I don’t disagree but think they’ll do Okada/omega first - they’ve been hinting at that feud for months.

I think you are right.

I’m too impatient, though. While Omega is as healthy as he’s going to be for a long time, I’d strap the rocket to him as soon as I could.

Have to agree with Gerald V. Thought they were heading for Darby eventually beating Moxley with a possible Christian cash in.

I'd go (pun intended) All In on Omega as champion, heck do the belt collector thing again.

It seems like they want to hold off on Okada and Omega until Texas in July,

Welp they burned it on Hobbs - guess the belt wasn’t going to switch on dynamite anyways.

Sorry but the Gauntlet Match is stupid. Feel free to correct me but Hobbs has been booked like shit, returned from injury, won a jobber match last week, wins a gimmick match this week, gets a title shot next week, will lose, and then what? Didn't this just happen to friggin' Wardlow last year? Booked like shit, beat jobbers, won a gimmick match, immediately lost against the champion, and forgotten.

GD, build a proper story with one of these big guys instead of putting them on a scale of 1-10 where they're stuck at 3, launched to an 8 out of nowhere, loses, then shoved back down to a 3 or 4 again.

That's me being frustrated because I see how Bronson Reed was finally built up and then the above keeps happening at the other place.

I don’t know who they are but I like lookin at em

They are doing the women's Gauntlet Match next week. I think it would be great if Toni Storm did the Mick Foley thing and enter as each of her gimmicks.

Interesting move from last night's match. In case you missed it Col. Angus.

As expected Raw did huge numbers on Monday night.

Netflix (NYSE: NFLX) and WWE®, part of TKO Group Holdings (NYSE: TKO) today announced that the debut episode of RAW on Netflix got off to a strong start, with the Monday night program capturing 4.9M Live+1 views* globally.**·

The inaugural event on Netflix averaged 2.6 million households (Live+SD) in the US, according to VideoAmp, which is 116% higher than RAW’s average 2024 US audience of 1.2 million households, and higher than any other Monday Night RAW broadcast in the past five years. The event also more than doubled the A18-49 audience vs. last year.

Speaking of huge numbers NXT did 957,000 viewers and a .25. Rock brought in the viewers.
