I think that one day, Sasha will headline a big 4 PPV. Don't know who will be up there with her but in truly believe women will main event and Sasha will be half of that historic match

Well I suppose Orton vs Lesner is Raw vs SD even if it was announced before the draft.

I would completely understand if it is. But I really hope it isn't. The title match should be last (unless there's a special match).

I agree. It's bound to happen one day. With the latest crop of women coming in having a lot of talent makes it even more likely.

I'd love to see a heel Sasha make Bayley tap out.

Speaking of which, has the final match at WM ever ended with the heel making a face tap out?

Cena vs HHH and HBK does not count.

Anyone else hoping to see an RKO in about 10 minutes?

I wonder if Lesnar (or Heyman even) knows what Heyman is going to say when he goes out there

Oh I am lol. Can't end an episode just on a promo

Brilliant

R-k-o!

That was a great surprise hit

More like 6 and half.

Nice ending. I would like to see Stephanie or Foley turn up on Smackdown angry with Orton being on RAW to further this.

Close enough.

I think it would've been more shocking if they had the Lesnar and Heyman promo as the penultimate segment. Having it as the final segment gave away the impression that there was going to be some sort of physical altercation.

I enjoyed Raw. Not as much as last week though.
Everything was at a good pace and almost everything had some meaning behind it as opposed to being randomly thrown together. Jericho coming out during the start was the oddest thing and even that turned into something decent.

I agree with you, it was a little obvious due to its placing but still a very enjoyable segment. The obvious thing now is how it goes on Smackdown tomorrow. I would have Lesnar get his arse to the show tomorrow. Don't announce it beforehand but the opening scene (even before the titles) should have a car pulling into the arena, could it be Steph, could it be Foley, possibly Orton. The door opens, out steps Heyman and says "game on" or similar. Camera pans to Lesnar with that maniacal laugh and the titles roll.

Shot comes back to Lesnar and Heyman walking backstage to a wall of security which Lesnar takes out and they through the back, out to the set. Heyman smiling as he walks through, Lesnar knocking people out left, right and centre. Get to ringside and Lesnar throws Otunga out of his chair and puts it in the ring and Heyman says something like "Shane, we know you're there. You need to call the USA Network and tell them they ain't getting a show tonight because Brock Lesnar isn't leaving this ring until Randy Orton shows his face".

Heyman delivers another promo heading into the first ad break and when we come back, the screen shows Orton getting out of his car and Lesnar bolts to the back and have a massive brawl.

Social media would go off when Heyman got out of that car which would make up a little bit for the lack of promotion. Nobody would win the brawl but they would get pulled apart and maybe a Lesnar arrest for the 392 assaults he made through the arena.

Sorry, got a little carried away armchair booking.

I hope we do get Cass vs Owens because one thing is for sure and Kev is getting squashed.

Stupid ref giving belt to wrong person.

Oh Christ Sake not bloody Heyman again spouting crap for 15 minutes.

Jericho the MVP of Raw, agayyyyyn.

Is there anything this guy can't do? (I swear if anyone says any of the following.....

1.Go away...
2. Sing
3. Wrestle
4. All of the above

Do you know what would make me like Finn Balor. If they made his character like a Count Dracula character because he has the hair and the leather jacket, he kinda looks a bit mysterious and then when he talks it could be like a mixture of German and Dracula. He could say things like 'Vot is my match-a tonight Mr Fo-lee.' A little bit of Italian in there too. Like an Italian German Dracula. 'I shall go in zee ring and ba ba boom I knocks a them out with my spin kick'.


This is the kind of thing that gets people over. And they could hire more Scottish wrestlers, maybe a Scottish woman wrestler and they could play real life politics into it, they could mention Brexit and Independance and after every match she waves the Scottish flag in the air and starts poking her opponent with the flag stick.


They could bring Donald Trump on Raw or have a character that supports him and kinda like the Zeb Colter character and Donald Trump could get them massive heat and really get them over. They could even build a cage round the ring and have Trump say this is what i'm building round America in November, make America Great Again! Huge heat there.

What about a character called Deadline. And the Deadline part means he beats his opponents within a specific time limit of 60 seconds and it's up to the other wrestlers to try and beat the Deadline.

Another character I was thinking about was a character from a lost tribe. Maybe WWE travels to a country they've never been to before or has lots of jungles and this character smuggles themselves onto the plane home or another wrestler befriends them. They can't speak English, only their tribe language and slowly but surely they learn to wrestle and end up being really good at it and we see vignettes of them eating weird things and the big thing is at the end of their matches they try and eat their opponents but the referees always intervene and get the opponent away just in time and they try and teach them to adapt to the ways of the western world and try and stop them being cannibalistic.

Another idea I have is for a larger female wrestler who has 3 boobs. Obviously the 3rd boob would just be a prosthetic but this would be great for a comedy character.

Also it would be great to have a drag queen character, a man that dresses up as a woman or even the other way around and have a woman dress up as a man but they totally believe that they are that person, they change their voice, if it's a guy then he talks with a high pitched squeeky voice, the woman would talk in a low gruff voice. Again, something not seen in wrestling before and huge potential for them to get over as babyfaces.

Dude, you suck.

If you wanna get over you better get a character.

First segment sucked. Not a fan of either Rachet Banks or Enzo.

Balor needs to stop grabbing his jacket as it looks dumb. I keep expecting him to throw two thumbs up and do a Fonzie. He really does suck at promos. Horrible.

Loved Rollins in that segment though.

The New Day oranges/banana bit did give me chuckle.

Lesnar/Heyman, boring arse promo as expected and ended up skipping it. Only saving grace was the RKO but even then Orton ran off like a beyatch. Stay in the ring and beat Lesnar up!

WWE really is meh. It's all so predictable.

Same old Raw. New tweaks to the show help as good as they can, but generally it's the same old format they've been toying with for many years. The one which has not made stars in their own right: a bit of childish comedy, short matches with 50/50 booking, confusing heel turn, matches booked during the show, dragged out opening segment, part time veterans are the star of the show etc.

Last week was good because they used some old tricks to make it big: end of a long title reign, a return, a big debut, title tournament, big star losing cleanly, implementing of tweaks to presentation. Obviously they can't rely on that every week. This week was decent because it still had the momentum of last week to work with.

I think people here are over-praising the show after getting bored of trashing it.. just for something different.

But it's the same old tired format.

Honestly it's post like that that make me so glad that your not part of creative if I was a member of creative and you gave me those ideas then I will tell you to shove it where the sun don't shine.

Yeah Jericho can't keep quiet quiet quiet quiet quiet I wish he would stop saying quiet sounds like his coming up with lyrics for Fozzys next single.
