WWE Raw 12/15 featuring Road to Cena-Lesnar IV, THE BIG DOG, and fewer exploding tvs

[Emperor Smeat]

He’s back, and the WWE locker room has officially been put on notice. He, of course, being Roman Reigns, who made a big statement at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs … and Stairs by Spearing Big Show through a table and making a major announcement about his future plans. As the 2014 Superstar of the Year set his sights on the 2015 Royal Rumble Match — and The Grandest Stage of Them All thereafter — the fate of the No. 1 contendership to the WWE World Heavyweight Title was decided and the Divas division received a shocking shake-up.

[el bobbo]

Can't wait to have this on mute in the background while I work and listen to music.

[Lock Jaw]

I hope Tazz Dan appears live via satellite

[Volare]

And enter the Rumble.

[Corndad]

Hope Jericho actually wrestles tonight.

[tman220]

he won't

[Corndad]

The hell? Why would they have a Slammy's graphic up.

[tman220]

because he won last week

[Mercenary]

What the hell,,,Nice shirt Jericho

[Corndad]

Seemed out of place walking to the ring with it.

[el bobbo]

I'm already pissed at the commentators.

[Crimson]

Haha Heyman

[Corndad]

Heyman and Jericho should just promo the entire first hour.

[Tom Guycott]

$200!

[Tom Guycott]

Heyman and Jericho should just promo the entire first hour.

Much like I said last week, Heyman just needs to get his own show daily on the network. Jericho should get the same.

[tman220]

anyone want to guess when Sting returns?

[tman220]

rematch #1...

[Corndad]

"Turn Heel You Douche" LOL

[Mercenary]

shoot on punk?

[Crimson]

I guess Cena beats Brock at RR? Ughhh

[Emperor Smeat]

Wait hasn't Cena made matches in the past?

Think that's how the last Rollins vs Cena match happened before being official by the Anoymous GM.

[Tom Guycott]

"I always have an agenda"

[Corndad]

he won't

:roll:

[Crimson]

Does Brock return tonight to help out Heyman

[Helmsphere]

He Is.

[Volare]

Cage match :) yay

[Tom Guycott]

Prediction: Heyman gets a win because Fandango.

I was going to say Lesnar appears, but I don't see them burning an appeance until closer to the Rumble. Hope I'm wrong, though.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>lol @ there being absolutely no difference between the poll options</font>

[Lock Jaw]

Jericho vs Heyman in one of three matches with different names but identical rules.

[Tazz Dan]

There was meant to be a 'Fan-Dan-House' in that Fandango name bit, but he forgot. I just got a text apologising, but keep an ear out, there could be a Dan House or Tazz Dan reference later on :y:

[Mercenary]

the big red jobber?

[Emperor Smeat]

So I guess no real push for Big Red or Cena-Show is happening at some point soon.

[Lock Jaw]

"If you're looking for your salami, all you have to do is take it from my pants"

[Volare]

So I guess no real push for Big Red or Cena-Show is happening at some point soon.

But Brock Lesnar in 6 weeks!! lol

[Lock Jaw]

Ha ha! Get it? "Shocking ending"?

[Poit]

"A shocking ending" :nono:

[Tazz Dan]

Since Jericho is making us vote for him on the WWE App, I thought I'd re-share this, just because.

#votetazzdan

[tman220]

rematch #2...

[Tazz Dan]

Big E reminds me of Heisenberg on Red Bull

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: power of the sweat

[Tazz Dan]

I could see him Snapchatting the other New Day members while he's taking a shit.

[Mercenary]

alica face turn!

[Lock Jaw]

http://simpsonswiki.com/w/images/thumb/a/a7/Brother_Faith.png/250px-Brother_Faith.png

FEEL THE POWER! *Throttles Krusty*


Is all I think of whenever Big E starts talking now and says "Feel the power"

[Volare]

So the question is will this tag team match have 1/64th of awesomeness that Charlotte vs Banks had.

[Lock Jaw]

No WWE Paige.... at least she isn't going to job.....

[Volare]

Pimpin ain't easy Tyson!

[Volare]

Fox just slapped Natty's ass.

[Lock Jaw]

Alica and Natty didn't job!

[Tom Guycott]

So, is Fox a face again?

I think she actually has the record of turns over Big Show, and her career has been considerably shorter.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Kidd.

[Lock Jaw]

So, is Fox a face again?

I think she actually has the record of turns over Big Show, and her career has been considerably shorter.

She's been a face since Paige turned on her, and they had a "feud".

[Tazz Dan]

Fuck I love Jericho

[Tazz Dan]

I can't contain this any more.

[Tazz Dan]

Y2J on my screen is NEVER a bad thing.

[Tom Guycott]

I wouldn't know since I don't watch Total Divas. I imagine that "feud" fizzled out like the Bellas' one did.

Also, that Roman Reigns double R "logo" looks a lot like a Spider-Man one.

[Tazz Dan]

I want nothing more than for him to return and beat Lesnar for the title, and face Ziggler at Mania for the belt in a face vs face match.

[Tazz Dan]

Should I call him?

[Tazz Dan]

Or post his cell number and one of you guys can call him while he's doing this segment? ;)

[Tazz Dan]

He looks so hot tonight :drool:

[Volare]

Shades of Jericho, Rock, Stephanie, Booker T

[Corndad]

This would be a pretty awesome Mania Match.

[Tom Guycott]

"You're right, Jericho. I want to "crush" her..."

[dronepool]

classic Y2J

[Volare]

RYBACK RUSEV HELL YES

[Tom Guycott]

Oh, Ryback! They actually are going with a new opponent!

[Emperor Smeat]

This would be a pretty awesome Mania Match.

Yeup as long as the WWE is careful on how they stretch out this feud.

[#1-norm-fan]

"Maybe we should explain some of the differences between these matches but... vote now!"

[Tom Guycott]

They can't explain the difference, because the point is interferrence is legal in all 3.

[Mercenary]

Demoliti.....oh wait.........

[Corndad]

Ascension!

[Tom Guycott]

Legion of Demolition.

[el bobbo]

wtf was that Ascension promo?

[el bobbo]

LOOK AT HOW MUCH FUN THE NEW DAY IS HAVING?

[PullMyFinger]

I can't breathe.

[Lock Jaw]

NUDE DAY

[Tazz Dan]

How long before the New Day become the new RTC?

[Tom Guycott]

This stable needs more Black Pope.

[Tazz Dan]

I don't like the Goldust/Stardust entrance theme mash up.

[Mercenary]

Demolition StarDust Ax!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The Ascension as an 80s-esque power and paint team seems weird to me, but I'm eager to see how it comes across in the ring.</font>

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Stardust with the Demolition Ax Colors.

[Tazz Dan]

If they had Shelton Benjamin and The Pope join New Day, it would be perfect :y:

[Corndad]

How long before the New Day become the new RTC?

They are right on schedule to Main Event every Superstars by the end of January.

[Tazz Dan]

And I don't really like Shelton all that much.

[Lock Jaw]

Not a fan of Ascension's eye ankhs. Everything else is great.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Let's go Ascension YAH YAH YAH!

[Tom Guycott]

"I'm fantastically well, sir"

Sounds like somebody has been revisiting Outkast recently.

[Emperor Smeat]

So the New Day are like the face version of Bo Dallas?

Both are motivational type gimmicks but while New Day is about happy motivation, Bo is more about delusional motivation.

[Tazz Dan]

<font color=goldenrod>The Ascension as an 80s-esque power and paint team seems weird to me, but I'm eager to see how it comes across in the ring.</font>

I like it. Tag Teams from the 80's - early 90's were great. Road Warriors, Hart Foundation, Demolition, The Rockers, Powers of Pain etc. I'd love to see some old school style of Tag Teams, I think it would help the division.

[Tom Guycott]

If they had Shelton Benjamin and The Pope join New Day, it would be perfect :y:

Only if they ditch the uniform powder blue and color code themselves like a senshi team.

Also, since WWE dropped the boat with 3MB, New Day could be the guys who ressurect The Freebird Rule.

[Volare]

Ascension should show up and beat the dog shit out of Miz and Mizdow for the titles their first night to make a statement.

[Tazz Dan]

[Lock Jaw]

Both are motivational type gimmicks but while New Day is about happy motivation, Bo is more about delusional motivation.

Don't know how long Bo is out for.... but Bo trying to join the New Day, and trying to subvert it to Bolieve-inism, would be a pretty choice angle.

[Lock Jaw]

Usos should never have lost the tag titles, and kept them to drop to The Ascension now. Makes it even bigger if they defeat such long reigning champions.

[KIRA]

I'm still hoping New day is an elaborate con

Kofi is pretty quick on commentary

lAlso dear Alicia won!!!!!!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>King's been mostly silent in this match since his comment about Big E's sweating. "I've always wanted a sweater for Christmas but I just got a maoner and a screamer"</font>

[Tom Guycott]

I like it. Tag Teams from the 80's - early 90's were great. Road Warriors, Hart Foundation, Demolition, The Rockers, Powers of Pain etc. I'd love to see some old school style of Tag Teams, I think it would help the division.

Also, managers. Needs to be more old-school style managers.

I still say Miz would be awesome in this role, no pun intended., and he could make a considerably longer career out of it.

And his first "aquisition" could be fellow thespians; the Vaudevillans

[Volare]

And there's a punk chant.

[Tazz Dan]

Don't know how long Bo is out for.... but Bo trying to join the New Day, and trying to subvert it to Bolieve-inism, would be a pretty choice angle.

Bo trying to join and be part of the team reminds me of this.

NXT! NXT! NXT! lmfao!!

[Poit]

NXT chant :y:

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

NXT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Volare]

They should start chanting everyone's names....Zayn, Neville, Owens etc etc.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>NXT > Raw</font>

[Volare]

So far by about 100 miles.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Honor Roll.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The way I see it, NXT costs me $2.50 a week to watch. Everything else on the Network is a bonus.</font>

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

TOPE!

[Volare]

Midnight Hour...good name!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

BROCK FAN!

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Kofi spazzing out

Huh so that move actually has a name now, Midnight Hour.

Bunny is taking a chokeslam.

[Lock Jaw]

That is Jimmy Jacobs....

[Lock Jaw]

IS KANE GOING TO ACTUALLY WIN A MATCH?!!

[Volare]

Was that Heyman in the bunny suit?

[Mercenary]

maybe we see who the bunny is
I bet we dont though and they strech this out past the rumble so the bunny gets a rumble spot

[Tom Guycott]

That is Jimmy Jacobs....

[Volare]

Yay I called it.

[Volare]

And Bonus!!

[Mercenary]

Kane killed the bunny!

Kill the wabbit

OH SHIT.

[Tom Guycott]

Yay! I was wrong!

[dronepool]

BROCK

[Lock Jaw]

He misplaced the title it seems

[Droford]

New shirt

[Droford]

He misplaced the title it seems

It says hes the champ on his shirt.. He doesn't need it

[Lock Jaw]

#BrocksFreakyEars

[Volare]

Hell of a counter to the Codebreaker.

[Volare]

Ummmmm.....pin him?

[Corndad]

Brock just got paid more for that then most of us do in a year.

[Emperor Smeat]

Only thing that was missing was the complementary suplex.

[Tom Guycott]

Seriously? Lesnar has a t-shirt that states he's the active champion?

I don't think I've ever seen that before on anyone's shirts ever.

[Volare]

TD next time you get the chance ask him how in the hell you protect yourself taking the F-5.

[Corndad]

ROOSSSSSA

[Tom Guycott]

Way to go, announce team- not pointing out Fandango was just mocking Jericho with his entrance to tak about Rouka's body.

[Dukelorange]

Someone make a pic of Jericho's face after Brock swatted the codebreaker.

[Emperor Smeat]

Seriously? Lesnar has a t-shirt that states he's the active champion?

I don't think I've ever seen that before on anyone's shirts ever.

Cena had one about the "champ is here" pointing to the belt although only made sense when he actually had a belt.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Hark to the tale of Lesnar, and the Paul he loves so dear.

They remain the best of friends for years and years and years.</font>

Less awkward promos and more of this is what Reigns needs if they really want his mega push to be ready by Mania.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

The Duck Face Assassin!

[Tom Guycott]

Look out, here comes the Spider-Maaaannnn

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

HE HAS A MIC! HE HAS A MIC!

[Lock Jaw]

Fans certainly showing no signs of turning on Reigns like the internet seems to have done

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

THANK GOD!

[KIRA]

Ha keeping Reigns from talking good move

I still like Roman I just feel like he's being shoved to a position he's clearly unprepared for, he needs a wider arsenal better and better mic skills.

[Lock Jaw]

Reigns gets the loudest lady-pop since Jeff Hardy and early face Randy Orton.

[Tom Guycott]

Cena had one about the "champ is here" pointing to the belt although only made sense when he actually had a belt.

I didn't count that, because I thought they were going for a double entendre.

[Poit]

Time for the annual ritual sacrifice of a big guy to build someone up before Wrestlemania.

[Tazz Dan]

TD next time you get the chance ask him how in the hell you protect yourself taking the F-5.

I'll txt him after Raw and post the reply in here for you :y:

[Lock Jaw]

Poit, who is better looking, Roman Reigns or Fandango?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

TD next time you get the chance ask him how in the hell you protect yourself taking the F-5.

Prayer.

[Tom Guycott]

Also, Cena said that all the time. Lesnar's actually specifies he is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

[Poit]

Poit, who is better looking, Roman Reigns or Fandango?

Fandango, easily.

[Lock Jaw]

Fandango, easily.

As I suspected..... those lady-pops should go to Fandango!

[KIRA]

MIZDOW!

[Poit]

I would not be surprised if straight women find Reigns more attractive than Fandango.

WWE might as well just run a scroll across the bottom of the screen that says "Roman Reigns is your new God. You are supposed to love him best now".

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Even though Reigns is the obvious winner, once the Rumble build begins in earnest I hope they at least build up a couple of other guys who look like they might have a shot. Hated it last year when the build was pretty much "Batista and 29 other superstars".</font>

[Tazz Dan]

Fandango, easily.

Who's better looking? Noid or Tazz Dan?

http://i1337.photobucket.com/albums/o678/tazzdan/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps0611c494.jpg

[Tazz Dan]

Also I agree. Fandango is hotter than Roman, but Roman is still sexy.

[KIRA]

ha ha Mizdow

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>When Miz goes home and climbs on top of Maryse, is Mizdow still there copying his every thrust?</font>

Noid looks a lot like one of my students I once had a crush on, so I don't feel like I can objectively answer this one.

[Lock Jaw]

Let's step it up a notch....

Fandango or Brad Maddox....

Remember when that would bust a guy open?

[Poit]

Let's step it up a notch....

Fandango or Brad Maddox....


Official RAW Thread and Official Poit Who's Hotter Thread

Definitely Brad Maddox. :y:

[Lock Jaw]

Why do people always go headfirst out the door... slide your ass out first... you can probably touch both your feet to the ground without even getting the rest of your body out.

[Emperor Smeat]

Good match so far and better than the cage match Cena had earlier in the year with Bray.

[Lock Jaw]

RAW ENDING IN A NO CONTEST?!!!

[Lock Jaw]

That match was good though. Worthy of an NXT show.

[Lock Jaw]

I like how when Cena takes the curbstomp, he is first raised upwards by the magnets on Rollins' boots.

[Lock Jaw]

Lesnar should come back out and destroy Rollins now

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Is Rollins a Paul Heyman guy?

[Droford]

Heyman will screw over Lesnar to help Rollins walk out as champion just like the last time he managed Lesnar as the Chsmpion.

[Emperor Smeat]

Not going to lie but thought the same as well with Rollins taking his sweet time to get out.

<font color=goldenrod>I quite enjoyed that main event. But yeah, poor Raw overall as per usual. Can't really see myself sitting through 2 more hours of WWE for Super SmackDown tomorrow.</font>

[Tom Guycott]

<font color=goldenrod>When Miz goes home and climbs on top of Maryse, is Mizdow still there copying his every thrust?</font>

That's dangerously close to Botched Spot comic territory right there, Mr. Cruz.

[VSG]

Maryse is the one probably on top tbh, so Mizdow just has to lay down on his back and grin.

[Lock Jaw]

Russia's economy is being crushed. Wonder what this will do with Lana and Rusev.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Heyman will screw over Lesnar to help Rollins walk out as champion just like the last time he managed Lesnar as the Chsmpion.

Only with your scenario, people would actually give a fuck, unlike Survivor Series 2002.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Then again the title match at Survivor Series '02 was easily overshadowed by Scott Steiner debuting and the Dudleys reuniting, which had been long overdue as they never should've been broken up in the first place.

[Tazz Dan]

To be fair, the PPV died between the Hardy/Nowinski promo, and HBK winning the WHC. Steiner barely saved that segment, it was a cool debut, but the crowd died again after it.

I'll forever blame that promo :'(
