If you watched RAW tonight I feel sorry for you. It went almost 3:15 minutes and it seems that nothing got accomplished, which was quite unlike SD's No Mercy last night. That show came in at 2 hours and 30 minutes and story lines were moved along.
RAW has a bigger roster, the cruiserweight division and three hours to put on a great show. The problem is they can't seem to do it. I'm seriously confused right now as too what the main storyline is. You think it would be Owens, him being the champ and all, but you also have Reigns/Rusev and Sasha/Charlotte. Oh and not to forget New Day and their tag titles.
To tell you the truth it just seems like everyone is spinning their wheels just trying to get to the next PPV. We are seeing basically the same matches each week. and I'm not sure the story gets advanced at all. You would think with the brand split and that freeing up some space others might get a shot at moving up. But they aren't.
Sheamus and Cesaro the most unlikely duo ever will probably find their feet and might even win the titles at some point. They have to get by the Club first though, who still can't win a match against New Day.
Sami Zayn and Neville, both good wrestlers got stuck in a tag team tonight, I think just to get them on the show. Neither one has any sort of a feud happening. We were told they volunteered because Foley was scrambling around backstage to find a team. Are you kidding me?
All the WWE has done is to create more room for the ones at the top of the ladder and everyone else is an afterthought. Shit even Braun Strowman gets matches every week, he has a story line, Zayn can't buy one.
And then there is this imaginary battle with SD. Well there is no battle at all. SD is the clear winner with a fast paced exciting to watch show that leaves you wanting more. So they can stop that shit right now. When I can watch a RAW and come away thinking they did just a good a job as SD does then they've won. Until then they might be the flagship show, but they are heading into troubled waters. All the starpower is on SD now, and they are making it work. RAW is stumbling around in the dark and not one of them can find the light switch.
