Ups & Downs From WWE RAW (Aug 9)

Loved the fact where fans were trying to give Corbin some cash, and also justice for the kid with poster 'Simon give me an up' at the begining of the show, chuckled a lot.

I need to see Orton turn Riddle into a serious, brooding threat on Raw. That would be amazing but I won't hold my breath hoping for it.

They're gonna milk him as a babyface first as part of RKBro then turn him into a dark Bro.

RKBro was awesome last night! It was great seeing Orton back and the whole breakup tease. Also, I actually really excited to see what happens with the artist formally known as Elias.

I hope they don't fire Elias!

[@ourladyofguadalupebotanica6732]

I disagree about Mansoor and Ali not working. I love their dynamic...tho, it's kind of like a midcard version of RK-Bro. Slowly Ali is starting to warm up to Mansoor, despite losing, and T-Bar/Mace are actually getting wins for once so a double win in my book.
