RAW goes off the air with Rusev laid out at ringside and Reigns standing tall on the stage.

I really hope that there's some pay off to this jericho and owens tagging together and not just the fact that they can be called Jeri-KO. Whilst I like enzo and cass, Owens could be doing better if this is just because they don't have anything for him

Just watched the rusev and reigns segment, it's only took them over a year but finally the crowd (predominantly) where behind him as a face character

These Braun squash matches are a bit dull, I don't see where they're leading to. His character has nothing about him without the wyatt family (not that it was ever a gripping character anyway)

I quite like the Jericho/Owens hook up, while I'd expect there to be some kind of pay-off I don't think there needs to be an instant rush to it, Jericho is doing the best work since his 08/09 run and being involved with him will do Owens no harm at all.

I'm not a fan of Strowman at all but think these squashes are by far the best way to utilise him, I'd have him doing them for another month before giving him someone who can work and take him on dance and hopefully get him over.

The Rusev/Reigns segment was decent, really enjoyed the Ruse/Cesaro match and I think it's great how they seem to be looking to push these guys.

Wasn't too big on Rollins monologue, didn't feel he had to go as long as he went, Bálor's segment was very well done.

I'm not the biggeston WWE humour buy actually enjoyed the Dr Anderson & Dr Gallows segment, plenty of ball references

This was a hard watch this week.

Decent kick off with Enzo & Cass and Jericho & Owens - that has the potential to be very entertaining.

The whole thing stopped off at boresville for what felt like about 5 hours after that. I just felt like I was watching last week's show all over again. Plus the crowd were dead but for a frankly bizarre "this is awesome" chant in the middle of a "this is average at best" match between Sheamus & Cesaro.

The Seth Rollins promo literally turned my stomach when he started talking about Finn Balor not being his real name. I don't think the crowd liked it either. I get that it was probably to draw out the demon thing, but I don't necessarily think that's the best way of doing it. Not to mention that if we go down the "not a real name route" we'll be there for a long time

The Brock & Orton segment was nice - made Brock seem like a rogue element totally at odds with the product. And it was nicely soundtracked.

And whilst Rusev & Lana was a terrible drawn-out segment, I think it was cleverly necessarily so - the longer they dragged it out the more likely it was that Reigns would get a cheer when he finally broke it up. Lana is a terrific heel to be fair.

Hopefully the Bubba Ray disgust at D-Von will lead to a Bully Ray releasing split. Don't think the Dudley's are relevant any more, and Bully Ray could add something to the mix.
