Jose from Long Island. It’s true it’s true it’s damn true Angle finally said it the right way WWE and not DUB DUB E. Now if he can just say jinder mahal’s last name correct, everything will be good in the world of Kurt Angle.
Quick question what are your thoughts on the recent booking of Monday night raw. Kane destroying balor and Alicia fox beating banks and bayley. Alicia fox, are you serious Vince!!

I'm a big fan of Emma but I wished they kept the dominant style of Asuka. But maybe they're trying to push Emma more since she's really talented herself and to build herself up for a future match with Paige. Asuka should have squash matches with Fox, Dana and a few others.
question: do you think Asuka vs Charlotte is possible at survivor series?

Hearing Corey bust out laughing during Elias/Jordan reaffirms my belief that Booker T is a national treasure. Sure, he says things that make no sense. Sure, he flubs his lines sometimes. But, he's entertaining enough to make up for it. There's something about his act that makes me think that Vince and the producers just let him go out and be himself instead of force feeding him lines.
Perfect example of the opposite: the announcers keep saying Survivor Series is the only time Raw vs Smackdown happens, when that's clearly not true. AJ on Raw tonight. House shows. Royal Rumble.
The refreshed Invasion angle has potential, but the set up needed more. If it were me, I'd have some backstage segments where the Raw roster laughs about how Smackdown sucks, is weak, all losers, etc (a nice replacement for tonight's corny ass segments). Then Kurt challenges Shane saying the Smackdown roster is garbage, second class, etc. Then it would make sense for SD to unite and invade. A nice twist to Survivor Series would be a divided Raw roster vs. a united Smackdown Roster. Or, alternatively, one team of all faces and the other of all heels.
Non-wrestling question for Wai. How's the mouth guard thing working? Have you noticed a difference?

Jesse from the 6
So they put Balor over AJ, possibly to build him up for Brock. But then...he loses to the 50-year old Kane. WTF? Just trash; pure trash.
On the positive side, I enjoyed Heyman's promo tonight. I've grown tired of his shtick this year, but I thought he was a bit more creative tonight. Which is funny, because I'm infinitely less interested in Lesnar-Mahal than I was in either Braun or Joe.
Does either of you remember what happened 24 years ago tonight? Something very important to both of you.
Take Care

My soul died a seeing Shinsuke Nakamura wearing that fucking generic "Smack Down Live" blue t-shirt!
I am not looking forward to Bragging Rights in November!
ALSO: The hell kind of sympathy I'm supposed to feel for "baby face" Shane on Tuesday Night as he confronts Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens (if he's there)
when he just ordered his evil henchmen (and women) the "Blue Crew" beat up the RAW Mid-Card (including Poor Finn Balor) while Kurt acted like old helpless man?
Bragging Rights and go to HELL!

So Finn Balor is a certified bitch after this episode of Raw, right? Jobbing to Kane and gets taken out with the geeks in the early part of the siege. Is he being punished?

What's the motivation for the smackdown live attack on the raw locker room these guys and girls are all feuding with each other and yet mojo and Zack Ryder have no problem standing next to each other, the new day are babyfaces and they stand with despicable heels like Corbin and ziggler. All this because shane told them to half of them don't even like shane there's so many holes.

Tonight SDLive went completely heel and my heart broke watching Nakumura and AJ out with the masses in a dumb angle that makes no sense. Corbin bullied their own camera guy who probably also works Smackdown while New Day cheered. Cole and Graves call both shows so I have no clue how they spin this tomorrow to make anyone on Smackdown likeable. Back to AJ and Nakumura - you know who wasn't there: Orton and the champs. Seriously?
I hate this company. I mean I watch it every week but only this company could showcase AJ - Balor last night and follow it up with this nonsense.
Question: my buddy says he can't get behind Finn Balor as a top guy because his finisher is too telegraphed and not believable. Your thoughts on if this holds him back any to people seeing him in WWE only and not NXT or NJPW.

Ending segment was executed terribly. The backstage brawls look like shit. The commentary and Kurt sold it like it was vicious but random Raws have way more vicious looking backstage brawls.

I’m not sure if an episode of Raw has ended and left me with such a weird feeling. I typically love a good invasion angle, but why would a face commissioner lead his guys in to attack the Raw roster? And why would top faces like AJ Styles, that just tagged with Ambrose and Rollins, and Shinske Nakamura just take part in this with no explanation? Are the entire Smackdown Live roster members heels? Hoping maybe they can tie up a bunch of loose ends on SD Live tomorrow, but instead I’m guessing we’ll just see the Raw roster return the favor. Any idea how they will try to justify this?

Did you notice how they referred to AJ's move as it should be called? The Ushigoroshi? Screw the "modified neckbreaker." Since Angle pinned Miz, does that mean he gets a shot at the IC title or do you see him passing the possible title shot to Jason Jordan?

Kash from Ajax
The most rated G invasion of all time. All the Smackdown crew did was break one TV screen, and punched and kicked a few guys. No weapons, no blood, no carnage and absolutely no reaction from the crowd.
Although this was one of the few segments that didn't make me embarrassed to be a wrestling fan, this segment made me question whether or not I should take a break from watching wrestling for a while. I'm one of the few die hard fans left from the attitude era - I just don't think I'm in their target market anymore.
Oh and they did a fabulous job of turning Balor into one of their mid card geeks.
I would love to know if you guys would be watching this every week if it wasn't a part of your job?
