I really want to see Dynamite go head-to-head with RAW. It won't happen but I can dream.

I don't even like Nia Jax, and I cannot imagine I will ever particularly like Nia Jax, but giving her weeks upon weeks of "haha she fell down look at how stupid she is" as a gimmick, on the basis of someone completely unrelated having slipped once, is remarkably disrespectful to Nia Jax.

DarkstarIV posted:Like the only good part of WWE right now is NXT and that's simply because their women's division is incredibly strong, even if the top two champs right now for the men and women are weak as gently caress. The women's division is still garbage. 59 women employed across the 4 brands, and we're still in a situation where there is a lack of challengers for each of the 6 titles for the 8 champions.

If you can calibrate your moral core but how much you want bad people to suffer, there’s a lot to like on WWE raw.

Everyone is rightfully focusing on all of the other incomprehensible awful poo poo in that recap, but lol that Orton's followup to all of that Fiend bullshit is asking Riddle to tag with him. There's no character motivation or story beats that make sense anywhere on this godforsaken show.

Orton/Riddle vs Shelton/Cedric was better than it had any right to be. Alexa’s uhhh…instructions were hilariously absurd. Braun vs Drew was okay I guess.

i had a hard time even getting through those results, I can't imagine watching the whole show raw has been 'bad' for a long long time now, but it was still something you could half-watch with like a family member or friend while snacking and playing with your phone, but now it's like actively repellent

They should do a new storyline with Orton where he starts hallucinating Ed Harris, Paul Bettany and a little girl and becomes a math genius.

There so much bad in those clips but the thing that really got to me was the people in the video screens doing the thumbs down. It just looked so fake and made me think about the person who is telling them all to react. I don't think that person knows how humans actually interact with others. Also, aren't jumpscares supposed to be shocking and surprising? It doesn't really work when the scare is done by a poorly designed Muppet.

At this point I would almost describe RAW as some kind of Dadaistic performance art installation, but I feel like that would be ascribing a level of intent to this goddamn dreck that it quite frankly doesn't deserve.

The way in which WWE is bad is industrially interesting, at least. It's a good example of what happens to entertainment in capitalism at the point where the reward for a creative venture is largely or utterly divorced from what people thought of that creative venture. Vince McMahon, a man who has lost most of his creative skills but retained all of his creative twitchiness, is constantly rewriting a show to less and less response when it would receive about the same rating and he would get about the same amount of money no matter what he did. A podcast I listen to once described the endstage of Hollywood as being one movie that takes a week to watch and features all the characters owned by the studio. The endstage of WWE is three hours of constant robotic noise where none of the matches start or finish, it's just things happening as the bright lights flash on and off.

Now I imagine Vince or Hunter saying "Now I will make a Dadaistic show!" and somehow loving that up.

Not gonna lie, it would kinda own if RAW secretly is some kind of test to the audience of whether they will actually watch the absolute worst show imaginable.

Look I'm just saying Mortal Kombat vs DC woulda worked better as a movie and Freddie + Jason + Leatherface + Alien + Predator + Robocop + Terminator + The Looney Tunes can only make it better. Get on it warner
