There's been a real lack of quality control from WWE this year. Like, the most basic shit. Who wrote down "Nia Jax wrestles in a long main event" and assumed that would be a good ending to your television show? It's just doing stuff because you have an idea, not taking into account whether or not that idea is any f***ing good. Same thing is happening on Smackdown too.
They need an objective person backstage with some actual pull that can listen to this stuff and go, "yeah, that sucks, don't do that." You would hope Vince would be that voice but he's obviously on some other shit nowadays.

WWE now is just so blatantly a company that know they have no competition and can put out any old shit and they'll still get some viewers, it won't get better because it doesn't have to get better.

For the record, I enjoyed Raw. I loved everything but that crappy MizTV Segment. All of the matches even the short ones were solid and the women worked their asses off, especially Sasha & Nia.

Attended the show live and it was actually a lot of fun. Even the Ball segment was pretty funny. But I'm sure it looked terrible on TV.
Also I feel like the only reason Angle came out was to give him a pop for the night with the live crowd.

Let me just say that I've never been more embarrassed in my life to be a wrestling fan after last night.

Does anybody think on this show? Like, the story of "monster heel runs roughshod over four different people without breaking a sweat before somebody finally defeats her?" isn't bad on paper. There are three issues. 1. Nia is really f***ing bad 2. Nobody gives a f*** about most of this division, Nia included 3. Nia is really really REALLY f***ing bad. Know the limitations of your performer. In what world does a good booker put a Nia Jax in a lengthy match? It's times like this where I wish Heyman wasn't resigned to his duties as Professional Bork Shill. He's the one guy around they could bounce things off of that could point out your flaws in booking people. The man made freaking New Jack a fan favorite...I'm sure he could point out that booking a green as shit Nia Jax in a 30 minute match is doing no one any favors.
