Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
IIRC Charlotte was supposed to come break up the pin and screwed up the finish

Correct, the match had Charlotte and Dana Brooke in it also and Becky didn't kick out because one of them was supposed to break the pin up.

Just didn't make sense for their characters. Terrible.

Orton on top def didn't work out. Storyline wise it did make the Batista/Triple H Feud bigger.

Speaking of...2005 RAW just has NO wrestling. It's allllll promos.

Buuut...it's still interesting because they have Cena/HHH/Angle/HBK/Flair/Christian*/ Slutty Lita and Edge DOING the promos. Even Batista comes off as money here because he's playing off the best. I guess that's one way to play to your strengths.

*I'm not counting Y2J, he was going through a funk at this time and had one foot out the door.
 
But seriously, I don't even see huge potential in Strowman. The dude is a big man and that's literally it. Guy has no in-ring skills. Has no charisma what so ever. And doesn't seem to have any kind of ability to talk. Even Great Khali had more potential than Strowman. Apollo Crews is a guy who has tons of "huge potential" because it's clear he has the tools, he just needs to figure out how to use them. Strowman doesn't even look like he has the tools.

Ain't nobody got time for a juiced up Samwell Tarly, friends.

It was premature and they did it just to smite Brock really. And according to DM, Vince didn't think Benny was a draw so he kind of sabotaged his run. Listen to Lapsed Fan WM 20 or 30, he goes into it.

I get the taking the title of Benoit, though. I don't know if he was a draw or not but I could see how he wouldn't be. If that was the case though, why put the title on Orton?

I think WWE screwed themselves over by allowing that disappointing match between Ambrose and Lesnar to go ahead as it did.

If it had lived up to expectations and been a brutal fight to the near-death, regardless of the winner, they could have Brock come back and fight Champ-Ambrose "the man who beat/nearly beat you at Wrestlemania". Brock could win and look strong and give Ambrose a program to try and topple Lesnar, making him look more legit than he has in months.

Because Brock was the youngest reigning champion and Vince wanted to get that off of him. And Benny wasn't a draw because Vince booked him like that. It was stupid imo to do him like that. Anyone can draw if you book them well but Vince decided to put him against his favourite guy when he doesn't see anything in them ...... Kane.

Hmmmm War Games? Bischoff is speaking my language. 6 guys involved? Booker, HHH, hbk, kane, rvd

Elimination chamber? Wtf

Rikishi would never draw.

Ha OK the Brock things makes sense now. I mean it's terrible, but I just wanted a reason.
