What's worrying me is the idea they might stretch these fatal 4 way matches out till 30 minutes each and then do the womens match for 20 minutes to fill time.
and thats bad how, so far this match has been fantastic

It's even worse than The WCW International Heavyweight Championship.
There was at least kayfabe logic there. WCW started to pass of itself as what was left of the NWA, which had become meaningless by then. NJPW, All Star Wrestling (UK and Australia) etc had links to WCW and still recognised the championship. They corrected it within less than a year my merging with the WCW world title.

The WWE situation makes little sense.

They should have just called it the WWE Raw Championship.

I'd also argue with ratings finally bottoming out to pre-Monday night wars levels, they should give up on having all these mid-card stars face off so much for free. At this point they could run a bunch of squash matches against no namers and/or older stars, yet ratings would stay the same.
Agreed. One marquee match per show and go for hot angles through the night. Always end on a cliffhanger. How to fill three hours though?

Didnt show one ounce of charisma or intrigue in that match or his entrance.

Charlie Haas would have shown more

So who's going to get the honour of being squashed first by Nia Jax?

The little muffin or Foxy would be the best bet

Didn't see much in him myself either, but it's early days (I don't watch NXT, so this was my first viewing of Balor)

I hate the whole "This is a woman's match". Why not just a single? They don't say "A mens match!".

What is the point of this match anyway? Isn't the whole unknown jobber thing and NXT thing? Why carry it over onto Raw? :s

I hope he thrives a bit more when he's not having to be the ace babyface on the show.

Really feel like Nia Jax needs more menacing music, especially if they are going to play her as a malicious monster heel.

He comes across to me as somebody who is much more comfortable in a heel role, even the way he walks to the ring (as in his face rather than the arm thing) is much more cocky heel than baby face. I like his matches, he's (IMO) a great wrestler but he needs something fresh.
