I do wonder what it will take for significant change in that department.
Can’t remember the last time I even taped RAW to fast forward through, the booking is dire and the show is even longer.
I do wonder what it will take for significant change in that department.The obvious answer is Vince either dying or getting too sick/feeble to be hands-on - he's too stubborn to step back or take a break and let someone try something new. With Vince effectively being the channel that ideas have to run through before they can make TV, there is also the good chance that the RAW guys just write stuff that they know he's going to like/approve, rather than potentially wasting time crafting something he might reject, especially given he's been known to make them re-write the show a few hours before airtime anyway.
Sucks there’s no real competition either. They’ll just run it mediocrely along until he’s gone.
Just watch the A Show instead…
Once stephanie started getting involved in creative things were always going to turn out bad
I’m not even mad the ref fell for this distraction…
A-Show champs = AJ, Alexa, American Alpha and Ambrose
I like alliteration.
Pissweak basketballers. Shove your eye back in the socket and finish the ■■■■■■ match!
I have to have wisdom teeth taken out Monday morning (in the chair). Positive though - Rumble at 11am Monday.
Any good* sites where I can watch it live? Been years since I watched a full ppv,
*good = free
Just pay $10 for the network stinge bag
If you’ve never had the Network before you can get your first month free. I think.
AJ / Cena was extremely good.
Was it brilliance or stupidity to put Roman at #30? It was after all the only way you could get people to cheer for an Orton win

It’s probably the most self aware WWE has ever been. They knew the reaction he’d get (as well as the horror of the fans when it looked like he would win it), so it makes Ortons win look much more palatable in comparison.
So does Orton now go after Cena?
WM likely card:
Cena / Orton
Taker / Reigns
Goldberg / Lesnar
Owens / ???
Such a dissapointing royal rumble match. So many big names and it was such s let down. Reigns coming out was just the cherry on top. The superman punch is one of the worst all time finishes in wrestling history.
Cena…you just knew it was coming but at least AJ looked really strong.
Taker looked awful tbh, looked overweight. Really slow. This mania needs to be his last. Please dont have him face reigns at mania.
I really hope Bray somehow gets added to the title match with cena and orton and wins the belt. There is no way they can do cena v.s orton for the millionth time.
The only highlight was goldberg and lesnar.
The worst part was they brought in all the big names right at the end of the match instead of coming in bit by bit. And if reigns could enter the rumble where was AJ?
Orton / Bray is the rumoured WM match, but if so, why not let Bray win the Rumble? You keep hearing they want to push him, so do it now. Orton gains nothing with this win. Bray could use it more than just about anyone.
I cancelled my network account today.
The Rumble match was quite entertaining, it didn’t have any lulls… but the latter portion was infuriating. Promising midcarders with good stories are there to be flippantly tossed aside for the benefit of old farts and part-timers.
Riolio, not been watching Smackdown? Randy has been getting much love from the fans there.
Sure. But he’s a known quantity whose interesting st the moment in one third of a tag team. He’s had his time. Give Bray a decent push.
If you believe the rumours, Cena won purely 1) to set up the later record-breaking 17th title and 2) to be a transitional champ to Bray in two weeks time. Who wins out of Wyatt/Orton, dunno.
It’s undeniable that the crowd is behind all of Wyatt, Orton AND Harper, even when set against each other. Which is a weird dynamic.
As for the rumour on the other side (Goldberg vs Lesnar for the universal title): urgh.
