I'll just echo what I said last night: I liked the music, but everything else... yeah. It was bad.

Honestly, when not around AJ the Club might be the single worst act in WWE right now. They aren't even good. The prototype examples of "it is in Japan so it is good" hyperbole. They are shit. I disagree. They're both solid in the ring, Anderson more so then Gallows, and both incredibly charismatic but are being squandered in some of the worst f***ing comedy WWE has written in years. It really feels like they had no f***ing clue what to do with them once they split from AJ.

They should ask for their releases after that.
WWE does not know what to do with them.

WWE is a place where booking may be awful but match quality is still crazy high. These guys haven't given one good match at all.

I honestly think the blame on The Club is misplaced because, obviously, it should not have been booked. They've been alright as comedy guys before in quick backstage segments.
But it's mostly a clear example of New Day dragging people down to their level. This feud should be SRS but since New Day never sell anything, we get this instead.

Lately I watch Raw in the condensed highlight form on youtube. Every show has been entertaining that way; when it's under twenty minutes. Even the comedy can be good since it doesn't drag, but even only a couple minutes of this segment was awful. It would've been ok if New Day were over the hill, like the Dudleys or something, but they're in their prime. Why would they be upset about being depicted as elderly? Who f***ing cares? And then to be mad enough to beat the actors up? Seemed out of character. Whoever wrote that or gave it the greenlight should be fired.

As bad as that was, I thought Jon Stewart at Summer slam this year was worse.

They beat the actors up because Fake Big E tried to attack real Big E.

The Club could be the worst casualties in the history of RAW writing. Listen to these dudes on any podcast and they're complete gold. Yet they have the worst segments every week. They can be really great, guys, please trust me.....guys? It could be a Vince Vaughn situation. Lots of Hollywood Personnel claim Vince Vaughn is the funniest actor ever behind the scenes but 95% of his movies tell a way different story

The Club should be on Smackdown beating ppl up. Let New Day have all the unfunny segments to themselves.

I don't understand what drove WWE to making The Club, who are two serious looking, bald, tattooed asskickers that we're meant to take seriously as having retired The Dudleyz and as a threat to most dominant tag champions in at least a decade, into comedians that aren't funny.
Like, I know WWE writes shitty comedy, and they often make bad choices of people to crack those jokes, but this may be one of the worst choices they've ever made.
I'm not being funny but 95% of the time I only see Raw as highlight videos on YouTube and I think this Club segment is the first one that I've skipped before the end in six months. I had literally no interest in anything they had to say, and this will continue until they feud with someone else.

What kills me is that they actually hyped up that segment a couple times like it would be something worth watching.

They need to stop being booked like comedians and start being booked like aggressive ass kickers.
I hate being an armchair booker, and I rarely do this, but man these comedy segments are awful. They aren't fun to watch at all. They aren't even comedy. The best thing that can happen to the Club is if they lose to the New Day then reinvent themselves.

That was brutally awful. Like in the Enos and Trump/Rosie type. I'd be stunned it got green lit except I can see Vince laughing maniacally at it.

The Club are naturally funny guys but it seems like anyone feuding with the New Day is trying to be forced into the mold of New Day.
