This NY crowd is worse. When a crowd responds to crap with silence, WWE gets the message and eventually realizes what they're showing isn't working. With yesterday's crowd, WWE will interpret that as interest…despite the noise having nothing to do with the terrible show. Then we'll be given more of whatever event…

No matter how well performed the segment was, the Foley part was the same old hot garbage the Raw writers always come up with. It's frustrating to watch a character like Stephanie, who took no physical blows and really drove home the point that she's above everyone. For everyone saying the Mick/Steph stuff was good,…

They need some way of keeping warm up there lol

Y'know, I hate to admit it, but Raw had some good moments last night. The best was the Russian hacker joke that Lana and Big E performed. Although the setup was kind of long, and that may include the Bo Dallas bit last week, the punchline was good. I'm guessing the whole ice cream plot was setting this up.

I thought I would give Raw one last chance to keep me as a weekly viewer, but they failed. Badly.

Early in the game, Cloud and Aeris enter Wall Market. This was an amazing parallel to the 2016 election. On one side, there's a guy named Don who has a brothel and he and his gang are all in shock when a cross dresser finds his way in. On the other, there is a shady corporation trying to take over the world through…

For me, the biggest cheer was a tie between Amore's and Undertaker's eliminations. Undertaker doesn't belong on the major stage anymore. He doesn't have the stamina for this. Amore I just can't stand.

One other positive about Alexa: It seems that she has the freedom and/or natural talent to react to the crowd and not get thrown off. My favorite line from last night: "Boo me all you want. I'm still champ. It doesn't matter." Whether or not her crowd reactions are preplanned (an if…then scenario) or made up right…

Finally! Someone else was thinking the same things I was. There were a few more issues:
- HHH's music plays and gets the crowd wound up…only to have no HHH show up. And it wasn't good trolling either; Triple H's whereabouts were never mentioned again. Why would you do that to your audience?
- We got two segments: one…

Variety? No. I saw about 15-20 minutes of yapping followed by 2.5 straight hours of men's matches. Then five minutes of women's action…then I turned it off.

The only times that I heard those punky chants were when Cena just came out and when fans got bored during the first part of the main event. I'm guessing the latter happened during a commercial break.

As good of storytelling as it is to watch Kevin Owens talk down to Charly Caruso, it would be much better if (or when?) Charly starts fighting back. It really makes me want to see Charly finally snap at him.

On first impression, I thought James was going to be a prop in a story between Carmella and Dasha. I still think so, but time will tell if I'm right or not.

They could avoid having heel vs heel simply by turning AJ face. Fans are already cheering for him, anyway. AJ vs. the Miz would be great entertainment.

Roman has speared Stephanie and knocked out Shane this year. He might be the one person the McMahon siblings can agree on this year.
