    I like Balor got too be honest but I hate when people debut and immediately get pushed to the moon
    Should have had a nice feud with Jericho/Zayn/KO first then moved up to the title picture

    Raw definitely threw down the gauntlet last night. Balor showing up and already a serious contender, * yeah! The 2 fatal 4 ways were both solid contests, and 4 matches going 15 minutes were good sign of things to come hopefully.

    Sasha winning [​IMG] Highlight of the night for me, the match she had with Charlotte, and there were some big spots in that, but it was one of the smaller ones, that little 'Eddie' moment, of tossing the belt at Dana and acting hurt, to get Dana tossed from ringside, that was beautiful.

    Only downside for me was the way the tag division was treated. New Day doing a clebration filler was a dud (this just fails every time - remember that Raw birthday one they did? was a dud as well), the only thing good about any of it was Anderson & Gallows busting it up. Then Shining Stars disstracted by Truth playing Pokemon, so that Enzo & Cass can get a win via distraction... seriously? They (the tag division) deserve better than this, but by splititng them to basically 5 teams per show leaves it pretty threadbare, so there will probably be more of this. :87:

    Will be interesting to see how SD responds.

    "WWE Universal Championship" is a stupid name. Sounds like something everyone gets a belt in just for participating.

    This week's edition of Monday Night RAW, featuring Battleground fallout, Finn Balor's debut and the first broadcast since last week's Draft, drew 3.338 million viewers. This is up from last week's pre-Draft episode, which drew 3.133 million viewers.

    The first hour of this week's show drew 3.412 million viewers, the second hour drew 3.350 million viewers and the final hour drew 3.254 million viewers.




    WWE is focusing on the following points:

    * How will Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan maintain SmackDown's success?

    * Who will come after the WWE Title on SmackDown Live?

    * Will chaos create cash for SmackDown Live with stars like Randy Orton, Kane and Baron Corbin?

    * American Alpha, Alexa Bliss, Mojo Rawley and Carmella are coming to SmackDown

    * Will Superstars like Alberto Del Rio, Dolph Ziggler, Zack Ryder and Kalisto reaffirm that SmackDown is their house?

    Doesn't look like they'll make anyone fight it out for the spot then, will probably be Cena.
