WWE title picture is actually pretty good for each belt right now. The main titles are hot as ever.
Glad that Judgement Day won the tag titles on Raw because that scene is very slow right now.
I wasn't as impressed with Cena's pipebomb as I was CM punk's pipebomb years ago but it was a good promo. I wouldn't mind if Punk was the last opponent for Cena this December. They are a classic rivalry.

I’ve never paid for him, so I’m just going by what others are saying there. I don’t think it was natural inflation when he raised the price. More like “there’s way fewer of you and I need to pay the divorce lawyers” style gouging.
More and more people have walked away from him, but it is really annoying how often you have to knock back Observer rumors and remind people it’s propaganda at this point. It’s done a lot of damage to wrestling too.
Punk and Cena have great chemistry. I liked how they tied the future main event scene to their Night of Champions match. Gave a few guys the blessing in there.
I was surprised how into the Judgment Day/New Day match the Pittsburgh crowd was. Great match too. I love me some John Dorian McDonagh. Good title change. There are fewer teams on Raw, but this felt bigger than the sum of its parts.
They make a big deal out of the SmackDown tag scene, but I actually feel that it the one connecting least. NXT has Hank & Tank and Briggs & Inamura. SmackDown feels very AEW. They need some star teams in there. Andrade & Fenix are a good start. The Motor City Machine Guns could use a move to Raw. Working with the heels there, including Theory & Waller for the moment, would help them out a lot.
My pipe-dream is for Carlito to return with Eddie and Orlando Colon too and add them to the mix. The Nemeths from TNA too. That’d be some pretty good stuff.
Cena/Cody is going to have Orton drama. I’m low-key hoping Jacob Fatu kind of says nuts to fighting his family and moves against Cena. I don’t feel strongly about Cena’s last opponent, but I would throw Fatu’s name out there. He’s got all the tools, they just need to pull the trigger.
