    Interesting stuff from the live perspective:
    The Main Event matches pre-show were Tozawa v Pete Dunne and Creed Brothers (wrestling heel) v LWO (Wilde and Dragon Lee)
    During the commercial break after the WyattSick6, Jey popped up from the ring and said “they gone yet, damn have a nice night.”
    The confetti had been around for about 20 min before Seth even came out.

    It’s not the most creative thing in the world, but I really like how they’re gradually turning Liv into Rhea. Liv was wearing similar ring gear, used the Prism Trap (Which I weirdly popped for), and some of her mannerisms reminded me of Mami.
    It really drives home how much Liv is trying to take everything from Rhea.

    The amount of Dakota Kai fans crying and complaining online after this episode was hilarious. There's a clear story set up about how Damage Ctrl needs to change because they keep losing, and Dakota lost in order to further that story. It's not that hard to understand. Also, I'm not sure if Dakota is capable of competing in a ladder match without her knees exploding, so this was probably the best call.

    i am just thrilled and amazed at all the talent that WWE has. And RAW has not felt like a 3 hour show in a long time. I literally look up and its the main event. The fight between Ilja and Shemus and Drew was almost PPV caliber. And just about every match tonight was spot on. I was predicting Kai might win it, but glad Zoey did. And the whole Judgement Day skits are fire. Ultimately I see Finn taking over and bringing Liv in the mix. And his reason for doing so is how Rhea and Priest have always looked past him and mistreated him. There are just so many storylines interweaving here. And the Wyatt Sicks storyline has so many possibilities. It could even be a swerve for them to go after Jey instead of Gable but who knows. WWE is on fire!

    I really do wish they would find Bron Breaker a different finisher because I feel the Spear is a little overused. But velocity at which he actually hits his Spear is unlikely anyone else. He could use that same speed he has and do a flying clothesline so he looks like his father with the Steiner line.

    Bo is doing the best work of his career how that goes is yet to be seen but right now it looks like he's completely losing the plot and I'm loving it.

    I feel the EXACT same qay about Big E returning. It's currently 3-on-2, so that inly makes sense. Maybe this will finally gove Karrion something meaty (pun intended) to chew on, as far as rivalries go. The Power of Positivity will save The New Day!

    At SummerSlam it should be Uncle Howdy vs. Chad Gable. Match begins, Howdy immediately pulls out a flintlock pistol and shoots Gable, winning the match (don't worry, Chad Gable will be back on TV a few weeks later).

    So has finn balor like.... completely retired the demon schtick? That was the whole reason i liked him lol. Wish he'd have been the demon or whatever more, but was still cool when he did do it

      I think so. Karion Cross seems to have retired the dark stuff as well. I guess the thinking is there's only room for so many demons, and the Wyatt's are it. Wouldnt surprise me if he dusted off the costume for a PLE entrance at some point, but otherwise, he's been there, done that, and moving on, would be my guess.

    Liv Morgan is doing a hell of a job with her new gimmick.
