    Probably better we never know. They'd be finished forever. Think Terry Taylor and the whole Red Rooster crap.

    Taylor was actually a talented wrestler too.

    Switched this on this morning with the intention of watching most of it. Within about 2 minutes, JBL's random interruptions and catchphrases had driven me to fast forward through pretty much the whole show. I don't even know how the main event finished, I assume Cena came out strongest.

    Liked Bo's bit. I wouldn't mind being deported to Italy.

    Everything outside of Brock Lesnar is of no interest to me at the moment. When I think of Reigns vs Orton I picture cream crackers in my mind. Just completely dry, boring and unimaginative. Randy was bossing it in the suit though, I'll give him that.

    The Bella stuff is a joke. Raw's main demographic is 18-35 males and kids yet we are getting a storyline revolving around "My sister stole my prom date" (That's the only one of the Bella backstory vignettes I bothered watching).

    It's so incredibly small time and unimportant, even for a professional wrestling feud.

    I've never been AJ's biggest fan but even I can admit that her return has made the world of difference for Paige, it's given the latter something to focus on and relieve some pressure.

    I like Sandow playing Miz's sidekick/stuntman. Makes sense, hives him something to do and has the potential to pull him up into the upper micard again.

    The assistant lady was a hardcore wrestler in her own right, I've heard. There were posts on FB with her blading like a lunatic beside her dabbling the Miz with powder.

    I ended up watching some of it through youtube and I noticed there was a lot of advertising for next week's raw. Is there something special about it?

    Its the return of the NFL so its probably going to get curb stomped in the ratings.They tried to get some gay NFL chap on it, he said no.

    Jerry Springer will also be on it because its still 1999 to do something between the Bellas.

    Technically next weeks Raw is the season premiere. Despite the fact Raw doesn't take a break all year!
    The fall season is a big deal for tv ratings in the states but Raw is fecked as the NFL's Monday Night Football is back!

    Been travelling across the planet again so missed this show. Reading here though actually glad I did.

    Without an Ambrose and / or a Brock appearance Raw seems to suffer majorly. Nobody really cares about the bells especially the more removed from Bryan v the authority their story becomes

    Yeah, WWE seem to think if they don't have someone like Cena on then it's a big loss while we're watching and barely/don't notice when he's absent but do notice the lack of Bryan or Ambrose.

    I wonder if it was Ambrose's idea to take a long time off to sell the injuries (though why have that story about refusing medical help and disappearing?) instead of coming back after 1 week off like Cena did.

    Watching the Monday Night War, it does seem like Ambrose would be the type of guy they would need to bring a breath of fresh air and viewers to the company if they still had competition.

    She also works in a Gamestop.
