The "If *NOC SPOILER* I'm not watching again until Cena comes back" Raw thread for 9/16

[Theo Dious]

The spoiler being "if Bryan is stripped of the title" because, quite frankly, the idea of the authoritah figures stripping a champion they just don't like totally shits all over the entire Austin/McMahon feud and makes the entire idea of a face struggle for the title pointless.

Also MOTHERFUCKING DUSTY RHODES.

[Theo Dious]

Best Dusty moment EVARZ:

[Theo Dious]

Wow, WWE.com is showing Bryan's custom "YES YES YES" side-plates. If this is a quick swerve they're going all-out.

[Theo Dious]

Where the fuck is everybody. I AM THE FACE OF TPWW DAMMIT.

[Cool King]

Here we go.

[Cool King]

Where the fuck is everybody. I AM THE FACE OF TPWW DAMMIT.

Don't worry, I'm here.

That's something, I guess.

The spoiler being "if Bryan is stripped of the title" because, quite frankly, the idea of the authoritah figures stripping a champion they just don't like totally shits all over the entire Austin/McMahon feud and makes the entire idea of a face struggle for the title pointless.

You might even call it a Dusty Finish.

[Cool King]

There we go!

Fast count.

[Cool King]

Wow, WWE.com is showing Bryan's custom "YES YES YES" side-plates. If this is a quick swerve they're going all-out.

Well at least we know he'll win the WWE title again eventually.

[Poit]

Isn't a simple explanation for the fast count just that Armstrong was still dazed from earlier?

[Cool King]

Isn't a simple explanation for the fast count just that Armstrong was still dazed from earlier?

Yeah, I was thinking that.

[#1-norm-fan]

Hah! "They got us, Daniel." I'm loving this! lol

[Theo Dious]

This is gay as hell.

[Poit]

Hey, at least he's "no longer" champion. That means he's still a 2-time champion, right?

[Cool King]

Oh, that dick Scott Armstrong.

[owenbrown]

so the title is held up? :wtf:

[Poit]

This is gay as hell.

:foc:

[GD]

I did not see this coming :)

[dronepool]

Shawn? Hmm

[Poit]

Oh, that dick Scott Armstrong.

He was the referee in the Punk/Undertaker screwjob a few years ago, wasn't he?

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the ref

[Poit]

By the way guys, Season 12 of TPWW Survivor is posted.

[Heisenberg]

Vintage Armstrong

[GD]

I want to see the new custom side plates for Daniel Bryan.

[Corndad]

Saw this coming from a mile away. Maybe will go all Battle Royal for the Title.

[slik]

Bah Gawd HHH is a evil bastard!

NOT THIS WAY!

[GD]

Atleast his second reign as WWE Champion was longer than his first.

[Corndad]

Well at least the laying out from an RKO was at the start of Raw this week.

[#1-norm-fan]

I'm interested to see what Armstrong's role in this is. Obviously he wasn't ACTUALLY paid off by Bryan to fast count. So... was he instructed to pretend it was all a conspiracy between him and Bryan to fuck with Bryan? If that's the case, why would they not just fast count Bryan instead to keep the title off of Bryan to begin with?

So confusing. lol

[slik]

Randy's Socks!

Randy's Socks!

[Savio]

7 more beatdowns to go.

[Poit]

So confusing. lol

Something something texted himself.

[Theo Dious]

At this point Daniel Bryan is basically Hugh Jackman in X-Men 3. Giving a consistently mind-blowingly good performance in the midst of an absolutely retarded story.
If this hasn't in some way worked itself out by the end of the show I will be making good on the titular threat.

[#1-norm-fan]

Something something texted himself.

Kevin Nash thwarts another vanilla midget's title reign!

[slik]

Kind of hoping this leads to a 14-man single night tournament, ala Survivor Suries: Deadly Game at BATTLEGROUND

[Theo Dious]

I'm interested to see what Armstrong's role in this is. Obviously he wasn't ACTUALLY paid off by Bryan to fast count. So... was he instructed to pretend it was all a conspiracy between him and Bryan to fuck with Bryan? If that's the case, why would they not just fast count Bryan instead to keep the title off of Bryan to begin with?

The obvious route is that the evil regime has threatened to fire him if he refuses to go along with this.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

So you can't even stick to your own promise of 19 minutes ago Tedious?

[#1-norm-fan]

No merose.

[Poit]

Damn, Stephanie just walked away with Orton's balls.

[Savio]

Orton should have DDT'd Steph right there

[Cool King]

Judging by everyone's posts, I can't help but think that my stream is a bit behind.

[#1-norm-fan]

Well there you have it. This night is gonna end with Orton handcuffing Big Show to the ropes and then kissing an unconscious Daniel Bryan.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Cactus Clothesline!

[#1-norm-fan]

lol. I love JBL. Disgusted by Daniel Bryan's actions.

[Poit]

I wonder how many kids at home are asking their parents what "abeyance" means.

[#1-norm-fan]

How long does one stay in a doghouse? I'm kinda sick of Ziggler jobbing like a dirty jobber. He was being handled so well!

[Heisenberg]

HHH should of dropkicked the shit out of Orton for that outburst!!!! Damn Him!!!

[Theo Dious]

So you can't even stick to your own promise of 19 minutes ago Tedious?

I don't recall saying that I was going to stop watching the show as soon as it happened. I've already watched tonight. Get some language comprehension skills.

[el bobbo]

Top-rope butterfly suplex. Noice.

[Poit]

I'm really not into this match, and given who's in it, this upsets me.

[#1-norm-fan]

lol. All those references to Lawler's heart attack during those elbows.

[slik]

Good match

[#1-norm-fan]

YES! You get out of that fucking doghouse, Ziggler!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Now he's done something recently to actually deserve the title shot he got last night.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Awkward.

[Cool King]

Why mention that he's still US Champion?

We all know it was a non-title match.

[#1-norm-fan]

lol. Was that announcement from Justin Roberts necessary?

[Emperor Smeat]

really random announcement by Justin Roberts

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Maybe they thought they were popping too much and they thought the fans were confused.

[Poit]

Why mention that he's still US Champion?

We all know it was a non-title match.

They sometimes announce that after a non-title match during commercial. Maybe they just cut to the back too late or something?

[Cool King]

Ahh, I didn't know they did that.

Well yeah, that's probably why.

[#1-norm-fan]

The Paul-rus.

... Not bad, Lawler. 6/10

[Cool King]

I'm not really a fan of Lawler calling Heyman "The Paulrus".

Sounds stupid.

[Cool King]

The Paul-rus.

... Not bad, Lawler. 6/10

Oooh conflict!

[Theo Dious]

Oh look, it's the human wastes of air time, Fandango and some cunt.

[Cool King]

Hey, Fandango's light thingy is back.

[#1-norm-fan]

Damn. After Fandango was nursing his leg after the Miz match last night I was hoping they'd start a comically dramatic storyline where Fandango can no longer dance.

[el bobbo]

Jesus Christ, Summer Rae has some legs on her.

[#1-norm-fan]

Oooh conflict!

I should have clarified. I'm judging it as a 2013 Jerry Lawler joke.

[Cool King]

Jesus Christ, Summer Rae has some legs on her.

Shame about her face though.

[Poit]

I should have clarified. I'm judging it as a 2013 Jerry Lawler joke.

The cream of the crap, if you will.

[#1-norm-fan]

Though I can see a crowd chanting "Paul-rus" at Heyman. Sounds like something that could stick.

[Cool King]

I should have clarified. I'm judging it as a 2013 Jerry Lawler joke.

Ahh I see.

That changes everything.

[Wake Up Call]

Why would they cut to commercial with Fandango? Wanting people to turn to MNF?

[#1-norm-fan]

Michael Cole just learned the work "abeyance" during the first commercial break.

[Theo Dious]

Shame about her face though.

Yeah but Maryse is hot, right. :roll:

[Poit]

I'll be honest. Until a couple years ago, I mispronounced abeyance like Cole did.

[Theo Dious]

Why would they cut to commercial with Fandango? Wanting people to turn to MNF?

The Steelers are playing. That's going to happen anyway.

[#1-norm-fan]

SUCK IT, TRUTH!

Fandago and Ziggler win the first two matches clean. I am in favor of these two things happening on a weekly basis.

[el bobbo]

Shame about her face though.

I'm watching a blurry stream, so I'm good right now.

[Innovator]

AMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

DREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMM

[Aikido]

Aww man, Minorities love The American Dream.......

[Cool King]

Yeah but Maryse is hot, right. :roll:

Is she?

[Wake Up Call]

The Steelers are playing. That's going to happen anyway.

But what about them doing "what's best for business" :shifty:

[Innovator]

WOOOOOOOOOOOO THE SON OF A PLUMBER

[Innovator]

TALKING ABOUT HISSSSSSSSSSSSS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONIFYOUWILLDADDY

[Cool King]

Real names ahoy!

[Poit]

Dusty's forehead bothers me.

[Innovator]

Who the fuck is trying to what the Dream?

[Cool King]

The same people that were bowing to him just seconds earlier, it seems.

[owenbrown]

what the fuck happened to Dusty?

[Theo Dious]

Did he just say Cody was a 4 time world champion?

[Poit]

"I heard there is a business proposition on the tweet."

:lol:

[Aikido]

I'm sorry...But when was Cody A 4-Time Wolrd Champion??

[Theo Dious]

Also Stephanie has no personality anymore.

[Theo Dious]

I'm sorry...But when was Cody A 4-Time Wolrd Champion??

Clearly he left out the "tag team" part but still.

[#1-norm-fan]

what the fuck happened to Dusty?

He's lost weight. It appears he has been dining on less pork and beans as of late.

[owenbrown]

wow

[Cool King]

Also Stephanie has no personality anymore.

Still doesn't stop her from being hot.

[#1-norm-fan]

LOL! Bed Bath and Beyond gift card! Fucking awesome!

[owenbrown]

Also Stephanie has no personality anymore.

would you like her to be whiny brat Stephanie again?

[#1-norm-fan]

Stephanie has been fucking awesome during this run. "That's where they were registered. Well if THIS is how this is gonna go..."

[Cool King]

Goldust vs Cody.

[#1-norm-fan]

Wasn't Goldust not even employed by the company before he came back to fight for Cody's job? Should this choice not be obvious?

[Innovator]

Steph, let Dusty do his thing

[owenbrown]

Dusty forget how to promo?

[#1-norm-fan]

What about Raven?

[Theo Dious]

would you like her to be whiny brat Stephanie again?

That was at least somewhat entertaining and not mind-numbingly boring. This Stephanie is like someone took about 30% of Vince's personality and put it into a woman.

[owenbrown]

Show gonna knock out Dusty?

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Dusty randomly emphasizing "hell"

[Cool King]

"Big Show, punch Dusty in the face."

[Theo Dious]

One thing I am looking forward to out of this shithole storyline is the point where the Shield gets sick of being toadies and goes nuts on HHH & Co.

[Theo Dious]

:lol: Dusty randomly emphasizing "hell"

Not very familiar with his body of work are you.

[Theo Dious]

Also WTF JBL unable to figure out what's going on.

[#1-norm-fan]

Big Show's facial expressions are pretty great.

[Cool King]

Damn, "Big Show, knock him out!"

So close to "Big Show, punch Dusty in the face".

[#1-norm-fan]

LOL. Did Show just say "Get the fuck out of the ring!"?

[owenbrown]

Show get bleeped?

[el bobbo]

I just laughed out loud during that punch. I don't think that's the reaction they were going for.

[Innovator]

A lot less happened two years ago when everyone walked out on HHH

[Cool King]

They should have played this as Big Show was laying Dusty down.

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/zmbw8OycJrE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[#1-norm-fan]

I have to say... I kinda want the WWE title to go up in a tournament or battle royal and for Big Show to be the surprise winner. Would "shake things up" if you will.

[Theo Dious]

A lot less happened two years ago when everyone walked out on HHH

Which brings me to another point: if HHH would come out and say that he's acting like a giant douche because of that little episode this would at least make sense.

[Cool King]

LOL. Did Show just say "Get the fuck out of the ring!"?

Maybe I missed that. I didn't hear it. :-\

[#1-norm-fan]

Maybe I missed that. I didn't hear it. :-\

They censored a word when The Shield came in the ring and Show stopped them and it sounded like "No! Get the ____ out of the ring!"

[#1-norm-fan]

Before Show grabbed him, I thought for a split second that Dusty was just gonna no sell the K.O. punch. lol

[Theo Dious]

lol The Rhodes family is going to teach Show how to live the American Dream.

[el bobbo]

Alicia Fox is a heel again... fuck, I don't even know anymore with any of these Divas.

[BigCrippyZ]

Just saw a local ad for RAW in Nashville on Nov 18th with WWE Champion Daniel Bryan and World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio

[Poit]

So, after Layla, Aksana, and Alicia Fox announced they're no longer AJ's minions, they're staying together?

And where the hell is Kaitlyn?

[BigCrippyZ]

They should have a miniature clone of Natalya ala Chyna/The Kat. They could call her Natty Lite

[Cool King]

I don't like this current AJ. Since her "pipe bomb", she's just been sounding like a gigantic whiny bitch, and I'm not just saying that because of my dislike of AJ.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

lol continuing with the fallacy AJ is jealous of the Total Divas Show. Does anybody anywhere believe that?

[#1-norm-fan]

Alicia Fox is a heel again... fuck, I don't even know anymore with any of these Divas.

And Brie Bella... is a face?

I don't know what the fuck is going on with these bitches anymore.

[Poit]

How could AJ have possibly disconnected Natalya's headset? That makes no sense!

[Savio]

Love Naomi's outfit

[Emperor Smeat]

And where the hell is Kaitlyn?

Injured I think.

[Cool King]

And where the hell is Kaitlyn?

I know, right!?

[Poit]

And Brie Bella... is a face?

The Bellas are heel members of a face stable.

[Poit]

Injured I think.

:(

[BigCrippyZ]

The Bellas are heel members of a face stable.

What? I'm so confused as to what's going on in this storyline.

[Cool King]

Injured I think.

That makes me sad.

Even more sad that I've just chosen her for TPWW Survivor.

[#1-norm-fan]

The Bellas are heel members of a face stable.

Well that's less confusing.

[Wake Up Call]

Which brings me to another point: if HHH would come out and say that he's acting like a giant douche because of that little episode this would at least make sense.

You bitch lots hey?

[Theo Dious]

lol continuing with the fallacy AJ is jealous of the Total Divas Show. Does anybody anywhere believe that?

She's not jealous of the show. She's indignant that a bunch of wannabe TV star cunts get all this spotlight while she, the champion, gets sleighted.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I don't like this current AJ. Since her "pipe bomb", she's just been sounding like a gigantic whiny bitch, and I'm not just saying that because of my dislike of AJ.

As a CM Punk fan you have an obligation to be a fan of things he likes and one of those things is AJ Lee.

[Savio]

Alicia Fox is a heel again... fuck, I don't even know anymore with any of these Divas.

And Brie Bella... is a face?

I don't know what the fuck is going on with these bitches anymore.
lol Alicia was Face last night heel tonight.....lol too funny.

[slik]

Pretty near 99.99999999999% positive we will see the following match at Survivor Series:


HHH

v.

The Big Show

[Theo Dious]

You bitch lots hey?

If you're one of the masses who considers a lack of willingness to accept mediocrity to be bitching, then yeah.

[Cool King]

As a CM Punk fan you have an obligation to be a fan of things he likes and one of those things is AJ Lee.

What? No I don't.

[Theo Dious]

What? I'm so confused as to what's going on in this storyline.

AJ is a heel, every other Diva is a face.

[Poit]

What? I'm so confused as to what's going on in this storyline.

The cast of Total Divas is effectively a face stable - at least, that's what's being pushed in the storyline. They're trying to make AJ the heel in this, but it's kinda hard to buy, IMO.

[Theo Dious]

So yes you just saw a face vs face tag match. You're welcome.

[Poit]

lol Alicia was Face last night heel tonight.....lol too funny.

Wait, when did she turn face?

[Cool King]

lol Alicia was Face last night heel tonight.....lol too funny.

Honestly speaking, she must hold some sort of world record for the most heel to face changes in a pro-wrestling career.

[BigCrippyZ]

Before Show grabbed him, I thought for a split second that Dusty was just gonna no sell the K.O. punch. lol

Maybe Dusty was told he can no longer safely take bumps like Edge, Foley, etc.

[Theo Dious]

The cast of Total Divas is effectively a face stable - at least, that's what's being pushed in the storyline. They're trying to make AJ the heel in this, but it's kinda hard to buy, IMO.

Probably because, to a wrestling fan, the idea that the wrestling champion should be admired above the reality show attention whores makes her sympathetic and not the other way around.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Why didn't he cash in after that Van Terminator? Is he going to explain it? He's supposed to be brilliant. His gimmick is a fraud.

[#1-norm-fan]

"Money in the Bank"? More like "jobber in the ring". Am I right?

[el bobbo]

lol Alicia was Face last night heel tonight.....lol too funny.

Are the Total Divas supposed to be heel or face, or is there a mix between all of them?

[Cool King]

Ever since Lock Jaw mentioned his dislike of Rob Van Dam, I can't help but think of Lock Jaw whenever I see Rob Van Dam now.

[Poit]

So yes you just saw a face vs face tag match. You're welcome.

No. We saw a face vs. heel tag match. The heels just don't like the other heel in the storyline.

Like how Heyman & Triple H are both heels.

[Wake Up Call]

If you're one of the masses who considers a lack of willingness to accept mediocrity to be bitching, then yeah.

Raw for the last month or so has been the best it's been in years. I don't see anything mediocre about it. Please explain so I may make a fair judgement

[slik]

Really hoping Tugboat returns and teams up with Tensai to take the tag belts from The Shield.

[Poit]

Wrong music. :lol:

[Cool King]

Hallelujah! Rob Van Dam won!

[Savio]

Wait, when did she turn face?
Well i guess it wasn't a full turn but she told AJ she wasn't buying her shit any more. Then tonight she was doing heel tactics in the match.

[BigCrippyZ]

Wrong music. :lol:

For a second I thought I was crazy. :lol:

[Poit]

Well i guess it wasn't a full turn but she told AJ she wasn't buying her shit any more. Then tonight she was doing heel tactics in the match.

So, as I said, she was a heel who doesn't get along with another heel.

EVIL IS NOT MONOLITHIC.

[slik]

Def. #TeamOrton in that match.

[#1-norm-fan]

Seriously, why do you have a guy win Money in the Bank, which is regarded as practically a lock to be cashed in for the WHC... and then decide to just start jobbing him out constantly even to other jobbers on Superstars/Main Event???

Where is the logic in it? I desperately want to talk to someone in WWE creative who has seen MITB winners constantly job, cash in and then have shitty title reigns because they'd been de-pushed so bad going in and ask them how the fuck that works out as a positive for anyone involved.

[Theo Dious]

Hallelujah! Rob Van Dam won!

Looks like Rob shouldn't have shared his weed with the sound truck guys.

[Theo Dious]

Seriously, why do you have a guy win Money in the Bank, which is regarded as practically a lock to be cashed in for the WHC... and then decide to just start jobbing him out constantly even to other jobbers on Superstars/Main Event???

Where is the logic in it?

Sandow perpetually jobbed prior to winning MITB. He won MITB in a total pussy punkout way. Why should carrying the briefcase mean he suddenly wins? He's a cowardly heel who took a shortcut to a guaranteed title match and will likely cash it in in cowardly fashion. Seriously did you eat lead paint chips as a child that you can't figure that out???

[#1-norm-fan]

Tedious is not a real person. There's just no way. Good God, look at this thread.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

It creates instant challengers and contenders for the title. No need to explain why they are fighting for the title since they recently beat the guy.

According to former creative team members, it's Vince who believes that viewers don't or won't remember or care about win/losses, pushes as it relates to overness and popularity, etc.

[#1-norm-fan]

You know how you build up a guy to be a champion? Make it seem like he can't win a match against anyone in any way, shape or form.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

He's only worked for the WWE since ECW revival. 20 years bullshit.

[rockman725]

Sandow not cashing in last night when Del Rio was taken out makes me believe that he will not be the one cashing in that case. I fully expect Cody to gain the case by the end of the year.

[Cool King]

Road Dogg is going to be pissed.

[Emperor Smeat]

That might have been the calmest firing of someone in RAW history.

[Savio]

They are promoting TLC which is 3 months away instead of the PPV which is 3 weeks away.

[Theo Dious]

Raw for the last month or so has been the best it's been in years. I don't see anything mediocre about it. Please explain so I may make a fair judgement

We seem to have a serious difference of opinion. For the past month Raw has been predictable and boring as hell. I'd be interested in knowing how long you've actually been watching wrestling, just to see if all of this doesn't strike you as incredibly boring and rehashed. The end of every Raw since Summerslam has been predictable- and has, in fact, been predicted on these boards. Bryan being stripped of the title was predicted within SECONDS of his title win yesterday. I'd like to see them take things in a creative direction instead of doing evul boss vs good guy part 56.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Triple H channeling the ghost of Tony Soprano in that promo.

[Theo Dious]

That might have been the calmest firing of someone in RAW history.

What do you expect from a referee?

[#1-norm-fan]

It creates instant challengers and contenders for the title. No need to explain why they are fighting for the title since they recently beat the guy.

That would leave a shitload of "instant challengers" for Sandow since he's lost to so many guys. It's not impressive. I'm pretty sure R-Truth won't become an "instant challenger" for the WHC when Sandow wins it based on him being one of the many guys who beat him when he had the case.

[Theo Dious]

For the love of fuck... they just played an ad for gummi bears followed by an ad for a movie whose central plot point involves porno.

[Cool King]

He's only worked for the WWE since ECW revival. 20 years bullshit.

Well he did work for WCW, which is owned by the WWE, in 1992 until it's death in 2001, so maybe that's what Triple H was talking about.

That would be 17 years all together, but rounding it off to 20 isn't a serious crime.

[BigCrippyZ]

It creates instant challengers and contenders for the title. No need to explain why they are fighting for the title since they recently beat the guy.

That's only impressive and works if both guys don't then continually go on to loose to other guys, especially jobbers.

[DrCrawford]

hahaha his dad's chins

[Poit]

They are promoting TLC which is 3 months away instead of the PPV which is 3 weeks away.

They always briefly promote a PPV shortly before tickets go on sale. It's nothing to complain about.

[Hanso Amore]

Miz' parents are hilarious looking

I wonder what maryse says about them

[GD]

Random "Punt kick" / "Punk him" chants.

[Cool King]

The Miz's dad seriously looks like the guy who owns the comic book shop over here.

[Poit]

Bryan being stripped of the title was predicted within SECONDS of his title win yesterday.

Oh come the fuck on. Of course it was predicted, because it was one of the directions they could have gone. This is the internet. There are tons of predictions.

[Savio]

This reminds me of the Dud Love/Stone Cold feud where Vince told Mick to show his extreme side against Funk

[Hanso Amore]

Like oh hey this is my super model fiancé and here is my mullet parents

[Savio]

lol "yes yes yes"

[BigCrippyZ]

Were those two chicks on the end Miz's sisters or something? They were pretty hot from what I could tell.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I hope they do something where Daniel Bryan wins the WWE Title every time he gets a chance, only to have them try and find a way to screw him. Dude is a legit two-time WWE Champion at this point. Might as well have him win a one-night tournament at Battleground.

Daniel Bryan
Randy Orton

CM Punk
Ryback

Surely Big Show would be in there too.

[dronepool]

That was ECW esque brutal. Nice.

[el bobbo]

Good. He's going to kill Miz.

[#1-norm-fan]

That's only impressive and works if both guys don't then continually go on to loose to other guys, especially jobbers.

Seriously. When a guy is losing to guys like Santino and R-Truth, it's not like getting a win over him is gonna catapult you to the title scene. The guy is a jobber in every sense of the word right now. He can't even cheat his way to beat other jobbers. And he's in line to be WHC???

[Theo Dious]

So are they getting rid of the PG shit?

[Theo Dious]

Oh come the fuck on. Of course it was predicted, because it was one of the directions they could have gone. This is the internet. There are tons of predictions.

Give me a break. That was the one everyone said would happen and it did.

[Cool King]

So are they getting rid of the PG shit?

Well we did have a "Bastard" from Stephanie tonight.

Jesus. If I were a wrestler, I'd probably just feign injury when there's a show coming up in my hometown. It never turns out well.

I've noticed WWE requires all wrestlers who wear trunks to wear black underwear under their tights.

I keep thinking to myself 'how did that memo go? Was there a company wide meeting to discuss the allotted color of underwear'

The old school Ric Flair "accidental ass crack shot" is not PG.

WTF "requires?" What are you basing this on? Maybe everyone has a similar opinion that it's the way to go?

[dronepool]

Isn't there different levels of PG? Like some shows can *amp it up a bit* and stay PG?

Checking out the WWE title on Wikipedia during the break, and some guy has edited the page to make himself WWE Champion.

La Nariz is obviously a future Hall of Famer with those nine WWE Title reigns.

[#1-norm-fan]

lol. Now go away Curtis Axel. You are useless.

[DrCrawford]

I don't understand why they have those weird picture recaps with audio. Why not just cut up the actual video and show that? It looks bad.

[BigCrippyZ]

Give me a break. That was the one everyone said would happen and it did.

So what? It works and well to get heat and build up a face for a title feud/chase.

A swerve for the sake of a swerve is WCW/TNA level stupidity and creativity.

[slik]

No Curtis Axel.

Hmmm.

[Hanso Amore]

La nariz is Spanish for nose aka hhh

[Cool King]

Heyman using Vickie's wheelchair from 2007.

[Hanso Amore]

So that's a pretty funny change

[Cool King]

I need to learn Spanish.

[Hanso Amore]

Beat you to it

[Poit]

Give me a break. That was the one everyone said would happen and it did.

There are so many things that could have happened. They could have stripped Bryan of the title. They could have done an "it never happened" thing. They could have done a Bryan heel turn. They could have done an unwilling corporate champion thing, with Triple H picking Bryan as the new face of the WWE and Bryan not wanting his help. Etc.

"The Nose"

My post about Triple H's nose has been held in abeyance.

Swerve for the- what the fuck are you talking about. Being creative and coming up with something that makes sense isn't a swerve for the sake of a swerve. Doing something different instead of doing the same old predictable horseshit is called GOOD WRITING.

[Savio]

yeah what Hanso said

[GD]

Heyman acknowledging the "Goldberg" chants.

[dronepool]

Ryback vs Lesnar for Heymans love at WM30

[Hanso Amore]

Ryback would have been a massive star in the original ecw

[slik]

Ryback hates Bullies.

Shisen and Ryback have a lot in common.

[Cool King]

Ryback sounds like he's saying "Bowley" when he says "Bully".

[Poit]

Gay.

[Rollermacka]

Ryback sounds like he's saying "Bowley" when he says "Bully".

Yea Ryback, I hate bowleys too... :roll:

[slik]

Don't denigrate Brock Lesnar like that.

[Poit]

Heyman is apparently into big leather daddies.

[DrCrawford]

Awkward

[#1-norm-fan]

lol. Ryback/Heyman bromance is awesome already.

[Hanso Amore]

When did they cut feed me more out of rybacks music?

[dronepool]

It sounds better without it. It's a cool riff.

[Hanso Amore]

Ryback sounds like he's saying "Bowley" when he says "Bully".

Big Bowley busick

[#1-norm-fan]

Ryback vs Lesnar for Heymans love at WM30

Should have happened at 29 :nono:

[Cool King]

Gay.

I missed that as I was typing about Bowleys.

[el bobbo]

I am so ready for Los Matadores.

[Emperor Smeat]

Gay.

I'm actually looking forward to Los Matadores.

[BigCrippyZ]

I wonder if Heyman came up with the homo-erotic loving father figure as manager role for himself.
