My wife, kids, and I laughed out asses off at the Miz with an invisible Cena segment. We thought it was great.

[@owenpercival9875]

You’re definitely in the minority lol. But glad you enjoyed it

[@BmanTheChamp]

I definitely enjoyed the cameraman fully committing to the bit during the entrance.

[@prj7894]

didn't these marks loved the invisible man match ...i guess they must criticize WWE to satisfy their mark consumers

[@TouringFunkBand1]

It ruled. Bryan is coping

[@xShoTime83x]

Miz promo with an invisible John Cena: 🤬 Random indy geek wrestling the invisible man: 🥰 Geek Chico, All the tme: 🤡

[@DavidRamirez-sh5xd]

He hate the "You can't see me" thing but loves Orange Cassidy's kicks. LOL

[@blaze5645]

People throw around the term "generational talent" a lot. Someone like Gunther isn't gonna happen again for a LONG while. No one ever gets tired of him holding the belt, because none of his matches are bad, none of them are alright, none of them are good. They are all GREAT. They're feeding him all the right people. Trips clearly has a soft spot for him. If they keep him happy, he'll deliver, and every Gunther match will be a certified classic until the day he retires. And if they don't keep him happy... Well, he can go to AEW, and we can finally see Claudio vs. Gunther.

[@sheasheagaming1660]

No one gets over from developmental? Are you serious? Most of the roster is from NXT including nearly all of their champs.

[@dolandarkxgrandayy6953]

Jey Uso and Sami Zayn reuniting was more powerful than Kenny and Kota reuniting.

[@christophermarriott1681]

😂 Nice joke. Omega and Kota actually have a long-term story not that fake WWE stuff.

[@keni95851]

who?

[@nyameleyefekaska2895]

@@christophermarriott1681Sami and Jey was long-term storytelling. And both are “fake”. Homie you’re really bad at this tribalist thing😂.

[@brianhopson2072]

The Gunther match would have been better if there was more match than extended commercial breaks. My dad watches wrestling with me for the first time in decades, and it was that. He can't see the picture in picture which was when most of the spots took place.

[@TouringFunkBand1]

Miz segment ruled.

[@gabrielemazzoli]

I really liked this Miz segment. Gunther/Gable was nice, but damn the commercials were all over it!

[@jujarre]

Bryan Alvarez always holds WWE to a higher caliber of criticism....yet he openly says otherwise.

[@prj7894]

[@owenpercival9875]

When Chads straps were already down, then he looked around the crowd as he put them up. Then his rips them down again and goes crazy

[@jonpower9728]

We should all be hugging more in général anyway. Wrestling is ahead of the curve on this one.

[@brianhunter4860]

Honestly a pretty good RAW all the way thru imo

[@GaryNumanfan-uo3nz]

Ah Bryan. A man who’s done nothing in wrestling (and god knows he’s tried) calling the most successful wrestling promoter of all time, who also happens to be the best heel of the Attitude Era….an idiot.

[@alexmelendez6732]

Def 5 star match possible match of the year. I wondee if cena & mizz do it again.

[@omegaman6494]

I don't think McMahon or Russo have ever had genuine friends which is why they always booked people who didn't like each other in tag teams

[@Nathan-oo2ik]

Undertaker has said multiple times Vince is one of his best friends.

[@1234_Flux]

Vince is good friends with R-Truth

[@stayhigh3659]

Gunther is HIM 😤💯

[@doug2731]

Too bad about the two lengthy commercial breaks. I can't be bothered to watch the tiny screen. Regardless of that, Gunther by far is the best wrestler in the business.

[@PoppaMorris]

Top 2, don't forget about Toru Yano

[@benespinosa6725]

Gunther Vs Chad Gable on Raw was amazing when was the last time the IC Title main evented Raw someone please help me out with that statistic?

[@NicTHiQ]

7:45 can someone explain to why Brian needs to compare this to AEW (Ricky danielson) i just don’t see the comparison at all

[@VIRAX200394]

Cus Gunther tried to mvrder Gable just as Danielson's attempted homicide on Ricky at All Out. Also, in both cases we thought there was no way in hell that Gable was gonna beat Gunther (just as we thought no way in hell Ricky was gonna beat Bryan ina fvcking STRAP MATCH), but they made us believe.

[@jeffreyeze3941]

5 star ⭐

[@Pgmcgown317]

Bryan, I always agree with you I’m a long time fan always listen to your reports… and I agree with you almost always specially about Vinces bullshit Ways… But I gotta say, I absolutely despise the friend versus friend gimmick… I thought it ruined all in and it’s just not what I wanna see in the main event… Maybe in a mid card match once in a while… And I understand you have to build to the split to get heat… But that was the perfect time to split… Maybe it’ll be another time later down but this friend versus friend hugging crap is not what I wanna see in wrestling

[@SasukesSharingan.]

Brian is horrible at reviews.. who leaves out the important parts or the storylines in reviews . Also didnt you guve omega vs a blow up dolls alot of stars😂? But the miz segment was bad ? It was actually entertaining

[@puffnzen420]

I have to admit, I did laugh at Bryan's review of miz's SNL skit longer than the skit itself 🤣

[@Blind_Sexy_and_Taken]

Brian should tell this advice to Tony. He has people get together and turn on each other within a few months. Sometimes even weeks. So do not act like Vince McMahon is the only one guilty of that. Tony is absolutely so much worse about that than Vince ever has been.

[@GrimReader]

No idea how they fumbled Nakamura again. If Seth has real back issues they should’ve put over Nakamura so he can get time off

[@BmanTheChamp]

Nakamura's never going to be a top champion because of the language barrier. Sorry to say it but it's the truth. If anything Priest should have cashed in.

[@xiondFirst]

Gunther's IC Title run makes that title run feel like World Heavyweight Championship and vise versa. When Gunther loses IC Title he should win the world Heavyweight championship because Seth has been great but not Gunther great.

[@1985nyg]

The match wasn’t that great. There wasn’t enough gymnastics or obvious cooperation for my liking. Also everything they did made sense. Where’s the hype in that?

[@cowpalacedave]

Chad Gable is a joke!
