Raw September 18, 2018 - More Mercy Than This Sunday

[George Steele's Barber]

Make the same complaints about Jason Jordan here that you make every week.

 

[klunderbunker]

I hope those shorts are a lot stretchier than they look or Alexa's thighs must be numb.

 

[Wildcat66]

Never underestimate the power of early returns.

 

[klunderbunker]

Hopefully the few weeks off have given the writers time to figure Bayley out, which should take all of eight seconds instead of the thinking they put into her.

 

[Navi]

Bayley really needs a new finisher. One of the worst I've seen.

True but if they ever want to turn her heel it can go straight from a hug to a Bayley to Belly for effect. I had a moment where I thought she might do it to Sasha during their hug.

 

[Wildcat66]

Bayley really needs a new finisher. One of the worst I've seen.

I nominate the Double Armed DDT.

 

[George Steele's Barber]

Glad to see they are writing Alexa's character to be stupid.

 

[klunderbunker]

My soul continues to die just a little bit whenever we get to the tag division.

 

[Navi]

I hear you, this is awful.

 

[klunderbunker]

For me it's not even that it's bad. It's the same teams fighting each other over and over and over for no reason other than they have nothing else to do.

 

[George Steele's Barber]

Haven't they put on some of the best matches of the year?

 

[klunderbunker]

Haven't they put on some of the best matches of the year?

Not really. Nothing they've done has topped New Day vs. Usos at Summerslam.

I don't hate the actual matches. I'm just really, really bored by seeing them fight over and over. You can watch a movie you like over and over again and eventually you're going to get tired of it.

 

[Navi]

Haven't they put on some of the best matches of the year?

Good matches, the best is a bit of a stretch. The Uso's and New Day have put on stellar matches on SD though.

 

[klunderbunker]

Another annoying thing about modern WWE: wasting big moves.

Cesaro and Sheamus just used a 3D and it's barely acknowledged before we're off to the next thing ten seconds later. Slow down for a few seconds already and let stuff sink in.

Goodfellas would like to have a word with you.

And yeah, I'm aggregating Raw and SD tag matches.

There's a good division if you add them together as you can get some fresh matches in there. If nothing else just rotate some teams in and out for the sake of keeping things from getting stale.

 

[Navi]

So let me get this right Reigns doesn't wrestle anymore except for the odd match. Last time I saw him in the ring was against Jordan a couple of weeks ago. Can't remember the time before that.

 

[klunderbunker]

Well that's qite the visual.

 

[klunderbunker]

Well that's quite the visual.

 

[klunderbunker]

How sad is it that I knew it was going to be Crews because I knew this was the kind of spot he would be in?

Halfway through Curt on the Mic and I kinda expected it to .-.

 

[Navi]

Crews desperately needs a gimmick. Maybe he should take over Ziggler's since he seems to have abandoned it in favour of finding a new one.

 

[Navi]

115 losses Jesus Christ.

I think he could benefit from an attire or in ring change. He really strikes me as like a create-a-wrestler preset.
