Announced for RAW is... Daniel Bryan vs. Dolph Ziggler!

[Volare]

Hide yo kids hide yo wife.

[Providence Peep]

Do any of you who ordered the pay-per-view last night regret ordering it? Do you ever watch a ppv and think, "That was a waste of money"?

Eh? I didn't buy it but just watched the replay and thought it was great.

[Gerard]

Anyone streaming raw tonight? :(

[Tazz Dan]

The PPV was worth the money for Bryan/Ziggler alone. It was one of the better ones for the year.

[Ultra Mantis]

Anyone streaming raw tonight? :(

There's usually several on justin.tv

[ClockShot]

Evening, folks.

[SOCCER LEGS]

that's a tiny arena they're in

[ClockShot]

Cena's in time-out.

[Emperor Smeat]

LOL crowd just realized it shouldn't have said Cena since Barrett will end up picking the ref.

[Shadow]

What the hell is the point of a GM if just about anyone can make any type of match.

IT MAKES NO SENSE!

[VSG]

The crowd died in shock at that match announcement.

[SOCCER LEGS]

cenas gonna get ordered to lay down

[parkmania]

Otunga gets fired from Nexus after Gabriel and Slater win the belts.

[VSG]

LOL@Otunga's transitional reign.

[Shadow]

...WHAT!?

This makes absolutely no sense

[ClockShot]

Fingerpoint o' doom strikes again.

[SOCCER LEGS]

man barrett's being a real dick

[Emperor Smeat]

Another plan by Otunga ends in failure since he looses a belt in order to punish Cena who had a belt.

[VSG]

Lie down and raise your legs high in the air, Otunga!

[Shadow]

CAN WE GET ON WITH THIS!

[SOCCER LEGS]

christ barrett really hates black people

[Shadow]

Jesus that's just....stupid!

[nrt4]

Cena and Otunga just got Kane-ed when it comes to tag titles

[Tom Guycott]

That's right, Otunga... KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!

[erickman]

Fingerpoint o' doom strikes again.

wonder if nash is back with wwe and writing for them.

[RatedGSuperstar]

ONE OF THE BIGGEST MAIN EVENTS WE'VE EVER HAD. Well, at least since the last time we saw this one.

[Shadow]

Jesus fuck that was just about pointless

[Cool King]

I feel an Otunga face turn coming soon.

[Shadow]

They're trying to break up Nexus I want to say but I don't really care.

[ClockShot]

EXCUSE ME!

[bigslimjj]

I think Orton has wrestled Cena more times then Flair has wrestled Steamboat.

[Shadow]

Oh Cole...you're totally heeling it up lately.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Vickie's lost a ton of weight.

[Shadow]

YES! THE FLIGHT IS HERE!

[Supreme Olajuwon]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Shadow]

why is CM Punk wearing a D.A.R.E. shirt?

[Ultra Mantis]

PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNK!

[ClockShot]

I thought D.A.R.E. was defunct.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Punk vs. Danielson?</font> :drool:

[Poit]

Punk at commentary :love:

[Triple Naitch]

Inevitable Daniel Bryan/CM Punk feud. :drool:

[bigslimjj]

The start of a Punk/Bryan feud? Yes please.

[Shadow]

Oh I love Daniel Bryan's submission specialty.

[VSG]

lol Punk ripping Lawler.

[ClockShot]

Whoa. Bryant's pulling out all the stops.

[Juan]

lmao @ Punk

[Shadow]

And Punk is awesome for mentioning Bryan's main mentor.

[RatedGSuperstar]

"The only thing Shawn Michaels did was take $3000 of his money."

Awesome.

[Cool King]

Punk's right, he really should be at the announce table every Monday night.

Well, when he's not wrestling, obviously.

[Providence Peep]

Punk's right, he really should be at the announce table every Monday night.

Well, when he's not wrestling, obviously.

Punk said he should be at the announce table every night, not every Monday night. :|
And did you guys hear him ask Bryan if he's ok?

[Shadow]

Why is Cole complaining about the officiating that ended in their favor?

[Jura]

Kaitlyn looks nice.

[ClockShot]

Nicky escaping from the box certainly paid off.

[SOCCER LEGS]

daniel bryan's elbow is bleeding... STOP THE MATCH!!!

[Shadow]

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[SOCCER LEGS]

new SES with daniel bryan!???

[Providence Peep]

new SES with daniel bryan!???

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Shadow]

That was a damn good match. Let's hope the rest of the show is even better.

[Shadow]

Really...they're still doing this guest star shit?

[dronepool]

"The only thing Shawn Michaels did was take $3000 of his money."

Awesome.

I thought that was a cool line as well.

[SOCCER LEGS]

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS READING BULLSHIT

[SOCCER LEGS]

FUCK OFF WWE WITH THIS PUBLIC RELATIONS BULLSHIT

[Savio]

wrasscal reading callenge!

[Shadow]

Oh good...Santino and Toby....this should be good.

GIVE HIM THE COBRA SANTINO!

[Cool King]

Punk said he should be at the announce table every night, not every Monday night. :|

I'm sure he meant every Monday night. :|

[Skippord]

boy do I hope Sheamus kicks Santino's head into the 6th row

[Shadow]

Oh good...Cena's Wade's errand boy...WE GET IT!

[Skippord]

sweet Nexus hat

[SOCCER LEGS]

this just got interesting

[Shadow]

10 bucks says Wade Barret gives Cena a Wasteland to help him "win" the match.

[Johnny Vegas]

Good RAW so far

[Cool King]

Cena's Nexus band is velcro!?

[Shadow]

Why'd Laycool get the jobber's entrance?

[Cool King]

Oh no, Melina.

[Ultra Mantis]

I'm guessing Wade offers Cena the chance to be his second in command instead of being bossed around like a bitch, cue Nexus hat.

[ClockShot]

Gail Kim & Melina in matching attire?

Weird.

[ClockShot]

Quick & painless.

[Shadow]

That was a crappy ass superkick.

[RatedGSuperstar]

The match was pointless, but I'll never complain about Layla in wrestling gear.

[SOCCER LEGS]

getting really sick of vince using RAW as a pedestal for this election bullshit

[Shadow]

Oh good...the Miz is out being awesome.

[Emperor Smeat]

lol Miz

"The team should have consisted of 7 Mizes instead of 1 Miz and 6 Losers"

[Savio]

monday right raw

[Cool King]

"Monday Right Raw".

I like Miz's Scooby-Doo impression. :y:

[Dukelorange]

monday right raw

Yikes, Scooby....

[Dukelorange]

Miz is giving it to Eve...

[Shadow]

....did the Miz write Eve's promo for her?

[Juan]

lol wow Eve has mic skills

[Juan]

lolllll "aaaaand you're ugly"

[Shadow]

R-Truth's about to come in and lay the smackdown on Miz and A-Rye.

[Dukelorange]

Miz wrote this whole segment!!!

[SOCCER LEGS]

why did they send out eve?

[Shadow]

Called it!

[Dukelorange]

Truth is being fed to Miz.... Miz wrote the segement... all around good night for Miz...

[Johnny Vegas]

lol i loved that promo with Miz/Eve/NFL rookie

[Shadow]

Miz definitly wrote Eve's lines for her that's for damn sure. Was nicely written too.

[Savio]

this segment is foreverrrrrrr

[CSL]

Crowd going absolutely mild for R-Truth.

[VSG]

mild

[RatedGSuperstar]

Only thing that Miz promo was missing was something about being as courageous as Brett Favre.

[CSL]

Miz definitly wrote Eve's lines for her that's for damn sure. Was nicely written too.

Uh huh, Miz is clearly the only person working for Vince that knows how to string some words together competently.

[RawRocks]

That was quite possibly the funniest anonymous GM quote in the history of the Anonymous GM .. "Ding. Ding. Ding."

[Shadow]

FACE IN TROUBLE! TAKE A SHOT!

[Shadow]

Oh good...they're bringing up Cole and King's real lives. I love this!

[Savio]

10 bucks says Wade Barret gives Cena a Wasteland to help him "win" the match.
word

[Dukelorange]

It's all in execution. Is doesn't matter who wrote the lines, Eve has gotten my respect for mic skills. For a minute, I almost didn't miss Trish.... *slaps himself in the face* What am I saying!?!??!

[Shadow]

...Eve just slapped the shit out of A-Rod's mouth. that was awesome!

[Dukelorange]

Eve needs another title run, but the LayCool thing is so funny!!!

[Shadow]

This guest star shit needs to end. There's no point to it anymore.

[Shadow]

I don't give a shit about what the fuck you were watching in Mexico. Seriously. Shut the hell up and announce the next match Keith.

[Dukelorange]

He ain't bad....

[SOCCER LEGS]

dude looks drunk as hell

[Ultra Mantis]

I have no idea who this guy is or what the hell he's talking about, but I do know I want him to stop.

[Shadow]

Oh...Santino's gonna get his head kicked the fuck off

[Shadow]

and Now we're about to get a new match. Morrison's gonna get his head kicked off.

[Shadow]

....WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?

[Poit]

What the fuck.

[Skippord]

awful

[CSL]

lol wtf

[Cool King]

Who did Sheamus piss off then? :p

[Dukelorange]

Wow.... Santino won and I guess John Morrison is going to pay for this next week right? #facepalm

[Supreme Olajuwon]

aahahahaha awesome

[Ultra Mantis]

Who did Sheamus piss off then? :p

Must have been late to the gym. :shifty:

[Providence Peep]

I smell a John Morrison heel turn

[CSL]

Wow.... Santino won and I guess John Morrison is going to pay for this next week right? #facepalm

Good lord.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

In the moment observation: this has been the best Raw in years. Hope the main event delivers.

[VSG]

I was going "Boy, that guest host looks a lot like Morrison" for a while :|

[RatedGSuperstar]

lmao, the stream I'm watching has Linda McMahon campaign ads. Nice to know the streamer lives in the Tri-State Area.

And yeah, Stephanie's still a MILF.

[Shadow]

Oh god I don't care about standing up for the WWE

[Shadow]

The Bella twins do make me smile...just never wrestle again.

[LuigiD]

The only good part of this commercial/whatever you want to call it is the Miz pretending to be the Rock.

[Shadow]

Oh good...Otunga's gonna voice his dissapointment.

[bigslimjj]

<a href="http://photobucket.com/images/santino%20marella" target="_blank"><img src="http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu180/tomacco323/funny/santino.jpg" border="0" alt="santino marella Pictures, Images and Photos"/></a>

[RatedGSuperstar]

One way you can Stand Up For WWE: blast Democrats with steel chairs.

[VSG]

Ok that was a cool moment. Wish they all came out in the new Nexus Top Rope shirt though.

[Shadow]

...BET HE COMES BACK ON FRIDAY AND TAKES OUT KANE!

[Cool King]

Husky's "N" is wider than everyone else's. :lol:

[Providence Peep]

One way you can Stand Up For WWE: blast Democrats with steel chairs.

I'm all for that! I would never vote for a baby killer, anyway!

[RawRocks]

at this time Jerry Jones is probably looking through the "Rolodex of washed up or no name QBs"

[Dukelorange]

Sure, get rid of the only other Nexus member that can speak....

SN: That Psych commercial is funny as heck...

[CSL]

They could have had Barrett on that Stand Up For WWE vid talking about how he has an exact copy of the Goldberg tattoo under the tats on his arm now.

[VSG]

Closet Republicans coming out here.

[Shadow]

Closet Republicans coming out here.

So Log Cabin Republicans?

[Shadow]

I've been waiting for this one!

[Shadow]

Not this match, the guest host.

[Dukelorange]

Pee Wee Herman!?!?!?! Was Marky Mark unavailable?

[Jura]

Chances of Otunga leaving Nexus and getting Young, Tarver and Sheffield together?

[RatedGSuperstar]

Closet Republicans coming out here.

Meh, not really. I just think it's funny how worked up WWE is getting over this dumb election.

[Dukelorange]

Chances of Otunga leaving Nexus and getting Young, Tarver and Sheffield together?

Not very high.... It will be like NWO Red and NWO White

[bigslimjj]

And we're back to seven members of Nexus.I guess the first group was too "dark" for Vince. Racists I tell ya,racists.

[CSL]

Supreme just fell asleep.

[Skippord]

I hope they do a skit next week with Pee Wee Herman whacking it while watching a divas match

[RatedGSuperstar]

Can we just skip the match and get to the good stuff?

[VSG]

And we're back to seven members of Nexus.I guess the first group was too "dark" for Vince. Racists I tell ya,racists.

Otunga's no KKK member, bro.

[Dukelorange]

I think Cena can get away with replacing all of the "N"s with Nexus "N"s and I think they will be okay....

[Shadow]

Oh wow....Cena/Orton classic going on right here. AKA I'm bored.

[VSG]

Also, Pee Wee will give a new meaning to the wrestling slang "Beat that Meat".

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Supreme just fell asleep.

I got cerebraled

[CSL]

Oh wow....Cena/Orton classic going on right here. AKA I'm bored.

Have you always been this awful? Never really noticed before.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Raw threads seem to bring out the best in people.

[Shadow]

If Cena is in a rest hold, take a shot.

[Dukelorange]

Raw is going to be hosted by this man....http://media.social.msn.com/images/blogs/test/41_1747_20100701170156_Pee_Wee_Herman.jpg

Am I the only one that has a problem with this!?!?!

I don't think Miz can save us from this....

3RD_COMING SAVE_US.X29 Y=X+1

[Providence Peep]

If Cena is in a rest hold, take a shot.

cum shot?

[Shadow]

TAKE A SHOT!

[bigslimjj]

Otunga's no KKK member, bro.3 african americans - 2 African americans+ Otunga on the way out=Racists.:lol:

[VSG]

Great posts on this page :y:

[Shadow]

Oh wow....they've actually got something going on.

[Shadow]

Hey...since when did Cena learn how to fly?

[Juan]

Hey...since when did Cena learn how to fly?

He's been doing that move for like 7 years

[Shadow]

Randy Orton still has a pretty ass dropkick...still.

[Shadow]

Holy shit that actually looked like it hurt.

[Shadow]

PUNT KICK...I KNEW IT!

[bigslimjj]

Props on the "Not in my fight" bit.

[SaskatchewanChamp]

Orton is bland as fuck.

[Shadow]

See now that they're at full strength...THEY'RE ACTUALLY ABLE TO FUCKING GET AN EFFECTIVE BEATDOWN!

[SOCCER LEGS]

cena is such a faggot bitch

[Shadow]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! CENA'S GETTING FIRED!

[Shadow]

Oh wow...niiiiiiiiiiice.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: crowd during the whole main event was backwards.

They cheered Cena but if Cena won then Barrett won which the crowd hates.

Orton didn't get any cheers even though he's the "face" in the match and would have prevented Barrett from getting the last laugh.

[SOCCER LEGS]

so i guess heel turn is out of th question?

[VSG]

well well well

[Supreme Olajuwon]

"Randy Orton... is screwed."

Michael Cole line of the year.

[VSG]

Survivor Series looks finally to be the PPV where Cena doesn't wrestle. Also, with that "real reason for attacking Taker" line by Otunga, this Nexus thing seems to be kicking into high gear here.

Note: Michael Cole announced he has a few messages to the crowd at MSG in late November, so that anonymous GM gimmick might well last the year.

[RP]

I had no clue Cena would end up being guest ref. I'm totally shocked. I feel betrayed right now. Really.

[Providence Peep]

Orton turns heel at Survivor Series

[Dukelorange]

Well played WWE.... I may have to buy this PPV just to see what will happen

[Dukelorange]

I knew Cena would be the guest Ref, but I did not know that the implications would be this high.... again well played WWE

[Shadow]

Orton turns heel at Survivor Series

How do you turn heel when you've always been a heel?

[bigslimjj]

Cena wins.

[Jordan]

What a fantastic Raw, one of the best in a long long time.

[Providence Peep]

How do you turn heel when you've always been a heel?

Whoops! I meant to type CENA turns heel (deciding to fully align himself with N).

[crusnik]

what might happen is barrett wins we find out who the raw gm is ,orton goes after barrett in rematch and cena goes after the gm,who got him in this mess in the first place.

[Volare]

Guilly and Harris are in Nexus and Bryan/Ziggy was great. Raw was good.

[VSG]

lol:-

OFFICIAL RESULT AND NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel @ 2:00 via Pin
-Cena walks away as the new champs celebrate. Otunga is a sad panda.
That entire segment was FUCKING TRASH. Good lord that SUCKED.

Randy Orton vs. John Cena is tonight’s main event with the winner going on to ref. the WWE Survivor Series main event. Wade Barrett apparently made this match as well according to Lawler. This is a complete SHIT FEST thus far.

[Lock Jaw]

The moral of today's RAW is...

Sheamus is in the doghouse.

[The Show Off]

Calling it right now...

Cena helps Barrett win the title...

Cena straps the championship around Barrett's waist...

Barrett tells Cena he is no relieved of his obligations to the Nexus...

Cena gladly accepts being relieved of his obligations and shows his appreciation by giving Barrett the Attitude Adjustment...

The Miz runs in cashes in Money in the Bank and wins the championship...

TLC PPV main event Miz (c) v. Barrett v. Cena v. Orton in a Table Elimination match.

[James Steele]

Brilliant booking. Vince McMahon is still better than you!

[The Show Off]

Not saying that's how I'd book it it's just a prediction of how it will be booked.

[James Steele]

TSO, I wasn't attacking you. I was just practicing McMahonism. (2006 4 LIFE)

TLC PPV main event Miz (c) v. Barrett v. Cena v. Orton in a Table Elimination match.

This is pretty much exactly what I think will happen.

I'm intrigued by RAW's mid-card programs. Sheamus vs. John Morrison and Daniel Bryan vs. CM Punk have me really pumped. They can get mileage out of the feuds by having a good ol' fashioned Survivor Series Elimination Match at Survivor Series:

John Morrison, R-Truth, Santino Marella, Vladimir Kozlov & Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus, The Miz, Ezekiel Jackson, William Regal & CM Punk

I almost had Alex Riley in there in place of William Regal, but I figure that Riley can still be a presence at ringside. Regal helped trained both Punk and Bryan, and has a history with both Ezekiel Jackson and Vladimir Kozlov. It'd be an interesting assortment of talent in that match.

Throw in Natalya challenging Michelle McCool & Layla to a Triple Threat Match where she can see both of them, and David Hart Smith vs. Tyson Kidd and the RAW side of the card is fairly complete right there.

[Lara Emily]

I just have to say Wade Barrett is the best thing to come along in the WWE in like at least 5 years if not more. Well and Daniel Bryan

[Loose Cannon]

^Agree twice.

I'll admit I wasn't too sure on Bryan when he first came in, but the guy is money. Great US Champion. Maybe one of the best US Champions to wear that belt in the past couple years. Punk/Bryan will be tremendous.


Really liked Raw. 2010 has been an amazing year for wrestling for me thus far and last night was another good show. I am liking watching this Cena/Nexus angle play out. I thought it might lose steam after a few shows, but the writing has been really good in keeping it interesting. Loved how Nexux added Perfect and IRS Jr. last night. It opened a whole new window to the angle.

The Barrett and Otunga confrontation was really good. This is going to lead to Otunga turning on Barrett very soon. I believe if Bryan never got fired back in the summer, then I believe the Otunga spot right now would of been Daniel Bryan.

When Tarver comes back, he will most likely become Assassian Michael Tarver and take on the Nexus.

Midcard is very solid right now. Dolph and Rhodes are pretty sweet together.

Oh, love that Miz has turned the "Really" into a "WHAT" type catch phrase. haha, he's incredible.

So the E is the goods right now. Haven't enjoyed a year of wrestling this much since 2005 probably.

[The Show Off]

I know Regal trained Danielson but I think Punk was trained in the late 90's in Chicago area which I'm pretty sure Regal wasn't there.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Punk trained with Regal (and Fit Finlay and Dave Taylor) after he got into IWA. So yeah Regal didn't teach Punk how to wrestle but he did give him a bit of knowledge.
