Mick Foley on Why He?s Still Watching WWE RAW After Monday's Show

Posted: Dec 2nd 2015 By: Mick Foley

Yes, I was seriously contemplating taking WWE off of my viewing schedule.

At the end of last week?s post, I mentioned that I needed the company give me a reason to keep watching. Last night, they DID give me a few reasons. Here they are:

1) By allowing her to enter to her own music, and wear her "LegitBoss" shirt, I received my first indication that the company may allow Sasha Banks to spread her wings, and fly.

2) I REALLY liked Charlotte?s subtle heel mannerisms, and slightly condescending tone toward Becky Lynch. Becky is an amazing talent, just looking for some character direction ? and I think she may have found some of that last night.

3) I really thought that in the wake of last weeks disappointing ratings, that we would see a very Authority-heavy show. Remember Christopher Walken on Saturday Night Live ? when his prescription for everything was ?more cowbell?? That?s what I foresaw for last night?s WWE Raw ? with ?Authority? being the new cowbell. Instead, we saw the origin of a new faction, which could prove to be quite effective over time ? the birth of The League of Nations.
Was it a perfect show? No. But I found it to be an enjoyable one ? that didn?t make me feel penalized for being a wrestling fan. Sure, I want to see more Cesaro, Owens, etc ? but WWE gave me enough to keep me around?at least for a while.
