LUKE: The best ones will be read out on the WrestleTalk Podcast

Comments

Danny B

This was an ok show. But compared to the bad shows we've been subjected to pre summer slam we now seem to be progressing. This was by no means an exciting or can't miss episode but the last two weeks we have seen stories progress and can see stroies progressing past the next PLE cycle. I enjoyed the Dragon Lee win (I am looking forward to up coming tournament to fight Regins) and Solo is comedy gold. This was a classic Black and Gold era show. Could be summed up in a 5min review but also enjoyable to watch live (minus the god awful length of adverts).

James Markin

So why am I meant to care about this #1 contender tournament when they just had one 6 weeks ago where the winner gave up the shot?

Jag

Solo Dolo is the best thing about Raw.

James Paine

Solo Sikoa. That is all.

Sage

No way we got Doms merch sponsored by Dude Wipes 😭😂

Machinepanda

This whole bloodline thing im so over it holding down another guy in solo i just don’t see a payoff that is satisfying enough to overturn the fan feedback but my mistake for having faith in wwe creative & as someone who’s Irish & met lyra multiple times how insufferable is her current character jeez it’s bad New to the channel & Patreon loving it so far will you guys be at all in

Matt Adams

If they want us to care about Bron Breakker as much as they seem, they need to get him away from the Vision immediately! The Bloodline story is nonsense and I can't imagine why anyone would care. I understand they think they have probably "added a new layer" to this story with Solo losing, but honestly, I just rolled my eyes and said, well so much for caring a out Solo.

Jeremiah Culver

Oddly Pentas match felt the worst of the night, which is crazy cause I classify Penta as one of the company’s top in ring performers. Just felt like stuff. Big dive, sell for 5 seconds, hurry up and stand up to set up the next spot. I do like Bron’s direction. Felt like I missed out missing Raw after SummerSlam so I tuned in live and it’s back to highlight recaps for me sadly

KET

I don't mean this in a disrespectful way to those who lost their jobs. But the MFTs getting released was the best thing to happen to Solo. He's so entertaining and interesting now. Knowing Triple H, he'll give him a mid card title run in 9 months time.

Dukect

I have a couple things to say. First, if Bron stays the vision longer, he will slowly morph into the into his uncle Scott from WCW 1999-2001 and if you watched WCW at that time you know how much of a menace he was. And 2nd with Solo going back to the bloodline I want to ask are we still in the 3rd Inning of the bloodline?

Matt

Raw is falling so far behind Smackdown I feel like HHH needs to give it a free Legends Whisperer power card or something. No Roman, No Seth, No Brock No Stars. Weirdly feels like post-Mania in the mid-2010’s. Smackdown has plenty though

Sam Sullivan

There was at least more wrestling on this show than in recent weeks, but so much of it felt so slowed down and laborious and the dead crowd really didn't help matters. The Luchadors continue to be the best wrestlers on the card, although the disrespect from commentary and implication that they should be honoured that Lucha Libre is getting anywhere near Roman Reigns felt almost offensive, and Solo going back to the bloodline feels like such a massive step backwards that I'm praying for some kind of swerve

Untrusted 0ne

I really like what they are doing with the Bron and Oba storyline, the only thing I think that would make it better if Bron was a little more unhinged, psychotic, intense, making Paul Heyman scared where he has to choose a side or risk getting hurt. Dominic looks like a chump, what the heck is the plan with him. Losing to dragon Lee to make dragon Lee look strong in the tournament makes me feel that AAA feels so insignificant that there TOP CHAMPION LOST.....AGAIN. Also where the hell is El Grande? All that great momentum feels like it's gone now and if your trying to promote AAA or Mexico and your the biggest star of Mexico is your own Talent and is completely absent is bad. Either give a fake explanation why he isn't here or effin is him to make your Mexico show bigger.

Don

Why did they have Solo lose? I hope he won't lose all his momentum like Jacob, but the Bloodline Vortex is killing any hope of a breakout star with all its boring and often repetitive story beats. Nice to see how much creative values AAA. The champ can't buy a win now. They did Dirty Dom dirty, but at least he got the rub from beating Cena last November

Don

Feels like we're in the 14th inning

Lily Petal

Jacob got over, so HHH/WWE said let's put him in the Bloodline and kill his momentum. So my question is . . . WHY? WHY??? WHY PUT SOLO BACK INTO THE BLOODLINE?????

Vectron44

"This Solo guy is getting over- we should have him beat Jey and keep momentum!" "Yeah, but would that make the Bloodline look weak?" "Yeah, you're right. Two weeks is a good run..." Solo does feel like a character that will only go so far in the Triple H regime because he's not serious enough. Everyone in the Main Event has to be super stoic and anyone who isn't is just ready to be fed for heat.

Bob

Evening gents, here’s my weekly cutscene plug since I’m prepping for DD. Watching Iron Man 2 recap, would have loved to see a scene of Terrance Howard doing math with Jarvis. Do you think we will see any scenes with RDJ and Spiderman in DD? Also Oba’s shadow entrance was sick.

Cody

My little cousin swallowed a coin recently and his parents had to “search” for it for a week or two until they found it. Anyway the analogy I’m going for here is that Solo Sikoa is the coin in the steaming pile of shit that is raw. Like a diamond in a landfill, I don’t know anymore.

Brent

Welcome back Solo and the Pew Pew Pew. It's too bad that WWE wants Jey Uso to be the guy. Maybe Solo will go back on his word and refuse to rejoin the Bloodline. Becky and Vaquer were the best things on the show. I really like Becky saying Liv is treating the World Women's title as the Divas title. Logan Paul manages to break kayfabe since I refuse to believe in between the backstage segment and before coming to the ring that he had enough time to put on the brace on his left arm. I had two awful ideas that WWE can do. One is have Oba and Tozawa fight Bron and Theory for the tag belts. The other one is have LA Knight become LA Conquistador and replace one of the AAA wrestlers in the tournament which might be closer to reality. Sol Ruca saying she wants out of the Judgment Day Vortex so she can reclaim the Women's IC title is kinda dumb since Raquel is the women's IC champion. Sol isn't escaping the Vortex any time soon unless Lyra beats her in a theorical number 1 contender match for the belt.

Brent

Except Dragon Lee vs Dom wasn't a tournament match. It was Dom being upset that he wasn't in the tournament while Dragon Lee is and got beat by Dragon Lee.

Brent

Just wait until Dom gets moved to TNA and forced to be part of a storyline with the mascot of Dude Wipes.

Wheels

I’m deciding to be optimistic and say that they might not waiting to do something interesting with Oba Femi I don’t think we’re there yet but the way they are rehabbing Breakker is working. Oh and Solo is a National treasure and needs to be protected at all cost

Danny B

I was more referring to the upcoming tournament to face Roman. Apologies for the confusion in my comment

GRAVY

Love to see Dragon Lee get wins on TV but seriously why is Dom taking that pin as the champion? Is he getting punished for his tweets about the Danhausen match?

Brandon

good episode, can't wait for solo to shit talk roman next week and this jealous bron stuff is an absolute highlight. something I couldn't help but notice though is how much this episode was pushing AAA. every chance they got Cole and Graves were talking about how important and awesome AAA is (clearly to push for that TV deal) and with there being 2 tournament matches next week I can not WAIT to see how much they push it. speaking of the tournament, i think its clear that Penta is winning with him vs Fenix in the finals but I am placing a bet that the roman title match is going to lead directly to Usos vs Lucha Bros at Worlds Collide

Brandon

I agree smackdowns main event scene is better but literally every other part of that show is so much worse then this

Peter Siddorn

Hey guys, any thoughts on the PWInsider report that WWE is planning to move Johnny Gargano to the Turbo brand?

Brent

I believe Graves cares about AAA since he does the lead English commentary of their shows. I don't believe Cole has watched a single second of AAA though.

CDE

A solid episode, the finish of the women’s tag was great. The bron, heyman segment was great, hopefully they don’t kill his momentum again. Dom losing again feels wrong when he’s main eventing their own products biggest event in weeks, and I really hope they pull a swerve next week and save solo from the bloodline, sure this solo in the bloodline could be fun but I don’t trust they will do it right when jimmy and jey seem to have different personalities each week, Jacob has lost his edge and feels neutered and even Roman feels like he’s fallen to the 8th most interesting main eventer in the company atm.

Michael Trayner

Not as good of a show as last week but still a decent one. Felt like we had good progressing and decent wrestling on the show. Funny how that can make a filler show still fun too watch. Hopefully Solo keeps his current momentum because he has been one of the best parts of all WWE

Brett A

A lot of people missed out on WCW and probably dont know what it felt like. Well watching Solo rejoin the bloodline is what it felt like when Hogan laid the finger poke on Nash. Everything is Bloodline

Brandon

but didn't you hear him on commentary, they talk about AAA every week in their free time!

Blake Whitehouse

Smackdown this year has gotten The Bellas, Paige, Fatal Influence, Rhea Ripley, Jordynn Grace, and now Tatum Paxley. RAW has gotten just Sol Ruca. No wonder RAW’s women’s division feels so empty.

Eric#13

I am honstely so sad about how bad they dropped the ball with Dom, after last few years with Rhea, the IC Title win at mania and the win against Cena, he should be pushing into the Main event scene right now, instead he is the losing part in an undercard story, I think thats an Embarassement of "long term booking"

Daniel James Baker

Who would've thought that in 2026 WWE would give us Gucci Morpheus Solo Sikoa telling Jey Uso to calm down and dodging bullets before "pewing" back. Miming gunshots during the year entrance cracked me the fuck up, can't get enough of him, name a more interesting face in the company! (LA Knight copium huffing) Poor akira tozawa suffering the pressure of fart in the wind Austin Theory with Michael cole being more concerned on commenting about sad dog bron breakker, wish corey graves didn't save him from from his 360 maxine comment, what a tool, bless oba for trying to save the segment. All well and good having the luchador tournament on raw but why not do it on triple AAA and use romans presence to put it over more for tv? Surely it would give raw the space it needs to soft through the shit and develop other stars instead of delaying Oba Femi but what am I saying, Triple H and TKO could take a quartz crystal to a jewelers and try pawn it off as a diamond! They're bad at booking and they don't care.. meanwhile Sol finally getting a W on the card, Becky and Steph continue to be great helped the show for me.

NerfPablo

Solo Sikoa is better than Billy Gunn. Pew.

Jack McEwen-Quy

What is Code Raw? Is this so it aligns more with WWE Turbo? I look forward to whatever 90s buzzwords is added to NXT and Smackdown for their match graphics

Kevin Fleuriot

Has Dom stepped on HHH's foot backstage or something ? I get losing to Danhausen in the stip match but losing clean to Dragon Lee is so weird. I'm happy that Dragon Lee actually gets a win on TV but what are we doing with Dom ?

Defaultusername

Surprised the main event wasn’t sponsored by DoorDash with how many times they said deliver.

FJC Racing

My favourite commentary nugget of the day was Cole saying Maxxine had done “a full 360” when talking about how much her character has changed since joining the vision… I think you mean 180 you doofus.

ScottJDev

This is Solo Sikoa appreciation post... nothing else. He's bloody brilliant isn't he 😂

L3 Productions

Solo's promo with jay was really good I mean solo was really good jey was just there tripping over his words. Adding solo back to the bloodline is probably the worst idea to be honest. Also did Oba really need to do his full entrance I feel like breaker should have just speared him it would have been better. I find WWE really hard to watch at the moment.

Wahab Fares

The Bloodline is suffocating Raw, the same exact cycle over and over to no end. Are we building to bloodline vs team Knight Wargames? I just can’t stand the fact they have to open and close every single show. Why couldn’t we have had Becky vs Vaquer main event in a number one contendership match? Let your stars actually compete for title opportunities and give the weekly shows some stakes. The idea of “saving” big fresh matches for bigger shows is just making the weekly TV super repetitive and tedious

Harry peach

Just when you thought solo puw puw was gonna break out on his own and connect with the fans triple h has clearly seen a young superstar under 40 getting over and thinking no hold on there we've got time with you. But a positive is atleast some of these stories are progressing forwards side note if oba vs bron is next who loses as neither seem like they can afford a loss right now.

Wiccan_Crow_13

I really don’t see the point of putting solo back in the bloodline he was so much more interesting as a baby face, they could have let go on a baby face run and win the IC/US title

Harry Burke

Just give Solo all the belts, he's the best thing in wrestling right now. Pew (finger guns).

Jamie Brown

Say what you want about Bron Breakker, he has that Dawggg in him

The Jursus

Of course it took Solo Sikoa to finally lift Jey Uso up to a main event level. Also, I cannot wait for the John Cena Classic to finally start at this week's episode of Turbo!

Shawn Lindsay

It's Monday Midcard RAW and Main Event SmackDown at the moment

Vikrish-Ingi

Bron v oba at MITB . The vision messes up and interference costs breakker bron snaps murders the vision . Bron comes back during the ladder match murders everyone takes the brief case. Oba wins title at survivor series . Breaker cashes in Oba wins the rumble Breakker loses title to fatu at rumble Oba goes for wwe championship v which ever over 40 has it. Breaker wins elimination chamber beats fatu at wrestlemania. Sets up oba v bron at night of champions to crown the future of the WWE . No one over 40 can win the titles back as the youth are to dominant . A man can dream .

Gavin Leonard

I like Oba and Bron having a Toy story 1 woody v buzz rivalry.

CDE

Coming soon NXT Rush and SmackDown Smash

I understand the value of wanting to be positive, but sometimes it really does feel like some people would let Triple H take a crap on your lawn and you'd thank him for the fertilizer. I beg you: Demand. More. From. Your. Wrestling. Shoot for the stars - worst case, you land on a cloud. Wanting better doesn't make someone a hater trying to kill the vibe. it means they actually care about the product. Because settling for a mediocre WWE is how you get a more mediocre WWE.

cc

At this point, just review Smackdown on Tuesday instead of Raw. It's better for everyone involved.

RedHood93

I just don't care about the Bloodline anymore Solo being ripped back into the family is the worst thing they could have done. Also Jay Uso has THE WORST spear in wrestling right now

Shawn Lindsay

Smackdown is also better than Raw, not just with the main event scene but there is also things happening in other areas of the show. SD Main event has KO/Punk, Cody/Randy. Women's Division has two matches most weeks with Charlotte/Jade plus The baddies and Alexa and Tatum, Nia going after Chelsea for the title while Chelsea and Tiffany teaming going up against Fatal Influence with Jacy going after Tiffany's US title then there is Nikki/Paige feud. Also the tag division has Priest and Truth defending against War Raiders and the MFT with Haku with Shinsuke bringing someone in to go after the new MFTs and the men's US title has baron defending against Carmelo. The quality of everything may be up and down but atleast things are happening.

Ruutti

"Piss Break" Jey Uso

Dan

I feel like Lyra would have got a lot more from a win in that match than Sol will.
