A gimmick that hasn't worked in two decades.

Nowhere near enough wrestling for King of the Ring last night. They had one hour for three matches and only had 17 minutes of wrestling. Too many pointless promos and way too many commercials for the Network.

This KOTR is indeed completely random and so rushed. I watched ER on Monday afternoon and only read Raw results around Tuesday night and it's like "KOTR finals tonight!", lol. Granted Barrett was a good choice for a winner but the tourney seems to have been really meh (granted the distraction finishes also didn't help, I'm sure).

I liked the idea of having a mid-week mini ppv on the network but it definitely could have used a couple weeks of promotion. With as popular as tournaments are lately (specifically BOLA and G1) bringing back King of the Ring could be potentially a great idea, but only if they make it great.

On the flip side, at least Barrett getting a crappy/stereotypical King gimmick and then doing nothing with the win after a few months won't feel like such a pointless waste.

Outside of Cena, the entire main roster right now is still damaged goods.

It would be awesome if they did it, but they're way too afraid to make their top faces lose in order for it to happen

It was very refreshing but kind of sad. It's not like every segment was A+ but just throwing in a really good Ambrose/Rollins match, a fun debut, and everything else being fine to good make a enjoyable episode. Wish they could do that every week.

Agreed, good Raw. Bummer about Zayn's shoulder going out early.

Is Kane supposed to not make sense by his actions?

More than anything, I'm impressed that Ambrose wasn't totally boring to watch. Randy Orton still was, but that's a gimme.
I am cosmetically pleasing.

Ambrose being added to the WWE World Title Match at Payback immediately raised my interest level for the PPV.
