Read on for my thoughts on last night's Raw.
- Elias promo:
Eh. Pretty much the same thing as always.
- Elias vs. Lashley:
Silly, as expected with the gimmick.
I'm glad Lio can show his athleticism.
Fun for what it is.
I like some occasional weapons silliness.
That was good!
- Post-match:
I hope the whole episode isn't this goofy.
- Slater promo:
There's definite potential in a Slater/Rhyno feud.
- Roode/Gable vs. Revival:
Ahhhh good to see these names show what they can do.
Great to see these teams get some time in the spotlight.
That was nice!
- Dolph promo:
Cringe as always.
- McIntyre promo:
I like this direction. Drew feels like a boss.
Damn. I'd be down for Drew vs. Braun for the Universal Title at WrestleMania, but I don't see it happening.
- Dolph vs. Finn vs. McIntyre:
Smooth stuff for her.
Drew's got a lot going for him.
Three of the hardest in-ring workers in WWE.
Good work. The right person lost.
- Post-match:
The Rumble build continues.
- Santa Vince:
AHHHHHHHH It will be cool to see Cena again.
AND Women's Tag Team Champions???? That's fresh.
Dolph vs. Drew should be awesome, too!
- Mickie/Alicia/Dana vs. Sasha/Bayley/Ember:
Mickie vs. Moon is fun.
Nice work so far.
Good work! Sasha and Bayley are an obvious pick for that new women's tag title.
- Post-match:
OH MY THAT'S UNCALLED FOR!! These three could use something fresh, too. I'd like to see them feud with the former Absolution coming out of the Rumble. Obviously Paige can't take a bump, but they could still use her.
- Heyman/Braun:
As much as everyone loves Paul, I wouldn't mind something fresh as far as he's concerned. Since we're talking about new directions and all.
Ehhhh. Heyman delivered, but this feud feels run into the ground. How is this opportunity going to be different for Braun?
- Natalya interview:
LOL Natalya training Ronda.
Natalya was fighting for women's titles in WWE ten years ago. There's only so much more to do with her as a character. She's an important worker, though.
- Breeze with Santa:
I'm dead.
- Ronda vs. Natalya:
This is smooth. I like it.
I like this having a different vibe from an intense feud. It's about the better athlete.
I LOVE submission wrestling. This is fun.
- Post-match:
Pretty good work.
- Ambrose promo:
Blahhhhh.
- Slater vs. Jinder:
Well that was weird.
- Post-match:
Fun enough.
- More B-Team:
Silly, but fun.
- Seth interview:
Kind of bland, honestly.
- More Christmas stuff:
Fine enough.
- Rollins vs. Corbin:
Seth working circles around Corbin here.
Exciting stuff from Seth.
Mostly good work.
Nice ending.
More wrestling coming up.
