Nope.

The opener was great.

The six-man was a business as usual bore.

Too bad the camera work is still horseshit & headache inducing. 

Kevin Dunn needs fired. Or shot. One of the two.

I actually liked the camera work during the Braun/Lashley angle.  Looked quite atypical.

Don't know. Opening segment was great but yeah the dq leading to six man has been done to death.  Don't think that's unfair to say

[KawadaSmile]

Come on, dawgs: The War Raiders, which people complained weren't as heavily featured, got a win over New Day and Kofi was beat for the first time since the Gauntlet. While WWE ain't exactly redefining themselves, it's not like shit hasn't been done with a purpose.

[C.S.]

As critical as I was (and we all were) of the 24-7 Title, it has straight-up made Drake Maverick a star. 

[sek69]

Having Joe and Kofi running out without their theme music playing was different for WWE, seems like a lot of little changes so far.

[KawadaSmile]

Oh fuck it's the Street Profits 

[sek69]

Also did Drake marry Jasmine from Aladdin?

[Strummer]

Btw, Heyman did an interview today saying he no longer sees a use for authority figures in wrestling anymore.  It will be interesting if he can get that through to Vince.  We'll see I suppose

[fakeplastictrees]

We are approaching the nine o'clock hour and Raw has been a hit thus far. Drake Maverick and Ron Killings interactions, to no one's surprise, have been gold all night.

[Strummer]

Think Miz/Shane is finally getting blown off at Summerslam

[sek69]

Guess someone saw Private Party at Fyter Fest and decided the Street Profits need to be fast tracked.

Kofi losing was huge I agree.  And it def. was new blood being featured.  Just that the dq leading to six man has been done to death.  Hopefully they can think of new ways to set things up that's all.

 

fun fist hour of Raw

[Makai Club #1]

A great hour of TV, in my opinion. Keep it up, WWE. 

[Coffey]

I think they should get the title off of both Kofi & Seth. But I def. don't think Samoa Joe or Baron Corbin are viable right now. 

[C.S.]

Drew McIntyre's voice is a sleeping pill.

[KawadaSmile]

Man, I don't think I can blame WWE for not being able to make Drew Mc as over as they wished. Dude's a better looking Swagger at this point.

[KawadaSmile]

Can't believe WWE is making me pop for Mark Calaway

[Coffey]

Say what you want about old man 'Taker, the entrance is still cash.

[Makai Club #1]

Drew is so generic and bland on promos. Saying words slowly isn't personality. 

 

Taker though!!!

[Strummer]

Has anyone's stock fallen as greatly as Drew since the beginning of the year?  Remember late last year people were saying he had a shot at being "the guy"

[Coffey]

This promo is brutal.

That's what happens when you're constantly presented as someone else's bitch. 

Just now, Coffey said:

Yep. Even Undertaker nostalgia can't save this.  

[KawadaSmile]

The content is alright, as saying "your souls will suffer eternally in hell, you won't ever rest even in afterlife" is hard as fuck

but oh boy is Taker's delivery... spotty

[KawadaSmile]

Hey this promo's been shot nicely
