Official Wrasslin' Thread (renamed to reflect the discussion) (15 Viewers)

To recap, Raw had:

-Montez Ford apparently getting poisoned and falling unconscious in the middle of a match.

-Shane McMahon's midlife crisis Fight Club. Complete with TV-14 strippers and jump cuts every .5 seconds. (This will be dropped and forgotten by October at the latest).

-Technical glitches throughout the show caused by a mysterious force.

-What looks to be Vince and Bruce Pritchard's take on Antifa. No way this ends well.

-Playing up a potential angle between a manager and a contestant from The Bachelor.

-Shayna Bazler and Sasha Banks have a singles match that goes to DQ because...Asuka attacked Bayley?

-Dominic Mysterio is facing Seth Rollins at Summerslam for ripping his father's eye out.

On the one hand, they did try something different. On the other hand, that seems to be "What if Vince Russo's slightly less insane cousin booked the show?"
 
Nope. Don't care. Worst part is that, IMO, Rollins is doing some of his best character work with this gimmick and it's being wasted in this feud.

Completely agree. You'll never hear him complain though because he's the ultimate yes man.

For real. They have been doing this Mysterio family program for way (way) too long. I can't believe they thought it was worth wrecking the credibility of Aliester Black for Dominik Mysterio's sake. Not to mention how many times this kid, who we've never seen actually wrestle, has punked Raw's top heel and his minion (who's pretty dang capable in the ring).

Rollins is dialed into this character but has to keep repeating the same messages over and over again because they won't move on from this feud. Let him move on and do something interesting with someone else.

I'm not sure if he's cleared to get back in the ring yet (or if he ever will), but that tease between Rollins and Samoa Joe was awesome.
 
And this thing with Sasha and Bayley has gone on for so long that I don't care anymore.

And it doesn’t help that they have another nonsensical ending to a match with one of the few female stars they have left.

That ending was especially bad when you consider how they allowed Bayley to wail on Kairi Sane without ending the match last week (even though Stephanie said the Sasha would lose if Bayley got involved).

Matches don’t even have pinfall or submission finishes anymore.
 
So uhhhhh, Marty Jannetty...



:saywhat:
 
Marty's social media is a wild ride. Last year I think it was he was openly debating having sex with a girl he believed may possibly be his daughter. There's lots of debate as to whether this stuff is just the ramblings of a mind damaged by decades of drug and alcohol abuse+in ring damage or if he's legit, but either way it's a complete disaster.

Yeah. Poor fella hasn't been the same since they split he and Shawn up. Boy did things go in different directions with those two.
