This is the first RAW I've watched in a year:
1) Why is the crowd dead?
2) Why does Ryback look silly?

Ryback burst his own lip with the ladder. The guy is hilariously clumsy.

There's a Twitch.tv app, and it's free. You should go find it, since there's not really a better way to watch it on mobile.
No, he botched the link. It's on Twitch.
1.) Nobody cares about the product besides Cena because that's how the WWE built it.
2.) WWE

"But Vince, the briefcase is blue. It's clearly meant for the WHC--"
"It's my company, damn it! We've been over a YEAR without Cena winning the title!"
"Yes, but he's main-evented more PPVs than Punk anyway"
"SHUT UP!"

I liked how Ryback only said Feed Me More a few times there before the Done. He used to say it like 10 times and it just came off as too much and awkward.

I saw the notes on his wrist! You could tell Miz was shaken!

should've known that was coming
He was showing some actual personality there, wasn't he?

I like how Punk tried so hard to salvage that last segment. The crowd was super dead
1. Probably for the same reason you haven't watched Raw in a year.
2. He is a mutant.

You'll never live it down, my friend ^^
Not for the "Feed Me More" stuff. They were going nuts at that point.
Like it or not, it's gotten over in a big way. Now it's on booking and Ryback's abilities to see if they can do anything with it that translates to $$$.
Enjoyed the majority of the show tonight. Not bad, WWE.
Things that were good:
-Cesaro
-Cara/Del Rio
-Punk and Miz spitting venom at each other
-Maddox
-The Shield fucking up Randy Orton
-Ziggler
-Sandow and Santino
-Hell No
-Sheamus and Cena's match ending
The bad:
-John Cena talking to Vickie
-Vince and Vickie's awkward in-ring stuff
-John Cena being Cena

lol it's big for the first few seconds then dies out when the crowd remembers that it has to involve Ryback.

After he hit punk with the ladder, he pulled it in too quickly before throwing it and it hit him in the mouth.

I can't imagine anyone wanting "Feed Me More" splattered across their chest/hat, though--with the possible exception of some ironic overweight people. Then again, Cena's merch is vomit-inducing and sells a ton, so what the fuck do I know?

They like the chant but damn are they dead for all his matches and anything else involving Ryback. But overall dead crowd for everything
Not my kind of thing either, but it's arguably the hottest thing in the 2nd half of this year for them. One of those crazy things created by the "machine" that clicks way more than it really should.
As I said, that's on booking and Ryback's abilities then. They chant it right on cue so it shows the people are paying attention. It's on Ryback and WWE to figure out ways to keep that attention.

I think he needs a few more moves and holds. His offense is too predictable as is
Its better for sure.
Hmm...maybe get Bryan to bulk up and shave his head so they have a good gimmick and a competent wrestler/guy on the mic.
But yeah, they can only hide Ryback's shitty skills for so long. It's one thing if he sucked on the mic, but we've seen that he sucks in the ring too, so it's harder to hide.
lol You hoping they go bankrupt?
I'm watching it for the first time. Woohoo.

Ehh, t'was just another boring Raw to me. Only things I really enjoyed were Cesaro being great in an ok fatal 4 way, and Punk running circles around The Miz, who's absolutely terrible and came off like a juvenile amateur tonight. The end brawl was decent, but didn't feel earned since The Shield got no mic time to further their cause.

His segment with Sheamus was pretty boss.

From now on, this will likely become the defacto response to any Miz criticism.
I approve, even if I think the Miz is OK.

Honestly, Miz has potential as a face, if WWE plays it right (hint: they won't). He should be the perennial underdog that Cena pretends to be, with heels putting him down as a nobody, B-tier reality star etc.. Then, every once in a while, Miz beats the odds. It should be Face Writing/Booking 101, but, you know. . . WWE.

I understand what you're saying, but just because he's a face doesn't mean he has to be a goofball. It feels like he's doing a bad parody of a babyface

Nah, The Miz was awful tonight. Just really bad. He managed to tank their first segment, then the lie detector stuff came off like Punk was ad-libbing and still killing him. Any semi-smart crowd (meaning IQ, not wrestling knowledge) should've been popping huge for Punk.

Sometimes Ziggler seems to have the same problem with his promos/dialogue, not as often as Miz but he does.

I think he's losing his touch, I think he's losing his touch, Vickie I think he's losing his touch, I think he's losing his touch. Vickie I think he's losing his touch...
