female wrestler at live events. I've been to a few live Smackdown events and she consistently gets the loudest reactions, even on par with AJ Styles.
