This explains why the crowd is so dark and quiet

Braun in the crowd reminded me of Nicholas, and I got upset for a second.

Braun just took three finishers and kicked out can you say protected
That's not a complaint by the way |

Owens screaming "I'm sorry" to Braun for hurting him.
Guess its time to scratch Strowman's name off the winner's list for MitB. |

The only problem w/ Braun being booked so strong is there isn't anyone believable for him to feud with.

That show wasn't embarrassing to watch. Good job.
Now let's see how Jason Segel finally forgets Kristen Bell. OR WILL HE??? |

It's the exact same problem they have w/ Brock.
You make a dude look indestructible but don't spend enough time building up credible challengers for him. WHO is there for Braun to feud with on RAW, heel wise, after KO? Corbin? Jinder? |

Per Dana White Brock is done w/ WWE this summer...so I think SummerSlam is it for the big dude.
I'd like to see Brock/Braun again but signs seem to be hinting at Brock/Roman at commentary. |

Kinda dick move of Dana to try and spoil Brock's departure if that's actually the case.

Yeah he was talking it earlier today at some press conference about how Brock and Jon Jones want to fight and he thinks it will happen because he said Brock's done w/ WWE at the end of summer he thinks.
So, an unintentional dick move by Dana (but still a dick move) |

Or, you take the time to develop that credible threat just to have him job clean in the big match and make that build a waste of time and pretty much not do shit else with it. :stares at Samoa Joe:

When I lived in LA I did extra work at the Greek Theatre once for "The Scream Awards".
M.I.A. performed there and wanted a bunch of people dressed like college students passed out on stage so I got paid to wear track pants and lay on stage for 90 seconds while M.I.A. did her thing #randomslikstory |

Booker T and Dusty Rhodes will be my forever dream team on commentary and I never got it. |

I actually think Ember was supposed to be the one to kill the streak before Asuka hit the main roster, but the injuries to both parties monkeywrenched that. Instead of being able to have a proper build and give Athena that total badass rub, it kinda fell apart. I feel like Baszy-Basz was kind of an incidental, not a cause. I still think they had the idea of Deville < Baszler < Rousey in the frame of "We'll make our own MMA-type star... wait, we can get an actual MMA girl? Okay, lets start training... oh, the Rousey deal is going to work? Okay!" Consequence of which is that they just threw Deville in one of the carbon copy stables and hoped nobody would notice, and just kinda left Shayna to find her way because they landed the big fish they wanted in the first place. Luckily for everyone, she isn't one-dimensional. Baszler fell into a great ass groove of total smug cunt who has the legitimacy to back herself up, yet can turn around and play chickenshit heel. On topic: I hate to say it, but let's see how long Ember's direction lasts. WWE doesn't have a great track record with cultivating good things for the long haul, and like to rub all the shiny off the new thing in a couple of short months with oversaturation, then let them fuck off to oblivion and tell them it's their fault they're not being seen.

I missed Raw again but have seen enough to know that Constable Corbin has provided me with the changes I've needed to support him. He may be a real star now.

Longer term, better booking could have served that petty point WHILE having a better main event picture set up. Yes, even with Roman Reigns, who should have been a heel at least twice by now. Dethroning Brock could/should have been a path of redemption and made the crowd jizz themselves so much, it would look like planned pyrotechnics. Instead, it has been mishandled so much for so long, NOBODY wants to see it. Except Vince. |

Ya gotta love how they tried to justify Brock passing Punk's old record by saying he might not defend the title as much as some would like, but, hey, it's OK because he's a prizefighter.

I generally agree with the point of cohesion in storylines, but I don't think they've done the 30-day rule in forever.
