    This Wyatt thing to open the show is brilliant. I was sort of cold on this feud up until right now but this jumped it up to the number one match for me on the ppv card.

    Cena did a really good job too. No jokey jokes, just solid all around.

    So DGUSA just put the dark match main event from Wrestlemania Weekend on youtube. Bad Influence vs. The Bravado Brothers

    And only too late did I hear that on Backstage Pass, Santino was apparently talking about how concerned he was about Bray Wyatt's power over the children

    i am crushed i didn't get to hear that live

    Yeah that was pretty lackluster. Shame since the Bravado's did good work in Chikara.

    this Raw was great

    the crowd was kinda quiet but they just went through a severe storm with tornados so that's probably why

    Seeing a lot of negative reaction to this RAW elsewhere online, a lot of people seemed to hate it

    which is to say, a lot of people are wrong

    This is Sandow's new gimmick right? Please let this be Sandow's new gimmick.

    Putting The Shield's break-up on hold was such a good move.

    What do you mean on hold.

    I'm afraid I've got some BAD NEWS...

    Hey. Hey Hey Hey. Hey.

    I'm watching you.

    Judging by these crowd reactions, Lana needs to get the heck away from Rusev asap. I can hear so many crickets when he's in the ring that I can see Brodus Clay in the back getting excited about his new tag team partner.

    getting around to watching Raw


    holy fucking shit that opening segment

  • ReynoldsReynolds Gone Fishin'Registered User regular
    I'm totally down for watching some Nitro and more WCW PPVs on the Network.

    How many RAWs do they have up so far?

    Do squash matches ever really help people? Honest question, they always seem lose/lose to me.

    I, for one, enjoyed the Mako.

    They do help out monster heels pretty well, by showing off how strong they are.

    I am so confused by this Raw. Like, Magneto hijinks and 3MB actually winning makes me happy, but Kane doing the fucking terrible coming up through the mat spot infuriates me.

    Bryan being sloppy on the mic is a bummer too, but with all the shit he's been through, including this ridiculous feud, I'm willing to let it slide.

  • HjorvarthrHjorvarthr Registered User regular
    the last time Kane tried to drag somebody to hell was Zack Ryder

    when he couldn't change a tire and got pushed off the stage in a wheelchair

    Barrett is the best.

    Those are three words I've never uttered. I'm now a fan.

    How's it been ridiculous? Kane is still a credible challenger and they haven't done anything goofy like the Ryder stuff two years ago.

    I don't want every Raw to be like this, but if they decided to make every useless go home show a Chikara tribute I'd be fine with it.

    To each his own. Coming up under the ring is one of the least ridiculous things Kane has done IMO.

    Booking a show like this in St. Louis probably was a bad idea though. If you're gonna wing it and be nuts, do that in a city that's more accustomed to it.

    So Drake Younger is going to be a WWE ref after all and not a wrestler, at least for the time being. Guess his style finally caught up with him.

    Whatever he ends up doing; good luck to him. He's put his body through hell. I'm glad he's doing something less strenuous, at least for a while.

    I mean, I loved watching him in PWG, but even after giving up death matches he still continued to take crazy bumps.

    Beef Wellington was a ref in WWE and then he became the Rad Ox and got to wrestle at Wrestlemania so it's a decent career path for a hardcore wrestler.

    This TNA ref might have just become the patron god of Botchamania

    Sweet Zombie Jesus...he tried to cover for it but god damn

    *edit* Much bigger version so you can truly appreciate the power of the botch.

    Hey. Hey.

    He's the main event player.

    You know...you should never have a gimmick that can be burried entirely by somebody saying "no you're not."

    Rusev vs Cesaro or Swagger could be a chance for Lana to get over

    Heyman and Zeb are easy targets

    I had a thought the other day that they should put Cesaro and Mark Henry and Big Show and Big E and Roman Reigns and Luke Harper in a five minute or so hoss-athon...just big man spots back to back until Cesaro wins.

    ...and if you're wondering, yes Big Show is only in there so there can be a spot where he KO punches five dudes in a row except one of those dudes is Cesaro's manager Paul Heyman and then Big Show turns around and gets Superman punched into oblivion.

    If you're going to have a Hoss-athon you might as well throw Sheamus in there as well.

    I thought about it but I wasn't sure if he qualified for that level of hoss. I guess he could hit the Celtic cross on somebody and a Brogue Kick.

    Cesaro shouldn't be feuding with a monster heel at the moment. Cesaro should be on his way up. If they want Rusev to have credibility, he needs to sit on a few more dudes before moving up.

    Lana v Coulter would be pretty great though.

    Did you believe that Joe getting stuck in the right at TNA was the worse thing ever? Or Bubba causally moving to lay down on the table out side the ring?

    Well folks, TNA does it again.

    BEHOLD the best ref knockout EVER.
