RAW: 5/27

This has lasted about 3 minutes so about 3 minutes too long

This might be the worst hour of television WWE has done in years.

Didn't Reigns make it personal when he punched his dad?

Never try to make them think about their own storylines.

There are still promotions that donâ??t place as much emphasis on mic work. They arenâ??t particularly successful in America. For wrestling to maintain popularity in America, they need all this talking and character work. Wether thatâ??s right, wrong, or indifferent, itâ??s just how it is.

Plus thereâ??s all those Indians who love that character work because they still largely believe in kayfabe.

Oh you can have plenty of mic work. Just don't let people talk who aren't good at it. Give them a manager or think of something else to get the story across.

Great... incoming Corbin vs Styles feud

This will be the 4th time since WrestleMania that Baron Corbin has been in the main event of Raw.

Styles injured himself so he couldn't feud with Corbin.

Genius.
