    Are they going the randomizer route or the trade route for the draft?

    They honestly could have done with having the draft start tonight after that sh1tshow of a PPV last night that at least might have gotten fans over it quicker.


    Hopefully Fury say something really offensive

    Think people would **** all over the draft if it was tonight. Should just have the fiend attack Vince for some cheap pops from the crowd and Fury will probably say something too to get the crowd popping.

    About as good a promo as you’ll get from Lashley there given his limitations on the mic. This could work for him

    Good opening to Raw. Though with Natalya winning you have to imagine there will have to be another match for Lacey to get the win in the blow off match.

    Decided to watch Raw instead of watching highlights and reading bleacher report tomorrow, big mistake so far.

    Not one in ring promo yet except the Rusev one, this is just brutal. No mention of the fiend yet has there been?

    Its just been wrestling match after wrestling match. Lord give me strength to actually watch this till the end.

    No doubt in my mind that the gypsy king promo will be absolutely shocking.

    Shock horror that a wrestling show has the nerve to actually put on wrestling matches.

    There's been some promos but you ain't getting the same level of smack talking like there was before. Even on a good night's Raw the promos are gonna be somewhat meh with the odd good one now and then but tonight's Raw is in a weird place that it's stuck in between a PPV and the draft on Friday so not much was gonna happen tonight.

    I know it’s a small thing but think they’re missing a trick not having Fury carrying the heavyweight belt.
    Would be a better visual and really highlight he’s heavyweight champion of the world

    Depends on how many promo's we are talking about ;)
    A wrestling show does need promo's to help spilt things up. Change the pace. Sell and get people into the main event or build to the PPV yadda yadda.

    That said, back in the day each RAW would open up to a big 15-20 minute mouth-off week in and week out. Come rain or shine. Can't be doing that these days either. Mix it up. But the problem with watching a lot of matches is that RAW is a hard watch these days.

    I hope Fury is being paid substantially because that was embarrassing. Usual crap with separating two "behomeths" - you break free then hop on me, then I do vice versa.

    It's kind of cringe that will have boxing fans and pundits sh1tting on the whole business and I couldn't blame them one bit.

    Says it all that no Rollins or Wyatt and they barely mentioned the match. Sweep it up under the rug and hope no-one remembers after the draft. I hope fans do.

    I've watched wrestling for most of my life so I should've built up a strong tolerance to cringe but that Lana/Lashley stuff was awful.

    Meltzer says Sasha is injured but there is no word on the seriousness of it.

    Sounds good to me.

    Guess they could say Seth was selling the injuries since he was seemingly bleeding internally somehow from having a hand stuck in his mouth.

    And we got Black in the ring

    Saw a post on Reddit that probably explains the Lana/Rusev/Lashley stuff. USA have a "reality" show called Temptation Island (you see it advertised a LOT if you watch an American stream of Raw) where couples go to an island and try not to cheat on each other. The new season is starting so this is just veiled advertising.

    Same thing happened when the last season began back in January when they did the Mandy/Naomi/Uso angle.

    Long story short, it's probably not Heyman getting his weird rocks off.

    He's not the (or a) heavyweight champion though.
