Aside from the fact that Montez Ford was poisoned this week, one of the biggest news stories happens to be WWE's version of David Fincher's neo-noir masterpiece, Fight Club.

From a subjective standpoint, I was entertained with this idea, and the background music, as well as Shane McMahon's idea of making it appear like an exclusive club, was interesting and unusual, to say the least.

But from an objective standpoint, the production team's approach to making it look like a sleek and well-produced segment works against the gritty vibe that people get from an underground fight club.

Even though The Hurt Business lost all their WWE titles this week, the trio redeemed themselves by beating everyone at the end of this episode.

As a fan, I am quite glad that this happened. There is certainly room for improvement, but the very idea of RAW Underground sounds potentially exciting, and if done right, it'll certainly give WWE a new direction so that they can pull themselves away from this viewership slump.
