Raw Reax - 4/29/19

Read on for my thoughts on last night's Raw.
- Moment of Bliss:
I like the idea of each brand getting four participants.

I have a bad feeling Baron's going to win.

And it's the everyone argues segment.

Ha. I used to think Ricochet was just a highlight reel, too.

Ha. I can't say I didn't expect a tag team match to break out.

- Braun/Ricochet vs. Baron/Drew:
Fun work so far.

It's amazing to see someone with Ricochet's abilities in there with Baron Corbin.

I'm impressed with Drew and Ricochet as usual.

Pretty fun.

- Club moved to SDL:
The Shakeup's going to keep on going, it looks like. So much for them not being used on TV!

- Usos vs. Club:
I like this so far.

I bet Gallows and Anderson are glad to be in action on TV.

Solid work here.

Good work. Definitely the ending I expected, but I'm fine with that.

- Post-match:
Oh yeah that's what this show needed. A body hair gimmick.

It's almost like Vince is daring fans to tune out.

- MizTV:
Ohhhh man. I already miss Lio.

I mean, yeah, there was talk of Lashley beating Brock at one point, but obviously that didn't happen.

Miz being faux humble is great.

Poor Miz doesn't get to avenge his loss.

- Miz vs. Lashley:
I like this so far.

Oh. I guess the feud continues after all.

Man, Shane's just teaming with all the heels now, right?

- Post-match:
Shane McMahon, submission specialist.

Honestly I like Heel Shane, but I see the criticisms people have.

- Raiders vs. Kalisto/Gran:
I guess they're still the Viking Raiders for now.

Pretty fun beatdown.

- Post-match:
At least they're letting the team show their athleticism.

Cruiserweights BTFO.

- Another Moment of Bliss:
Wow the Raw's women's division is lacking with Dana being a serious contender.

HAHAHAHA you go, Alexa.

I liked that well enough.

- Fun House:
This is something else. 

I don't even know what to call this. It stands out, though. 

- Alexa vs. Naomi:
Haha Bliss having issues with her footwear.

Naomi's solid.

I feel like this is a rib on Alexa or something.

Crazy stuff.

- Mysterios interview:
Yeah Rey's been kind of limping along lately.

- Becky/Lacey:
I mean, yeah, after all Becky's been through, two title matches in one night isn't a stretch.

Becky's pretty good here.

Lacey's coming across like a star here.

Pretty good work.

- Hawkins/Ryder vs. Revival:
Solid work so far.

OK that headbutt finish would have been kind of funny. Looks like The Revival are back to where they were when they asked for their release.

- Miz interview:
Is he sure he wants to be trapped in there with The Most Dangerous Man in WWE???

- Zayn promo:
You know I'm starting to think these promos are Vince getting out his frustrations.

Haha people camping out for wrestlers at airports are a special kind of entitled.

I'm liking this side of him.

So when is someone going to come out and tell him to shut up?

I did like this.

- Joe interview:
That line about getting Dominic a mask had me dying.

I liked that.

- Joe vs. Rey:
Good work so far.

Haha that's one way to counter a submission.

Another 50/50 ending.

- Post-match:
Dominic's gonna get CHOKED.

- Contract signing:
AJ's still bland as a character.

Interesting idea of Seth being the next AJ.

I do like Seth wanting to be the first Seth.

There is something to be said about not beating your body up to be champion.

Good line about building vs. burning.

Note that Seth has beaten Brock and AJ hasn't.

Pretty fun, and I'm sure the match will be awesome, but I wonder how much of a feud this will be.

More wrestling coming up.
