The tradition of an exciting RAW after Wrestlemania continues with some welcome returns and some very good matches!
The first ever WWE UK Champ is crowned in a very satisfying and entertaining night two of the WWE UK Title Tournament.
The first night of the tournament to crown the first WWE UK Champ was a little uneven, but the night ended with a couple of highly entertaining matches and the promise of a spectacular round two.
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.
This year’s Summer Slam was entertaining, though for the matches that delivered on the hype, there were others that didn’t quite live up to expectations.
NXT gives Summer Slam a run for its money with another great Takeover with some fantastic title matches.
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.
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.
One great match. One classic episode of NXT.
A great show from start to finish.
A forgettable show with one exception: Neville vs Finn Balor.
This week’s episode of NXT wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great either. A pretty average show with announcements of exciting matches in the next few weeks.
Not many things might have been settled here, but this was a good show with some good, or at least interesting, matches.
Despite some of the obvious character-building, the main event made this show. Balor versus Crews was a very good match. Not a classic, but it was a departure from the regular WWE/NXT formula.
This was a week to build up the number one contenders. The matches weren’t surprising, but they were pretty good nonetheless.
The first Full Sail NXT of 2016 set up some possible new directions for its singles title holders, but the show itself got NXT off to a slow start for the year.
After weeks of buildup, Takeover: London was a satisfying payoff and a very good show.
A pretty good show and a nice final stop before Takeover next week. All the right things were built up, and there was some pretty good wrestling on the show as well.
