Offical RAW Thread for 06/28/10 - WHO WAS IN THE LIMO!?

[teamXtremist]

someone help

[teamXtremist]

nxt season 2 to the rescue

[Rev. Hallowell]

someone help

They can't. They'll be suspended.

[parkmania]

Yeah, Cena. Come help. Get yourself suspended so you can overcome those odds, too.

[TheFallenOneX]

WWE-Choking a guy BAD
Beating up senior citizens and 90 pound guys 6-1 style okay

[blak23]

ok en the seg already

[glanville6]

my computer is slow, so i apologize if its been said but lol at otunga and tarver teaming up on michael hayes. wonder if mark henry told them to do that. good segment though. great hear

[parkmania]

OK, this segment needs to be over NOW. We really DON'T need everyone to give Dragon their finisher.

[MVP]

This NXT angle is really stupid.

[teamXtremist]

otunga looks like a black ken doll

[RatedGSuperstar]

The best part about these NXT attacks is that they're not letting Cole ruin it on commentary.

[RawRocks]

God end this

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>MURDER LARIAT</font>

[teamXtremist]

jesus enough

[glanville6]

great heat, rather

[teamXtremist]

.450

[Rev. Hallowell]

For some reason I was expecting to hear this:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VoIcZX5BFcc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VoIcZX5BFcc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

[parkmania]

BTW, what the fuck is up with Otunga's hair helmet?

[rob11]

Sad to see the once great Philly crowd lose all it's smarkness.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Baby Bats might've killed Steamboat. That lariat is insane.

[Johnny Vegas]

perfect 450

[blak23]

i nlike how the 450 always end it

[TheFallenOneX]

is it me or is gabrial look scared everytime he goes for the 450

[ClockShot]

Wrap it up anytime, production truck.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Awesome heat.</font>

[VSG]

Gabriel is a ticking timebomb.

[teamXtremist]

Gabriel is a ticking timebomb.

he can go as a heel apparently

[Testicle]

Say what you want about Justin Gabriel, but that guy has more pressure on him than anyone in this entire biz, every single week he has to hit that move, and he does it.

[Evil Vito]

Say what you want about Justin Gabriel, but that guy has more pressure on him than anyone in this entire biz, every single week he has to hit that move, and he does it.

<font color=goldenrod>Exactly. Botching that move kills the entire segment.</font>

[teamXtremist]

predators looks sic

[Emperor Smeat]

The hesitation on the 450 is also a nice touch since it makes seem like Gabriel is thinking about whether or not to finish off the person. You could hear the others screaming for him to hit the person but he just stares there thinking before hitting the move.

[VSG]

he can go as a heel apparently

I meant he gets legit hurt after his finisher.

[teamXtremist]

I meant he gets legit hurt after his finisher.

gotcha

[nrt4]

I just wish they'd do something different than the same damn knock-out routine they've been doing since Viewers Choice.

[Providence Peep]

It's already been said, but I feel like that went on for a little too long.
I also feel like that was done just to kill time.

[teamXtremist]

i still think season1 of nxt should be the heels with season too the faces who eventually stop the madness

[blak23]

so they are the network

[parkmania]

Does Josh Matthews join Cole since King got beat down?

[Testicle]

I just wish they'd do something different than the same damn knock-out routine they've been doing since Viewers Choice.

No, thats what makes it special.

[Providence Peep]

I just wish they'd do something different than the same damn knock-out routine they've been doing since Viewers Choice.

Definitely!

[RawRocks]

It did go on for too long and I did not need to see those guys get squashed

[teamXtremist]

we love you ricky

[Providence Peep]

I smell a rat!
It's so obvious that Cole is the GM! Listen to him! It's like he wants to gloat!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I think I like the Nexus' theme now given where it starts. Good interruption music, at least.

*Promo being cut*
WE WALK ALONE, IN THE UNKNOWN

etc.</font>

[TheFallenOneX]

you would think a few of them would say FUCK IT we need to help

[blak23]

its kool that cole explains it

[DaVe]

lol

[Rev. Hallowell]

I like the fact that it took too long. Looks more like they took over the show rather than being just a segment.

[TheFallenOneX]

its kool that cole explains it

Yes it is a nice touch

[RawRocks]

He also looks like fucking tool explaining it

[McLegend]

I thought that beatdown was better then last week's.

[parkmania]

http://ayearofshakespeare.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/clarissa-explains-it-all.jpg?w=300&h=411

<s>Clarissa,</s> Cole explains it all

[Providence Peep]

I like the fact that it took too long. Looks more like they took over the show rather than being just a segment.

It looked that way the first time, and kind of the second, but I want to see them do something different now. I feel like it's already getting old.

[DaVe]

fkn maryse

[teamXtremist]

god gracious ass is bodacious

[ClockShot]

Yo, where's Ted Jr.?

[blak23]

maryse turns on fox

[TheFallenOneX]

Next week Nexus destroys the Divas

[RawRocks]

How do the fuck do we go from Nexus to Divas? Pathetic!

[Krimzon7]

First, I love the bad ass segments. I love how the the Internal Bleeding lariat looks. I love how Gabriel goes out and fucking NAILS the 450 every time. I didn't know he got legit hurt every time, but I love how he pops up and stares at his prey. God this group is awesome and OVER!

[Providence Peep]

Is it "The Nexus" or "Nexus"? Either way it's a dumb name.

[Rev. Hallowell]

Gail Kim...I'm tempted to cheat on Natalya

[Krimzon7]

It's gotten hot in hurr, NOW TAKE OFF ALL YO CLOTHES!

[nrt4]

It looked that way the first time, and kind of the second, but I want to see them do something different now. I feel like it's already getting old.

It's been the same order of the Nexus members doing there moves. I mean watching Gabriel do the 450 is already getting boring.

[teamXtremist]

Is it "The Nexus" or "Nexus"? Either way it's a dumb name.

i believe its just nexus

[teamXtremist]

other than the nxt segment this raw has been awful

[Rev. Hallowell]

If they can't beat down "Superstars", but crew members and announcers are fair game, wouldn't divas be as well?

[teamXtremist]

what does ddt stand for

[RatedGSuperstar]

Random thought: I really, really hope The Miz wins the Raw MITB.

[teamXtremist]

Random thought: I really, really hope The Miz wins the Raw MITB.

funny i actually thought about that the other day seems a great way to get him a title shot/win but i think he needs to drop that us title first

[blak23]

what does ddt stand for

drop dead twice

[Rev. Hallowell]

other than the nxt segment this raw has been awful

Yo Gabba Gabba's on Nick Jr. if you'd rather watch that...

[Providence Peep]

what does ddt stand for

Damien's Dinner Time.
For you younger fans, the DDT was Jake Roberts' finishing move and Damien was his pet snake.

[teamXtremist]

Yo Gabba Gabba's on Nick Jr. if you'd rather watch that...

how do u know lol

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I think Orton's definitely winning the Raw MITB. The RKO is a perfect move to build that contract around.</font>

[Rev. Hallowell]

how do u know lol

I have kids. I have to know what's on Nick Jr.

[Providence Peep]

What do you guys think of Josh Matthews on commentary?

[teamXtremist]

I have kids. I have to know what's on Nick Jr.

me to only reason i know what that show is rotfl

[blak23]

Damien's Dinner Time.
For you younger fans, the DDT was Jake Roberts' finishing move and Damien was his pet snake.

that was just jake's ddt's name the ddt stands for drop dead twice man

[Providence Peep]

Cole just called them "The Nexus." They need to decide what name to use and stick with it.

[teamXtremist]

drop dead twice

sweet

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Jesus, they are really strapped for content tonight.</font>

[Rev. Hallowell]

me to only reason i know what that show is rotfl

I turned it there for the joke, and after only a second I heard my daughter yell from upstairs "I wanna watch Yo Gabba Gabba!"

[parkmania]

I don't know which one my son prefers: Yo Gabba Gabba or Thomas the Tank Engine. He's goes nuts any time either one is on.

[teamXtremist]

I turned it there for the joke, and after only a second I heard my daughter yell from upstairs "I wanna watch Yo Gabba Gabba!"

yooooooooooooooooooooooo gabba gabba!!!

[Rev. Hallowell]

Good thing Dora's not on. I'd never get to watch Raw.

[teamXtremist]

mega match?!? mega man was the shit

[FearedSanctity]

that was just jake's ddt's name the ddt stands for drop dead twice man

The move was named by Jake "The Snake" Roberts, who accidentally invented the move in the 1980s.[1] Rumors abound as to what the letters DDT supposedly stood for, including Drop Dead Twice, Demonic Death Trap or Damien's Death Touch, Death Drop Technique and Damien's Dinner Time after Jake's pet python Damien. When asked what DDT meant, Jake once famously replied "The End."[citation needed] The abbreviation itself originally came from the chemical dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane, a notorious pesticide, as stated during shoot interviews and Jake's Pick Your Poison DVD. Many think the term DDT was applied because the chemical DDT is a hazardous chemical buried in the ground which potentially causes brain damage and defects. Similarly, the DDT maneuver buries an opponent's head into the mat, and is therefore (in kayfabe) hazardous to the brain and spinal cord.

So basically, nothing

[jerichoholicninja]

MMMMMEEEGGGGAAMATCH!!!

[parkmania]

The Mega-Powers Explode! in a Mega-Match

[Rev. Hallowell]

I wish Edgeward would say "To hell with PG" and do something R Rated.

[pira-girl]

theres a guy who knew when to walk away

What cha' say, please say it louder and louder again for the ones who needed and STILL need to do:wave::drool:

[teamXtremist]

i came to play

[parkmania]

Here comes the "Downfall" of WWE

[Providence Peep]

Did someone say McMahon is pissed with Jericho for doing the game show?

[teamXtremist]

thats right maryse stroke that belt

[blak23]

So basically, nothing

interesting

[teamXtremist]

and now the zoooooooooooo keeper

[ClockShot]

As much as I love the Legacy theme, Ted needs music. Either use his father's theme or give him something else to use.

[blak23]

so is survivor series a super mega match

[parkmania]

R-Truth's music got a remix! Good! Now I don't have to listen to him every time.

[Juan]

Did someone say McMahon is pissed with Jericho for doing the game show?

He's not pissed, they're just afraid he's gonna leave again because of the show.

[teamXtremist]

morrison is awesome

[Providence Peep]

How come Morrison and Bourne never get mic time?

[parkmania]

so is survivor series a super mega match

Nah, it's SuperMegaUltra.

[teamXtremist]

[Rev. Hallowell]

[Krimzon7]

Evan Bourne has a totally bad ass theme! We gotta love his chances??? LOL

[teamXtremist]

orton FTW!!

[ClockShot]

APEX PREDATORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

[teamXtremist]

he has evolved into the viper gotta love it

[Providence Peep]

What do you guys think of Josh Matthews on commentary?

[FearedSanctity]

NXT Season 2 guys run in to ruin main event plz

[teamXtremist]

What do you guys think of Josh Matthews on commentary?

honesty not bad didnt mind him back on heat

[Krimzon7]

DDT means the end. There's no concrete meaning for DDT so both of you numbnuts are right. Just wiki it!

[parkmania]

Is "Mega-Match" the new "Vintage"?

[parkmania]

Someone better do a spot off the ladder. You don't break out the furniture without the intention of using it.

[ClockShot]

So is Jericho done with Downfall duties? Or is he taking a plane back and forth every week?

[DaVe]

Wow, Bourne is tiny.

Look at those pencil-like legs.

[Johnny Vegas]

lol gotta love Jericho

[parkmania]

They supposedly shot 6 episodes already, and are waiting to see if ABC wants more.

[Krimzon7]

We'll go off the air with the Morrison Backflip oof the ring with the ladder.

[Emperor Smeat]

So is Jericho done with Downfall duties? Or is he taking a plane back and forth every week?

Downfall is a "live"/weekly taped show?

I thought it might be more like Survivor where they tape most of the episodes/season in advance and just play them in order.

[Rev. Hallowell]

Someone better do a spot off the ladder. You don't break out the furniture without the intention of using it.

I'm sure Jeffrey Nero Bourne will do something off the ladder in this match.

[parkmania]

Jericho said they taped 6 eps and will wait to see if ABC wants more.

[Providence Peep]

I think I'm confused. We're not gonna find out who was in the limo, right? Because Bret is gone?

[teamXtremist]

I think I'm confused. We're not gonna find out who was in the limo, right? Because Bret is gone?

its almost 10 i dont think theres enough time

[Evil Vito]

I think I'm confused. We're not gonna find out who was in the limo, right? Because Bret is gone?

<font color=goldenrod>It was probably the NXT guys...looking wayyyy too much into it</font>

[Johnny Vegas]

Yo, Randy Orton is like, mad over

[Providence Peep]

They threw Bret into the limo, beat him up, and now he's gone. Why?? I don't get it.

[ClockShot]

Any reason why the briefcase is in Nickelodeon colors this time around?

[ClockShot]

They threw Bret into the limo, beat him up, and now he's gone. Why?? I don't get it.

He's getting hitched.

[blak23]

They threw Bret into the limo, beat him up, and now he's gone. Why?? I don't get it.

vince was behind that

[Poit]

Any reason why the briefcase is in Nickelodeon colors this time around?

Red for the Raw MitB briefcase, I'd assume.

[ClockShot]

Jericho botched that codebreaker bigtime.

[Corndad]

Wow that was crazy.

[ClockShot]

:rofl:

[Rev. Hallowell]

Randy wins with the Diamond Cutter

[Poit]

That was... quick.

[blak23]

wow really

[Corndad]

Daniel F'n Bryan

[Krimzon7]

Did that finish make Orton look so strong, or the other 7 weak?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Orton almost seems like too obvious of a winner</font>

[Krimzon7]

That finishing pose damn near guarantees that he wont win it. He'll chase til the road to wrestlemania

[Providence Peep]

I think the ending of Raw means Orton won't be winning MITB.
You guys think it's time for the Miz to get the belt?

[DaVe]

Wow, seems like they legit had content problems for this RAW.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah, this was a pretty horrible Raw. Dunno what the deal was, but they clearly were strapped for time.

Hopefully a bounce-back can come next week. Maybe we'll finally see the Nexus wrestle.</font>

[Corndad]

Yea It seemed like they were just using this week to build next week's show. They showed the Legends beat down like six times. Using 8 of the talent in the main event maybe had something to do with lack of matches but still.

[parkmania]

8-man ME, 6 in the Legends beatdown, 6 in the Hart/Uso match, 4 in Divas tag team. Really, there were only a few people that were on the active Raw roster who didn't get airtime - the Bellas, Ezekiel, Goldust, Jillian, Primo, Yoshi, and Zack.

[Juan]

They'll probably be on Superstars

[Skippord]

ok I'm watching this now since I recorded it, but did R-Truth call himself the zookeeper?

I just want to be sure I heard that right that he called himself the zookeeper

[Skippord]

I'm kind of only watching this to see Rob Zombie

[Juan]

all 90 seconds of him

[Skippord]

disappointing

also did Michael Hayes gain six hundred pounds?

[Schlomey]

miserable episode. I couldn't even get interested in the chats.......wow it was horrid.

[rob11]

Glad I didn't waste money to go to this. Maybe next time they will give Philly something better, although it seems judging by the reaction to Cena that the classic Philly crowds no longer exist, or just go to something else like ROH.

Looks like you're right.
