"Dean Titty Master Ambrose"

Sign of the Year right there.

I was a fan of the "bring back brooke #thatass" sign myself lol

Are there any videos of the new Bo Dallas promos anywhere yet?

[Asmo]

Are there any videos of the new Bo Dallas promos anywhere yet?

Found one on WWE's YouTube page:

Of all the NXT call ups, I'm surprised they didn't bring up Corey Graves..

He got injured over the weekend.

Bo Dallas as an overly positive heel will be great. He should pick up Ryder as a "protege", try to teach him not to be so negative all the time.

Crazy that they're bringing Rose up already. Two appearances on NXT under that gimmick. Can't wait though.

Rusev was fine. He'll get the Ryback/squash match treatment. I'll be bored til he gets an actual feud.

Paige is great. She looks different, she sounds different. She looked a little uncomfortable though. And the Paige Turner is an awful finisher performed well or not.

HHH vs. Bryan and Shield vs. Kane, Orton & Batista would both be great matches for Extreme Rules.

[XL]

Oh, big "meh" to RVD.

[Heisenberg]

I was spoiled getting to watch Bad News Barrett wrestle a few weeks ago at a house show, but I still pumped up for his RAW return.

I hope his reaction stays, he was booed when I saw him, I felt like the only fan supporting him. I see a main eventer in him, others just wanted to see Sheamus and twist their pubes up and try to pull them out all at the same time.

[Crippla]

Good Raw in my opinion. Always love the Raw after WrestleMania!

[Heisenberg]

I spit my drink out for Bo Dallas, I've only seen that gimmick sans that Rumble appearance, has he had that gimmick for awhile or did they recently just amplify it? I love it. Positive heel is what I strive for in real life.

[Innovator]

Leo Kruger spent 4 years in developmental as either "South African guy" or "kinda big game hunter guy". He spent a month as Adam Rose and is getting called up.

It just dawned on me watching the Bo Dallas video how the Rotunda boys' gimmicks are about as night and day as you can get.

"I'm so positive that it's a gimmick" vs. "The world is awful, dark and full of lies"

Any interaction between them now that Bo is gonna be on the main roster is gonna be incredible for that reason alone.

[Volare]

Heyman says Cesaro is the next big thing and to challenge his words....I just came.

[Rammsteinmad]

Paige is overrated.

[rob11]

I missed Raw due to work but saw it overnight and thought it was one of the best Raw's in years and I'm not saying it reminded me of the "attitude era", because that is lame, but it reminded me of what the combination of good booking and a hot crowd can still do.

[rob11]

Paul Heyman being able to cut an amazing heel promo then come out a hour later as a babyface is a tribute to how talented he is.

[rob11]

I doubt the "Cena Sucks" sing along will succeed like "you suck" with Angle but it would be funny if it kept happening in some areas aka Chicago.

[whiteyford]

Poor Ziggler, what a difference a year makes.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the crowd during the Wyatts vs Cena/Sheamus/Big E. Match itself was good.

:D Paige's debut. :eek: Cesaro as the new Paul Heyman guy.

The Shield vs Authority standoff was awesome. Going to be an amazing stable war between Trips and Bryan.

Raw was great tonight.

True but they are both heels so it might not happen. I hope it does.

[Fignuts]

Is Dean Ambrose still the US champion?

[ron the dial]

yep

[GD]

Bo Dallas should come out to "Don't stop Bo-lieving".

[GD]

Wonder if Daniel Bryan would ever come out to "Final Countdown" theme in the WWE.

[whiteyford]

Was half expecting it at 'Mania.

[CSL]

Paige is overrated.

in what sense? Because she can work her tits off as far as the girls are concerned and she's hot as balls

[whiteyford]

The internet is great.

[GD]

Is Dean Ambrose still the US champion?

I didn't see the belt on Monday. Signs of things to come :yes:

[BigCrippyZ]

Everyone seems to be high on Roman Reigns and no doubt he's the superb athlete of the group and they all are solid but I feel like Ambrose is far and away the best on the mic out of the Shield.

[Rammsteinmad]

In the sense that I don't see in her what others do. Sorry if that offends ya. Just my opinion. :kiss:

[CSL]

lol it doesn't offend me, I was just wondering what you meant since she seems an odd "target"

[Emperor Smeat]

Raw's viewership and ratings ended up being the highest since the 100th episode (viewers) and the highest post-Mania episode since Mania 27 (ratings).

[owenbrown]

This hype video was outstanding.... why the fuck doesn't the WWE have like a wall of Emmys for their video production?!

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/8_ik56p6UH8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Droford]

The emmys should have a category for sports entertainment

[el bobbo]

Everyone seems to be high on Roman Reigns and no doubt he's the superb athlete of the group and they all are solid but I feel like Ambrose is far and away the best on the mic out of the Shield.

And Rollins is the best in ring of the group. Roman has that "it" factor. He's a huge dude, by today's wrestling standards.

[Curd]

"The One" Brock Lesnar? What is WWE thinking? That tagline didn't work for Billy Gunn. It doesn't fit Lesnar, either.

[Tazz Dan]

RVD. Nuff said.

[Corndad]

That Warrior promo is so haunting now.

[Corndad]

Got to watch the Backstage Pass from past Raw tonight and man that Bryan speech almost brought tears man. Great stuff. Passionate and real talk. Could really tell the reaction he's getting is affecting him.

[Shadrick]

where? i cant find it on youtube

[Corndad]

where? i cant find it on youtube

It's on the Network. Im not sure if will make way to Youtube or not with copyright stuff so tough since Network was put up but if you can somehow see it. Totally worth it. The Doc they did following him around was tremendous as well.

[Shadrick]

Oooo okay, thanks man. I've got the network, i'll check it out

[Tom Guycott]

Wonder if Daniel Bryan would ever come out to "Final Countdown" theme in the WWE.

I thought about that before, with "YES" cut in on the 1 beats.

[parkmania]

If Vince isn't willing to shell out the bucks, maybe Jim Johnston could come up with a knockoff and call it "The Final YES-down".

[XL]

It's on the Network. Im not sure if will make way to Youtube or not with copyright stuff so tough since Network was put up but if you can somehow see it. Totally worth it. The Doc they did following him around was tremendous as well.

It's out there, if you know where to look.

Most of the Network stuff is; Pre-show, Backstage Pass, HOF, that show about Bryan's road to Mania, Countdown, WrestleMania Rewind, NXT, Main Event.

[DaVe]

Here is something that nobody notices. Randy Orton at 6 ft 5 inches looks taller than Batista at 6 ft 6 inches

http://i.imgur.com/knQ3d2K.jpg

Definitely noticed that when Batista returned. He looks like he's shrunk and lost 50 lbs.

[James Steele]

Orton wrestles in thick soled boots while Batista wrestles in high top Jordans covered in kickpads.
