[el bobbo]

[Corndad]

Heyman is loving the shit out of this

[dronepool]

FUCK YEA

[GD]

Lesnar needs to beat the living daylights out of everyone in the ring.

[#1-norm-fan]

Would have been kinda hilarious if the go home show to SummerSlam just ended with Nash singing Happy Birthday to Hogan. lol

[mhirn3]

Don't you just hate it when you can't open a carton of milk.


YES!

I prefer the ginsu knives.

[Corndad]

Mr Wonderful has no idea where he is right now.

[Dark One]

Some old guys about to get turned into dust.

[Crimson]

Hahaha. Love this

[#1-norm-fan]

Lesnar is gonna F-5 Orndorff's stache.

[Crimson]

Damnit Cena. Get the hell outta there

[Wishbone]

Cena just pooped the party

[Corndad]

Piper so wants to jump in right now

[Hanso Amore]

Kind of wish sting showed up for the celebration

[mhirn3]

What's the wwe network?

[Dark One]

Kind of wish sting showed up for the celebration

MAYBE HE'LL SHOW UP ON THE NETWORK! SPEND 9.99 TO FIND OUT!

He won't show up.

[Wishbone]

Oh, well thank god we can tune into the network to finish seeing Hogan and friends jerk each other off.

[Savio]

He poster Mercenary?

[Cool King]

WWE Network Count: 31

[Cool King]

I could be a little off with that count though.

[RVDmark]

And then you go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like I'm a mercenary.

[Cool King]

Oh, well thank god we can tune into the network to finish seeing Hogan and friends jerk each other off.

Ew.

[RVDmark]

WWE Network Count: 31

But how much does it cost, WHY WONT YOU TELL ME!

[Dark One]

SLATER GATOR ON THE NETWORK.

GERTNER THIS IS WORTH 9.99

[Dark One]

SHUT UP EVERYONE.

SLATER GATOR.

[Corndad]

Slater already owning this party on the network.

[Crimson]

Lol @ Heymans look after Brock screamed he's a mercenary.

[Dark One]

[Corndad]

The Candles are 9.99 LOL

[Sepholio]

Not gonna lie, really wish Kevin Nash would hit Lesnar with the big boot.

[Sepholio]

Prob woulda tore his quad though.

[#1-norm-fan]

Can't wait for Paul Orndorff's birthday party on Raw in a couple months.

[Lock Jaw]

I kinda want to see Kevin Nash do his comedic manager/advisor shtick in WWE.

[Corndad]

Commentary just got taken out with Confetti lol

[Dark One]

They may have gone a little overboard with confetti.

[mhirn3]

I love that cole called them "slater and the gator"

[Dark One]

I kinda want to see Kevin Nash do his comedic manager/advisor shtick in WWE.

I'd pay at least 9.99 to see Kevin Nash try to turn Heath Slater into WWE Champion.

[#1-norm-fan]

I love that cole called them "slater and the gator"

Now there's a great name for a corny 80s sitcom.

AVAILABLE ONLY ON THE WWE NETWORK FOR 9.99 A MONTH?

[Mercenary]

He poster Mercenary?

heh?

[Dark One]

This "Summerslam Prelude" is pretty great. They should do more of these, but I guess it takes a particular type of guy for it to really work.

[road doggy dogg]

oh hey look more 9.99 jokes

[Bad News Gertner]

If you love Slater Gator, make sure you vote for me for King of the Forum!

Slater Gator baby!

[ron the dial]

cooperate kane

[DAMN iNATOR]

If you don't like the content of the segment, that's one thing.

Are you really upset at Raw ending with a segment as opposed to a random thrown together match with an outcome that means nothing though?

Also, Raw ending in a segment to build a story and not a match has happened a lot. For like... a couple decades now.

I wouldn't be nearly so upset if this wasn't the time building to a SummerSlam or any of the other "Big 4" PPVs, but they've wasted the other two on Brie vs. Steph. I would have no problem with it being done so much had they been using the time to promote Brock v. Cena. God forbid they use it to promote the main event of a major PPV.

As for tonight, at least they teased at it, but still, I feel like more could have been done...FFS, have Brock pick up Hogan as if he was about to F-5 him, THEN, instead of having Cena race down to the ring and stare him down, have Brock put Hogan down, end with a brawl, and once the show goes off the air let Hogan have his party.

Just for the record, I'd like to make it perfectly clear I have no problem with a legendary guy like Hogan being honored on his birthday. Hell, in today's world with all the new diseases and illnesses that have cropped up recently, 61 years is remarkable. I just think they could have had the main event of SSlam hype in that time and devote 15-20 minutes beforehand for Hogan's party. That way you have your main event being promoted the way it should, and also those who don't have the network would've been able to see all of the celebration in its entirety.

[road doggy dogg]

Living to 61 is not a remarkable feat.


(For a wrestler, sadly is actually is, but that's not what you stated)

[Dark One]

I know this is saying the same thing again and again, but Paul Heyman is incredible. In the Summerslam Prelude to come up with a way to convey the magnitude of Brock Lesnar breaking the streak to people who may not be hardcore wrestling fans:

"Forty people have held the WWE Championship. One beast has conquered the streak. So here's the analogy for you: Imagine being able to come in front of the cameras and say 'Ladies and gentlemen, I have been elected president of the United States of America.' It's a wonderful accomplishment, but around 40 men have been able to say the same thing. Now imagine being able to come out and say 'I have been elected God.'

(...)
He didn't just run for President and win. He ran for God."

[#1-norm-fan]

Hell, in today's world with all the new diseases and illnesses that have cropped up recently, 61 years is remarkable.

Well that's a weird thing to say.

[DAMN iNATOR]

I dunno, I guess maybe having someone close to me (my mother...RIP) pass away within a week and a half of turning 50, on 12/31/03, kind of influenced that particular comment a bit, and it wasn't a completely logical thought. I probably also subconciously was also thinking of all the wrestlers who have all died at tragically young ages, although as RDD has ppointed out, I flat out said 61 was remarkable for anyone, not for a wrestler. It still wouldn't have made my statement correct by a long shot but maybe it at least would have made some kind of damned sense.

I sincerely regret and apologize for the error.

[Dark One]

Well this got fucking dark real quick.

This thread needs more Mariachi Brock.

[Simple Fan]

man would really like to see a new NWO in WWE. Imagine Ziggler being the leader of it and people like Fandango, Adam Rose, Heath Slater, Sandow, and Rybaxle coming together to fight the WWE for the dumb stuff they have had to do for the last couple of years. NWO for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BuzPeXpIUAEN3SD.jpg:large

LeBella Lock. :rofl:

[Droford]

Steph's gonna ask Hunter to do that to her sometime and it won't end well.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

STD is currently having a heart attack.

Actually I was asleep during Raw. I was more pissed off about her wrestling on NXT than this.

What Dark said, Paige is now the ultimate heel for letting Eva Marie beat AJ with the old "Razor/DiBiase/123 Kid" routine.

[Seth82]

poor Paul Orndorff got like no reaction.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Obviously he shouldn't have come out to his joke WCW theme song. Should have stolen Real American again or come out to American Made.

[owenbrown]

Korporate Kane Knight

fixed :shifty:

[drave]

Kane switching back and forth is the dumbest thing ever :|

[screech]

Kane switching back and forth is the dumbest thing ever :|

Someone should shoot a fireball at his face. Fix that issue right up!

[drave]

You mean Magneto.... errrr... border patrol.... errrr...


this could go on for a while.

WWE Creative at they're best.

[Big Vic]

Unless I blinked and missed him, no Sandow on Raw this week?
Or Bo?

[#1-norm-fan]

Or Stardust or Fandango.

Clearly they need a fourth hour.

[Heisenberg]

Stardust is the goods.
