Apparently that report is false.

I don't blame them. If they're just going to continue to punish them for getting engaged and ruining a stupid angle that wasn't going to work anyway, why hang around?

I'd been out of town and the link doesn't work. What up with all that, DB? Is that Rusev and Lana you're talking about?

Yeah, but turns out to be a false report.

I've always found Battle Royals to be boring and tonight's opening match on RAW isn't doing anything to change that opinion.

So Emma beats Mickie James in a "hashtag match".

The more I look at Emma the less attractive she is. And it's not just the blue lips WWE makes her wear; she's just not that good-looking. I see more attractive women around here on a daily basis; Emma is certainly NOT "diva material" unless you're "dumpster diving".

Lol, Toho! Sorry I'm late but today is my daughter's b-day and we just finished celebrating.

Ugh... it's Thin Bastard.

That spot where a giant topples all the rest at once had run its course long ago.

I knew Jeff would win the moment he walked out. They wanted to make him a singles star again anyway. I wanted Elias to win.

The exchange between Cena and Reigns was one of the best things I've seen on RAW in a long time. Lots of truth spoken by both guys.

Can't wait to get there then...

Tonight's RAW is one big bore so far. I am already at the Cena/Reigns spot.

It's a "scripted shoot"

It was interesting to me because the audience didn't quite know what to do. One minute they were cheering Reigns and booing Cena and the next minute it was vice versa.

With their lack of moves there'll be more action with the old school thumb wrestlers than Cena vs Reigns.

Interesting.

Sasha Banks seemed to get as many boos as cheers in her interview wants Alexa Bliss' name was mentioned.

But I thought Cena really carried Reigns during that segment.  He actually helped Reigns give a decent promo and then acknowledged that fact on the mic which I found hilarious.

I can't stand Cena because of the way WWE books him but he actually is a good worker and can put guys over if given the chance.

Never thought I'd see the day I rooted for Roman Reigns...

I'm the reverse; never thought I'd see the day when I rooted for Cena.
For my money Reigns is a total stiff in the ring. "The Superman Punch"? Puh-leeze...

At least Cena can execute some actual wrestling moves. I've seen him do a fireman's carry which is more than I can say for Reigns.

Regardless, I thought that exchange between the two was the most compelling thing I've seen on RAW in quite a while.

I have to agree. That was a good exchange with lots of truth.

Sasha's been losing steam for a while now. She's had a slow leak lately.

Alexa's got my TV engaged in a little heavy breathing... yowza.

This has been a stale RAW with lots of missed spots.

That was a great match between Sasha and Alexa.

I knew Alexa would win. Uh-oh, the Kaiju...
