Re: Raw 6-22-15: Brock Lesnar Must Have Suplexed the Guy in Charge of Making This Thr

Oh man, this week's show was not good. The only things I enjoyed were the opening promo with Heyman and Brock, don't mind Kane beating Ambrose as it was to set up for later, Neville/Kingston was decent but wished it got more time. Of course I enjoyed the main event segment even though it dragged on for very long (15 minutes). Glad Lesnar got to do a lot more action here with him getting pummeled by The Authority. It's about time and was refreshing to see. However with everyone involved being heels, this is confusing on who to cheer for. And don't give me the "but fans are cheering for Brock so he's a face" thing. He's not a face.

Another segment that got me confused was the Bella Twins vs Naomi and Tamina match. Roles are confusing to define here. I still don't care about the Ziggler and Lana random pairing either. The Cena/Owens promo was fine but it might start getting repetitive here on out. Lastly, Reigns/Sheamus was having a decent match until that weird Wyatt segment. I get the point of it but this feels corny. But I guess we've seen cornier things back then.

Brock has been a babyface since the Royal Rumble, if not before then. Just look at the way the matches were set up.

two things...

1) Jamie Noble suffered Broekn ribs last night.

2) How long til Paul Heyman is Rollins Manager

When Michael Cole started yelling suplex city after every german, it jumped the shark for me. They're going to run that phrase into the ground.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, he ruined it for me. Makes me regret buying a suplex city tshirt last week

Just like they do every phrase in WWE. That's like a requirement from them is to mention every single catchphrase or slogan every single week possible.


Also...what happened with Coles lawsuit on Lesnar? It's all like "He assaulted me, I'm gonna sue him". Then Lesnar "apologizes" to Cole and suddenly it's all forgotten about? And what about the cameraman and Booker T. Booker was attacked same fashion as JBL was. And Cameraman was hurt more than Cole.

I recently cancelled cable and have been getting used to streaming Raw from the USA Now app on my iPAD to my AppleTV (why the hell doesn't the USA app on Apple tv have a live option?) and if it wasn't for Brock Lesnar and Kevin Owens, I might not even bother and only watch the PPV's.

After last night's show, Battle ground seems to be shaping up like this. Unless they add an 8th match it looks like Ambrose will go from main eventing 3 ppvs in a row to being left off the card


Rollins vs Lesnar
Cena va Owens
Bray vs Reigns
Orton vs Sheamus
New Day vs PTP
A Divas clusterf***
Ryback vs Big Show vs Miz

Well they've sort of hinted towards Ambrose vs Kane... lets see if they revisit that next Monday.

Can't wait to watch half of those matches again at SummerSlam.

Summerslam? We'll see PTP vs New Day again on RAW/SD. Orton-Sheamus on Raw. Divas match on SD. Ryback-Show-Miz on RAW/SD.

Wyatt-Reigns probably will happen again at SS though. Maybe even Rollins-Lesnar too.

It's funny, we're basically getting programs that used to be in house shows on TV twice a week every week. House show matches used to be a way for guys to develop chemistry, try new things, and basically just make the PPV matches better, but also keeping those matches fresh and not something that was a part of the free TV product at all. Now it's like .. who even cares?

So true. I wish WWE understood that sometimes less is more.
