I have seen Titus on a few matches on NXT and he looked fine in them but I will watch more. Maybe he isn't that good in the ring, after all.

I absolutely LOVED that opening segment with Triple H. I had forgotten how good Triple H is on the mic and he was so terrific there. Reigns said he wouldn't accept the offer 'today'. Reigns, as I have mentioned before, I dislike as I don't like his in ring work or his lack of charisma. I don't like poor brawlers. Reigns v Ambrose does look very likely now. That wouldn't be bad at all. Will build fair heat and will sell.

Titus is a guy who can deliver for short matches but would really struggle at anything over 10 minutes. He could develop but I'd definitely sit him in the hot tag powerhouse category.

I think Reigns has plenty of charisma, he isn't a great speaker but that isn't as important as we make it out sometimes, you rarely see him not at least LOOKING like a bad ass and he is solid enough in the ring. I'm definitely in the "turn him heel and everything will be fine" camp.

Also Shaemus is so underrated, loved his work with Cesaro. Hopefully Cesaro didn't hurt his arm too badly.

Instead of a US Title and an Intercontinental Title, would be better to retire one of them and have a Cruiserweight title. Some thing many wrestlers who graduate from NXT can aim to win.

Sheamus is fine. Reminds me of William Regal. Will give you a good match most of the time. In the match v Cesaro, I was looking for more moves from Cesaro, so was a bit frustrated. However, by the end of the match it was lovely. KO and Cisaro put up such a terrific match a few weeks back. After this match, I have started rooting for Cesaro more. He is such a top wrestler as he can do some great moves and carry a match really well. I am liking him more than KO now, some how.

I really liked how Dean Ambrose and Breeze's match went. There was a few fast moves which kept happening. Usually, when Dean Ambrose has some thing like that, it becomes tedious as the other wrestler can't carry it or Ambrose looks like carrying it too fast. Here, it just kept building the tempo.

I had made a point many months ago how I am never a fan of tag and three on three matches randomly put together on raw. Never expanded on it. Have seen so many times in the WWE that they book 4 or 6 wrestlers who are essentially terrific at singles matches as teams. It's a roulette who will be booked with whom. It's lazy booking and I don't enjoy watching these at all. They were cool when Smackdown started, if you guys remember. However, usually they are tenous. I don't mind a good booking for them mind, like Neville working in one this week.

RAW almost always ends with a 6-man tag. It's awful. They never mean anything. There's never any build towards a match. All matches used to mean something, there used to be a story there. Now it's just 3 random babyfaces against 3 random heels. Lazy is the perfect word for it.

Eh? They've built New Day as being one of the more dominant factions and this is almost certainly leading to Usos challenging them for the titles at SS.

The IWC six man tag hate is definitely based around the 3 random unconnected heels vs. 3 random unconnected faces matches we had consistently earlier in the year.

New Day feuding with a tag who pick up a babyface (ie hometown hero Neville?), fair enough.

Eh wait so Kane and Undertaker are back already? ok. Bray loses again at the PPV I guess. What even happened when the Wyatts did that smoke thing a couple of weeks ago?

The PPV follows the next Raw right? It's a pretty typical formula.

Raw:Heel triumph
Next Raw: Face triumph
Next Raw: Challenge laid, staredown
PPV

Maybe chuck in an extra triumph to either side there on an earlier Raw. People are getting waaaaaay too critical of whether or not this means Bray wins or loses. I'd still be saying he wins at this stage.

Haha I am torn on Grado. One the one hand I find him quite amusing, and he's clearly worked out a way of getting a crowd going. But on the other hand I remember the doco the BBC did about him and his buddies a while back where he came across as a slobbish idiot.
