THE RAW REVIEW (12/8/14)

I typically approach viewing "special" episodes of RAW like a Slammy Awards Show with dread. In the past I've found such episodes hard to stomach.

So I decided to experiment with the way I watched RAW. I decided that I would go into it with a positive attitude, that I wouldn't be overly critical, that I would judge it based on exactly what it was, and just find joy in whatever was enjoyable. I wouldn't question why the WWE didn't create an entirely separate Slammy Awards special for the WWE Network. I would instead just "go along with it", all the while ensuring my brain was still engaged.

THE RAW REVIEW (10/20/14)

Monday Night Raw was incredibly strong this week (and emotionally moving, upon reflection), reinforcing a solid narrative foundation for the upcoming Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.

This was the show fans, and especially the two top-stories, needed. If the WWE was hoping to create incentive for people to purchase the Network, and also get fans more invested in the "double-main-event" then the WWE has succeeded.
