I don't think ESPN sees any conflict with FOX or USA regarding WWE. They will continue to do whatever they want with WWE on the side.
I’m sure Anthem wants to keep airing New Japan, but will New Japan want to be considered in bed with Impact?
Charlotte was the sloppiest I've ever seen her in ring. Had 2 pretty bad botches. Overall an ok match, but still cant get past how stupid it was to even have booked this
I meant its ridiculous to book Charlotte and Becky together now and just switch Charlotte to maybe a face for no reason
But seriously, I wonder what was up with Charlotte. I give her shit sometimes but it usually isnt in ring related. She missed a big boot so bad that even Graves had to mention it, than completely whiffed a moonsault. Even her finisher didnt look smooth.
I miss the studio shows and territories w internet etc would be amazing Pretty sure I'm the oldest here
10 man tag match...womens tag match involving a team that booking wise makes no sense. A promo segment to start show that included an old vet for a pop. For sure reeks of Vince. Not a very good RAW imo so far. At least was expecting better
Corbin was even getting some we want Corbin chants tonight (to be fair the Corbin sucks chants were louder), but his stock is growing
That was a good match. I've like the KOTR matches in general. Natalya v Lacey next...good time to go take out the dogs and get ready for bed. Dont need to see Natalya on TV again
Good, after last week i was really concerned that Natalya wasn’t going to get a win back against lacy. That without it, she would lose some shine from her long and storied carrier and lineage. That was a big concern of mine. Can’t wait for the rubber match on a preshow for a B tier PPV
Honestly dont know why you would ever book a 10 man tag match. Nothing on the line, random pairs, and hard to really get a good rhythm...just a jumbled nothing main event.
I've always like Corbin. He's capable of putting on good matches, especially for a man his size, and he's a decent talker who people naturally hate.
You know what? Renee is terrible at commentating. Everything she says makes me cringe. She is worse than both Coach and JBL ever were. She is probably the worst commentator that the longest running episodic show on TV has ever had. /hot take
You mean to to tell me a commentator that just says “Hey!” “Oh!” “Watch Out!” is bad? I don’t believe you. (She’s the worst)

Best case is they let Rene host the studio show on FS1 and put someone else on commentary Also I think Bray for sure taking out Taker tonight. He fixed the 3:16 clock to 11:19. Undertaker debuted on 11/19.
Three person commentary booths don't work. The third person (Renee) is left without any role so they just say dumb shit.
Michael Cole being nothing more than a puppet adds to the problem. just give Corey someone with an actual personality and some charisma to go back and forth with.
Weird that everyone around Cole is considered the worst. (Except Corey who goes to extraordinary lengths to carve out his own cleverness). It is all about how Cole(/Vince) sets up the broadcast by adding nothing meaningful and every single cover attempt and every single routine move is met with "THIS CAN BE IT RIGHT HERE!!!!!" leaving little room for much nuance. It all starts with Cole. Some can basically ignore him and just make their own broadcast (Corey) but most need to be directed and setup correctly like any good sports broadcast.
Bury the OC all night. Pointless match with the four biggest women in the company that was a train wreck of execution and logic in the first half of the show. Random ass ten man tag thrown together with literally no purpose because creative isn’t creative and can’t tell stories. #RinseAndRepeat #JustAnotherMonday #PleaseLeaveVince #BringOnAEW #HashtaggingOnAForum
I get why they wanted a 10 man tag. Trying to recreate that Radicalz match from 20 years ago. That felt much more organic though. And the heat was incredible.
