Anyone watched NXT yet? I enjoyed the debut of Tyler Bate.
Sol Ruca did a good win vs Alba Fyre and i think she be the female kofi kingston with her skills. The way Alba is going i think she and Isla Dawn will become a tag team and challenge for the tag team titles. I think them two as a team would gel very well.
Overall, alot of the women were showcased last night

It sure is difficult getting through RAW. I'm still trying as I type this. 3 hours is a marathon with tons of dead spots that tend to put me to sleep then I gotta find where to rewind back to then maybe try again tomorrow hopefully getting through the episode before Smackdown airs on Friday.
I like Sol's finisher but they need to work on the setup. Alba just stood there for a good second just watching her setup the move, which looks even worse in the slo-mo replay.
Not a fan of sleeperholds as finishers. I get that they want to associate her with Sgt Slaughter, but they should have developed a new move for her if they were going to give her time off like this.

Will Mr McMahon show up?
Kinda surprising he didn't. It would got a reaction, even if all he did was come out and wave.
Looks like the bellas are on bad terms with wwe. Explains why they weren't on the show, even though they were in the area.
As long as we don't see them get the push they did last year with the rumble, then that's fine with me

I will say Hulk Hogan was a total pro opening up the show. He didn't skip a beat during the bad microphones. He also didn't embarrass himself by outing himself on live national television again.
Nick Khan Reveals Why Vince McMahon Is Ready To Sell WWE, Option Of A Partial Sale

It would explain why Steph "stepped down" so suddenly.
Assuming the podcast is legit, I don't think a CEO is allowed to lie about things like intentions to sell, as that could be seen as stock manipulation (I assume). So it does seem like there is some truth that WWE is up for sale.

This seems more reliable than the rumor mill that's been churning out BS for the past weeks.

Thoughts/Predictions on the Rumble?
People are saying that Cody winning is too predicable, but hey, if people like the result, it might not necessarily be a bad thing. I love surprises more than anyone, but with the injury and the whole returning to WWE angle, I'd be ok with this.
Also am I right in hearing that the Rock might be in it?

For the RR PPV, you're starting off with 2x 1hr+ matches, and assuming a men's championship match in there, you're already at a good 2.5 hrs. So I think it's usually the PPV with the least amount of matches. So 5 matches sounds about right.
I am curious about this "pitch black" match though. If it's just a street fight with the lights turned down, I don't know if that would go over well on TV.

I think it just that no dq and fighting in the dark. I think La Knight wins cos the storyline with Bray and Howdy needs to develop
When we were up to 29 & no Cody, I think we all knew where this was going. Even if it was obvious, I guess it can be good to just give what the fans want. Sometimes.
It gave me flashbacks of laser tag and/or raves from my youth.
Yeah, it was too long. By the time Rollins got to the ring it was time for the next entrant!
Both Rumbles were ok and had their moments and the right people won. The Bray Wyatt match looked cool but was absolutely awful, just like all of Wyatt's matches. The Belair / Bliss match was alright but the main event? Holy shit, I don't think WWE have ever run an angle with long-term storytelling like this. Might be the best executed story I've ever seen in wrestling and there's still plenty more that can happen. Everyone played their parts perfectly.
