I will say that even with wasted time there was still some good to come out of last night's episode of WWE Monday Night Raw. There was even good stuff mixed in with the wastes of time that they had. The Seth Rollins and Ezekiel match was good even though we knew what the outcome was going to be. The womans tag match was a waste of time and their mixing of the 24/7 Title nonsense in there didn't help anything. Theory and AJ Styles put on one hell of a match and adding the Dolph Ziggler aspect to it makes it more exciting because you know that Ziggler and Theory can tear it down in a match. Then we get to the one part of the speech that Titus gave to start the show. He said that they don't do anything divisive or political but if memory serves me, they let BLM armbands and people to discuss it like Big E on his WWE Network special and they didn't shut up about "Doing Your Part" and "Getting the Covid vaccine." For months they did the vaccine one and those two topics are extremely divisive and political last time I checked.

I must say I am pleased with the latest wrestling news that Raw is going back to TV-14 after just under 14 years and the end of the PG Era. I think it could be a good thing if done correctly and it will be a great opportunity for the Superstars like Kevin Owens, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, Theory, Asuka, Edge, Riddle, and many others to show who they truly are. Only thing to do now is to wait and see how they do it and where it goes going forward. Hopefully it bleeds into NXT 2.0 as well and can be a companywide plan.

Justins Wrestling Roulette Episode 7 - WWE NXT 2.0, Summer Slam, The Brave Little Toaster, and More

Today Justin finished off his list of 90's retro throwback. I start out before that discussing how many tv segments that WWE seems to love to waste on entrances, Joe Gacy and the Grizzled Young Veterans, and needing to drop the PG-Era for TV-14 sooner than Summer Slam because NXT is more edgy then Raw anymore and they're both on the same network. We then move onto pop culture and items from the 90's like Flavor Aid, Tiffani Thiessen, The Oregon Trail, Beavis and Butthead, The Brave Little Toaster and yes, I realize it's from 1987, Doug Funnie, and many others. We also discuss wrestling and discuss how they can use Edge at Summer Slam and who his partner could be in a tag against The Judgement Day, discuss what music Jericho would use if he ever went back to the machine, and many other topics from the wrestling world.
