One, and that's rounded up.
I keep harping on this, but something's got to be done about the increasingly broken face/heel system. It's not like blurring the lines makes the characters have greater depth, or makes the writing more interesting -- it's just a nonsensical Russo-esque mess.
I don't know if this is a ripple effect from their stubborn decision to keep Reigns a babyface in defiance of fan reaction or what, but it needs to go away ASAP.

1/10.
Just, nah bruh. This isn't how you do it at all. This episode is everything that I hate about wrestling. Sure, we might have had 1 good match but that's all it had.

Didn't watch most of it. Saw the first hour or so and saw no Finn Balor though so I liked it. Sounds like the show went off a cliff though but thank god, The Big Dog is here to save the Universal title after that vanilla midget Balor tainted it. You happened to watch the show perfectly. That was amazing timing.

-No Triple H to explain his actions from last week.
-An opening segment that started off fine before quickly devolving into LOUD NOISES!
-Shining Stars beat Enzo & Cass
-The continuing saga of Who-Gives-A-f*** between Darren and Titus
-A fake-out retirement segment NOT performed by Mark Henry
-I repeat: Shining Stars beat Enzo & Cass
-A ""comedy""* segment so bad my love for comedy actually died a little
(*The extra quotation marks around the word comedy are still not enough to show the proper amount of sarcasm that I'm trying to give it.)
-Roman Reigns stands tall once again. With the possibility (HA!) of being in another title match at CoC.
-Couldn't even get our weekly dose of jobber comedy from Braun's opponent this time, because it was Sin Cara being interviewed and not Kalisto
-THE COLDEST PUERTO RICANS IN HISTORY BEAT THE MOST OVER TEAM ON RAW!
-Even Charlotte and Bayley wasn't that great. Half the match felt like they were both moving in slow motion.
-And no matter how good their matches might be, I don't ever need to see Zayn and Owens fight again. Let Sami have an actual feud with someone else for once.
Final Score: f*** This Show/10

I watched about forty five minutes of it total, so I'll give it a two since it didn't sustain my interest for even a third of the time.

Shit.
Horrible shit. Same garbage every week it seems like.
Chris Jericho. Period.
Braun Strowman bullshit.
Nia Jax stupidity.
Boring ass women's match with Charlotte boring me to tears.
Sheamus and Cesaro in perhaps the most pointless feud ever.
Owens Vs Zayn for the 5,000,000,000th time which I never wanted to see the first time.
Festus and the other nobody doing stupid unfunny shit against the New Day.
Roman Reigns coming out to an embarrassing reaction and ending the show with said reaction.
This is a new era?...can we go back to a previous one please? This shit is horrid.

Didn't watch, seems like it was a real barnstormer of a show this week, shame I missed this excellent 3 hour long professional wrestling program.

So roman reigns match it is If by Roman Reigns you meant to type Blaine Gabbert, then yes. As a Niners fan, between my hopes for the upcoming season and this current level of Raw...it's honestly a toss-up.

Yeah ever since a few weeks back I seem to have acquired a few contrarian trolls, especially on the really bad RAWs, voting ten to piss people off, make the poll seem meaningless, or screw up the average rating. Even though we could just not include their votes. The most influential time they did it, it didn't even change the average rating at all anyway honestly

I voted 5. Mainly because I was able to fast forward through a lot of it. Enzo and Cass jumped the shark weeks ago so they're automatic FF. Gallows and Anderson and New Day stuff has never been funny at all. Automatic FF.
The matches though I did like. Jericho is money. Owens did fine on his first Raw as champ and needed a solid win. Rollins slow face turn is really fun to watch if they pull the trigger.
Highlight of the show? Gallagher AND Tozawa!!!!!!
Them and the matches make it a 5. Had I not been able to fast foward it would be a lot lower.

5. The opening with Mick and Steph, the KO Show Celebration feat. Seth Rollins, Jericho v. Rollins, the Sasha segment, Bayley v. Charlotte and the Dana follow up and the main event until Roman showed up were all fun. Now, saying all that it should be higher but the bad was so damned bad it did drag the show down some. Honestly not being in the RAW thread makes it better. Ya hear something sucks so much it becomes true even if you didn't think so to start. Valid point, but I was away from the forum when Enzo gave birth, and that segment made me go berserk. I gave it a 1/10 because of what I had seen and then reading a babyface doing a heel tactic followed by Reigns on top... yikes! I'll make sure Clash of Champions is my last RAW viewing for a while. I actually need the rest for work & I hate going to bed frustrated.

I missed half of it, but what I saw was abysmal. The only thing saving this from a 1 is the fact the arena was singing along to Sami's music.

Fellow fans. I implore you to not whore out your 1 votes like this.
This Raw was bad. It was dull. It was boring. The final two hours felt like the "death spot" of your typical Raw just extended out for a much longer period of time.
That said, I cannot give it a "1" rating.
I reserve that for episodes that are not only bad, but truly feature something irredeemable such as exploiting someone's death, or equating a national tragedy to your father's steroid scandal etc...
This was just a bad wrestling show of the variety of which we have seen plenty of times before, and would not even come close to cracking the all time top ten IMHO.
2/10.
