Best Lesnar segment since he's returned. I've not been a big fan since 02/03. But he looks in mean shape, best shape he has done and that segment was powerful. Awesome. Bryan vs Ziggler was good too.

Why did Sheamus have a 1990's moheekan and Pubic ties on his chin? Not missed that fella one bit.

 

[RavenBish]

That was an amazing segment. Lesnar is indescribably good.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Well this has been very non PG so far.

 

[RavenBish]

This is really weird now. Need to get a couple of commentators down there.

Do we think Lesnar went off script and lost it? Perhaps Vince got him to sign the contract and then changed the end to the show with Lesnar losing? Surely not?

Ouuu Adrian Neville.

 

[Gilly?]

Neville.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Samoa Joe to accept Cena's open invitational?

 

[RavenBish]

They turned Neville into a superhero and removed Adrian. Classic Vince.

Saxton has fucking lost the plot here, completely shat himself. Weird how they didn't give him a colour commentator.

 

[Stevencc]

King to the rescue.

 

[Gilly?]

Get Corey Graves on commentary!

Before or after Nash tore his quad?

Michael Cole taken to hospital with suspected cervical fracture. Shitting hell. Brock actually nearly killed him.

 

[Libertine]

How many NXT debuts tonight and they still chant 'same old shit'.

 

[Libertine]

Crap ending to an awesome episode.

 

[RavenBish]

That was utterly dreadful. Raw after Mania is no longer a thing after that.

I honestly thought it was going to be fantastic after the Lesnar segment but all it did was kill the rest of the weak show. Decent debuts for Luchas and Neville. But too many bad matches, not enough surprises and a Main Event involving Show, Kane and Ryback...FFS.

Oh and Byron fucking Saxton who is probably getting fired tomorrow after that.

All a work...

Currently watching RAW, been great so far, just seen Kalisto get the win, seems they're going to be pushing him somewhat (at least in the sense of making him look good on TV)

 

[mase]

That Lesnar segment was awesome.

Not sure on the hate for Saxton tbh. Still better than the usual 3 and he's out here on his own.

 

[This Charming Mike]

Lesnar. Is. Money. Fucking love the guy.

 

[ForeverUnited]

Lesnar was amazing, what a segment, shame he'll be out for ages.

Is there any update on the camera guy? fuck Cole!

Fantastic Raw, really enjoyed it, actually watched all 3 hours for first time in a long time. The 2 Lesnar segments were immense, I cant help fel a better way to have done it would have been the same opening segment but tease Rollins arrival all night and have the ending to the show what Lesnar did ending with Steph suspending him, as I do agree the show fell flat at the end. You could have then earlier in the night had Orton come out saying hes next in line for a title shot, Reigns would interrupt, build a bit of tension, Kane comes out and they set up a tag match between those 4.

Anyway, Bryan/Ziggler was very good, hoping the IC title prestige can build again and then Sheamus return, he looks ridiculous but nonetheless heel Sheamus was needed and hopefully we get a triple threat at ER. Cena/Ambrose was also very good, I think that could be a potential big money feud in the future, maybe even Summerslam time, I think an Ambrose heel turn is incoming with all his losses lately, he just cant get the job done in title matches. The tag match was also very good, Lucha dragons were very entertaining and the match flowed well, crowd really contributed to that, New Day sucks chant was great!

Sandow out on his own now, hope he will drop the Miz gimmick after hopefully he wins at ER, they have a chance to make something again of Sandow hopefully they will allow him to shine. Neville made his debut and looked great also, hopefully will join the IC title hunt soon, him in the mix with Bryan, Ziggler etc is mouthwatering. Divas actually got 10 minutes plus for their match, which was decent but I do agree that then Rusev/Goldust and the main event hurt the overall vibe of the show and would ahve been nice for Sting to not be on just the network and even better if we got the Undertaker challenge but overall I think you can only be pretty happy with it, alot of good moments, good matches, great crowd which of course makes all the difference but next weeks will be the real telling point.

That's a hell of a lot of hoping, Eamonn.

It was funny and also Bellas you suck to the theme of Cenas song. However to be fair there were also alot of AJ chants, some good reactions for Paige and a lets go Divas chant.

Enjoyed raw. Love Neville but don't get why they should drop his first name.
