10 Best Things The Internet Has Done With WWE Raw (Jan 18)

By Jack G King / January 20, 2016

Attitude Era aficionados will be particularly interested in the internet response to Raw this week. Not only did the show itself feature a war of wards between old foes Chris Jericho and Stephanie McMahon, Twitter saw Taka Michinoku and Sunny grab the social media spotlight. As per usual, the online wrestling community also couldn't help tearing apart WWE for every little mistake or perceived weakness. It goes with the territory around this time of year (who could forget the overwhelmingly negative response to both the 2014 and 2015 Royal Rumbles?), but this week's criticism took the cake - especially with even poor old WWEShop.com in the firing line. It only makes sense that, as we near the most highly-pressurised period of the WWE calendar, the internet's reaction to a disappointing Raw is particularly vitriolic. Everything matters a little more now. We'll suffer bad Raw after bad Raw, but don't you dare mess up WrestleMania...

10. I'd Genuinely Wear One Of Those

The smarks would wear it ironically, and the devoted Reigns fans would wear it to demonstrate their hero's awesome Royal Rumble fightin' skills. However, it's worth mentioning that WWE's decision to make Roman Reigns the number one entrant threatens to overshadow the Royal Rumble itself - even if he doesn't win, he'll surely be involved heavily from start to finish - and that's unquestionably a bad thing for the rest of the roster.
