Gotcha.
Well, Payback is in Chicago, and he's facing Styles, so he's going to be booed regardless.

Zayn being hurt would be the hugest coincidence ever because it was clearly scripted from the beginning to have him miss the match with an "injury." But I keep seeing it float by on my twitter feed.

This show did an awful job of building the future for everyone but Enzo Amore. Motherfucker made himself a star in a minute with a promo about having a micsaber for the haters and having the gift of gab and the gift of jab. Fatal 4 way was a blast too - we got AJ Styles vs. Cesaro vs. Owens main eventing the post-WM Raw for a WWE Title shot. Incredible. AJ winning was a huge surprise too.

I think they are aiming for a version of Punk / Cena MitB 2.0. I think they're going all in on Roman getting booed out of the damn building in Chicago, and what better way to do that then using Styles.

Have the PPVs been any better? Last I saw was... whatever the last Taker/Brock match was.

No matter what the outcome maybe, Roman vs AJ is something I look forward to. Hope it works out for everybody involved. No one's getting buried. Roman should keep the title.
I really REALLY hope Sami's ok. Like that table bump leads me to believe that this is all a work and it's just stewing the feud with Owens, but I don't see Sami sitting out for this long, that early into his main roster debut for this to be part of the storyline.
Something's up, but I hope nothing's up.

Not really. Except for less commercials. But they're only once a month. Way more bearable. Weekly would be death.

So watching ride along and Nikki apparently hates farts with a passion. She said plug it up damn it.

I doubt Zayn is legit hurt. Also, I liked that last match a lot but if you're going to bring Cesaro back shouldn't he win? The ending almost felt disappointing because I was waiting for the Cesaro victory.

Also crowd was ok for the most part except for the women's title part. Shut the fuck up Bailey isn't here, appreciate the talent in the ring.

In their defense, Charlotte has no business cutting a serious babyface promo right now. And then justified that assumption by the fans by going straight back to heel mode
It was definitely cringeworthy because it seemed like a legit from the heart promo at first (and probably was) but this isn't the Hall Of Fame or a Pre-Show, it's a Raw promo

That was Charlote's fault she doesn't know how to handle a crowd like that. She basically broke kayfabe by acknowledging them and encouraging them. She started fumbling during her speech.
Payback is in Chicago. I am pretty sure it will be AJ vs Reigns in Chicago.
My goodness.

Owens should feel sad if AJ shows up and starts main eventing PPVs within 3 months and he still hasn't come close.

AJ's an actual great wrestler who can look like a star, even with an unfortunate accent. Owen's a guy who never got out of indy spot-fu land when it came to his working ability.

Owens and AJ are both really over and they wouldn't be on the main event of Raw after Mania if they weren't.
but Owens is clearly moving on to endless Sami feud land.
So lemme get this straight,any other day of the year this thread would be filled with people going on about how Miz sucks and he should've never main evented WM and he can't wrestle and wah wah wah but now he's the best choice to be IC champion to you guys?
Miz is probably the only person on the roster that gets genuine heel heat. He's been great since his return and he's a perfect foil to a guy like Zayn or Kallisto or other goody two shoes faces.
Fuck your spoilers.

Those gloves must be selling like crazy on WWEShop
is that why ryback got a singles push?
Ironically, they do want some.

I wonder how they'll explain Finn's absence this entire month on NXT. I figured it might be because of a call-up, but obviously it isn't. So why do you go a whole month of TV without your champion on the show (other than possible backstage segments)?

Now I wish Cesaro comes in with a stripper suit EVERY TIME he enters the ring. Let that be his thing.
You hear Cesaro's music?
He does this.

Get Magic Mike and Magic Mike XXL's Kevin Nash to manage him and print the money.

Honestly, this was a really weird show missing a ton of people and angles. I'm not saying I wanted Stephanie there, but it felt really weird having them lose and then just not be there or do anything, same with Vince - he didn't seem to care Roman won.

A lot of people on the roster have shrunk. Wouldn't be shocked if there's been some sort of crackdown on juice. And of course, he just got back from injury. Gotta give it some time.

Heard AJ earned a title shot at Reigns. Someone is about to go heel. They'd be stupid to not have Reigns go heel here but if it means Bullet Club shows up in yet another attempt to put Reigns over as a face then whatever so long as AJ takes it from him.
BTW did Ryder manage to make it through the night or did Kayfabe news call it and he's already dropped the belt?

Dropped it to Miz due to distraction by Maryse. Rematch on Smackdown. Also Maryse is back in Miz's corner.

Apparently after Raw went off the air, AJ was in tears and was walking around ringside hugging everyone and celebrating.

Yep. This is carny shit. You don't get to turn the carny on and off at a whim. She should have gone out there like Stephanie accepting the Vincent J McMahon Legacy of Excellence Award.
edit - Thinking a little further. Charlotte needs to have a long sit-down with Steph. She can't be the type of heel her father was.
