[parkmania]

Face Edge vs Miz.

[Skippord]

[KingofOldSchool]

Here comes The Jiz.

[Aguakate]

[KingofOldSchool]

Zit popper!

[parkmania]

Miz and Edge ARE nothing alike - Edge has talent!

[Shadow]

I...LOVE EDGE!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Cole is not a visionary. He is a MIZionary!!!!

[ClockShot]

Edge brought his A game today.

[RP]

I'm glad Edge is back on the juice. Those tight T's needed to be filled out.

[RawRocks]

Edge = Gold

[KingofOldSchool]

He only tapped out to Blandiel because he was bored to death.

[Aguakate]

...Nice, Edge has his best show in WEEKS, and it's his LAST Raw.

[Skippord]

He only tapped out to Blandiel because he was bored to death.
seriously that needs work

[Lara Emily]

so The Miz taps out and gets to take out Edge, but Daniel Bryan wins and gets to be squashed

[Lara Emily]

So Tarver's out?

And Nexus is gonna break apart soon lol.

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL Otunga in a WWE Title match?

That'll put butts in the seats!

[RatedGSuperstar]

I love Otunga's shitty plans. He gets so giddy about them.

[ClockShot]

That Jericho DVD set looks pretty solid.

[KingofOldSchool]

so The Miz taps out and gets to take out Edge, but Daniel Bryan wins and gets to be squashed

Miz has MITB, Bryan has the U.S. Belt.

MITB > US Title

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>There is nothing about this show I haven't liked.</font>

[Lara Emily]

Miz has MITB, Bryan has the U.S. Belt.

MITB > US Title

Yeah fair enough. Still really weird

[RawRocks]

<font color=goldenrod>There is nothing about this show I haven't liked.</font>

including burying the Divas in 40 seconds :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[SOCCER LEGS]

best raw in recent memory

[ClockShot]

A Super house show in my area in a couple weeks. Whatever.

[Skippord]

another one?

fuck

[parkmania]

2 divas matches?!?!? Really?!?!?!?

[RawRocks]

including burying the Divas in 40 seconds :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

spoke to too soon :nono::nono::nono::nono::nono::nono::nono::nono:

[SOCCER LEGS]

...until this crap

[KingofOldSchool]

It's the Bella Whores

[parkmania]

They gave LayCool mics???? Shoot me now.

[KingofOldSchool]

Yay LayCool!

[RatedGSuperstar]

I was going to bitch about two divas matches, then Layla came out.

[ClockShot]

Where's the Beautiful People?

[Lara Emily]

Makes me sad if this is the best Raw in ages. It's my first in ages and it's kinda mediocre

[parkmania]

Nattie to come back down and beat LayCool up while the mics are open? Please?

[Shadow]

They're...providing they're own...commentary?

[Poit]

What the hell?

[ClockShot]

They're mic'd during the match?!

No no no no no no no.

[SOCCER LEGS]

:rofl: this is fucking awful but hilarious at the same time

[Skippord]

the Interracial Beautiful People lose

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Fuck you King! You used to commentate while wrestling at the exact same time.

[Aguakate]

...This is a HORRIBLE IDEA, having Layla mike'd up with that annoying voice of hers.

And Michelle McCool is SO lucky to be Mrs Taker.

[KingofOldSchool]

WHAT?!

[RawRocks]

Dear WWE, please get rid of LayCool and the mics

[RatedGSuperstar]

"GET OFF MY FRIEND!"

[parkmania]

Honestly, who throws a shoe? (two nights in a row)

[Shadow]

Oh wow....they're setting up Knoxville for this?

AWESOME!

[Aguakate]

...OH...MY...GOD...

...the giant hand...

[dronepool]

Pantyshot?

[owenbrown]

don't EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR give LayCool mic packs AGAIN!

[RatedGSuperstar]

That hand almost slapped her out of her top. Won't complain.

[KIRA]

sidenotes:Miz's dick must taste like gumdrops and sugar sticks for Cole to be sucking it this hard.


Laycool: you are NOT TBP and you never will be stop talking.

[bigslimjj]

Sooooo that's why there is so many foot thick mats on the ground. Multiple hand jobs backstage.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>CM Punk is the guy traded to Raw for Edge and he wins the battle royal.</font>

:shifty:

[KingofOldSchool]

That hand almost slapped her out of her top. Won't complain.

She has plenty of nudes out there, go find them.

[Shadow]

I would still wreck Layla up something fierce but I'd put a ball gag in her mouth first. British accents are hot and all but her's just annoys me.

[KingofOldSchool]

<font color=goldenrod>CM Punk is the guy traded to Raw for Edge and he wins the battle royal.</font>

:shifty:

I wish, but he would just end up jobbing to Primo.

[KingofOldSchool]

Knoxville needs an RKO, I concur.

[ClockShot]

I hate Ted's new theme.

[Skippord]

lol I love this music

[Skippord]

I autotuned that song

[KingofOldSchool]

His new music sounds like a cross between Pink Floyd and Linkin Park, burn it with fire.

[parkmania]

Goldust??!?

[KingofOldSchool]

YES!

[owenbrown]

It's Goldust

[RawRocks]

Goldust!

[Skippord]

:heart: Goldust

[ClockShot]

Interesting turn of events.

[Aguakate]

...YES! I was hoping this would be Goldust!

Reminds me of when he was stalking Razor Ramon back in the day.

[Poit]

Million Dollar Belt feud?

[Shadow]

Oh good...Golddust..............wait.

He wants the Million Dollar Belt

[dronepool]

<3 Goldust

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Goldust is getting a push?

Best Raw ever</font>

[KingofOldSchool]

Maryse is corpsing...SEND FOR THE MAN!

[KIRA]

FINALLY HE GETS AN ANGLE:y:

[Lara Emily]

really Goldust?

[Aguakate]

...Hahaha Goldust making sweet love to the Million Dollar Belt...he is SO underappreciated.

[bigslimjj]

Mark out for Goldust! I swear to god I called it right before he came out. No foolies. I'm enjoying raw...holy shit.

[parkmania]

Goldust??!?

For the record, I got that in BEFORE he was revealed. Saw the yellow light and called it.

[Xero]

THAT is how you use Goldust.

[RatedGSuperstar]

lol, how did Primo get into the battle royal? Does Raw really not have 20 other guys?

[Innovator]

I'm calling Regal for the upset, 1000-1

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Either Santino or Darren Young will be the standard "eliminated within 10 seconds of the battle royal beginning" guy</font>

[Aguakate]

THAT is how you use Goldust.

Yes.

They had it right back in '95...took 'em 15 years to get it right again.

[KingofOldSchool]

Yes.

They had it right back in '95...took 'em 15 years to get it right again.

Nevermind the fact he's been in and out of the company so many times over the years...

[RawRocks]

it should be Cena and Darren Young at the end :lol:

[Skippord]

Either Santino or Darren Young will be the standard "eliminated within 10 seconds of the battle royal beginning" guy
Primo

[RatedGSuperstar]

This battle royal is like that SVR storyline where you faced the battle royal with Lita and Trevor Murdoch.

[KingofOldSchool]

Get a photo made with Nickelback?

Only if the photo is by their graves.

[parkmania]

Get a photo made with Nickelback?

Only if the photo is by their graves.

I'd still rather Nickleback than Green Day.

[Skippord]

John Cena really seems like the nicest man ever

[Shadow]

Say what you will about the WWE, they do a lot for Make A Wish and the troops and you cannot ever deny them that.

[Aguakate]

...THAT'S why John Cena is the most popular guy, gets pushed so much by WWE, and is the face of the company...RIGHT THERE...those kids are sick, some of them terminally ill, and he takes his time for them.

If the young lady saying thank u to the WWE and Cena doesn't get to u, nothing does.

[Johnny Vegas]

The Make-A-Wish stuff is exactly how i don't get how people "hate" John Cena. The character he has, fine. But if anyone HATES Cena other than that...you fucking suck dick.

[Skippord]

so Edge was traded for a player to be named later?

[Skippord]

Otunga is secretly in love with Cena

[RawRocks]

The Make-A-Wish stuff is exactly how i don't get how people "hate" John Cena. The character he has, fine. But if anyone HATES Cena other than that...you fucking suck dick.

well said :y::y::y:

[KingofOldSchool]

Otunga and Cena bromance.

[ClockShot]

so Edge was traded for a player to be named later?

That or they grabbed someone off waivers.

[SOCCER LEGS]

i think otunga could really get over if they portrayed him as a dude who means well in his actions but always manages to screw everything up

[Innovator]

Cena's in the doghouse, has to shares scenes with Otunga

[owenbrown]

9:40 PM Central time and no sign of the WWE Champion

[SOCCER LEGS]

so Edge was traded for a player to be named later?

probably a new computer

[KingofOldSchool]

SloMo JoMo

[parkmania]

Does Edge do like he did a couple years ago to get into the Elimination Chamber?

[KingofOldSchool]

SANTINO!

[Shadow]

Wait what...no Nexus music?

[Lara Emily]

;p; they cut entrances because they needed to give time for all 20 battle royal entrance.

[parkmania]

I traded you to Smackdown in exchange for an external hard drive.

[SOCCER LEGS]

cena put on the black shirt you dickhead

[ClockShot]

Cena gotta be a team player. Just put the shirt on, dude.

[KingofOldSchool]

Cena still isn't one.

[parkmania]

last two left are gonna be Cena and Barrett, and Cena's gonna have another "What do I do?" moment.

[bigslimjj]

so Edge was traded for a player to be named later?Yea...Wuzupwitdat?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Love how they always stagger the battle royal entrances so that the Darren Youngs and Primos of the world come out during the break so you don't have to hear the silence.</font>

[VSG]

Edge's replacement might make it to the battle royal, if not win it.

[Aguakate]

...It'll probably come down to John Cena and NeXus all left in the ring at the end...

[RawRocks]

Fucking Server Error

[KingofOldSchool]

Ha Bourne is eliminated first.

[bigslimjj]

Lil Evan Bourne eliminated quick by the Fiery red hand.

[VSG]

LOL Evan Bourne.

[KingofOldSchool]

Shut up Lawler, Henry always gets eliminated from Battle Royals.

[SOCCER LEGS]

god this is the most interested i've been in RAW in a loooong time

[RawRocks]

:lol: Cena eliminates Otunga

[SOCCER LEGS]

that was a pretty dick move by cena, otunga was being a genuine nice guy to him.

[Shadow]

Can't get fired for doing that to Otunga. Just in trouble with your "teammates"

[VSG]

Darren Young :eek:

Damn he is relegated to Yoshi Tatsu status now.

[SOCCER LEGS]

lol darren young out of nowhere

[parkmania]

Maybe they HAVEN'T been prepping the South Beach Boys for a call-up.

[Skippord]

it would be pretty awesome if Darren Young won

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Kidd lasting way longer than Smith. They are breaking up soon.</font>

[bigslimjj]

Barrett's winning this. Then Orton will be like "You interfere in my match Cena and blah blah blah".

[KingofOldSchool]

Slater vs. Sheamus, ginger on ginger crime.

[Aguakate]

...This Cena in NeXus angle is a copy of HBK joining JBL...doesn't WANT to be in the situation he's in, but he HAS to do what he's told, or he's fired.

[Shadow]

Miz is not awesome

[KingofOldSchool]

YES! Morrison one-ups Miz.

He's now only down to him 392-2.

[bigslimjj]

Morrison just almost died eliminating The Miz. He barely caught the ropes.lol

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

get the krunk out of the ring truth!!!

[RawRocks]

Morrison lasting a lot longer than I thought

[Shadow]

Never thought I'd see this. Morrison in the final 4.

I LOVE IT!

[KingofOldSchool]

Sheamus is Cena's pale kryptonite.

[Aguakate]

...Hahaha Morrison eliminated himself. Nice going, J-Mo.

[parkmania]

Tactical error by Morrison.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Parcoure your ass on outta here jomo!

[VSG]

Why is everything that Sheamus does, now an Irish move?

[RawRocks]

Cena and Barrett in the end

[ClockShot]

Just walk over the top rope..........

[SOCCER LEGS]

hit the road cena

[Shadow]

Welp never mind this was interesting but hey....good story throughout the battle royal.

[Aguakate]

...WWE is messing this up, man...should've made Cena a full-fledged heel and gotten it over with...would've made a HUGE impact.

[Xero]

Fingerpoint of Doom!

[SOCCER LEGS]

...WWE is messing this up, man...should've made Cena a full-fledged heel and gotten it over with...would've made a HUGE impact.

it takes time man. can't go from a make a wish granting loverboy to an all out killer in one night

[KingofOldSchool]

RKO!

[Juan]

Pretty fun Raw

[VSG]

Fingerpoint of Doom!

Best post in here, lads. It was a great Raw, despite the ill-timed ads.

[Aguakate]

it takes time man. can't go from a make a wish granting loverboy to an all out killer in one night

Heck yeah...if you drag it out, when it finally happens, it won't have the same impact...u've seen all the reaction THIS has gotten, and he never even turned heel, he was just forced to join NeXus...kids crying, people shocked, etc...this RAW had a whole different feel to it because of that alone...if they would've done the heel turn, UFF...would've been CRAZY.

[wwe2222]

thats the most ive been interested in Raw since HBK was in some sort of title match.

[RawRocks]

one of the best Raw shows minus LayCool and the mics..

[Savio]

Why did WWE make a Nexus Shirt if Tarver was just kicked out? http://www.wweshop.com/item/nexus-basics-t-shirt/Featured6/01-12390

[Snowden]

They booked that show brilliantly. Best Raw in AGES.

[Juan]

Why did WWE make a Nexus Shirt if Tarver was just kicked out? http://www.wweshop.com/item/nexus-basics-t-shirt/Featured6/01-12390

They probably figured only 5 people were gonna buy that shirt anyway.

[bigslimjj]

Fingerpoint of Doom!This was the battle royal eqiuvalent of the Poke o' doom indeed.

[parkmania]

Why did WWE make a Nexus Shirt if Tarver was just kicked out? http://www.wweshop.com/item/nexus-basics-t-shirt/Featured6/01-12390

Because they designed it a month ago?

[Aguakate]

Why did WWE make a Nexus Shirt if Tarver was just kicked out? http://www.wweshop.com/item/nexus-basics-t-shirt/Featured6/01-12390

...I don't get it...it's only $14.99 PLUS they kicked Tarver out...

...weird things happening.

[VSG]

That is such a better design.

[bigslimjj]

...I don't get it...it's only $14.99 PLUS they kicked Tarver out...

...weird things happening.

Purple N shirts

[SOCCER LEGS]

do you thing that skip sheffield has a future in the nexus?

[Aguakate]

...WWE is kicking people off NeXus left and right...

...First Bryan, then Young, then Tarver...

...As a matter of fact, apart from Summerslam, Daniel Bryan hasn't had any connection to NeXus...they didn't give continuity to "NeXus firing Bryan"...you'd think he would be standing tall against NeXus alongside Cena...

...but hey...continuity is overrated nowadays.

[Savio]

Because they designed it a month ago?They could still cancel it. Also it couldnt be to long since skip is not on it. Not really surprised though if the WWE does not think of Storylines months in advanced though.

seemed to me he got his revenge and showed them what was up.. don't see any reason for him to carry on the feud.

[Mr. C]

GOLDUST was the highlight of the night! That whole thing was brilliant, and I’m stoked. It’s great to see him actually get involved in a storyline.

I love Cenexus. The ending was perfect.

8/10

[CSL]

Only saw the main event and thought it was pretty bad storyline wise in a really obvious/boring kind of way :-\ I also watched Cena/Barrett from the PPV earlier and I don't think I've ever heard commentary on WWE TV as bad as what I heard during that match and the main event of tonight's RAW, don't know whether that's because I haven't been watching for however long or what so it stood out but my fucking god.

Maybe it was the commentary that killed the match. Can't believe how bad it was.

[VSG]

You need to see the whole of Raw to get the main event scene. Loads of Cena-Nexus promos happened.

[DLVH84]

<font color=goldenrod>Kidd lasting way longer than Smith. They are breaking up soon.</font>

I hope Harry starts wearing the Union Jack soon.

could you elaborate on why you felt it was so bad? i'll agree that the finish was a bit predictable, but there really isn't any other way they could go with it.

[Lock Jaw]

Aside from some of the Cena/Nexus bits, this was a pretty weak RAW.

I couldn't believe that we were actually getting "never give up" chants from the fans.

[DLVH84]

Aside from some of the Cena/Nexus bits, this was a pretty weak RAW.

I couldn't believe that we were actually getting "never give up" chants from the fans.

My best bet that it was chimed, just like the "Goldberg" chants.

[BizarroKing]

Predicting Cena will eventually snap, attack Barret and cost him his match, get fired by GLaDOS, and then sneak attack all the main eventers because, if he can't be the golden boy of WWE, NO ONE can!

[KingofOldSchool]

My best bet that it was chimed, just like the "Goldberg" chants.

Excepted they showed fans chanting it.

[Xero]

CGI.

[KingofOldSchool]

CGI.

Damn you Pixar!

[The Show Off]

What would be really good is if the show a progression week after week like...

Barrett wants Cena to beat people up Cena refuses to and is threatened to be fired so he beats people up to prevent from getting fired but Cena's not happy with what he's done...

to

Barrett wants Cena to beat people up he hesitates to beat them up but eventually does what Barrett says and doesn't like what he's done.

to

Barrett wants Cena to beat people up he does what Barrett says and beats them up but still isn't happy.

to

Barrett wants Cena to beat people up he does so and seems almost happy about it.

to

Cena cuts a promo saying he feels like a new man with Nexus. He knows what he's feeling is wrong but doesn't know if he can help it. Later that night Barrett asks him to beat someone up Cena refuses until Barrett threatens to get him fired. Cena goes out and takes someone completely out. He goes way to far and puts someone on the shelf for a long time. Raw ends with him over this obliterated opponent smiling.

to

Cena beats up enemies of Nexus without being prompted by Barrett cuts a promo where he says "If this is wrong I don't want to be right."

to

Cena beats up people that aren;t even enemies of Nexus.

to

Cena becomes a loose cannon that starts costing Nexus matches by his crazy attitude. Barrett tries to reign him in but Cena can't help but beat up everyone in sight and lay waste to the WWE.

to

Barrett releases Cena from his obligations with Nexus because he's too much of a liability due to his unstable attitude.

to

Cena does downright dispicable things to Raw's top babyface

[Juan]

If Cena ends up as a full-fledged heel out of this, I don't think it'll be because he "starts liking" being a heel.

I think once he starts doing more heelish things, against his will, people will start booing him more and he'll start saying that he agreed to join the Nexus because he's a man of his word and because wrestling is his life but now everyone has turned their back on him. Or something along those lines.

[Fignuts]

Glad Cena didn't just turn heel right away. The best storylines have a slow, methodical build up.

[Lara Emily]

Glad Cena didn't just turn heel right away. The best storylines have a slow, methodical build up.


I think a lot of people are just scared that the longer it takes for Cena to go heel the more likely it is that he just flat doesn't

[Savio]

Highly doubt Cena is turning heel

[Fox]

I think this angle with Nexus is the WWE's way of testing the waters for a Cena heel turn. Maybe see how far they can take him in that direction and how it affects sales and viewership.

[Volare]

Well, I would think RAW got a nice little jump in the ratings.

[Londoner]

Well, I would think RAW got a nice little jump in the ratings.

And don't forget, nexus shirt sales!

[parkmania]

And don't forget, nexus shirt sales!

Not sure Nexus shirt sales will actually spike until Cena actually puts one on. Which hopefully will be next week.

[Jura]

If you watched Cena earlier with Tarver and pretended Cena was actually a heel, he looked really good. More entertaining than he's been as a face.

[DLVH84]

Meanwhile at the Nexus, John Cena gets Wade Barrett a cup of coffee.

[Aguakate]

...I loved the fact Goldust was the one sending messages to Dibiase.

Reminded me of this:

fucking wow, that cole/edge/miz/riley segment was well........FUCKING AWESOME!

[Londoner]

brilliant ending!

[slik]

What a crazy RAW
