I just saw that Glasgow is getting another RAW taping in November. I don't know whether to get tickets or not this time. The show is awful right now but it was great live last time.

If you get a house show nearby it would probably be better. I wish we still got house shows. The televised shows are shit atm.

That small NXT show I went to a few months ago was the best show I've ever been to. The thought of going to a Raw now is positively dreadful.

First DX vs. Brothers of Destruction and now Undertaker vs. Goldberg. These Saudi Arabia shows are basically just booking stuff that would have been dream matches years ago. I saw Mick Foley say that he'd be willing to do a HiaC rematch with Taker over there if the money was good enough and as sad/horrible as it sounds it wouldn't even be that shocking now. They'll probably try to do Taker vs. Sting too. I heard that the people requesting the matches for these shows only know the old wrestlers from back in the day. Apparently they also requested Yokozuna (dead for almost 20 years) at one of the last shows.  |

It might not be fair or a good gauge but people who refuse to do the Saudi shows always shoot up my favorites list. Zayn, Owens, Bryan, and Black are pretty high atm.

 streamable.com/0lvlgThis looks like one of the most embarrassing matches ever. Undertaker is going to die for real in the ring if he doesn't stop. And Goldberg went from having a great last match to a terrible one. Holy shit, there was even worse. |

The match started off amazingly, I honestly thought they were going to actually pull it off, but then Goldberg split his head open and the match went to shit. It was terrifying to watch, I thought one of them was about to die.
I never want to see either of them wrestle again.

I didn't watch, but those gifs are horrifying. If they're going to continue booking Taker in matches they shouldn't last more than 5 minutes.

Undertaker can’t even really have a big emotional retirement moment now. The end of WM 33 was perfect but it’ll be ridiculous if you tried to repeat something similar after that one ended up meaning nothing.
Even before that, WM 28 & 30 would have been memorable final moments.
He’s just going to have to quietly retire and not tell anyone then headline the Hall of Fame to make it official. Except in 6 months he’ll probably be tempted to come back again when he’s offered six figures to face Sting/Kane/Kamala at the next Saudi Arabia show.

Ali donated his earnings to charity. I've never had a non-problematic favorite before now. He's really making up for all my questionable choices in previous faves. |

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWE_Stomping_GroundsThis might be the least appealing PPV I've ever seen. Even December to Dismember and other crappy looking cards usually had at least one kinda selling point. This basically has nothing.

Seth is looking like a whole puppet trying to step up and fill Cena’s role as WWE’s white knight.

I thought the one saving grace of that last PPV would be that at least most of those feuds would end and we could move onto new stuff but apparently Rollins/Corbin, Becky/Lacey and Roman/Shane are all continuing for at least another month smh. Bayley/Alexa too but at least they've only been going for a few weeks and 1 match so far.
At least Kofi seems to have moved on from Ziggler.

This wildcard stuff is so stupid. Hopefully it continues for a few more months though. I got tickets to RAW in November and I want a chance to see Kofi/IIconics/Bryan/Roman/Zelina. I doubt the RAW roster alone will have much star power.
