[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

That Owens promo and Gargano match save this show from being a negative rating

But the honeymoon period with HHH is starting to wear off, some of these angles suck and desperately need to end.

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

1 for CTRL winning a couple weeks too late and 1 for Gargano's match but otherwise RAW still f***ing blows chunks.

[hashtagdaley/JudasDay]

6.

Not bad. Not great.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

Gargano and KO are enough to get it to a 6 but it wasn't a strong show by any means.

[Deleted]

7. Enjoyed everything that Dominik wasn't part of.

[mistery]

6. Enjoyed mostly everything, except Dominick is absolute garbage and I don't even mean that in an ironic way. He's just an awful wrestler in general. He made David Flair look competent.

[theironyuppie]

I'd say around 7, though I like the storytelling with Dom. Turning heel hasn't suddenly turned him into a great or strong wrestler (though the roll-through counter on the spear was nice and his frog splash was clean), he's just been manipulated by Rhea, who's being presented as a real big bad for whenever she moves back into the women's division. Gargano/Gable was great too, though I was disappointed in the women's tag, and Bianca/Sonya suffered from being so predictable while also being longer than it should have been.

[asuka007]

A 7.5/10:

The Women’s Tag Belts are where they should be, good.

The Theory/KO segment was awesome. KO is so damn great!!

I look forward to Seth vs. Lashley.

Gargano vs. Gable was predictably really good.

The ME was not handled well imo. Edge just should have lost (use his injured leg from last week as a way to protect him in defeat even).

Bianca vs. Sonya is interesting. Because in terms of the match itself, they actually did pretty good in setting it up. Sonya got a fair amount of offense in (hopefully they build on that because she’s too talented to keep being a jobber). But it also shows how much work Triplr H has left to do to rebuild that division.

Same with the match on SD last week. None of those women had been portrayed as credible aside from Ronda. So no one bought anyone but Ronda winning. And no one bought Sonya was going to win here because she’s won ONE match all year and lost on Friday. Meanwhile Bianca has been pinned ONCE all year, and only FIVE times on the MR total (and is always protected in the process). She also rarely looks truly vulnerable, (she beat up both tag champs tonight and sent Bayley running as well, which was not the right move imo). So no matter how much offense you give her opponents, no one buys she’ll actually lose.

They DESPERATELY need to start building up new women quick (it’s also why I feel Ronda just beating Liv would be a step backwards as wt).

It's definitely an issue, and a tricky one to navigate cause it nearly falls into that AEW cycle of crowds not caring about them but also not getting the chance/time to make crowds care. Though I also think what you're saying is why they're building up Rhea the way they have been, to be that person who actually can be a real threat to Bianca when the time's right.

[fw91]

Tbh, I thought it was really boring. 4 because it wasn’t offensively awful, but I was flicking channels consistently

[SneakMan]

I actually watched Raw for once since I figured I'd see what all the Papa Levesque hype was about. Didn't care about Riddle vs Finn; though it was technically pretty good I just cannot get behind Riddle at all due to his personal shit. Io and Dakota winning the tag belts was nice to see though the match was sloppy towards the end. Gargano vs Gable was great though I still think Gargano is a giant dork and I will root for him to lose at every opportunity. Theory continues to be utterly bland but KO cut a legit excellent promo on him. Bianca vs Sonya happened. The Omos squash happened. Don't care about Lumis vs Miz at all. Dominik vs Edge was a gigantic waste of time especially with the DQ finish.

I dunno. Other than Gargano/Gable and KO's half of his promo there wasn't much outstanding but there also wasn't anything offensively bad. Went with a 5.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

Veer is still MIA, 0/10.

[Celgress]

7 out of 10, IMHO,
