Gonna be honest, Raw Underground is the first time I've been entertained by Dolph in YEARS.

How many times has Mickie been the subject of humiliation angles? At least she got to kick Lana out of her shoe over it.

I love that Ivar can woo the lady from the Bachelor with the power of turkey meat. I mean, I've been to a Ren Faire, those big ass turkey legs are no joke.

I guess in kayfabe Tozawa's giant ninja just ceased to exist. I know the dude under the mask is guarding the door to RAW UNDERGROUND now, but it's funny how the giant ninja just got dropped.

Also kudos to Adam Pierce for locking down that Tony Garea "guy who always comes out to break up brawls" role.

I love how Drew is basically like "I know Randy's going to challenge me because we have another PPV next week so you might as well get it over with".

Very telling that whatever they decided they obviously didn't bother to let her know.

From Alexa Bliss's Instagram. Looks like someone's not happy they weren't on the show after being a central part of the angle leading up to it.

If nothing else, being back in a full sized arena again showed how important having the full stage/screen for a full entrance is for the WWE Experience TM.

Also if Raw was any indication we're going to be seeing Asuka vs Shayna as the next program and I'm here for that.

Kyle O'Reilly, another person who was staying away due to being in a high risk group, came back a few weeks ago, so I'm thinking some kind of mandate came down that if you continue to sit out you won't get paid or something like that. I mean, Roman was 100% right when he said he couldn't trust his co workers to follow precautions and not bring covid into the workplace. Nothing in regards to that has changed, and presumably Roman hasn't stopped caring about his family, so something else must have happened for him to suddenly go against what he was so adamant about before.

I'm happy for brother KawadaSmile and clearly it's something WWE badly needed, but it does make Roman look like a carny fuck for saying he's staying home to protect himself from his non-mask wearing non-quarantining co workers only to turn back up when they needed him the most.

Yeah my main takeaway was how exposed the PC got by how good Pat looked compared to folks who have been training there for years. It's almost as if doing football style drills and endless weightlifting routines designed to blow your shoulders out aren't conducive to making good wrestlers.

Even considering that context "She would have been punished for having someone break into her house and try to abduct her because her kayfabe rival was in the house" is also an incredibly fucking stupid thing to say. Like the above post said, I'm sure even Bill Watts would have given her a pass for this since it's not like they were out in public together. I mean, FFS someone was planning to kidnap her and do god knows what just to keep her from having a hair match at Summerslam, at that point it doesn't fucking matter what would have happened "back in my day". Some things are way bigger than rasslin', and Jim knows that. If he's "working" he's an asshole because this isn't something to play your gimmick on. If he's being serious he's an idiot who's brain has turned to mush from years of trying to own the smarts.

Whoa, wasn't expecting Cody to basically get squashed there.

Whoa, Thunder Rosa is here with the NWA Women's title.

Maybe Jericho thinks if he gets dunked in a vat of mimosa, it will kill any covid germs he picked up on tour.

Hangman killing his gimmick out here by drinking a Bud Light.

Mimosa Mayhem! Surprised I didn't see that coming considering the orange juice based attacks OC has been using.

Oh shit Eddie Kingston forming his own group, I'm down.

Going right to the matches with little or no introduction is giving me 6:05 vibes as well.

Tully on my TV again on a Saturday night just feels right.

The guy who broke in her house was planning to kidnap her so she would miss the show presumably so that wouldn't happen. Plus Sonya will likely need time away to deal with the trial let alone any time needed to mentally deal with everything that happened.

I thought Jeff was pretty good tonight actually. You can argue the merits and/or smarts of pushing the guy in 2020, but it was booked to be the "coming back to overcome the odds" match he excels at.

I admit, I popped for Huskus' GET THESE HOOVES shirt.
