WRESTLING RECAP: Playtime Williams breaks down WWE Raw from 06/15/15



(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - The Money in the Bank (MitB) Pay Per View (PPV) was yesterday, and now it is time to talk about the wins and loses, plus get story lines popping.  The next PPV with be Battleground in 5 weeks. This particular Monday's episode had many great moments to get people excited about the upcoming PPV.


Some things I still need to happen in the WWE Universe:

  1. Bring back the Cruiser Weight Division
  2. Make all the matches mean something to some sort of belt or rivalry.  
  3. Show more of the roster.  You guys recycle the same talent too much.
  4. You may wish to consider bringing the Diva's division full circle and have them with Tag Title belts, lightweight belts, etc. 
  5. The Tag Team Division is starting to look better than the singles division.  Get more people graduated from NXT and get that division showcased more. 

Here are the highlights of the show:

AirDate: Monday, June 15, 2015
