Good to see all the hype surrounding R.A.W. and the Superstar Shake-Up has led to an increase in activity on PW.

Has there been hype? I think we universally agreed that most of the guys we couldn't give a shit about got moved to Raw?

Probably won't get many hits in the US live since most people probably will be working at that time on Friday.

Not everyone works 9-5, I don’t think there’s a way of finding out but i would be interested in the amount of streams it receives in the US.

From jobbers in SmackDown, to jobber jobbers in RAW. "Welcome," Ascention.

I'm not sure if I prefer this to Ascension getting squashed by AoP, who are clearly the monster team Konor/Viktor were supposed to be.

I'm sure you'll get that match at some stage...

I'm not really watching, mostly listening. And I'm really getting baffled by the commentary. I know COle has done it every week, but I don't get why Cole continues to bash matt hardy, how is that haelpful. And Graves just compared the ascension to a triple A basbeball player who can't maek it to the majors

Raw got boned.

I switched to Something Else To Wrestle With.

The Graves thing seemed half-opposite to me.

He was saying top-notch minor league prospects, like the Ascension, sometimes struggle in the majors but need a change of scenery and a soft restart (like moving brands) to make everything click.

I think? Also half-listening.

That looks more comfortable then the normal folding chairs.

Funny that KO and Sami get cushioned leather seats, while the guests get flimsy lawn chairs.

I'm okay with the lawn chair. I mean, this is the first episode, after all -- they've got budget concerns. They'll be able to afford a better chair a few months from now.

I can't believe they just called Kurt on forgetting about Jordan in that Stephanie program two months ago. :lol:

Probably hurts less when you get hit with them, too.

That's Kevin and Sami for you -- they've seen how most WWE talk shows end and they're thinking of everyone's safety! What stand-up fellows!

Come on Seth you ran Raw when you had lackeys.

Could Dallas/Axel's search for someone new to hench for end with a new 3MB?

notice they said "superstars enter at regularly scheduled intervals" about the saudi rumble. Not specifying an interval. Wouldn't be surprised if it was a minute or even 45 seconds.

Oh look, Apollo got his last name back.

Wish Drew had Broken Dreams or The Ghost in Us theme instead.

Why Apollo's name has been changed by the WWE

We received an email from WWE confirming that Apollo's name was being changed to just Apollo and that the reason why was to avoid any possible allusion to Nikolas Cruz, the perpetrator of the recent mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, Florida.

I guess it's true that there have been enough mass shootings since.. FEBRUARY  that I've already forgotten Nikolas Cruz' name.

Fucking great promo by Drew

Drew/Dolph look like a before/after wax & tan combo.

LMAO, Jinder...

Sweet! RAW's in Bizarro World next week.

GABLE WINS!!!

uh oh, fans cheered for gable, better not push him

It's a shame Gable isn't about five inches taller because he's really good.

I was kinda hoping Axel/Dallas' shirts would continue to slightly change as they were rejected by wrestler after wrestler until they looked like they were wearing this

How is this man NOT the Universal Champ?

I agree, baron corbin should be universal champ

I thought this show was going to be real rough as a three hour ad for TGRR but it's actually been quite fun. The Braun/Lashley tag match was great with an amazingly hot crowd, and that Alexa promo was hilarious.
