[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

Last weeks RAW was the worst rated RAW since July 8th... this RAW actually felt worse.

[Chiral]

Rey Mysterio with ripped pants / 10

Seriously though that was bad. It feels like outside of Seth/Owens, AJ/Rey, and Becky/Charlotte/Asuka/Kairi, Raw has turned into like a Velocity level of importance show.

Also minus 901234589304582 points for that Street Profits segment.

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

This show's moronic.

[EZ: Brainy Bae]

RAW thread a solid 8-9/10

Show itself .... bad but fun IMO. Humberto and Andrade was a good little match too

[brettappedout (BLM)]

I thought it was pretty decent. Much better than last week, but boy howdy was that ending was f*** lol

I'm giving RAW a 6. I like the building of younger guys like Black, Murphy, Humberto, Andrade, AOP and Viking Raiders.

Andrade vs. Humberto was very good and Black vs. Tozawa was fun. Murphy's squash was good.

Black vs. Murphy at TLC is going to be awesome.

I was iffy of Seth's "reveal", but I really liked Seth's promo. It felt real. Like that's how he actually feels and that's always a good thing.

I don't hate Becky or Charlotte so them vs. Kabuki Warriors is going to rule at TLC. I like the story they told through they're 3 or 4 segment.

Kevin Owens character is on point right now. He feels like a star.

Of course the divorce segment was f***ing awful despite Rusev attempts trying to save it.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

I thought it was fine. Easy watch, but admittedly I came in after the first segment.

7.

[arrogantmodel]

The f***ed ending alone is worth a 10. But no...the show, as usual, was a piss soaked bag of vomit.

Yeah, you gotta start SOMEWHERE in building these people up. They aren't going to be top-level stars by instant f***ing magic.

[pottsy87]

It was an enjoyable watch for me. Ending wasn't great, but that's live TV.

Exactly. People want everyone to be a star now now now. That's not going to happen. This where I think Heyman has done a good job.

[dbrussel]

5 cause at least something happened on this show. Good or bad but something

I think the main issue I see read and understand(I haven't kept up with everything so correct me if i'm wrong)

Is that there is no story or flow to these builds.They win which is a good start.

But for how many months Black has been in a closet? How many Jobbers has Raiders squashed since their debut? How many times has Andrade faced X mexican stars?Why did Murphy go down from beating Bryan,toe to toe with Reigns,to bottom card squashes?

There is no story,just one note matches on repeat.It feels like the only new star they are building is Kairi(And AOP if you count then as new)

Giving new stars squashes against jobbers and extended squashed against lower level stars is the perfect way to build someone up. And then over time they can move up the card little by little.

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

Regular call to drop the anonymous poll and make this write in based.

The issue is that they arent moving little by little or given reason to care about then.They had PLENTY of time already and used these guys many times already and yet they dont move.

Since they were put on Raw with Heyman in charge? Couldn’t have been that long. I think he’s slowly building them up and they’re feeling more and more important as a result (at least to me, as a viewer).

Issue is I don't even know how much traction that would get compared to how easy it is to just click vote. 

That aside, I am not counting the 10's anymore unless they explain themselves. I'm done with this, they only show up on this thread to spite people who didn't like the show, and every other Poll is normal. They aren't gonna screw up this poll for some petty nonsense. As stated before, the average polls don't even get that screwed up anyway even if the 10s are counted, but unless you wanna tell me your 10 is genuine and real anymore for RAW polls, I'm not giving them satisfaction anymore. Mods are as tired of this as I am. It's gone on for years now, and it's a shame some people really find it a necessity to do this every single week.

[Finish Uncle Muffin’s Story]

I didn't hate it. Honestly, I feel like I might have enjoyed it more because I stayed off of social during the show. Just food for thought.

I like that they're starting to create more defined tiers for talent and that Heyman's building a really strong midcard with Ricochet, Murphy, Black, Andrade, McIntyre, Orton, AJ, Humberto and Mysterio. And in the case of guys like Orton, AJ and Mysterio, those guys can easily be pushed up to mix it up with Seth and Owens.

I especially like that they're really building Murphy, Black, McIntyre, Andrade and Humberto.

In some ways, I could see this being a beneficial formula for RAW moving forward. Really build up your new guys so that when the time comes, they can switch over to SD and not have them feel minor league.

[saneiac]

Somehow they took my least favorite thing in WWE - the Street Profits talking - and made it worse.
The beginning of the show sucked.
The ending of the show sucked.
The middle of the show... wasn't too bad, for the most part.

4/10
