Sweet jebus just watched that. Let them go home Vince you absolute nutjob.

Yep mania was ideal spot to take a break. They could have ended the whole thing on an angle If they needed. And teased it out online until they’re ready to comeback live and in front of a live audience.

I’m not disagreeing but curious as to how they would finish it? This is the company who blew up a limo and the person survived. Again now I’m just wondering how you’d end it?

CastorTroy

To be fair, the limo thing happened just before the Benoit murder/suicide so the outcome for that wasn't their fault.

They could have the hacker guy take control of programming and hold it ransom. Have updates on what's happening via the website or social media.

Was thinking it's mad that at this point, Lana has probably been in more matches than Zelina.

Shane finally returns... with the lockbox :pac:

Maybe have HHH attack Drew at the end of mania and have HHH backed up by NXT wrestlers and go this is NXT’s house and as long as I’m in charge of NXT you’re not welcomed here. Then have the NXT stars destroy the Mania set destroy cameras etc and just fade to black.

Honestly no idea how’d you do it. But they should have viewed it as a season finale that you leave on a cliffhanger.

Ya maybe the lads they were looking to call up ala nexus but I guess they had enough on their plate just getting too mania

The White Wolf

Big Show....Nia Jax....Good god. Coronavirus is just relentless in the punishment.

CastorTroy

Not forgetting we had Tamina at Mania

PTH2009

Also 3 matches with the same people involved

CastorTroy

They could've made it 5 and have Street Profits fight individually as well.

Adiboo

Is Raw live tonight or are they still working their way through the tapings?

Itssoeasy

Just give the case to Shayna and be done with it

Monokne

Poor Kairi being fodder to get Nia over.

There’s very few wrestlers I really hate but nia is up there

Just cannot deal with her

J. Marston

I remember reading somewhere (Reddit?) that Kairi's contract is up soon and apparently she got married recently. With her taking the pin at Mania and being squashed (probably) by Nia tonight could there be something to her leaving?

PTH2009

Reckon they dont even know who they want to challenge Drew for the title and just giving him these random match ups

Remember they have no live events to try random stuff out

PTH2009

Jesus they must have nobody else if MVP is getting back in the ring against Apollo Crews next week

SMC92Ian

God not Shayna, she's dull as ffff. Tired of Conor McBecky too. So I dunno.

J. Marston

They asked Shayna about Ronda's comments on TV and Shayna has tweeted and since deleted...

"You think you know what REAL is? #Reality #FúckKayfabe"

So yeah, enjoy this Russo shít.

Agent Coulson

Just turned it on and The Radiers were very sloppy with Rick O Shea and Alexander.

Rick and Alex being jobbed out week after week is such a shame.

I feel the same.

Her sloppiness in hurting Charlotte, Bayley & Becky, married to the entitled manner in which she speaks. She thinks just because she is big, has the right connections & has gotten a push that she is really something. She is not bad in her role but she would not have had the success she has had if she had a different last name.

She comes across as a bit of an arsehole personality wise and is well documented to be dangerous in the ring, they would be my main complaints.

I'm not being funny but Nia Jax in a multi woman ladder match is asking for trouble. Someone is definitely getting busted up.

CastorTroy

They shouldn't have shown the replay of Sarah's win/loss. It was too obvious that it wasn't sore looking. The move has been executed better before, usually with the opponent able to continue, oddly enough.
Poor Kairi. Knew she was getting squashed and with Nia, that could be literal resulting in injuries. Nia reminds me of what happened in TNA with Daffney and Rosie Lottalove, aka Sage Beckett.

Did seem to be a lot of matches this week. Though at times it also felt like an episode of Superstars with jobbers/lower card guys.

Was also the Zelina Vega show. It's funny how the 2 guys got called up. Andrade gets suspended so angel takes over. Andrade gets injured so Austin takes his place. When Zelina was standing on the commentary table, the 3 guys must've been thinking "Eyes on the monitors!"

Drew looked like a giant in his match.

J. Marston

I see Drew is facing Garza tonight. I really hope this isn't some 15-20 minute workrate match.

Build Drew as an animal, he should be tearing through someone like Garza in 2-3 minutes.

PTH2009

Zelina OMG jusifys having the annoying Angel Garcia on tv

J. Marston

Nia Jax is just trash.
