They really nailed it this week. They always do a good job the night after mania but this week was perfect IMO.

Maybe this is just me, but I honestly feel like Cesaro got screwed over. And maybe this would come off to some as sour grapes, but I'd rather see Cesaro get a title shot. AJ vs Roman just doesn't sell it for me. I understand that Styles has competed all over the place and he is, pun intended, a phenomenal wrestler. However, this feels like another slap in the face from the creative team. It's already ridiculous that they're trying so hard to jam Reigns into our skulls despite the consistent wave of boos. Since the two top titles merged in 2013, EIGHT people, including Reigns, have held the title. Reigns is on his THIRD title run in the last FIVE months. NO ONE ELSE has even made it to TWO yet. Styles winning might just be to make Roman look stronger and lengthen his title run, but honestly, Cesaro has scratched and clawed and proven time and time again that he is main event material. He came back, the crowd loved him, and he.....lost! A guy that the fans could rally around as a true face of the company(kinda like that Dean Ambrose guy that they keep screwing over) once again has to take a seat and shake his head as the ship continues to sink.

I feel like this is to set up a Reigns heel turn. I think the deafening boos at WM finally nailed it in for the poor bastard. Beating AJ makes Roman even more of a dick. Let Cesaro get recalibrated, maybe in a feud with Jericho? Those would be some very incredible matches.
Reigns as champion is happening, haha. Might as well just sit back and let it at this point.
Tonights RAW was pretty great off the heels of that shit show of a WM lol. Can't wait to see what they do with all the NXT call ups they had tonight. RAW is in a very interesting place right now. Hopefully they don't bone it up.

I think WWE lost me this week. WM didn't do it for me. Raw didn't do it for me. Something needs to change. I won't go out of my way to watch Raw anymore.

I think RAW was more of a 85% yes, and 15% no for me. Most of the show had me off my feet, a few were meh. I think the only thing I really enjoyed was the debut of Enzo & Cass, the main event, and the crowd chanting "W W E WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!"

I thought RAW was as disappointing as Brock/Dean.
Save for a few highlights, they didn't have that big angle, they didn't have that huge storyline hook. AJ Styles as #1 contender doesn't hook me for next week because 1) He was the #1 contender when he debuted (Royal Rumble was for the Title) and #2 he just lost to Jericho who, other than that RAW, hasn't cared for the World Title since 2013?
I really thought it was bad. For a night that's hyped up to everything and more, the road writers and HHH/Steph under-performed and under-whelmed. It was a regular RAW after the first 40 minutes.

Just going to come here to say that I only saw the last half hour of Raw but I loved it. I made it in time for Enzo and Cass and the awesome main event.
A big, big part of me is fucking bummed I'm going to have to go through Roman mowing through the IWC favorites just like Cena did. But on the other hand, the early days of being grumpy because Super Cena beats Christian, Jericho and Angle all the time... that was fun, and it pissed me off, but it pissed me off as a fan, I guess?
That said, Cena was the first guy I watched WWE take from nobody to The Guy, so I'm getting a repeat now.
Either way, it's my favorite guy in WWE versus my least favorite, so it has all of my attention.

At least he didn't say he was "The BIG Guy," because The Big Guy don't win shit.
