Good to see the woman's division is back to shit again. Why have a brand new belt if they don't have it being defended on a big PPV event? Instead they just get a shitty tag team match, not even a singles match.

Why not add a ladders match or something similar for a MITB match for the women's belt? Guess that would mean creative actually need to think of more than one storyline at a time then for the women.
WWE may now have called it the women's division but they are still producing the same old shit for the women seriously a women's tag team match at MITB? As if we haven't seen enough of those that match should be on Raw not on a PPV.

Glad to see him suspended and likely fired.
I wish.

However i'm sure he'll be back in some capacity in due time sadly. He's been around long enough to know where the bodies are buried, so to speak and i could easily see him threaten to spill a secret or two if he didn't get his way.

Really is pathetic isn't it. Why have a pointless tag match on a PPV for? Shows they have given up already.

You know what I really like? 6-man tag team matches between all the all the MITB match participants. Been so lucky to see 47 of them the past few weeks.

Really not got in to the build up of MITB, some of the past few Raws have been dreadful. Though the card is great. And if Bray Wyatt comes away with the briefcase I'll let them off for those god awful Raws. Still think we're gonna get a 7th man, either Wyatt or Orton.
I loved that match was so happy Ambrose won. You can tell he should be the face of WWE.

That's sad if true if WWE don't give a toss about the women's division by having them in pointless matches as even everyone on this thread can see how talented some of those women wrestlers are.

I think the idea was to get another match out of these women before moving onto a new main feud for Summerslam.

The tag match on a PPV seems odd, just do the match on a Raw and have a title match at the PPV.

Basically this, chances are Becky/Nattie pick up the win and Charlotte wont take the pin. Its leading to Charlotte being exposed with no support from anyone leading into whoever to take the title at Summerslam.

I'm sure it's been said before but I really don't rate Ambrose in the ring

He's undoubtedly over and can talk, but just about every aspect of his ring work is lacking

His ring work is alot better than Roman's. Plus if its what the fans want they should do it.

Have to disagree with the ring work being better than Roman's

The rebound off the ropes, spin under the bottom rope and back out, and the bounce off of the second turnbuckle take all the pace out of whatever offence is coming, usually a clothesline, and make it look sloppy

So WWE have been contacting a number of former WWE Superstars in order to help fill up the rosters of Raw and Smackdown post draft.

Gangrel here we go.

I don't think Dean is comfortable working as a babyface. Especially one they've made into a goofy one.

With 70 performers on the main roster and 35 in NXT they've got access to enough talent for a brand split. If they're contacting everybody from Angle and Goldberg to
Morrison and Cryme Tyme it's probably morevdue to giving the ratings a boost.

Really? Where'd you hear that?

We dont need former talent coming back just for a Brand split. There is enough guys on the roster to fill the split easily.

Is it really that difficult to give the lower end wrestlers decent air time? Thats what I loved about the last split because the main event guys wasent hogging air time on both shows. It gave people a chance to get air time.

Could it be the long awaited return of Mordecai?

The New Era, featuring Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Jeff Hardy...I mean seriously?!! The roster is bloody stacked right now, maybe not full of huge stars but that is purely down to how poor creative have been in building up people.

By now you could and should have people like Bray Wyatt, Rusev, Luke Harper and Cesaro all top guys. Yet due to poor booking and down right lazy ass writing all of them are still very much mid level guys.

So what are they trying to do with a brand split? Bring back guys in their 40s and older to yet again take away the lime light of the younger guys who could carry a show like Smackdown on their own if booked right.

Honestly, if they do bring a lot of the names mentioned back I give up, as it shows how little faith they have in the roster right now.

At this rate expect New Day to feud with Mean Street Posse.

I can see a benefit of Angle in some role. Im not going to go back on what I've said before, I don't want to see him wrestle, but in a role as a manager of American Alpha (a sort of Team Angle/World's Greatest Tag Team re-run).

In other news, WWE has reversed their 2013 decision to not fund rehab for HOFer Sunny. She's been in a $40k a month facility since March so hopefully she can get herself sorted as they've opened the door again.

The problem is that Angle in a manager role will inevitably lead to Angle wrestling.

This place is very dead given there's a PPV this evening - though I can't blame you guys given the gruel WWE serve up.
I've been really busy the last few weeks and not caught much Raw/SD but sounds like I'm not missed much if anything.

It doesn't have to lead to Angle wrestling though. I wouldn't mind him taking a bump to turn AA heel in the future but there is no reason for him to become a wrestler in that scenario. That would be a choice by WWE and one I will be against

Agreed it doesn't have to lead to Angle wrestling. But given my current lack of faith in WWE that's where'd I'd see it heading. They'd hear fans chant for Angle and probably have him wrestle again eventually.

I did like the fact that the AJ-Cena promo a few weeks back apparently reached truly ludicrous levels of insider-references and kayfabe-breaking.
Anything worth checking out from the last few weeks of Raw/SD before MITB tonight (silly question I know).

I find my enjoyment of PPV's very much increases as the amount of Raw I watch decreases so I wouldn't bother
