The timing couldn't be better as I'm going to Raw next week. Thank you the wrestling gods. Moments like these are reasons why I watch wrestling. Life is good, life is good.

So happy Owens is champ, but I'm with AD... HHH essentially taking out 2 of the top guys by himself & then celebrating like he won (while kinda halfheartedly presenting Kevin as the new champ) really doesn't sit well with me. Maybe I'm just too smarky for my own good. Oh well. Kevin Steen is champ & I'm genuinely interested in how this story plays out. And hopefully this means Rollins won't be using the Pedigree anymore.

And hopefully this means Rollins won't be using the Pedigree anymore. you know, now that I'm really thinking about how it happened.. it really isn't that much of a great first title victory, especially with Triple H doing half of the work like you said. I'm not complaining, I was totally pulling for Owens to win this and I marked the fuck out when he did but I really hope this isn't the last time we'll see Owens win a world title. Also hope this Triple H attack has a reason behind it other than "UUUHH I MADE THIS HAPPEN, BOW DOWN TO THE KIIING"

A few thoughts on other parts of Raw:
After their match last night I'm starting to worry Cesaro might ruin himself trying to get something memorable out of these seven matches with Sheamus.
I now find Brock Lesnar so uninteresting it even makes Paul Heyman's mic work seem boring by association.
I'm just gonna go ahead and declare Darren Young vs Titus O'Neil to be the worst feud in the history of Monday Night Raw. Everything wrong with the brand split (and 3 hour Raws) can be summed up by this program.
And I guess we now know three of "The Cruiserweights" who will be part of Raw.
None of those names should be much of a surprise.

Also, I feel like the division should be initially built on the back of Austin Aries as heel champion. He's small, but carries himself like a star. He can talk, and wrestle. I think this is a no brainer, and eventually build someone like Gargano or Cedric as the conquering babyface hero. But let's face it, Strowman will be squashing these guys in a few weeks.

I think this is a no brainer, and eventually build someone like Gargano or Cedric as the conquering babyface hero. I was actually thinking the exact same thing. I'm also hoping against hope that Roderick Strong gets a direct pass to the main roster to help fill out the division. I know it's not official yet, but we all know he's signing. He's already done farewell matches in ROH and PWG, for crying out loud.

"Hmmm, let's give Ziggler a world title push, but he won't win the title he will just be pushed that's all, now that he is pushed I have a great idea, have him challenge The Miz for the IC Title at Backlash"

lol. It's exactly as I thought. Ziggler was just filler because AJ Styles was in a programme with John Cena. Plus, I'm glad he didn't win the WWE World Title, because he would've instantly devalued it, in my opinion.
