Trowd seemed up for most of it (poor Mojo Rowley) and Raw was likely helped by the fact it was taped so it was constantly moving. You will be glad to know there wasn\u2019t too much awkward waiting in the ring. My wife, who hasn\u2019t watched wrestling since the Steve Austin era, also had a great time.<\/p>\n<p>That said, and I could be wrong and jumping the gun before watching it air on TV, but it didn\u2019t feel too much was developed from a storyline point of view unless bits are being added that we didn&#8217;t see in the arena. Especially with Seth Rollins and A.J. Styles. After Styles walking off last week, there was very little follow up just a couple\u00a0of promos. Could they be planning something for tomorrow? If not, it feels like the build has cooled off or am being too down on it. Being a Rollins fan, I was hoping to see an angle play out tonight.<\/p>\n<p>On a side note, was Roman Reigns really needed tonight? It felt liked he was wedged in? There were certainly a few boos for him but comfortably way more cheers. He has a great presence, but I can\u2019t help but feel he&#8217;s out there just going through the motions. Does he truly care about wrestling? I don\u2019t feel like he does.<\/p>\n<p>While three hours is without doubt too long for a weekly TV show, I also find it hard to see how they can\u2019t use the extra time they have to further develop characters and storylines and at least make use of the time instead of just packing full of filler content and Baron Corbin. There are still so many talented wrestlers on the roster we know very little about, Ricochet, the Viking Raiders, even Ember Moon )and she was called up 12 months ago). Am I expecting too much?<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-70780356\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>For FULL SPOIELERS, check out ProWrestling.net&#8217;s report <a href=\"https:\/\/prowrestling.net\/site\/2019\/05\/13\/wwe-raw-taping-in-london-spoilers-full-results-of-tonights-television-show-spoilers\/\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2019\/05\/13\/wwe-raw-primer-05-13-spoiler-free-becky-2-contracts-dogs-allowed-on-miz-tv-womens-fatal-four-way-ricochet-vs-corbin-monster-vs-psychopath-a-clash\/\">WWE RAW PRIMER 5\/13: (SPOILER-FREE), Becky \u201c2 Contracts,\u201d Dogs Allowed on Miz TV, Women\u2019s Fatal Four-Way, Ricochet vs. Corbin, Monster vs. Psychopath, A \u201cClash\u201d of Styles and a Beast Slayer, Rabbit \u201cFood\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>If you attend a live event, please send results with details on the matches, crowd reactions, and attendance to <a href=\"mailto:pwtorch@pwtorch.com\">pwtorch@pwtorch.com<\/a>.
