    What did you think man?

    I think most of it was scripted except for when Cena jumped on Roman saying "Its called a promo kid you're gonna have to learn how to do them eventually" Roman was getting s---t pissed. That's when he fired up and abandoned his line and just called Cena a punk a--- b---- twice.

    Cena said he went after personal s--- with The Rock cuz he was trying to bring the best out of him and I think that's what he was trying to do last night with Roman...jumping on him off script every chance he had. Problem was Roman aint The Rock and got embarrassed lol

    That's the problem with scripting these dudes every night for years...they're not used to thinking on their feet and look like s--- when they try

    Honestly I felt it was all scripted when I watched but your explanation and example with the Rock made me have a bit of doubt.

    Overall it was great though, thought Reigns did real good as well and it was the most interested ive ever been in a Reigns promo. but if he legit forgot his lines then yeah that's pretty bad lol.. still leaning towards scripted but who knows.

    WWE Raw preview, Sept. 4, 2017: Big Show and Braun Strowman to clash inside a steel cage
    Live on Raw, Big Show and Braun Strowman will battle in a Steel Cage Match. Which of these titans will triumph inside the unforgiving structure? Also on Raw, Jeff Hardy challenges The Miz for the Intercontinental Championship.

    1. Big Show to battle Braun Strowman in a Steel Cage Match
    Universal Champion Brock Lesnar might want to take Braun Strowmanto Suplex City at WWE No Mercy on Sept. 24, but first, as first reported by Cathy Kelley in a WWE.com Exclusive video, The Monster Among Men will climb into a steel cage with Big Show, live on Raw.

    When Strowman and the giant last collided one-on-one, the juggernauts caused the ring to collapse under their combined weight after a massive superplex by The Gift of Destruction. We can only imagine what kind of havoc they will unleash on each other — and their surroundings — when they enter the unforgiving steel.

    One can only hope that the structure is reinforced for what should be a brutal confrontation. Can Big Show end Strowman’s seemingly unstoppable rampage, or will The Monster Among Men send a grisly message to The Beast Incarnate, who will no doubt be paying close attention to the carnage?

    Don’t miss this titanic showdown live on Raw, beginning at 8/7 C on USA Network.

    2. Will Jeff Hardy become a five-time Intercontinental Champion on Raw?
    By tossing Jason Jordan over the top rope in the final moments of last week’s 15-Man Battle Royal, Jeff Hardy punched his ticket to an Intercontinental Championship showdown against The Miz on Raw, a match that could propel The Charismatic Enigma to his fifth reign with the illustrious title.

    Even though The A-Lister has The Miztourage on his side, Jeff’s brother Matt will surely help neutralize Miz’s conniving co-stars outside the ring, perhaps making this match more of a fair fight than the current titleholder is used to these days.

    And yet, Miz did score the winning pinfall when The Hardy Boyz teamed with Jason Jordan against The A-Lister and his Miztourage during the SummerSlam Kickoff, which was the last time The Awesome One stood across the ring from his new challenger. Will history repeat itself on Raw, or will The Charismatic Enigma use his veteran savvy to claim the gold?

    3. Can we expect more fireworks between John Cena and Roman Reigns?
    Well, that escalated quickly. John Cena and Roman Reigns met in the center of the ring this past Monday night to make their WWE No Mercymatch official, and the resulting microphone mayhem that transpired between the larger-than-life Superstars has us clamoring for their forthcoming dream match on Sunday, Sept. 24.

    The Cenation Leader and The Big Dog were somewhat civil when they triumphantly teamed up against Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson moments after their verbal joust, but something tells us the next time these two rivals see each other, they’ll trade more than just insults.

    4. Nia Jax makes major Raw Women's Championship statement
    Alexa Bliss is the new Raw Women’s Champion, but she definitely didn’t look like a winner when this past Monday’s broadcast drew to a close. As Nia Jax hoisted the triumphant “Goddess” onto her shoulder after her victory over Sasha Banks, Alexa’s imposing would-be ally sent the new titleholder crashing to the canvas, seizing the moment to hold Bliss’ new title above her own head.

    How will Alexa deal with Nia on Raw? Moreover, how will The Boss bounce back after once again failing to retain the Raw Women’s Championship?

    5. What's next for Emma?
    Well, we all might have to #GiveEmmaAChance after what transpired Monday night, when the bitter Superstar earned a surprise victory over decorated veteran Mickie James. This marks Emma’s first one-on-one victory since May of last year, and her triumph could be a new beginning for the former fan-favorite. Will Emma gain more momentum this week?

    Don’t miss Raw at 8/7 C on USA Network!​

    Creative: Brock isn't on Raw this week, what do we do with Strowman?
    Other creative member: Well Roman is busy, so, BIG SHOW!

    I'm actually not mad at it, Show and Strowman always have badass matches, I'm sure they'll do something cool with the cage

    Tuned in right before the cage match, and just like the other Show/Strowman matches I thought it was very good tbh. I had never seen someone hit the cage as hard as Braun

    Strowman is beyond his years as a talent right now

    The main event was fun. WWE has a lot of great tag teams on both Raw and Smackdown right now. The one thing I dislike about the brand split is that we don't get to see all these teams mix it up against each other

    Yo @WrestlingBros the latest Botchamania had some of the best endings in recent memory. There's one with the Show/Strowmwn cage match that had me dying.

    WWE Raw preview, Sept. 25, 2017: "Miz TV to kick off Raw with special guest Roman Reigns"
    In the wake of Roman Reigns’ iconic victory over 16-time World Champion John Cena, Intercontinental Champion The Miz is looking to hit The Big Dog with a slew of hard questions on “The Most Must-See TV Show in WWE History.”

    What will happen when Reigns is the guest on a special "Miz TV" to kick off Raw?
    In an iconic showdown that took both Roman Reigns and John Cena to the absolute limit in a barrage of Attitude Adjustments, Spears and Superman Punches, The Big Dog overcame the 16-time World Champion at WWE No Mercy. Cena raised Reigns’ hand, and a mutual respect was evident between the two tremendous competitors. More importantly, The Big Dog showed once and for all that he is indeed ready to stand at the top of WWE.

    In the aftermath, though, The Miz proposed a special “Miz TV” to Raw General Manager Kurt Angle, an exclusive interview that he would conduct with Reigns to ask hard-hitting questions concerning the black-clad Superstar’s epic match against Cena, recent buzz surrounding Reigns and his “old buddies” and more.

    Don’t miss when “Miz TV” kicks off Raw tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network.

    With a loss to Brock Lesnar, is Braun Strowman more dangerous than ever?
    Just in case the ground was shaking a little too much that the people couldn’t see the match clearly, Universal Champion Brock Lesnar survived the incredible challenge from Braun Strowman at WWE No Mercy.

    And as the dust cleared, two things were certain. First, the next time the WWE Universe sees Paul Heyman and his conquering client, The Advocate will not be at a loss for words. And second, Monday Night Raw had better get ready for the fallout from The Monster Among Men. If there is one thing more dangerous than a victorious Strowman, it’s one who has been bested.

    What will be the fallout from chaotic Raw Woman's Champion Fatal 5-Way Match?
    Yes, Alexa Bliss emerged victorious against the odds in an extremely turbulent Fatal 5-Way Raw Women’s Championship Match at WWE No Mercy, but how will the chaotic free-for-all transform the Women’s division moving forward? Can Alexa and Nia Jax just go back to being best friends? What about Bayley and Sasha Banks? Who came out of the fray in the best position to challenge the “Goddess of WWE” next?

    Moreover, the announcement that dominant former NXT Champion Asuka will make her main roster debut at WWE TLC will surely make for an even more unstable Women’s division.

    How long is the Enzo Amore era destined to last?
    At WWE No Mercy, Enzo Amore hit an illegal low blow to overcome Neville and capture the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Both Monday Night Raw and WWE 205 Live have been left no choice but to prepare themselves for the new era of The Realest Guy in the Room.

    But how long will that era last? Fueled by a thirst for retribution, The King of the Cruiserweights will certainly be targeting the new titleholder.

    Will Jason Jordan get another opportunity at the Intercontinental Champion?
    Surprise, surprise, The Miztourage helped The A-Lister retain his coveted Intercontinental Championship against up-and-comer Jason Jordan at WWE No Mercy.

    As the smoke cleared on the controversial matchup, a disappointed Jordan made no bones about the fact that he still doesn’t respect the crafty titleholder for his tactics and would indeed like another bout for the gold. But will he get it in the weeks to come? And if he does, will such a rematch cause friction with the locker room, especially with Jordan’s father being Raw General Manager Kurt Angle?​

    Gotta assume that closing segment was meant to write Neville out of the Cruiserweight division. Hope he doesn't end up just floundering in the mid-card and does something meaningful

    I honestly don’t understand WWE’s booking of Enzo

    Apparently they hate the way he acts backstage so badly that they took a guy who was selling tons of merch and was getting one of the biggest face reactions on the show and squashed him every week for months so that his reaction slowing declined week by week...

    Then they turned him heel last night? I put a question mark cuz I’m honestly not even 100% sure that’s what they did lol

    It’s baffling...not to mention instead of using his popularity to help get more eyes on the CW show they used him to completely burry the whole division in his promo last night.
