It would be the pinnacle of "beat the traffic" chants, assuming anyone was left to participate in it.

Even so. Not saying I expect Roman to get cheered, but I still think the likeliest scenario is that the crowd just craps on the match. They might set out to cheer Jinder during entrances, but that's as much as I would expect.

DB losing clean to Rusev was a surprise.

Glad I skipped out.

Presumably to get Bryan vs. Cass II. It was so hot the first time!

A couple months ago I was considering going to this. I haven’t watched more than 20 minutes of either RAW or SD in one sitting since after Mania. I didn’t watch Sunday night either and have no interest in going back to it. I think I’m just an NXT and 205Live watcher until LU starts up again next month. Very disappointing

idk why you wouldn't go! It's the one night of the year that RAW and SD! superstars compete in dual branded competition! Aside from Survivor Series, Royal Rumble, probably Tribute to the Troops, and other random garbage too.

Card so far looks like:
Men's MitB
Women's MitB
AJ vs. Nakamura - LMS
Bryan vs. Cass
Roman vs. Jinder

Guesses:
Seth vs. ???
Nia vs. ???
Ziggles/Drew vs. Wyatt/Hardy
KO vs. Sami

There's also going to be a tag team MitB match. I had thought that for some reason but Paige only announced the men's and women's match tonight. But there were promos for the tag MitB ladder match during RAW last night that (wait for it).....wait....

Spoiler:
AIRED BY ACCIDENT

Before RAW they were going to announce the MitB tag match. Then just before RAW they decided to reveal this later because it's 6 weeks until the event so save a surprise. But no one pulled the segments of The Ascention and Breezango saying they're going to win the tag MitB match.

Lol yeah, I wasn’t sure if I had missed the announcement of a tag team mitb or if the ascension were claiming they would co-win the regular mitb.

They can barely maintain a tag team division as is, having a MitB sounds absurd.

After skipping last week I was almost looking forward to tonight's show. Then I remembered that it's a taped UK show. I decided to read spoilers. It doesn't look interesting at all. Apparently there was one great match on the card but it involved Seth so I doubt I'd like it .

These need to be merged. I feel like I've mentioned this before but it could actually be good if they just combined them.

They should do this with the titles:

WWE World Champion
WWE World Tag Team Champions
WWE Women's World Champion
WWE Women's World Tag Champions

These 4 titles appear on both shows. This allows the thin women's and tag rosters to have an adequate number of title contenders. Also the champs shouldn't appear both shows each week. The WWE Champion appearing should be a bit more special and the champs could appear on whichever show the current feud is.

Then make the Intercontinental title exclusive to Raw and is the secondary title for the Raw roster and do the same with the US title and Smackdown. Easy game.

There’s not nearly enough talent in the women’s division for a tag title but otherwise I agree

I think there could be if the tag titles are over both brands. Keep in mind there would only be one singles belt for the women to feud for, so taking some of the girls who aren't currently contending for the World title and putting them in tag division storylines could keep things more interesting than just randomness happening.

So right now maybe you have Carmella as World Champion, with Charlotte as her current feud. Becky & Naomi, Alexa & Mickie, the Riott Squad, Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville are all viable tag teams, with a possible story of Sasha & Bayley trying to repair their relationship by chasing the tag titles. Could also do a tag team of Natalya & Ronda Rousey if they wanna build to that angle that way. Ember & Nia also have tagged together as well.

Just read the Raw results from last night. They're seriously giving Ronda a title match at MITB?

That's monumentally stupid for several reasons.

I would wager that there won't be a decisive finish. The key was them focusing on Ronda "jumping the line".

raw was decent seth and owens had a barn burner by wwe standards.
theres def going to be some tomfoolery in nia vs ronda maybe the quickest mitb cash in

I just heard the Big Cass promo from SD on the Wai Ting and John Pollack podcast.

Omg. It's so amazingly awful. Holy s word.

The way Roman is being booked right now is unquestionably the worst booking he's gotten in the 5 years he's been on the main roster. This storyline with Brock is awful. How can people possibly get invested in something that they know isn't true?
