Official Raw Thread for 01/24/11 - Fuck That Noise, I'm Stealing Xero's Thunder

[Cool King]

Sup?

I won't be around to post the RAW thread, so anyone else who wants to feel important and "steal my thunder", you have my blessing.

I feel important now.

And yes, it's around three hours early, but CSL made a good point in the "100,000" Replies Thread.

Was thinking about unlocking Adam Evans fan topic and closing this one for hilarity, but as it's you CK, I'll sticky this one.

Stream? :shifty:

Honestly though, it would be delightful if one of you lovely chaps here on the good ship TPDub could hook me up come show time. Trying to stay up late tonight.

[Xero]

I'm glad Cool King was the one who posted this. He is the future.

[Cool King]

I get the feeling Mason Ryan will be given a new name tonight.

Something like "Mason Faith" or his nickname will be "The Faith" or whatever. Something to explain CM Punk quoting George Michael last week anyway.

I've been going with "Dave Batista's Evil Twin" for the time being. But this is what I'm looking forward too tonight. That and this is the RAW before the Rumble, so I'm expecting it to be great from start to finish.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

DO IT HASNEY. MAKE ME FAMOUS!

[Corndad]

I'm feeling a huge Clusterf*ck of a Royal Rumble Preview as the show ends tonight. The sad thing is. I'm gonna love it. I'm really excited for the Rumble this year. Probably because its so wide open with so many new talents getting pushed.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Hope they announce more of the damn undercard so Tipsters can happen sooner rather than later.

[Cool King]

I think if they were to announce another match, it will be a Diva's match. I get the feeling that the card is pretty much finished now.

We'll probably see this order on Sunday.

WWE Championship Match
Diva's Match
World Heavyweight Championship Match
Royal Rumble Match.

[Londoner]

Always feel the Rumble card is abit too short. Maybe not this year though with it being 40 wrestlers.

[Providence Peep]

Next week at this time I'll be at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, RI to watch Raw live and in person. Of course, I'm planning to bring along a TPWW sign. So excited!

[The Naitch]

Alot of interbrand appearances have been happeneing lately. Seems like they are slowly joining the two rosters together so when it happens it won't feel like a big deal.

you already have Cole on SD!, but he doesn't play "his character" there, just announces

[Savio]

I feel I make THE BEST raw threads

I disagree, he blantantly put his head down on the announcers table and complained about R-Truth's entrance

I think it's just to build the Rumble. Or specifically to give Del Rio and Ziggler exposure on the "A Brand".

Yeah, I get the feeling they'll be drafted to Raw this year.

And if Del Rio wins The Rumble, he'll go after the WWE Championship so he moves to Raw.

[Team Sheep]

Can't wait for Barri Griffiths.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

YALL SHOULD GO TO THE REAL OFFICIAL RAW THREAD!

THIS AINT IT!!

LMAO

[dronepool]

The one with the most replies is the official thread ;)

[Corndad]

C'mon 2nd Hall of Fame announcement lol I don't think they will till after the Rumble but curious what route they go this year with it. Maybe have 2 Headliners? Have HBK and Macho both go in this year?

[Cool King]

I don't know. I don't think they'll throw away two "Headline Inductes" that are Savage & HBK in the same year. I think HBK is the Headline Inductee this year. I think Savage will be the Headline Inductee next year.

[Corndad]

Interesting They are having that match tonight, I figured would wait to have it at Rumble to fill in card.

[Corndad]

Shit Ahmed Johnson vs Batista tonight!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Where'd Edge go?

[ClockShot]

Those are some high stakes.

[Emperor Smeat]

:-\ well there goes any hope for a Core vs Nexus fight during the Rumble.

[Londoner]

What shit booking. For fucks sake.

[ClockShot]

Looks like Wade's gonna go on the decline for a little while.

[Corndad]

The hell DO they have 40 people for the rumble without one of those groups in it lol

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Corre Nexus Alliance forms tonight to kill John Cena.

[Savio]

Cena will DQ them both leading to a stable match at the rumble?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

The Correporate Nexusistry!

[BizarroKing]

If One (or both) stables are out, does this mean more surprise entrants or just more jobber/midcarders in the rumble?

[Savio]

Corre Nexus Alliance forms tonight to kill John Cena.

LOL! Did anyone else see Punk mouth "My dad?" after Cole said "Someone that you're both extremely familiar with"

I swear that's what he did. Somebody rewind it and look.

yes he did. I thought his dad was dead though.

They're focusing too much on hyping it up for tonight rather than having an interesting feud between the two stables at the rumble, so typical, hope the right thing happens later to sort it all out!

[Corndad]

Morrison and Del Rio have the most momentum going into the Rumble. I see Mark Henry taking a pinfall in the very near future lol

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I think Nexus get dropped from the Rumble and then run out and attack Cena and cause him to get dumped by somebody.</font>

Anyone think Bret Hart might be a surprise entrant at RR?

Oh shit.

Lol what the fuck was that

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Rectum? Corre and Nexus will damn near kill em!

[KIRA]

Did Cena ask them if they were the girls from the shining lol

[Providence Peep]

I predict that either Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, or Sgt. Slaughter will be one of the entrants in this year's Royal Rumble.

[RawRocks]

I am sick of Michael Cole's hard on for the Miz

[Team Sheep]

Mason Ryan just spoke Welsh on Monday Night Raw. :love:

Yeah, I was waiting for him to speak Welsh tonight to be honest.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

urr beird is weird is over? boo new just for men ad!

[bigslimjj]

The main event will be a big free for all at the end and the match will be a no contest. This will be due to a large meelee that breaks out, which sees Cena somehow AA'ing all 9 members of both factions at once,then posing accordingly. Come on now,it's the week before the Rumble. They've been doing the same brawl for over a decade.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Yeah like I said they will form the Correporate Nexusitry and beat down Cena with Tarver coming down to make it 10 on 1.

Twenty-five percent of the Royal Rumble field will be of the Corporate Nexusistry.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Vickie is smoking. Good for her.

[KIRA]

JEEZ if cole gets any deeper in the miz's ass Raw will have a gay bare backing on its hands

You guys can't be serious

[Lara Emily]

so I'm line 15 minutes behind cause The Score has to do some stupid preshow that pushes back the start time of Raw but they really need to get Cena off this like PG potty humour gimmick, poo poo and rectum aren't witty, funny, scathing or anything, it's juvenile , boring and lame.

[Lara Emily]

You guys can't be serious

Totes serious

[Providence Peep]

Despite what's being said, the winner of the RR will probably have to end up going on to win the Elimination Chamber match in order to go the WM main event. Isn't that typically what happens every year? So all this talk and speculation about the winner of the RR match is really for nothing.

[Londoner]

Yeah me too don't see it

Yeah, ok, whatever then!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Another new show USA? Fairly Legal? Where's Paul Heyman to sue them? Where is the Silk Stalking reboot?

[Lara Emily]

True facts The Miz absolutely out promo'd John Cena there, like by an embarrassing margin

[Emperor Smeat]

The Simon Says toy is The Corre's logo?

I was wondering why it looked soo similar when I first saw it. I thought at first it was the HAL computer thingy from Space Odyssey but with frames.

Match itself was pretty good between Edge and Miz with the only issue being a bit slow because of too many tv breaks.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Finger 11 did the great Kane theme song.

Non-existent. Just like my chances with Maryse.

Stuck in March 2009.

I know he's not gonna win but I hope they at least give Daniel Bryan a nice run in the Rumble.

[Loose Cannon]

something is going down in the ME tonight. Cena's getting destroyed

[BizarroKing]

If that match doesn't prove McMahon hates the IWC, I don't know what does.

[blak23]

tarver!!!

[Corndad]

Im loving the random Tarver sightings lol

[Jura]

Michael Tarver has found a job as a background extra.

[blak23]

ooooo no she didnt

I always thought Gail was cute... underused as well. She needs another title run before she leaves...

[Johnny Vegas]

lol nice miss by Santino

Whats with Lawler and these PSAs

He's a piece of shit, so he does PSAs.

Oh no Otunga has a mic

that savio vega looking motherfucker is gonna turn on cena. Nice hat...not.

[Lara Emily]

Wade Barrett is the freshest heel ina long time, I love his talk of respect.

[KIRA]

so Otunga is the de facto mouth piece when Punk is out?

Jesus I'd just make them be quiet till he gets there like the members of Marilyn Manson

used to.

[The Naitch]

I just jerked off visualizing the Bella Twins bent over right in front of me side by side

Unlike Xero, I didn't have to take 3 hours doing it

[Corndad]

Marking the hell out. A Yearly Event for this lol

[Emperor Smeat]

:nono: what a cluster-fuck for an ending. Cena "ruins" what could have been a good match by going overboard and also killed off their hype of 1 team eliminated.

I get the idea of Cena being upset with both Barrett and Punk but they over did it and also ruined a potential mini-brawl during the Rumble.

:D At least the tradition of the real cluster-fuck of the pre-Rumble brawl was kept in tact and Raw itself was good overall.

[Londoner]

Well that was a very good Raw. :)

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

They're out of time! byyyyyyyye-Nitro

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Fucking annoys me every single time they hype a stip all night and then don't follow through. The Nexus rushing out and invading the Rumble despite not being in it would have been cool.</font>

[TheAdamEvansFan]

Raw brought back memories of the old WCW Days.. Not with the old wrestlers (has beens now on TNA) but the angles.

The NexSES vs The Corre vs Cena was a clear resemblence of NWO vs WolfPac vs Goldberg in my eyes.

I just marked out all over my desk.

GOOD NIGHT.

[chieflikeanindian]

That my friends was a damn good Raw

[The Naitch]

wrestling in general has been watchable again

remember back in 2003 or whatever, all we would do is complain?

the stable wars has revitalized everything

and it seems like we will see all superstars on both RAW and SD! just like in 1999 before the roster split in 2002. I know it's just for the Rumble, but I can see them slowly transitioning into having us see the entire roster twice a week. Especially that they trimmed all the fat with all the future endeavored class of 2010

[Lara Emily]

Man Cena needs to get killed, I've never wanted to see a face get destroyed so badly.

[Providence Peep]

Man Cena needs to get killed, I've never wanted to see a face get destroyed so badly.

You do know it's all scripted, right?

[MIZantine Empire]

im surprised with all the love for Christian on here that no one mentioned his picture being among the ones displayed for the entrants in the rumble. i would love a big time christian push..

[Lara Emily]

You do know it's all scripted, right?

:|

Of course, doesn't mean when watching I don't want to see certain things happen, they're booking Cena right now like the Face Wrestler version of Micheal Cole. I just find him really annoying on the mic and in the ring.

[MIZantine Empire]

also i would love it if creative pulled a swerve and had someone like cack ryder or yoshi win the rumble..so everyone can be like, wtf didnt see that comming...i know it wont happen, but always thought that would be cool

[SOCCER LEGS]

im surprised with all the love for Christian on here that no one mentioned his picture being among the ones displayed for the entrants in the rumble. i would love a big time christian push..

christian is not a big enough star to return to the rumble and win it without any hype to build it up

[TheAdamEvansFan]

Soccer Legs,

Really?

I disagree completely.

Actually, now that I think about it, I almost GUARANTEE Christian is going to win the Royal Rumble.

Stepping up to Edge for a match at Wrestlemania.... THAT'D BE HUGE!

[Xero]

Just finished watching. Decent RAW. Honestly wasn't that impressed with Edge vs. Miz. It was okay, but nothing great and expected a lot more. Also, a world champion vs. world champion match should NEVER take second place to anything, let alone be put on in the middle of a show.

Completely skipped Nexus vs. Kozlov and Santino. Have no desire to see the latter team in the ring ever again.

The main event I'll take as an angle. I was really pumped for the match itself, and I think they could have easily accomplished the same thing with Cena interfering and the GM saying they're both in the Rumble, but this is WWE.

That said, as Lara said, I want to see Cena get destroyed. I absolutely hated Cena's role in it. I get why they did it, and as I take it as an angle it's not terrible and it does add suspense to a REAL Punk vs Barrett or Nexus vs. Corre match, but fucking hell.

Like I said, they should have just had Cena come out to observe the match and have something lead to Cena screwing them both.

And another thing I just thought of as I was typing this. Cena doing what he did was a pretty fucking cowardly thing to do. That's the type of thing a chickenshit heel should be doing, not your almighty Superman. And no, I'm not condoning Superman booking, but be consistent.

[Juan]

With what Punk has been saying about Cena, it makes sense that Cena would pull what he did. It gives Punk more ammo for his promo next week or whenever.

[Blitz]

Dunno how it came across on TV, but live the pop for Orton was deafening. One of the loudest pops I've ever heard in the Joe. Had no idea he was that over as a face.

This was a pretty good show.

[Xero]

Yeah, was thinking how huge that pop was. Even said to myself as I watched it "damn he's over".

With what Punk has been saying about Cena, it makes sense that Cena would pull what he did. It gives Punk more ammo for his promo next week or whenever.

I agree, but they could have done it without the goofy shit.

[Blitz]

Percy Watson beat William Regal in the dark match, btw. Watson over to a surprising degree.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

What do you think about how the Bellas were pwned by Gail Kim? Think it's Pink Slip Pool for the Twins?

[Lara Emily]

With what Punk has been saying about Cena, it makes sense that Cena would pull what he did. It gives Punk more ammo for his promo next week or whenever.

Yeah I almost feel like with Punk and Barrett they are becoming a sort of Bret Hart heel in the US/face everywhere else kinda thing only with you know smarks (face) and marks (heel). I just feel like they are literally having Cena almost play a heel in this feud, I mean look at last week when he took the guy's phone and just threw it into his food, Cena's a huge dick, tonight neither Barrett or Punk even made any effort to lay a hand on him, fuck Barrett went out and said he respects John Cena and hopes that Cena can respect him and then Cena just fucks them over just for fun. He's practically being booked in a way to make those that didn't like him, like him even less, it's weird. Like I said I've never wanted to see a guy who is supposed to be a face get beat so badly, I was kinda marking out when the RAW GM overturned what Cena did and made him apologize, it's fucking weird. I just wonder if this isn't in some ways on purpose of if the WWE creative team just sucks that badly.

[Xero]

I'm also wondering about the PG references. They used to be sprinkled in, but now they seem to be every week. It even played into the finish to tonight's match. I'm not saying they're going to change, but the "PG Sucks" thing is something that's pretty big with the IWC and smarks in general. I don't know if it's to get over with those fans or piss them off even more, in almost a mocking way.

Yeah I can't figure out if they're trying to placate us and entertain the PG kids and shit or if they just flat out hate us so they're basically laughing in our faces. That DQed for profanity was stupid, if anything Cena should have counted to 10 really fast and ruled that they couldn't answer the count of 10 so the match is a draw

And not only that I agree with Xero it makes Cena look like a coward, by trying to remove Nexus and Corre from the Rumble he's basically saying he's afraid of them and wannts an easier road to winning the Rumble. Cena's supposed to be some guy with honour and intgrity, he should be saying that he doesn't care if Nexus or Corre are in the Rumble cause he's better then them, in fact he should want them there so he can beat them himself. HNot take the cowardly way out ansd screw them both over, total chickenshit heel tactic. The RAW GM focing Cena to apologize and overturning his ruling just felt like a total face moment.

The biggest shock of the night: Soccer Legs is back. Welcome back!!! :shifty:

Thanks to the tireless saints who, week after week, allow me to have my wrestling fix via YouTube since I usually have to work when the shows air. Late to the party, I'm about to START watching RAW right now.

I must admit, I know the joke is old, but the following vid has ruined my brain as far as the opening bump goes.

I ALWAYS expect the Booker T part, even though I logically know better. For the record, I've also ruined Busta Rhymes' "Break Ya Neck" with thoughts of Dave Chappelle's Rick James impersonation, and the song is now known as "Fuck Ya Couch".

I have problems. ^_^

I went to the show tonight, and it was actually a really fun show to be at. Even if the product isnt that good, I still enjoy the live events, and this was a solid show all around. Really wanted Cena to get beat down by both stables, but Big Show and his crew had to ruin that.

Though maybe the best part of the entire night wasnt even televised. Before the main event Punk came out and said he wanted silence. Well of course the crowd refused, so he said "Ok, u asked for it". So he plays video of Derrick Bateman's vignette on selling "Worlds Strongest Man" with cricket noises. I have never seen a crowd die so quicky. Just proves that Punk is the man.

And on the other side of that, Orton's pop was just ridiculous. He always seems to have a big reaction in Detroit anyways, but tonights was the loudest I have heard in a while.

I read the results and the main event sounds stupid.

[Xero]

It is.

ROFL'ed at that. Never saw Bateman before. Kind of love him now.

Fuck that CM Punk segment should have been on TV!

Completely awful.

[Lara Emily]

I'm sad they let Otunga talk again, days after I gave them credit for shutting him up once CM Punk took over and brainwashed them. Absolutely none of them should talk other than Punk, not just because Otunga and co suck on the mic but because it fits the gimmick of New Nexus.

[Damian Rey]

Overall I thought the show was solid for a go-home show. I really wanted to get into the Miz/Edge match, but I just couldn't. Not that it was bad, but I just didn't feel drawn in.

They killed the Daniel Bryan storyline pretty quickly, and I'm curious to see what they have planned for him now that's got the Bella's off of him.

Cena as the ref in the main event was a bit overkill. I get what they're trying to do, but he was just a little too obnoxious this week.

Thought last week's show was better to be honest.

He's really just been obnoxious every week

[erickman]

lol Gail's right y'know.

the sad thing the bellas were right too, gail probly should have stayed in tna.

[RGWhat316]

Yeah I really should have taken video of that now lol. I haven't even watched NXT lately so I didn't even know what the "Worlds Strongest Man" product was and I was laughing too much at how dead the crowd actually got just seconds after the video started playing. Wish I would have been closer to ringside to bow down to Punk on that one.

[Tom Guycott]

Wishful thinking:

Bellas are pissed and "hire" Amazing Kong (or "Pale Rider", as her name would become according to a WWE name generator I just used). Kim and Kong re-ignite their feud from TNA. This effectively presents Kong to the 'E masses and results in putting Gail in matches other than 6 Diva tags where she doesn't even enter the ring. This causes that whole lot of nothing that Bella angle was to actually lead somewhere, stops getting Gail buired on the roster, and turns the twins into mastermind heels. Yeah, it is short sighted for what to do with Kong, but would make me happy.

Addendum: ... furthermore, the Bellas hire a boy-toy to take out Bryan. In light of his current SD! angle, they remove Kelly from the Drew-Mac equation, since they are now mastermind heels, and don't mind him hurting people. Feud starts over US title. Even better: they do something like interject themselves into Ted Jr's life, and he begins to win again, and they convince him to kick Maryse to the curb. We get DiBiase with hot heel twins and an eventual singles title due to interference from women scorned, sets Maryse up for something else to do besides keep bickering with Ted, and Ted's money can be the catylist for the scenario above for the "hiring" of Kong to take out Gail Kim.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Wouldn't mind seeing DiBiase dump Maryse for the Twins. It'd give him a little more momentum and more of a reason to feud with Bryan.

[Lara Emily]

It almost feels like Daniel Bryan should be the one going heel, I mean the Bellas just really liked him and he strung them along because he felt sorry for them or something. Total asshole thing to do. Then again this is WWE treating women like shit is often a face thing so what do I know lol.

[Xero]

Nunzio was the ref in the dark match.

[XCaliber]

Wouldn't mind seeing DiBiase dump Maryse for the Twins. It'd give him a little more momentum and more of a reason to feud with Bryan.

This and if it lead to DiBiase ending his losing streak and capturing the US Championship then so be it even though they've split I couldn't help think that Maryse should join Miz and Alex Riley cuz they are "winners".
