Read on for my thoughts on last night's Raw.
- Seth/Becky/Lacey/Corbin:
I'm not a fan of these two being paired just because they're together off-screen, but I think they fit together well.
OK I'm liking this team.
Looks like we're in for a mixed tag.
OK this is a good extension of what we've seen previously.
That's a good match setup.
- Usos promo:
Does today's audience even know who the Little Rascals were??
- Tag team elimination match:
-- Bryan/Rowan/Revival vs. Usos/Xavier/Big E:
So which team comes to blows first?
I like this so far.
Kind of a quick victory over Bryan.
-- Revival vs. Usos/Xavier/Big E:
Solid enough.
-- Revival vs. Usos:
Pretty fun work with these two teams.
That was all good!
- Braun backstage:
Wow a tug of war. Does anyone do that after high school?
- MizTV:
Yeah I'd be thinking this was a setup for Miz to win.
Uggggggh I hate the "24/7 but not really" approach. Just say The A-Lister has security or something.
Oh joy bathroom humor.
Oooh I like that match idea.
Fun stuff. I'm fine with "24/7 but people are banned from ringside"
- Truth vs. Drake:
Hahaha poor Drake.
- Post-match:
More silliness. I'm not complaining, though.
- Baron/Lacey backstage:
I'll give this pairing a chance.
- Roman vs. Drew/Shane:
I like this so far.
Haha I like Shane's opportunism.
Whaaaaaaaaaaattttttttt. The hell is Taker doing here?
Admittedly a cool moment, but kind of a short-sighted one, since I don't think Taker's going to lose to Drew. There are a lot of other people who could have had this spotlight.
- Tug of War:
Paint-by-numbers, but it's whatever.
Well at least the action was good.
- AJ/Jose/Karl/Luke:
AJ vs. Ricochet should definitely be good.
Ohhhhhh Karl and Luke are just getting some spotlight before the Japan tour. That makes sense. I guess when July comes around they'll go back to the 24/7 Title hunt.
Not bad.
- Karl/Luke vs. Raiders:
Not bad at all.
Good energy in this one.
Good work!
- Alexa/Cross/Naomi/Natalya:
I like it.
They've done a good job with this angle.
- 24/7 shenanigans:
Heath Slater is holding gold in 2019.
Truth racking up title reigns!
AND CEDRIC ALEXANDER HAS HIS BIG MOMENT!!!!!!
EC3 ALSO GETTING A TITLE PUSH!!!!
Oh. Well. This is basically the R-Truth Invitational at this point.
- Ricochet interview:
That was pretty cool.
- Kofi/Sami/Owens:
Yeahhhh Sami and Kevin are getting worn out as characters.
Well at least that set something meaningful up.
- Kofi vs. Sami:
Nice work so far.
I liked the TIP counter.
This is solid!
Good enough work, although Sami is once again defanged.
- Kofi vs. Owens:
Ha. Fun for what it was.
- Post-match:
OH I LIKE THIS.
Definitely better than more Kofi vs. Dolph. Where do Sami and Kevin go next?
- Extreme Rules match announcement:
This definitely feels like "in case of emergency, ring gong" but at least it's somewhat fresh.
- Naomi vs. Alexa:
It's good to see Naomi in action again.
NAOMI YOU MONSTER.
Fine for the time it had.
- Post-match:
Haha I'm enjoying the Alexa/Nikki story, and I think they are, too.
- Alexa/Nikki vs. Naomi/Natalya:
It does feel different to not have action during commercial breaks.
Good action here.
Nice work!
- AJ vs. Ricochet:
Ohhhh maybe we're in for AJ feuding with Karl and Luke? That could be interesting.
Good work so far.
It's fun seeing the more experienced, traveled high-flyer in there with a guy who's building his own impressive resume.
I'm liking this a lot!
That was all good, but of course it sent the message the new U.S. Champion would have had a 24/7-length title reign if he was defending.
More wrestling coming up.
