MONDAY NIGHT RAW - SURVIVOR SERIES GO HOME SHOW



Finally I can write it like this MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!!

That is how it should be referred to: capital letters, bold, and exciting. Except for the last few months it’s been this: monday night really average wrestling.

But this past Monday it returned to MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!! This was the best RAW of the year, the best RAW since the Brand Split and the Best Go Home Show.

In truth, this was Go Home Show part 2, as it continued from last week.



Last week all the teams were split apart and forced to face each other, this week they were paired up and proved they can work together.







The Big Items to take away this week:


  • SURVIVIOR SERIES is being made a big deal by the WWE, and it should be. This event is one of the big Four, original PPVs. It should be a big deal.
  • Dolph Ziggler is putting up the IC Title. RAW is putting up the entire Cruiserweight Division? Kendrick versus Kalisto isn’t just for Kendrick’s title, if Kalitso wins, the Cruiserweights cruise onto SD Live, hasta la vista RAW!
  • Lesnar versus Goldberg is the odd match out and should not be on the card.

    Every other match on this card has meaning to it, and all are RAW versus SD Live. Except this. This match should have been held off to the Rumble, or even WrestleMania. It can’t be though, ‘Fantasy Warfare,’ remember? This match has nothing to do with a rematch, it’s all about selling WWE2K17.


The only low point for me on RAW was the Lesnar/Goldberg face off. It did nothing. It didn’t add to the intrigue, it didn’t make one want to see the match. It was Heyman being Heyman, Goldberg interrupting and threatening him and Brock looking uninterested. Yawn.

The Main Event segment worked wonders. Initially Steph and Foley staring down Shane and Bryan, and evolved into both teams going at it and showing unity!








FINAL THOUGHTS:
SURVIVOR SERIES MAY ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING!

RATING: 8
