So what are you suggesting, when they switch from chanting about restarting the match they just started chanting more quietly? Because if it was the "entire arena" as you so claim, that would be the only explanation for the AEW chants to be significantly quieter.
Significantly quieter? Yeah, no . It’s the full arena. I’ll also trust the reports from people who were actually there
Seems like there’s less chatter about Monday’s episode of RAW. The WWE brand has been damaged as some regulars are just asking if there’s anything worth watching instead of watching RAW
Either they have to have the Fiend come out and literally destroy Seth tonight, or they should just find a way to drop this feud.
There's a trust factor in terms of selling PPV's and the fans are certainly going to have less trust, especially the long term damage is to subscription numbers to the network.
It will be interesting to see the fans reaction on Raw tonight when Seth comes out.
Looks like the angle that they are taking is that this is what the Fiend wanted to happen.
The build was that Seth has a demon inside him, and for Seth to “Let him in”.
I do think that’s is kind what they wanted to convey in that match - that the Fiend has Rollins so scared that he was willing to go to far to beat him.
But the issue was with the execution of the DQ and the stretcher.
Run the exact same match but then have the lights go out after the sledgehammer hit, then have the lights come back up and Bray is no longer under the pile of ladders.
Then ref calls for the bell since it’s a no contest since Bray is gone. The the lights go out again, this time the red lights come on and it’s Bray standing behind Seth. The claw gets applied and the show fades to black.
Same end result but better execution and would have made more sense.

Now that AEW is on TSN and Sportsnet does a condensed version of NXT, I cancelled my WWE Network subscription. I'll miss the Takeovers but I can find those online. Picking my battles!
Having the show end with a brawl for the second straight week wasn't great but overall I thought it was pretty good. The Bucks/Private Party match was really well done.
I thought that AEW would force WWE to up their game writing wise. But tonights Raw was just really not good. And the ending with Rollins attacking the Firefly funhouse, beating up Bray and then burning it down was awful.
In the span of two weeks they're really made me lose interest in the Fiend storyline as Rollins has pretty much dominated it.

Rumor is that both NJPW and WWE have announcements in Japan this week. The former is likely to announce matchups for Wrestle Kingdom (and rumors of a partnership), and the latter might be announcing NXT Japan. Would be crazy if there was a partnership there, especially with NJPW not exactly in love with AEW.

I'm still waiting for the announcement of NXT Canada.
The rumor is that it would partner up with Anthony Carelli and Battlearts

After what I read about Raw while I was at work, I decided to just delete Raw from my PVR for good. They just have no clue what they're doing anymore. I'll stick to reading the results and then watching the videos if anything actually interests me.

I didn't have a practice last night so I thought it would be nice to catch up on Raw. 30 minutes later I was praying for practice. It just wasn't a good show.
