Raw is barely trying.
The WRESTLERS are trying, don't get me wrong.
But the SHOW is phoning it in like crazy.
And the crowd simply can't distinguish between effort and non-effort. They barely even know who they want to cheer for.
Everything sucks. Let's talk about it.

Somehow Bronson Reed is the new member of the Seth Riders. It makes zero sense and it is also freaking AWESOME.
Everything else on the card so far has been at least uninspired or at worst straight up dumb.
Jesse Ventura burying the product was the best thing on the show by far.
Everything sucks. Let's talk about it.
(If Kate shows up, we'll do Saturday Night of Blind. She's probably busy, though)

We were told that the announcement for Atlant...

More changes are on the way to TNA TV.
Recently, TNA requested that their talent scale back on the utilization of blood in matches, after the company felt like talent had went a bit overboard. In our interview shortly after with Steve Maclin, he stated that he believed the company was doing it so it would mean more whenever they brought it back.
Now, Fightful Select has heard of other changes. We got word that the talent relations department passed down a memo that stated that s...

Saturday Night's Main Event is tomorrow.
Friday Night's Undercard is tonight.
And it's ... very undercard-ish.
The Tag Title Match main evengt has a lot of potential, though.
So let's watch that, while we talk about how it only took them six months to turn the Women's US Title into an absolute joke championship.
Everything sucks.
