One of the comments I saw during the week as a compliment to Kross was; "For the first time ever in the last few weeks I hadn't even noticed Scarlett was standing beside him"🤣

I think her being up against a returning Becky who just won't get booed, means she'll have to develop a bit and that's good. Definitely agree that she needs to change but I think this programme can be what will bring it out in here. I definitely felt reminded of when Finn Balor had that stage where all he did was smile and put on good matches and it did him no favours.

I was thinking who else could Seth and Paul recruit and when is Bronson Reed likely back, I know he feuded with Seth but Stomp, Spear and Tsunami all under Heyman's guidance, the carnage

PTH2009

Have a feeling if Bronson Reed didn't get injured then he would of been under the hood on Raw. Maybe he will join eventually

Saw a suggestion Austin Theory should be the 'Randy Orton' of the group if there going in the Evolution like direction

Well he does need some sort of reset and eventually could lead him to a face

Have WWE or Netflix ever given a reason for editing the replay of Raw? I know they cut out the parts where commercials would be, but if watching live they show full entrances, all of the match, interviews, so it's not like we see commercials.

What makes it worse is the replays of NXT and Smackdown have those "Back soon" videos instead of commercials, when cutting those would make more sense.

I'm pretty sure the majority of viewers these days are via Netflix so they should cater to the majority. And the footage is all still there, Just for some reason, it's set up to skip forward at those points.

On the card tonight

* Iyo Sky vs. Roxanne Perez

* Rusev vs. Otis

* Penta vs. JD McDonagh

Necro

Rumours of Austin Theory's demise appear to be unfounded based on last night. That eventual split between Waller and Theory is going to be frozen it's been teased for so long though😂

CastorTroy

How many do a spear now? Jey's is quite crap. He really needs his own move considering he does a spear, a superkick and a splash.

Thought we might've had Stephanie out to hep Iyo.

JP Liz V1

Jey vs. Seth would have been better at the ppv instead of Jey vs. Logan Paul if that is the plan

I'm enjoying heel Giulia

Is Paul ronseal tanning with Bron now 😄

Yes Jey's spear is bad, more like a diving headbutt, he should give up doing imho

Loughc

Heymans promo was excellent and he was right. Decent Raw genuinely thought Jey was finished tonight as people had reported Punk was on extended leave.

CastorTroy

Lyra definitely came across better than I expected.

DM_7

How long are they going to drag out Theory and Waller breaking apart or Finn out of Judgement Day. Seems both have been going on a long time.

JP Liz V1

So it looks like after Pat, it will be Gunther vs. Goldberg for Summerslam according to TDS

Boooring Goldberg put over Braun and should have left it at that. He offers nothing these days as a draw IMO. Gunther deserves better but I get it he can’t be on top all the time.

ThePott

If he retires Goldberg I think that's worthwhile. The programme between him and Goldberg could be fun if they lean into Gunther being a proper wrestler and Goldberg being a one (or two) trick pony.

Time will though, I've been assuming it would lead to Gunther/Goldberg alright.

PTH2009

So is Sami 'Heymans 3rd man' ?

I think so

PTH2009

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123443123#Comment_123443123

Would love it to be someone unexpected like Sheamus (the co big man of the group) but maybe his time as a 'big player' has passed

Or they might go for another younger guy similar to Bron. Someone did say what about Ilja?

JP Liz V1

Gunther getting his rematch against Jey on Raw

Jey has Seth, Logan and Gunther after his title

Cotts72

Its destined to be Logan Paul dethroning him at some point. Huge media spin for WWE if they pull the trigger. TBH id rather neihter of them as champion, jey is completely underwhelming and looks out of place. Similar to Priest World champion just doesnt suit

JP Liz V1

Punk calling Heyman "Penguin" 🤣
