3 | 03.05.2025 | AAPOCA | 7.0 | A nice episode of raw that had great things and bad things, the sami zayn and seth rollins angle was great, the match between bron and sami as also nice, rhea vs roxxane was good even if the ending was a Dq, the tag team division is still weird and just mid, jey uso vs logan paul is just bad, gunther and Pat McAfee is also really bad, but lyra and becky was good, but to be fair this episodes was literally had a bit of everything, one segment is good and the other is just bad. The final complaint is the crowd for some reason they were cheering the heels like bron and seth, i think they need to change something about that because in the last weeks the crowds are cheering the heels and that kinda disruptes the show for me. |

6 | 03.05.2025 | Open The Vault | 7.0 | The April 28th, 2025 edition of Monday Night RAW was yet again another superb episode of wrestling on a Monday. WWE manages to make RAW feel like must-see television on the weekly and I applaud the consistency with it. The main focus of this show was Seth Rollins' recent heel turn and building up his group. This episode established Seth as a wrong babyface heel if that makes sense. The ending shot of him stomping Sami Zayn's head into the ground was awesome. Everything else from this episode ranges from okay to decent. Nothing too incredible but the Rollins' angle carried this one for me. [***1/2] |

15 | 02.05.2025 | RestlingThots | 9.0 | 1) At first, I was surprised to see Seth Rollins basically being his old self. For a second, I thought to myself: "Wait, why did we all collectively decided that Seth Rollins turned heel? He didn't do anything wrong, after all. He didn't betray anyone at WrestleMania. Probably, Seth Rollins becoming a heel again was too good to be true, anyway." But then Sami Zayn's music hit and everything fell into place. What's a better way to establish someone like a despicable heel other than make him wrong a universally beloved babyface. Seth's performance in the opening, and especially in the ending, was cinema-grade. I caught myself thinking that the drama I see on my screen makes me feel the way the most acclaimed TV series like "Peaky Blinders" or "Game of Thrones" do. I bet Paul Heyman is behind producing all these segments. It was on the level of the classic Bloodline segments, but just with different characters. 2) Who let Lyra Valkyria wear that mini-skirt (or should I say "macro-belt"? ) in front of millions of people? Especially considering the physicality that took place in her segment. She looked like a cheap whore on the roadside at midnight, desperate to entice a bored truck driver. But even her vulgar appearance wasn't distracting enough to hide her atrociously bad mic skills. Who let her out of the developmental brand? I see the rating for this show to be rather low as for an episode with such an intricate storyline threading throughout the entire evening and culminating in one of the best transitions in pro-wrestling history: Bron Breakker's music hitting right after Sami's refusal to be intimidated and threatened by his former friend, and how suitable it is that the theme literally starts with an air alert siren, signalling imminent danger and instinctively making everyone look for a hideout. Everyone - but not the babyface, who stoically stood in the center of the ring waiting for the opponent he knows he can't defeat, because that's the choice he made, or rather, because there was no other choice he could realistically make. |

17 | 02.05.2025 | TomTakagi | 8.0 | Good show. Opening segment set up intrigue and a story for the episode, will Sami step aside to let Seth and his new faction take over Raw? Sami is just so good in the babyface underdog role, whether its matches or promo segments. Rhea vs Roxanne was really good (8) but I flip flop between whether the NXT women being involved on Raw is intriguing or baffling. Are Roxanne and Giulia main roster? Is Stephanie just a matter of months away? I can't say I'm looking forward to Logan Paul vs Jey Uso, but at least it's a unifying force to make sure peoplem get behind Jey. I'm more than a little concerned Logan will win though... Tag match was fine (6) with JD the standout, and I enjoyed New Day on comms. Becky and Lyra segment was good, and while Becky knocking Bayley off the Mania card still sucks, she's elevating Lyra exponentially by being in a story with her. A women's IC title match on PPV is great to see! Rusev's vignette was fine, still not sure where he fits in in WWE in 2025 though. Stephanie vs Ivy was fine (6) - Stephanie is a star but Ivy still needs some work (she's not terrible, but she's not main roster quality IMO). The Pat McAfee promo was good and I'll hold judgement on the match until we see it. It'll probably be fine, it's just a step down for Gunther (but he has a singles match on PPV despite not being champion, so that's good). Main event was effective in what it set out to do and a good little match (7). I'm enjoying the dynamic of this new trio. The shot of Seth's face when Sami told him no, and Bron's music hitting, was great production. Overall an 8 for the Rhea/Roxanne match, Sami/Seth/Bron segment and matches, and Becky and Lyra. One main criticism... In the same segment that Nick Aldis allowed Liv (a champion) time off for a film, he told Dom that being champion meant the workload got heavier. Nonsense. |
18 | 02.05.2025 | LobbyPrinzDE | 8.0 | Die jüngste Ausgabe von Monday Night Raw präsentierte eine Episode, die primär auf die Fortschreibung der Handlungsstränge im Vorfeld von Backlash ausgerichtet war. Ein zentraler Fokus lag dabei auf der Entwicklung der Geschichte zwischen Seth Rollins und Sami Zayn, deren Interaktionen die Sendung prägten und in einem signifikanten Ereignis am Ende kulminierten. Die präsentierten Damenmatches zeigten solide Leistungen und unterstrichen die Präsenz von Akteurinnen wie Giulia, Roxanne Perez und Stephanie Vaquer in der aktuellen RAW-Ausgabe. Das Match zwischen Rhea Ripley und Roxanne Perez hob sich dabei hervor, wenngleich der Ausgang durch eine Disqualifikation erfolgte. Die neu formierte Allianz zwischen Giulia und Roxanne Perez ließ indes noch Raum für eine tiefere narrative Fundierung erkennen. Die Ankündigung der Begegnung zwischen Jey Uso und Logan Paul für Backlash könnte von einigen Zuschauern als weniger aufregend wahrgenommen werden. Ebenso mag die Ansetzung des Matches zwischen Gunther und Pat McAfee unterschiedliche Reaktionen hervorrufen. Das Segment zwischen Becky Lynch und Lyra Valkyria trug zur Weiterentwicklung ihrer Rivalität um die Women's Intercontinental Championship bei. Die Kommentatoren des New Day steuerten humorvolle Elemente zur Sendung bei. Die Backstage-Begegnung zwischen Sami Zayn und Paul Heyman bot einen narrativen Höhepunkt. Zusammenfassend lässt sich festhalten, dass die aktuelle Episode von Monday Night Raw primär durch ihre erzählerischen Elemente und die Fortschreibung bestehender Fehden charakterisiert war. Während einige Matchankündigungen für das kommende Pay-per-View unterschiedliche Einschätzungen hervorrufen könnten, bot die Sendung insgesamt eine nachvollziehbare Entwicklung der zentralen Handlungsstränge. |
19 | 02.05.2025 | Blackjackspade | 8.0 | I thought this was a good episode that mainly focused on the story aspect which is fire because Backlash is coming up. I really enjoyed how the Rollins & Sami stuff went down and it felt like the ending of the show was the true heel true for Rollins because of how he could betray one of he's best friends like that. The women's matches were solid and I like Giulia, Roxanne & Stephanie are being featured on RAW quite a lot. I'm not thrilled about Jey Vs Logan but I get why they are doing it because Logan is someone the fans will always boo and would be a good first challenger for Jey and make him look good. Overall pretty enjoyable episode of RAW. |

27 | 01.05.2025 | Sky227 | 9.0 | I really enjoyed this episode. Sami decision story being told through the show. Roxanne received some good showing vs Rhea by having control of the match. I hope they start explaining why Roxanne & Giulia are suddenly teaming. New Day on commentary were hilarious. Since her stuff with Dakota & Lyra earlier this year, Ivy is growing on me (nice sell of THE Vaquer move). Sadly she has similar problems as Zoey Stark, she is fine in ring but lacks personality. I prefer not to speak about Jey vs Logan & Gunther vs Pat. Finally woman got an in-ring promo segment thanks to Becky's standing. They included the Bayley stuff into the story + Lyra stood her ground although she still seems too naive & her delivery felt like she was reading the promo from her memory. |

38 | 01.05.2025 | ReverseFlash2002 | 8.0 | This episode of RAW wasn't as good as last weeks show but this show was still pretty fun. I loved the story throughout the night with Rollins & Sami and I felt like they did a great job with making this new faction feel important and at the end of the episode I feel like they made Rollins a ruthless heel again who would have one of he's best friends beat up like that. The 2 women's matches were good match and I enjoyed them. The main event match was also a really good match. But overall it did lack some excitement going into Backlash. Jey Vs Logan and Gunther Vs Pat does not sound exciting at all in my opinion. I did enjoy Becky & Lyra's segment and I'm glad they are given the women's IC a story. Overall a fun episode of RAW. |

41 | 30.04.2025 | SavageDylanHRDZ | | To summarize in a couple of words: It wasn't special. At all. There were some fun spots and segments in this week's RAW such as the Zayn-Rollins angle and the subsequent match that basically said 'Bron is an asskicking machine, ' though I noticed that the crowd cheered for the heels than the face. As for the matches? Meh. That's it: Just meh. It wasn't anything else other than filler--the Rhea-Roxanne match was among the best in the card alongside Breakker's massacre on Sami, though I wish that they would stop with the DQ finishes and go clean the next time. But knowing WWE, I doubt that'll happen at all. The McAfee promo on Gunther was a bore and I was spending reading the news on my phone than watching it, and judging by how it looks, it seems that we're going to see a Pat-Gunther feud that will end with the latter losing AGAIN. Great, just great! Just give Gunther a chance to shine and prove that he is the ring-machine! Not an oversized jobber, for crying out loud! The Gable-Penta angle was nice, but nothing special. Overall: It was average, there were shades of entertainment and other of boredom, and it mostly focused on Seth's new stable, but yeah... it wasn't anything special at all: 6/10. |

44 | 30.04.2025 | crs285 | 7.0 | More the standard episode of RAW after last weeks top tier episode. The Seth/Sami/Breakker story was fun throughout the show. Thought all the matches were at least solid with Zayn and Breakker being the best. Also after a great segment between Gunther and McAfee excited to see where it goes. |

49 | 30.04.2025 | ISimon1912 | 7.0 | RAW completely ok, without any big lows and no big highs. In terms of wrestling, it was a mediocre night with a slight emphasis on both female matches, a shame that Rhea vs. Rox ended up in DQ, by the way this alliance between Giulia and Roxanne seems pretty pointless to me, given that they were both feuding until a few months ago and it seems like Giulia is fulfilling the role that Cora Jade would be playing, in terms of segment what stood out the most was the confirmation of the match between Lyra and Becky for Backlash. Speaking of the PPV, the worst parts of the night came from the other marches to the show, Gunther vs. McAfee scares me thinking about Gunther losing again and Logan vs. Jey will be sad just to watch (they managed to make me root against both of them) |

Penta and Gable's exchange and build for their rivalry was nice, the Lucha bros mention was cool to see. Awesome seeing JD back in action. Bron vs Sami in the Main event was good. Seth hitting the stomp at the end was a really good closing image. |

This year may take the crown with style though. Pat and Gunther, so begins the cool off and eventual burial. A passable promo from Pat but the premise is flawed from the get go. Lyra vs Becky was something and it's obvious that they are trying to get some personality going for Lyra which I'm happy about. The Rollins group is on a slow burn and we are waiting for the explosion. Just a middling episode really. 6/10 |
82 | 29.04.2025 | cardscheduletochange | 9.0 | |
83 | 29.04.2025 | BorrisCortes | 8.0 | Another very good RAW. The promo between Rollins and Zayn was very cool. Zayn comparing Rollins' clan with the Bloodline is good and Rollins asking Zayn to leave for the sake of his career is great too. The match between Rhea and Perez is very good. Perez had some good offense against the eradicator. The dq is a little disappointing. I don't really see where this story is going between IYO/RHEA/Giulia/Perez. The tag team match is okay but nothing special. War Raiders win to get them going again. The promo between Jey and Paul is okay but nothing special. Honestly it's no surprise to see Logan Paul for the world title. The guy is very good in the ring and is the perfect man to strengthen Jey Uso's fan base. I hope this rivalry doesn't last too long. The backstage segment between Heyman and Zayn is very good. Rollins offering Sami a championship match if he goes to smackdown is great as a way to get Sami to leave. Now the Becky and Lyra promo. Great stuff. Becky is excellent in breaking the fourth wall regarding Bayley but also in criticising Lyra's direction. Her acting is wonderful and her speech makes sense. Lyra, for her first main roster promo, made a strong impression (despite the 'WHAT? ' chants from those morons who pay top dollar for tickets to bust balls). Valkyria v Becky is the match I'm most looking forward to at Backlash. The match between Vaquer and Nile is nice. I hope Vaquer makes it into the main roster very soon. Now for the shit of the evening. Pat McAfee challenging Gunther at Backlash. WWE are you serious? There are wrestlers who work all year to get a place in the PLE and you put a commentator? I don't know, put in a Rusev or even a Tozawa, they're wrestlers. So Karrion Kross is right: WWE likes viral moments. Poor Gunther. I hope it's a squash or even better that this match is cancelled. The second promo between Rollins and Zayn is very cool again with Rollins persuading Sami and Sami staying fair and not wanting to be favoured. Breakker/Zayn is very cool with a crazy ending. Breakker never stops being a monster. Rollins finishing the job is perfect. The monday night messiah era continues. Despite the Pat McAfee segment, RAW is still good quality with only two average RAWs this year. Keep up the good work. |

85 | 29.04.2025 | TheV2 | 7.0 | Despite my disappointment with the Gunther/McAfee stuff, I was mostly entertained. Stephanie Vaquer vs Ivy Nile was my surprising highlight. The War Raiders vs The Judgement Day was better than expected and JD was great in this one. I'm glad they're keeping the unsurprising Jey Uso vs Logan Paul match for Backlash plain and simple, just getting it out the way. Becky's confrontation with Lyra was alright. I just hate that she instantly turns into a regular heel, whereas I love that Seth Rollins has such a organic character transition, not even a new character. The focal point of the episode was to introduce the new group. It was alright. I'm just tired of this over-dramatization. I hope that getting threatened with...uh, a wrestling match, is just an exception. |

88 | 29.04.2025 | shrimpscythe | | Really enjoyed some of this, the highlights for me were Perez vs. Ripley, Vaquer vs. Nile, and Breakker vs. Zayne. Ripley and Perez delivered like crazy and made Perez look like an absolute star holding her own against Ripley. I think this run might be really cool for Rhea and could defy the one-note wrestler allegations. Vaquer vs. Nile was extremely entertaining, I loved seeing the Devil's Kiss get countered even if it is being implemented a little excessively. I also love a clean win for Vaquer without American Made interference. I feel pretty invested in the Rollins/Heyman/Breakker faction and find myself looking forward to see where this goes in the wake of Zayne getting destroyed. Also loved the Lucha Bros mention from Penta! Unfortunately, many things took the wind out of my sails this week as we are being subjected not only to McAfee vs. Gunther at Backlash but also Jey Uso vs. Logan Paul. I don't feel any more sold on Jey as a world champion, and I don't think he will be able to carry Paul like Styles could. I couldn't be less enthusiastic about the celebrity-driven direction on the rise in the wake of Travismania and it really detracts from the product. |
89 | 29.04.2025 | Heartbreakkid2003 | 5.0 | After the Surprisely good show last week decided to stick around and watch this week and wasn't impressed. Really enjoyed basically all the stuff involving the women's division I thought it was the highlights of the show. The Sami and the Heyman alliance stuff was pretty well done but flawed in some ways. Crowd refusing to boo the new heel faction and Seth is still acting like the exact same guy he was before mania. Wasting Gunther on a match against a fucking commentator left a really bad taste in my mouth. Doing a jey uso and Logan Paul feud for backlash is fucking awful as well. Overall a good show if you just watch the women and ignore the rest lol. |
