It’s a business that generates money through all the different mediums and potential markets they have, and I guess that is what matters to a business, but as a product? It’s the worst it’s ever been.

For all the anti-HHH sentiment in the other thread, their current (and only) star is someone who is worse than him at every aspect of wrestling, and he is just as stale as HHH at his worst!
So 9.5/10?

Oh, they're still on that shit with Hulu?

The next step is to have him in a segment next week's RAW where they make 800 references to him hitting the ring and wiping out the Mystereos like it wasn't cut.

I ask again: why do they bother airing the show on a streaming service, but giving it the "AM RAW" editing treatment?? They are literally under zero time constraints and a viewer could stream the entire three hours, but they squeeze it for time. It continues to be fucking stupid.

A condensed version of Raw is still a good idea. We get a 1 hour highlights show on a free streaming platform over in the UK but it airs Raw footage from 6 days prior and SmackDown footage from 9 days prior by which point it’s far too late.

Oh wow, the Ezekiel gimmick is brilliant, if it’s what I think it is. Granted, there are so many ways they could fuck it up, but I think the actual idea is brilliant. I can’t remember anyone doing anything like this.

Veer Mahaan should do that ridiculous where he cuts promos that are sexual but he means them completely seriously.

Rhea Ripley & Liv Morgan getting a title shot after losing might not seem like it makes sense, but the story should be that, because Sonya hates Naomi, she gave them a title shot with the promise that Rhea takes out Naomi (which she does). Liv doesn’t agree with this, but it turns out Rhea did it because she is attracted to Liv. Liv says she felt the same way until this Rhea came out. Sonya stirs the pot by revealing she gave them the title shot in exchange for Naomi’s health and sexual favors from Rhea. Turns into a big dramatic mess playing on the feelings of Liv Morgan and Rhea’s actions.

I’m guessing they’re moving away from Cody/Seth for now. That handshake was a “welcome back”/given the approval of the (self-appointment) locker room leader. No idea where they’re going with either guy though.

I got that too. I’m also fine if it moves Seth away from his current persona. But I did have the thought that Cody might show up and challenge Reigns ASAP and Rollins might cost Cody and that leads to a program between Cody and Seth before the “real” Cody/Reigns title match.

But I’m totally down with babyface Seth. Focus on his ring work and get him away from faux-Joker.

If they want to add Cody & Seth to the Raw tag scene while Roman does something with Drew, that could be amazing too.

Imagine a tag scene consisting of RKBro, Cody & Seth, The Grand Jury, Styles & Balor, Alpha Academy, Street Profits and even The Mysterios and The Hurt Business (a re-hired Shelton & Cedric). It couldn’t be permanent, but imagine…

Then The Briscoes show up.

When Seth was a face vs Roman at Rumble I thought his persona worked great and was "fresh" for a face..... by the way he did not really lose clean to Reigns and almost had him beat, so a logical next opponent for Reigns would be Rollins coming around again and staying how he has his number.... they can def kill a few months of content with that feud....

All of those scenarios work. I thought about Cody challenging Roman immediately but it does seem too soon, he needs to re-establish himself with the WWE audience, he shouldn’t be taking the belt from Reigns and he shouldn’t be failing to take the belt from him either (albeit you can sell it as part of the redemption angle).

I could see Seth very easily going back against Cody. I don’t think the audience is ready to embrace Seth as a babyface again yet.

Noid’s tag division looks insane but I’m not sure where that leaves the rest of the card.

Seth is just great at what he does. Each iteration he comes back as a douche, but has the crowds eating from his hands in less than 90 days.


He is a great "wrasslin mind". His entire psyche at Rumble was perfect.
