The Official Rock Took His Abdomen and Went Home Raw(4/8/13) Thread

[Providence Peep]

I would love to be able to see/hear Vince's reactions to this crowd.

[Cool King]

A part of me wishes that I was part of the crowd tonight.

It looks and sounds so damn fun.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Man, imagine if Brock Lesnar F5's Punk. That shit would be hectic. Why that would happen, I've got no clue, but it would be amazing.

[Blakeamus]

Wonder where RAW will be post WM next year. Doubt a new orleans crowd will be this peppy

Oh they will...trust me.

[CSL]

Was trying to watch those Cena moment clips to see if any of them still had the Brahma Bull logos on the belt. Every time I locked on the belt, Cena had the spot covered by his hand.

they've been changed

[parkmania]

Hey, Pizza Hut, how about instead of continually trying to "reinvent the wheel" you just MAKE MY FRIGGIN PIZZA!

[Gone Mad]

If this crowd busts out a Super Dragon chant, then this is the greatest night in all of sports entertainment history.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Surely the WWE must be happy to have such a buzz about their product, right? Even if they did shit all over Orton and Sheamus. Serves them right for booking them so boring.

[rockman725]

This crowd makes me want to watch ECW One Night Stand 2006...which I just watched again 2 days ago!

[rob11]

lol at Tommy Dreamers tweet.

[Corndad]

Man, imagine if Brock Lesnar F5's Punk. That shit would be hectic. Why that would happen, I've got no clue, but it would be amazing.

WM 30... Brock vs Punk... Where Paul has to pick a side... Again.

[Droford]

it won't be a New Orleans crowd, in the same vein this isn't a NY/NJ crowd and last years wasn't a Miami crowd

Make you a bet that if they have the post WM RAW in New Orleans that it wont be anything like this. I imagine WM could be loud being its in the Super Dome though

[GD]

This crowd is easily one of the coolest ever on RAW.

[GD]

Paul E! Paul E!

[parkmania]

Was trying to watch those Cena moment clips to see if any of them still had the Brahma Bull logos on the belt. Every time I locked on the belt, Cena had the spot covered by his hand.

they've been changed

I know they have now, but I just wondered when he got the plates changed - last night after the show, this morning, or not until he got to the arena tonight.

[Kris P Lettus]

Paul "2 inch ponytail" Heyman

[Savio]

Was just thinking no Punk yet.Or Brock

[Mr. Nerfect]

I hope other crowds are watching this and getting the same rush and bring their A-game.

[Innovator]

I wonder if Brock and Punk run in the main event

[GD]

Paul E wants a cracker.

[CSL]

Make you a bet that if they have the post WM RAW in New Orleans that it wont be anything like this. I imagine WM could be loud being its in the Super Dome though

I guarantee you they are, the crowd will be made up of the exact same variety of fan aka mostly "smart fans" finishing their WM weekend before going back to whatever part of the world they live in

[Droford]

Lesnar doesnt fight for free, duh

[Blakeamus]

From what I can remember from Miami last year was the uproar of "Yes!" chants, that's it.

[Road Warrior]

Sandow, this should be great

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Time for the "WrestleMania" match. :D

[Corndad]

This 8 man tag prob glad it waited till tonight now.

[Next Big Thing]

This crowd is going to have fun with this one.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Paul Heyman is such a fucking pro.

[Savio]

Would have liked to see Punk deal with this crowd

[ron the dial]

those xl bella breasts just don't look right

[Droford]

Its the deleted WM match included tonight for the DVD Bonus features!

[Cool King]

WrestleMania match up now!

[Curd]

Hey, Pizza Hut, how about instead of continually trying to "reinvent the wheel" you just MAKE MY FRIGGIN PIZZA!

OMG, TELL ME ABOUT IT! Those stinkers can hardly get anything right some days! Did they run out of toppings or crust the last time you ordered?

[parkmania]

Tons of Funk in pimp suits?!?!

[Mr. Nerfect]

God The Bellas are fucking gorgeous.

[Poit]

[Mr. Nerfect]

Sandow's theme got a bigger pop than Tons of Funk.

[Road Warrior]

disappointed they didn't give Sandow a mic with this crowd

[Mr. Nerfect]

I really hope that we do get Punk in the main event. Can you imagine if Cena beats Henry and then Punk gives Cena a GTS to close the show?

[Kris P Lettus]

lol Dreamer

[Poit]

disappointed they didn't give Sandow a mic with this crowd

They're probably just running low on time. Assuming a 15-minute overrun, there's only a half hour for the mixed tag match and the main event.

[GD]

lol Tensai!

[Corndad]

The fuck was that move HAHAHAHAHHA

[Poit]

Holy shit Tensai.

[Gone Mad]

And the Fandango theme is still going! Bizarroville!

[CSL]

big guys doing barrels in the corner make me cringe every time, no escaping that

[Cool King]

What was Cole laughing at Tensai for?

I missed it.

[road doggy dogg]

lol Fandango's theme still.. excellent
crossrine

[Hanso Amore]

LOL the Fangdango thing made me long into TPWW


SO good

[GD]

This match wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. I can't wait for someone to interfere in the John Cena - Mark Henry matchup.

[ron the dial]

you've got the rhythm of a drunk elephant

[Corndad]

Wonder what Kurt Warner is thinking right now lol

[Mr. Nerfect]

Those Splashes should have been off the top rope.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Tensai is so good.

[ron the dial]

lollllllllllll rockpocalypse

[Blakeamus]

If this RAW gets a huge rating, thank the WWE universe!

[Aikido]

Can't wait for the ridiculously loud boos to shake that arena when Cena enters.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Tons of Funk vs. Rhodes Scholars is a feud that should continue. Team Funk with The Miz and Barrett with The Scholars on SmackDown for a six-man tag or something.

[Immortal Moose]

wow that's a game...

[rob11]

This would be the crowd to start a Benoit chant...okay maybe not.

[Droford]

I didnt notice..did Cena get rid of the Brahma Bull plate on the belt?

[Corndad]

What was Cole laughing at Tensai for?

I missed it.

Randomly Barrell Rolled into the corner for a move. It was fantastic.

[Mr. Nerfect]

If they give Henry a clean win here, it would cement him pretty good as a threat to the title. I'm not sure they should, but I do like Henry.

[Cool King]

Randomly Barrell Rolled into the corner for a move. It was fantastic.

Damn, and I missed it. :(

[Mr. Nerfect]

Tensai is one of my favourites. He was pushed way too hard last year and there wasn't enough explanation behind the character, but the performer is good.

[road doggy dogg]

If they give Henry a clean win here, it would cement him pretty good as a threat to the title. I'm not sure they should, but I do like Henry.

They're running dangerously thin on legit main eventers right now. I don't know if he'll get a clean win, but they do need to give him some more credibility so I do see him going over.
crossrine

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Already parodying the Evil Dead Reboot in Scary Movie V? Jesus Christ. Quit making these movies.

[Droford]

Potential "Huge" surprises for the main event..?

Christian? A Christian/Cena feud would be interesting

[rob11]

If there will ever be a chocolate drop chant, it will be in this match.

[Krimzon7]

I HEARD ZIGGLES CASHED IN AND WON THE TITLE!!!! FUCK YOU WWE FOR DOING THAT DURING THE NATIONAL TITLE GAME!!!!

[Cool King]

Are they singing along with Henry's theme? :lol:

[Poit]

CHOCOLATE <strike>DROP</strike> POP

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

If I charge for air you keep your bill paid!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Savio]

hope the crowd chants this song during the match

[Innovator]

This is the song to sing along with

[Mr. Nerfect]

They might hold back on Ryback tonight, just because the crowd might boo the crap out of him.

[Gone Mad]

Drunk white college guys dancing around and singing to Mark Henry's theme? Yes, this show has it all!

[Blakeamus]

Cena's gonna get his ass kicked!
Cena's gonna get his wig split! would be awesome

[Kris P Lettus]

the world biggest forehead

[Mr. Nerfect]

I want Henry to do that up and down crowd control thing he used to do.

[Blakeamus]

I guess Cena didn't throw the shirt in the crowd?

[Curd]

Drunk white college guys dancing around and singing to Mark Henry's theme? Yes, this show has it all!

Yes, the university indoctrination to explore other cultures influenced them at least as much as the alcohol.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Does Cena's shirt say "RTIME - NOW?"

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I love Henry's theme. Everytime you hear that "WHOA HEY!" opening you know somebody's about to get messed up.</font>

[Hanso Amore]

Fandango chant is this years YES YES YES YES

[Mr. Nerfect]

LOL, Cena! He's loose tonight. Might actually win over the crowd.

[rob11]

Same old shit chant.

[Aikido]

O yea, somethings about to go down.......

[Corndad]

It can't end this way?

[Droford]

no title match for sexual chocolate

[Poit]

Oh what the fuck.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Cena wins by cuntout.

[parkmania]

Does Cena's shirt say "RTIME - NOW?"

RTime = Now


I wish R-Truth would feud with Cena and parody this shirt.

[road doggy dogg]

...the fuck? Someone better be coming out
crossrine

[Mr. Nerfect]

Well. OK.

[Droford]

Ryback better shell shock Cena

fucking waste of #20000 if he doesnt

[Road Warrior]

lesnar comming ?

[Corndad]

Ryback so gonna go after Cena.

[Seth82]

what an awesome crowd tonight.

[Blakeamus]

Meh

[Blakeamus]

well this ended poorly

[ron the dial]

THERE IT IS RYBACK

[Mr. Nerfect]

Shell Shock for Cena please.

[Poit]

Excellent.

[parkmania]

Hey Cena!


WAKE UP!!!!

[Emperor Smeat]

lol at the pop from the clothesline.

Guess the dirtsheets were right about Ryback turning and going against Cena after Mania.

[ron the dial]

i can dig on a cena/henry/ryback situation around the title. something new.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

RYBACK!!!!!!!!!!

[GD]

Ryback telling Cena to fuck off! :heart:

[Aikido]

Did Ryback just give the Fuck You sign to Cena???

[Hanso Amore]

I have hated him until now but hes now my favorite of all time



RYBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACk

[Blakeamus]

oh wow

[Corndad]

Well there's that lol What a Freakin Off the Charts Raw.

[Kris P Lettus]

i liked it guys

[Droford]

I hope the Shield interferes in Ryback's title match again

[Cool King]

I did not expect to see that!

[Savio]

It was a pretty good raw, Hope this was a Ryback heel turn.

Awesome crowd.

[rob11]

Ryback should be a tweener who takes out everyone.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Seems like Ryback is just going after Cena. No need to turn him heel. He can be the adults' favourite against the children and ladies' pick of Cena.

[Blakeamus]

The crowd totally mind fucked the wrestlers the whole night...

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The announcers reacted as if he'd just turned heel but the crowd loved it.

Great Raw. Actually excited to tune in next week.</font>

[Gone Mad]

I really don't think it's Ryback as the heel, he's just the antihero here.

Business has just picked up!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I think it might just be a Ryback trying to take his spot as top face and champ not a heel turn.

[Aikido]

And NNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION..............DOLPH ZIGGGLLLEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

[Blakeamus]

I wondered what it would of been like if infact Rock was there

[rob11]

Is it a heel turn if the crowd cheers you?

[Blakeamus]

I really don't think it's Ryback as the heel, he's just the antihero here.

Business has just picked up!

It's the same as Punk taking out Rock on the 1,000 episode...

[CSL]

that was a heel turn, this wasn't

[rob11]

I wonder if the Fandango dancing will carry onto other Raw's.

[Savio]

If brock was there and they didn't use him at all then damn they just wasted 200,000

[road doggy dogg]

Bit of a lull around 9:45-10:00 but otherwise fucking amazing Raw top to bottom. Ziggler winning was absolutely brilliant.
crossrine

[rob11]

It was fun tonight. It sucks we may not see a Raw crowd like that for a long time.

[rob11]

If this is my only Raw thread in TPdub's history it still kicked ass.

[screech]

Going to use Fandango's theme on my show somehow.

I wish I could get a clear version of the crowd doing it lol

[Ruien]

Hoping it is not a heel turn. Ryback receives the best pop on a nightly basis and he has lost in every ppv in the past 6 months. On a personal note, he is the only wrestler to get me off my sit nightly. Do not want my favorite face wrestler to turn heel or even be a tweener.

[rob11]

I compare this Raw to the one I went to a couple weeks ago. Anyone who chanted for Punk got yelled at by parents and their kids. Raw's like this give me hope it can be fun again.

[road doggy dogg]

I don't generally care for Ryback, I think he's too one-dimensional. BUT if they flesh him out a bit he definitely can win me over. And they do need a fresh face or two in the main event, so I don't mind it.

Look at it this way:

WrestleMania 29 was used to settle scores and bring storylines to a boiling point.

RAW was used to kick off the Road to WrestleMania 30 and bring out a new landscape.

That's usually how it works.

[Skippord]

I had Ziggler's title win spoiled for me and I still totally fist pumped when he won

real embarrassing moment for me

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Just watched the cash in again. So awesome.

[Lock Jaw]

Trying to go to sleep. Trying to clear my head, but all that pops in is DAAAAAA-DAAA-DA-DA-DAAAA-DA-DA.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Lol just caught a bunch of clips from the show since I couldn't watch last night. Hope the Fandango theme sticks around like the "Yes" chants. It'll at least get attempted next week I'm guessing.

[MIZantine Empire]

I got called gay twice tonight by the girlfriend.. First for making the dog do the Ziggler booty wiggle in one of my biggest mark out moments when he cashed in, and humming fandangos theme whilst sashaying around the aptartment.. Lol what an EPIC raw.. The wwe needs to go and shake the hands of all 16,000+ in attendance tonight for making that a true attitude era crowd

[James Steele]

Awesome RAW. I'm glad Triple H was smart enough to not throw himself to the lions.

[#1-norm-fan]

So I had a 7 hour drive to LA. Settled in to the place I'm staying at around 10:30 and started watching Raw after the Del Rio match. I was treated immediately to Ziggler cashing in, JBL, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler chants during a face vs. face match and the crowd humming Fandango's theme.

I either passed out and had an insane dream or that was the most hilariously awesome Raw ever. I'm leaning toward the first option.

[James Steele]

Yeah, I gave you too strong of drugs. Also, sorry that I "X-Pac'd" your asshole.

[#1-norm-fan]

No more turnbuckles in my rectum, please. Too kinky.

[teamXtremist]

great raw crowd made that show.one of the greatest crowds ive ever witnessed on tv

ziggler and fandango r soo over

[James Steele]

No more turnbuckles in my rectum, please. Too kinky.

That wasn't a turnbuckle. :naughty:

[Bad News Gertner]

Awesome RAW. I'm glad Triple H was smart enough to not throw himself to the lions.

Because he knows true wrestling fans know he's terrible.

[James Steele]

Because he knows true wrestling fans know he's terrible.

Triple H was such an awesome heel that true fans refuse to cheer him because they have never forgiven him for breaking JRs arm or being behind Stone Cold getting run over.

[Bad News Gertner]

lol yeah that's EXACTLY it.

[James Steele]

Only guy who gets more heel heat than Triple H is John Cena.

[Bad News Gertner]

HHH wasn't getting heat or pops during his promos leading up to his match.

[James Steele]

Instead of shitting all over his promos, people actually listened to his promos. Silence is golden during promos. If they are chanting shit during your promo, they aren't listening.

[Bad News Gertner]

Yup, only man in the industry in history.

[James Steele]

You didn't hear anybody talking during that Harley Race promo, did you?

[Bad News Gertner]

I'm pretty sure that promo was just in front of a camera.

[James Steele]

I'm pretty sure that promo was just in front of a camera.

Taped in front of a studio audience. Remember those old promos were a little set to the side of the ring and crowd.

[Bad News Gertner]

The crowd was like that for the majority of the promos at that time

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/74qXFe8PMUE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[James Steele]

Triple H is an old school guy.

[Bad News Gertner]

Nothing says Old School like crotch chopping and suck it.

[James Steele]

Thats what soldiers did to gooks back in the day.

[DaveBrawl]

Nothing says Old School like crotch chopping and suck it.
Sad to think they started doing that almost 20 years ago.

[Schlomey]

Best raw in years. I laughed, I teared up, I bounced all over the couch multiple times in excitement......even mark Henry made me pop.

[Schlomey]

I bet randy orton hated every second of it however.

[Cool King]

I've had Fandango's theme in my head all day.

Though it's mostly the "Da da, da da dada dada-dadada" version than the actual version.

[Cool King]

I bet randy orton hated every second of it however.

Yeah, I got a feeling that he was getting pissed off at the crowd during the match but he was trying hard not to show it.

I think he enjoyed it tbh, his demeanour went quite heelish about half way through in terms of his movement, expressions etc and that's the role he makes no secret about loving

IYO, what was better Raw or WrestleMania? IMO, I have to give it to raw.

A friend posted this on his facebook page with the comment of "It would have been better if they had used "Goat Face" Daniel Bryan."

Just buzzed through the results on the main page and it sounds like the crowd was wild all night. Went to a buddy's house and watched the ncaa men's game last night.

I'll catch the replay on Universal friday.

Cena's Speech after Raw to the Crowd. Great stuff.

Just finished downloading the 1080p version of last nights Raw. I will be marking out all over again.

Ziggler cashes in tonight.

Watching the Barrett - Miz match again, and that section behind the ring normal angle is full of English guys. Watching them throughout the broadcast. They look like the noisemakers. Can tell where the Olé chants start and the random name calls.

True what the comments are saying from people there. It was a primarily European crowd who were starting the chants off.

If next week is like this, I would be shocked.

[Tommy Gunn]

The crowd and the commentary were hilarious all night long, my face hurts from laughing so much.

I'm not a big Randy Orton fan, but I'd like to see Rock vs Orton. It feels like a big time match and Orton being a heel vs a face Rock would be electric.

The anticipation and reaction when Ziggler's music finally hits is still making me mark out. Great moment.

:yes:

I too would love to see this. I feel like they would potentially have great chemistry together too, both in ring and on the mic.
