    Wade Barrett referred to Ciampa being on the NXT Mount Rushmore, which I agree with.

    Who would the other three be? Seems like Gargano is another given. Adam Cole? Sami? Sasha or Bayley?

    Men: Ciampa, Gargano, Balor, Joe

    Women: Sasha, Bayley, Asuka, Bayszler

    So they finally "killed off" the former GYV from Schism, and looks like Wes Lee is getting a call up? Maybe coming back as a heel to encounter whoever wins between Carmelo and Ilya?

    Bron vs. Baron should be interesting. I suppose the fans will treat Bron as the face?

    Wow. They actually let Becky end Tiffany's reign, but Tiffany is going to be a superstar one. She looked damn good tonight.

    That was one hell of a match Lynch took Stratton through

    Stratton is already beyond ready physically. Just needs a tad more character work.

    Figuring this'll be like when Ziggler won the championship off Bron, and Tiffany will get her rub from Becky at No Mercy.

    See what the ratings are, with the NFL dragging Raw down if Becky pops numbers for NXT I’d leave her there for a while.

    There’s some potential amazing/fun matches in that deep women’s division. Cora Jade would be great.

    Plus it keeps Becky doing something meaningful while also far away from Rhea Ripley.

    But between Trish and now Tiffany Becky is one of hell of a run

    I wonder if RAW will ever decide to avoid the MNF beatings 18 weeks a year and move off of Monday nights.

    It’s hard to believe that for a brief time during the late 90s that MNF execs were worried that pro wrestling was cutting into their ratings.

    The problem though, is when else could they put Raw on. They won’t have it on Thursdays since Smackdown is the next night. Wednesdays, they’re competing with AEW. Perhaps Tuesdays, but if it was workable before, they would have done it already.
