[6.0] "this was a mess of a WWE episode which should of been really good as it was season prem, retribution match none of the retribution members can wrestle they were all falling over like jobbers and it felt like a bad jobber squash match, 2nd match was not as good as previous encounters on Smackdown, 3rd match was awful womens tag belts match was more a work the crowd match and should of been the opeaner as it had all the aspects, Kofi's match should of been main event it was an excelent encounter both men gave it there all Otis's match was funny, mainevent was a downer was expecting it too be good but it was really bad and why give Elias a no talent who can't sing or play guitar a concert those minutes should of went too the mainevent between Keith and Braun. Jeff Hardy played better guitar then any of Eliases band members. I also skipped the last promo as was allready angry at WWE's booking ideas this week and didn't want too be more angry at them."
[4.0] "Good points: Styles/Riddle match, Kingston/Sheamus one and the Fiend/Bliss story. Bad points: Retribution! And the average matches of the rest of the card. Very bad season premiere compared to the SD one."
[6.0] "Average episode, some fun segments, but ununderstanable booking A 3 minutes main event ? ! Top 3 of the Night 3. Bray Wyatt & Alexa Bliss 2. Mustafa Ali 1. Jordan Omogbehin & AJ Styles"
[4.0] "This episodes was one of the worst Raw's in recent memory. Awful booking left and right. They are killing all the new upstarts: retribution, Keith Lee, Riddle, etc. The Alexa/Fiend/Firefly funhouse stuff does not connect with me, but maybe it's a draw for others? That seems like the only positive raw has going for it right now. On the plus side I LOL'd with Otis in the fat lucha costume: shades of Juan Cena!"
[0.0] "A 3-minute match as main event and keith lee losing like that ? braun strowman didn't even hit his finisher. Raw is just a joke . even these 2 million viewers that we watch raw we are heroes. Retribution lost like that even though vince was pushing them all these months , and they even lost their first official match from Mvp stable ? a stable of jobbers expect bobby lashley lol . Booking is just a mess"
[5.0] "Good things : AJ Styles with Jordan Omogbehin, Asuka who squash Lana, a solid bout between Kingston and Sheamus. Bad things : Peyton Royce with Lacey Evans, the dead of RETRIBUTION, the disappointing main event. The rest I don't care."
[1.0] "Nope, just nope to this show. Sure some good stuff happened but there was so much damaging booking that it undoes the few positives, which felt more like neutrals anyway. Please fix your show."
[6.0] "Conflicted about that show. It was never boring, which is not easy to do with a 3 hour show. The in ring action we got was pretty decent, even through most of the matches were too short. Ali and Miz promos were fire, and I like the goofiness around Otis. The problems are that booking decisions around Retritubution and Keith Lee were more than questionable and women's division seems to not have a direction. I don't feel it was as bad as the general consensus seems to be, my primary concern is the entertainment value of the show, WWE has proven many times they can get around previous poor booking decisions so i look at them as something which disminishes the show's quality, not something that ruins it, so I give it a 6, but I understand that most fans are more frustrated than I am."
