I really don't understand that match. Why doesn't Braun win for surviving 10 minutes with someone who is vastly better and more experienced in their craft?

Foley's hair doesn't even look real anymore.

I mean, I'd agree if it were between a lot of people. But if it's between two I think it just show's they're equally matched. The Charlotte wins on PPVs Sash on Raw thing is dumb though.

Solid match, a shame it felt like a re-run from Raw with that finish.

Couldn't hold on for 2 more seconds. :lol:

Sasha looks a total mess now.

Great match, but an absolute joke of a result.

It's clear they are going for some Ric Flair type title record with Charlotte but its an utter joke. Is that her had the most women's titles already then? Maybe tied with Trish or Lita?

That's my interest in the women's title completely killed.

Hated the end to the Women's match. It would have been great if Sasha survived over a minute of the figure 4 even it nearly broke her ala Stone Cold in the sharpshooter.

To tap with 2 seconds left is just ridiculous. It should have been around 20 seconds to have made it less stupid.

Charlotte has now held the title 6 times (NXT, Divas, RAW; 2014-2016) compared to Lita's 4 and Trish Stratus' 7.

It's like they're trying to get her to equal her Dad in double quick time.

It's getting ridiculous. Their desire to constantly have her as champion is putting me off the Raw women's division. I think their fixation with her it worse than HHH during 02-03.

I wonder if she's told them that she only wants to wrestle for another few years or something before having a family or just not doing it anymore. Because if she has a long career then she's either going to have to spend years in the wilderness away from the title or she will be a 39 times women's champ in five years time.

The problems of the brand split (and running 3 different shows) is starting to become really evident already after just 6 months. Roadblock was made-up of nothing but matches we've seen over and over again.

Just as i predicted the announcer called Zayn the winner and the commentators had to try to cover for the error and now wwe.com have had to try to backtrack and say that Zayn won the challenge and not the match so that they can protect Strowmans unbeaten streak :lol: I knew that this would happen.

Anyway im trying to watch roadblock but i'm not really that into it.

Are they that petty?

No one has pinned him. Who cares if he 'technically' won. A heluva kick didn't even knock him down.

Of course they are.

What I found odd was how the ref acted like he had no idea what to do when the ironman match was tied at 2-2. The commentators even said that normally it would be called a tie so why did the ref order sudden death? Shouldn't Foley or Steph have been the ones to come out and order the match to be continued?

Vince absolutely is :lol: He was probably strawberry floating fuming down the headset at the commentators telling them how to correct it.

I think this is a small price to pay to be honest, generally the brand split has been initially handled much better than the first time they did it and the quality of Raw and Smackdown has definitely improved.

Now they are driving people to the network they can get away with the odd monthly PPV being a bit shite as generally it doesn't really feel like you have blown your money unlike the old days.
