With a lot of talking and three matches of varying quality, this was a pretty average kickoff show. Though the good parts were quite entertaining, there weren’t a ton of them considering the two-hour running time of the show.
A less than great RAW leads us into a PPV that feels less than compelling.
RAW celebrates Halloween with two title matches and a battle royal.
A six cruiserweight tag match highlights a pretty decent episode of Superstars that also featured Neville taking on Titus O’Neil.
The last RAW before Hell in a Cell was okay, but it felt a lot like a pre-show rather than a complete show on its own.
Goldberg returns to RAW to answer Paul Heyman’s challenge in an entertaining show that also had Rusev sharing some family photos, Seth Rollins coming up with a new nickname for Chris Jericho, Cesaro not paying much attention to Sheamus’ match against Big E, and much more!
Good opening, good closer, and some nice matches in between. I liked the show.
Sasha Banks and Charlotte continue to make a strong case for feud of the year in another title match, Jeri-KO takes on New Day in the ring and celebrities backstage, and Lana tells Roman Reigns to go to hell in a good episode of RAW.
A pretty good, but fairly forgettable edition of Superstars.
Braun Strowman beat up Sin Cara and the team of Curtis Axel and Titus O’Neil tried to do the same to Neville and Darren Young in an okay episode of Superstars.
This week’s Superstars features Neville versus Curtis Axel and Jack Swagger versus Titus O’Neil in two okay matches.
Quantity over quality in terms of the matches on this show make it an okay but uneven watch.
The crowning of a new Universal Champ highlights a pretty good edition of RAW.
Despite the unfortunate injury to Finn Balor at Summer Slam, this was a good follow-up show to the PPV. A series of matches took place to determine four contenders who will fight to become the new Universal Champ, a probable new contender for Charlotte’s Women’s Title is introduced, and the Dudley Boyz gave what might be a retirement speech.
The last RAW before Summer Slam was a decent show, though the wrestling suffered for the story lines heading into the PPV.
An impromptu US Title match and a cake to the face highlight a pretty enjoyable episode of RAW.
While not as exciting as last week’s show, this RAW was still entertaining for the most part.
Considering the recent draft, this show was a bit underwhelming, but it was fine.
A new start for RAW, and in many ways and a good show. It wasn’t perfect, but it was very entertaining and some big stuff happened. Hopefully they can keep this up.
The last Main Event before the new rosters take effect was entertaining, if somewhat standard.
