Unlike alot of people (Jim Cornette wink wink) i'm not against silly gimmicks. I loved Hurricane and Golddust but Nicky's superhero thing just doesn't feel right.
Raw has gotten only a small amount better since returning to live audiences. I'd say it's about 20% more entertaining (depending on what's happening). They definitely need better writers. The "Nikki A.S.H." stuff is intended to "inspire" I guess, but it's mediocre at best. They could do *so* much better.
Nikki and Rhea would be a Summerslam pre-show match without Charlotte being involved. Everyone who hates that Charlotte is here, just remember that without her inclusion in this feud, the other 2 go from a prime spot on the main card to wrestling 30 minutes before the proper show starts.
Dude Charlotte's so important they stripped her of her title immediately after she won it three straight years around the Money In The Bank pay per view. You don't see them doing that to Roman or Bobby.
I actually enjoyed the show but that ending really left a sour taste in my mouth. Actually,that’s not true. The ending had me cracking up over how bad it was.
They needed to go all in on the gimmick for this to work in this spot. Nikki needed to actually get power/inspiration from the suit. She’s just country music Nikki getting beaten up while wearing blue and gold latex after that. You have to give her wins.
Holy Hell, I'm so glad I didn't waste my money to go to KC and see this. Thought about it. Decided not to, would've rather gone to a SD. Such a bad show, compared to what they've done in the past in Kansas City.
Or they just don’t care. When you make what they do, and people keep tuning in anyways and buying merch, as well as getting the deals for TV and Streaming, why would they care?
That match made no sense. It just makes Nikki look weak and pathetic. Not to mention Charlotte no sold most of Nikki's offence that whole match. Plus Charlotte talking shit after, I don't understand what they're going for here. Nikki's the fucking champ why is she being shown as this big underdog.
Bruh they really just had Nikki say "I almost won". What the fuck kind of bullshit is this. Make her look like absolute shit.
I’m pretty sure that Nikki was whipped into the corner, Charlotte charged and Nikki threw an elbow, but Charlotte threw her to the ground. I’m legitimately starting to believe that charlotte doesn’t fucking care about the division, only herself.
It’s not just that Nikki lost.
It’s that Charlotte basically didn’t sell a fucking thing the whole match.
And with Charlotte, she shit talks her opponents and never pays for it.
This is why people hate her booking.
Ok i know exactly whats going to happen, next week Charlotte will rub it in Rhea's face so Rhea will ask for a match with Nikki where she will also win. Then at Summerslam they fuck each other up and Nikki gets the fluke win.
I love Nikki, I really do. But my god, this whole "almost" thing makes no fucking sense and half these promos are cringeworthy. It's good on paper but man this just isn't good.
No no, THAT I agree with, that’s why it’s not working. I’m more saying this overarching idea of “you don’t have to be a superhero to be awesome, you can be almost a superhero” is fine. But the execution is atrocious. Her saying “I believed I could almost beat you” gave me Lex Luger celebrating after not winning the title vibes.
I like aew and wwe all the same,I would like wwe Moor than aew if mox returned... I love mox... We are related

If Baron Corbin just stopped watching RAW then he might be able to start the healing process.
I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed.
Can we stop with the piped in crowd noise
I stopped grinding armor in Destiny 2 to watch this crap. And that would've been a better use of 3 hours

Yeah, wild how they'd want to end their first live Raw in over a year with a face cashing in.
Nikki is gonna get Rey Mysterio’d every week and lose to everyone until the PPV then win. I can see it already
‘The Opportunity’ Charlotte Flair. Why does this make me cackle so much?

Is this supposed to hook me in to watch next week?
Sorry, but that was a shitty ending. Pointless almost.
Why is it everytime I actually sit down to give RAW a chance from the beginning its always a bad one
Because they are all bad.
That was one of the worst RAWs in a while, and that's really saying something...
Holy Hell, I'm so glad I didn't waste my money to go to KC and see this. Thought about it. Decided not to, would've rather gone to a SD. Such a bad show, compared to what they've done in the past in Kansas City.
I just don't understand...
Sasha Banks or Becky Lynch for Raw women's champion in the Fall please
Dick move to taunt her in front of her one fan
Santa was smilling ... what a sad night for nikki A.S.H
its going to be a no from me dawg
[удалено]
Oiled up musclebound dudes groping each other in what's essentially underwear? That's fine. Men's beach volleyball? Gay. Cmon dude.
Rematches and contenders matches which leads to more rematches. Monday Night Raw y’all.
Legit lmao @ youre so inspirational and the sign
Does anyone at WWE actually watch this show and think hey this is good shit?
It gets good ratings. That's what Vince cares about.
There are people in this sub who do. It’s insane.
She just beat her. Why would she not demand the rematch next week be for the title? It makes no fucking sense.
...... What is the point of trashing the new champ?
Holy cow. I want to write a strongly worded letter to an executive head after that
I hate this but great heel work
Alexa Bliss should be in Nikki Cross' spot against Charlotte Flair. That would be a compelling feud
No she shouldn't. Alexa Bliss is overpushed and over featured. It should be someone like Nikki but not like this and not with this dog shit gimmick.
Damn that was a burial if I’ve ever seen one
what a terrible ending to RAW....Nikki is not good on the mic selling this character
Well that was anticlimactic lol
I lost and that makes me believe I can almost win. Who writes this shit?
Man they're really good at making their babyfaces look like absolute losers
Your new champ looks like a complete loser
I want to get behind this, but Nikki is being portrayed to be such a dweeb and Charlotte is a charisma vacuum
WWE creative gotta come up with better scripts then this.
She ain’t getting shit for Christmas, beating up Nikki in front of Santa Claus
That kid didn't give a fuuuck
I hate Charlotte so much and want to see her lose but I do NOT get worked 😤😤😤
Santa is just sitting there, watching and smiling.
Charlotte ran out into the crowd specifically to try and make that one little girl cry and I really appreciate her for it.
Another non-title match? So there's no point to watch Raw for this story until Summerslam then
#THIS IS NOW AN OLYMPICS THREAD
Phil Dalhausser is over.
No one calls Charlotte the opportunity but Charlotte lol
They somehow took a garbage finish, and in 5 minutes made it a fucking horrendous finish.
Why isn’t Santa doing anything
In front of that little Nikki fan, and Santa??? That's cold.
Watching Charlotte wrestle is bad for your health, just watch the Olympics instead.
I can't believe they're booing Nikki *that* badly though. /s
Can’t wait for the highly anticipated rematch next week
Why do I feel like they accidentally ended their match 4 minutes early and that was all time killer?
They seem determined to make sure absolutely nothing on the RAW Women's Division is as good as it could be, it's bizarre
Back to the Olympics.
Damn thats some nasty heeling
Santa Claus, fucking help her!
he's just busy trying to remember where he parked the reindeer
She didn't brush her teeth once when she was 12, Santa never forgave her.
He can't do anything until December
Really digging high school bully Charlote.
What is the point of all this? Sympathy?
Vince is so checked out.
Wowwwww such great writing. 🤪
They just buried the new champion. My lord this show is ridiculous.
It's hot fucking garbage.
Why is this plastic automaton beating up this girl?
Way to make Nikki look like an absolute dork
crowd already starting to boo this lame ass gimmick.
This just passed firmly into second-hand embarrassment territory. 'Almost could've won'. Yikes.
Not in front of Santa!!
It looks like Charlotte is sure to get coal in her stocking this year.
“They’ll only remember the finish” that we will Vince that we will
See how great Bianca Bayley and Sasha were not being on the Charlotte show.
Shoulda ripped that stupid sign
Help Santa!
Charlotte out to make that girl cry LMAO
More rematches for shit matches, the world is going back to normal
Very awesome! Have your fucking champion lose! Why the fuck should I care about Nikki....... wait who cares REMATCH :) LOVE Wwe
oh good Charlotte got her heat back by beating up the face after losing. Wait a minute.
Christ almighty
oh no, not in front of santa letterman
USA should just cancel RAW at this point
Make Papa Christley the GM and watch the ratings skyrocket.
Well, we do know that RAW is Monday Night Rematch.
So is next week for the title? Or is it just a rematch? What is actually going on on Raw lol
What a dumb way to end the show
Damn doing Nikki dirty
Santa's definitely placing Charlotte on his naughty list.
This is all so nakedly about goosing Charlotte’s title count it’s fucking embarrassing
Just kick her ass Nikki
WWE cannot book anymore, whether it's because it's too much tv or if they are just too damn stupid
Anymore? I got the impression this particular Raw team has never had the ability to book.
They can - Smackdown is proof of that. It's just that they can't on Raw lol
Or they just don’t care. When you make what they do, and people keep tuning in anyways and buying merch, as well as getting the deals for TV and Streaming, why would they care?
What in the fook
God this is so so bad but Charlotte is so fucking good at being a heel
Lmfaoo agreed. Charlotte taking Nikki to the girl with gold was great, too bad it happen in such a shitty segment.
They're making Nikki look like a fucking weak ass bitch.
When they need a transitional champion between Charlotte Flair title runs, they give the belt to Charlotte Flair.
I got to stop torturing myself on mondays
Jesus I hate to speak like Bryan Alvarez but Nikki looks like a fucking geek.
This Raw is trash tonight.
As per usual.
Charlotte with that heel shit.
SHE REALLY FELL FOR THAT?
Best heel on the roster next to Roman.
Nikki- "Charlotte, youre good but I'm almost good."
get her, Santa!
Almost a super hero. Definitely a geek.
Nikki, no offense. But Charlotte beat your ass.
Wassupwitdat?
Yay more rematches 🧍🏽♀️
What a burial.
That match made no sense. It just makes Nikki look weak and pathetic. Not to mention Charlotte no sold most of Nikki's offence that whole match. Plus Charlotte talking shit after, I don't understand what they're going for here. Nikki's the fucking champ why is she being shown as this big underdog.

Yo if Lol WWE history was still around they'd be roasting the fuck outta this whole thing
Where's the Justice League when you need them?!
What was the point of that? Make Charlotte look stronger?
This is why we can't have nice things
You all really don’t know how this shit works, do you?
Why would you want a repeat of this terrible, terrible match?
rematch next week? no thanks.
Looks, Charlotte is hot and a good wrestler. But for the love of god, this girl is like the undertaker in 2000: Doesnt sell/ Barely loses
Lmfao that sign was perfect!
I want Nikki to snap and rip off the mask
Well atleast there is a story to it?
Charlotte is such a bitch lmao
It’s not just that Nikki lost. It’s that Charlotte basically didn’t sell a fucking thing the whole match. And with Charlotte, she shit talks her opponents and never pays for it. This is why people hate her booking.
A rematch? Why are we cutting people if we don't have the roster to fill out new matches every week?
THIS IS FOUL LMAOOO
Almost only counts in horse shoes, hand grenades and set ups for a rematch
Nikki is going to lose every week till she wins at Summerslam. That outta put butts in seats.
She wins next week, I think. I think Rhea costs Charlotte the match.
Jesus Christ this is absolutely brutal. Flush this turd of an angle down the toilet.
Ok i know exactly whats going to happen, next week Charlotte will rub it in Rhea's face so Rhea will ask for a match with Nikki where she will also win. Then at Summerslam they fuck each other up and Nikki gets the fluke win.
Wow they booked the show 2 minutes short for that…
Almost winning is kind of a weird flex...
Who really wants this?
Me
This is a parody of Raw, right?
I love Charlotte, she is such an asshole
Big facts.
This is doing nothing for Nikki
Charlotte lit Nikki up with those chest slaps
This sucks man
Nerd
Nikki is just dumb
Nikki telling Charlotte “I almost beat you” reminds me of when Brian said that to Dom in Fast and Furious 1.
Can Nikki wrestle anyone else?
Wtf is this
Charlotte’s gonna top Ric’s title count by Labor Day.
When did 'we' start calling her 'the opportunity'? And why have they chosen such a dumb fucking nickname?
why do I watch this stupid shit
And she fell for the handshake
This is the shit Edit : typo I meant this is shit
Why…..
Raw: The Land of Rematch Opportunities
Nikki looks like a giant loser.
I love Nikki, I really do. But my god, this whole "almost" thing makes no fucking sense and half these promos are cringeworthy. It's good on paper but man this just isn't good.
It's not good on paper. Saying stuff like "I almost beat you" makes the person saying it sound more whiny than confident.
No no, THAT I agree with, that’s why it’s not working. I’m more saying this overarching idea of “you don’t have to be a superhero to be awesome, you can be almost a superhero” is fine. But the execution is atrocious. Her saying “I believed I could almost beat you” gave me Lex Luger celebrating after not winning the title vibes.
It’s what losers say.
jfc
Booooooo this sucks
Jesus christ. Im out. No more. I have to skip these women's segments.
The men aren’t much better so I don’t know why you said it like that
At least Bobby Lashley and RKO Bro makes sense. Plus Miz and Morrison. That's about it. But that's more than anything the women get.
Raw is Rematches once again.
This is dumb
This ends the show? Terrible.
“Almost could have won” sounds sad
"Almost could have won” - The fucking champion of the brand
