I usually watch the first segment of RAW Live then watch the rest the next day but I ended up watching the first hour, Seth put on a masterclass and possibly the greatest individual performance in WWF/E history, I'm not usually fussed with a wrestling heavy show but I couldn't take my eyes off the first two legs in this match, one hour of RAW and it propelled Rollins back into the top echelons of the division, he's instantly on a par with Lesnar/Reigns/Cena again, simple but effective.

As much as I enjoyed the Gauntlet match I dont understand what the purpose was. Especially Seth going over an hour for no kayfabe reason. All he's done is tire himself out for Sunday. And why did Miz pin Balor? Why would he not get himself instantly disqualified so that A. He gets good heel heat. B. He keeps himself fresh for Sunday in Kayfabe and C. He doesnt have to face Braun Strowman. It was good, but these wee loopholes in the storytelling bug me, probably more than they should.

Those interviews after the wrestler lost were good aswell. Still doesn't change the fact Reigns is winning the Chamber.
