Since Roode changed his finisher from the pump handle slam to the DDT, he's had nothing but good to great matches. He's a decent talker with good charisma and great presence. He could be a legitimate main eventer if given the chance. Hopefully he'll start a feud with AJ tonight.

I still can't figure out how they managed to get literally every single woman on Raw booed.
Alexa got booed
Bayley got booed
Sasha was booed
Jax always gets booed
I mean, the indifference towards Emma was probably as hot as it got. I think literally every woman on SmackDown would be cheered above anyone on Raw at this point, even Carmella because she at least has Ellsworth as a heater.

I'm glad Ember Moon hasn't gone to Raw yet. She'd be booed within a month.
Headbangers haven't been seen since the Smackdown Live Tag Team tournament.

I mean,
Charlotte Flair
Becky Lynch
Naomi
Carmella
Natalya
all would get bigger pops than anyone they had on Raw. Tamina and Lana wouldn't, I suppose, but they're treating Lana like a huge joke so she probably would at least get an irony pop.

Yea it was either earlier this year or last year around the Raw/Smackdown split. God I can't even remember how long its been since.
If I remember right, Rhyno got a cut on his head from that match.
Last year
Interesting analysis of ol' half-speed Nakamura:

All of them are booked like losers.
Alexa can't beat anyone without cheating; although its a little unusual for her to get heat like she did yesterday (the crowd wanted to just boo)
Sasha only knows one promo and is playing babyface literally because they have no one
else to competently do it.
Bayley gets booed because Vince made her into a woman-child who jobs.
Nia Jax is horrible at wrestling in every way it's possible to be horrible including being dangerous.
Dana is really bad. Emma is just kind of there as filler.
I have no idea how Nakamura would ever hope to carry Jinder to anything resembling a big match.
this happens in every professional sport
you work your ass off, look great, get noticed and then get signed for a big deal... and suddenly you stop trying because you're guaranteed that money, so why bother?
mcmahon jr does not give a fuck about in ring work rate or how strong your style is. he's gonna push who he wants to push and that's the end of it. so why try?

Alexa won the title and beat Bayley three times without cheating.

One of those matches was a weapons match as I recall.
I completely erased this from my memory.

That's not cheating, and that match was basically a squash.
But even ignoring that, she's beaten her twice without cheating.
Let him have his mania moment and then be off.
She's still new. Give it time. She'll have won and lost the belt 5 more times in the next year.

This is one of those dudes who only watched Nakamura through gifs of wrestle kingdom matches previously, huh?

I mean whatever happens in the future is whatever, but the factual right now is that she wins a lot without having to cheat.
I just googled it and it was some not-WWE YouTube upload. I dunno, man. It's Rhyno and his friend vs. The Headbangers -- who currs?

Nah, he's in it as long as they'll pay him well, which they will do because he's over.
My only Knowledge of Nak was GAF gifs and praise by Daniel Bryan and Good Ol' JR.
To be sure a disappointment so far. Yet other GAF favs have done pretty well. Kevin Owens probably impressed me the most the fastest. I was sold quick.
Even D. Bry took me awhile to really be impressed.
