Tonight Raw should be an interesting one has WWE is in a position that is unfamiliar to them; more than 5 weeks to promote a PPV. As it stands right now we have 8 weeks until the Royal Rumble and no longer term storyline really going on. Shield members and Rollins/Ambrose are looking to recapture the Tag Titles; my assumption is that will regain them back and the loss few weeks back was just a way to get them in another match for Survivor Series.Paige returns to the ring tonight for the 1st time in over a year against the Sasha Banks. This should be a much bigger deal but unfortunately everyone who's been in the Women's Division more than 90 days are just ice-cold. As talented as Banks is the lack of creativity by Vince has led to the entire division feeling stale . The main event story will most definitely be Roman Riegns and Samoa Joe, and I for one am interested to see how Vince tries to get the chosen one cheered against the extremely popular heel Joe. Roman as yet to be embraced by the fans and the constant force feed by Vince isn't doing him any favors.
With this being the final show before Survivor Series Smackdown I thought turned in some memorable performances throughout the show of course with the climax coming at the end of the show with the predictable retaliation from the Raw wrestlers.
The moment of the night had to be Charlotte capture the Womens Title in her hometown of Charlotte concluding with Ric Flair coming out to embrace his daughter was an A+ moment no matter how you look at it.
I was shockingly incredibly impressed with Daniel Bryan promo which gave fans to chance to belive there is a real creditable possibly that AJ Styles could beat Brock Lesnar this Sunday.
While the final scene had some of the exact same issues as the 1st under siege angle, but if your going to do an ridiculous angle then going all in and at least making the segment entertaining is the best way to go.
Last night Raw was definitely one of the more exciting ones in awhile. First having the full reunion of The Shield was nice to see and there upcoming match with The New Day is expected to be a night stealer.
Paul Heyman & Brock Lesnar were tremendous as usual and it was blatantly obvious that as performers taking on AJ Styles as an opponent rather than Jinder Mahal is more creatively satisfying.
My big final take home from Raw is that WWE is going all in for Raw versus Smackdown; bringing back part time wrestlers such as HHH,Kurt Angle and John Cena for this big match. My only fear is that the newer performers aren't hurt whenever their in the ring with the established stars buy over selling.
It's very difficult in the Rap genre to write about relationships in a way that doesn't get a certain amount of criticism, and well of course the Iconic Ludacris has always been able to pull this off with time after time. ENJOY! !
