**OFFICIAL** Post-Wrestlemania Raw Thread 3/30/15

[Savio]

Brad DO SOMETHING!

[Corndad]

Brock gives no shits.

[#1-norm-fan]

No exaggeration... Brock Lesnar is one of the most awesome heels in wrestling history.

[Frank Drebin]

Book looked like Jay Lethal there

[Crimson]

Crowd shoulda gone more crazy than what I heard

[owenbrown]

That cameraman must be getting a raise

[RVDmark]

Lesnar vs Cameraman at Summerslam?

[Dark One]

I can't handle the awesomeness of the past 48 hours.

Something has to go poorly here tonight.

Or Jimmy Jacobs is the best fucking creative team member in the history of professional wrestling.

[#1-norm-fan]

lol @ Heyman just hanging out watching with his hand on his face.

[Mercenary]

BEST RAW EVER!

[dronepool]

Get JR now!

[Blonde Moment]

He needs to go on a rampage backstage taking out all the staff

[Emperor Smeat]

That was amazing and smart way to write off Brock for a while.

[Savio]

That was the best face turn ever.

[Droford]

Time for another round of nxt call ups.. Albert Corey Graves and the other guy

[RawRocks]

Holy Shit LOL

[CSL]

let's get JR out for the rest of the show

[ClockShot]

Gonna be a downer for awhile without Brock.

Ah well, here's hoping we get to see him a few more times tonight.

[Frank Drebin]

Hope this doesn't mean Lawler calls the broadcast now

[RVDmark]

Its barely worth mentioning now as it happens every week, but Heyman being absolute gold here.

[#1-norm-fan]

I wanted that to go on for 2 hours. No need to try to follow it up.

[Savio]

I hope Brock punches the building to the ground.

[Volare]

I hope Brock punches the building to the ground.

I was waiting for him to try and fuck up the set honestly. :)

[RVDmark]

I hope Brock punches the building to the ground.

Is that what makes the fireworks go off?

[KIRA]

Time for another round of nxt call ups.. Albert Corey Graves and the other guy

Replace the other guy with Regal

[Frank Drebin]

GDYC

[ClockShot]

Now's a good time to play Cesaro's theme.

[Dark One]

I hope Brock punches the building to the ground.

Poit you might want to get out of there.

The arena's about to get German Suplexed into orbit.

[The CyNick]

Enjoying RAW so far.

[Savio]

Brock Lesnar: Was I justified?

[KIRA]

really an ENTIRE RAW WHERE I DON'T HEAR COLE can it be true ? If this is a dream don't wake me up!

[Droford]

I guess he didn't get Cole

Damnit

[RVDmark]

If this means we get William Regal on commentary on Raw I might have a crisis, top gear style.

[Simple Fan]

Think Brock broke my internet connection

[OssMan]

lol no commentary tremendous

[ClockShot]

Intermission. Everyone needed a piss break sooner or later.

[road doggy dogg]

just got back from gym

PERFECT TIMING HI BROCK F5ING EVERYTHING AND ASL RENEE LOVE YOU

[Frank Drebin]

NO NOT A FINE

[KIRA]

HE GOT COLE!

I'm so happy.

[Simple Fan]

Fine the Beast?

[Mercenary]

Get Vince out There I want some old school commentary

[el bobbo]

That was an awesome pop Steph got for saying that Lesnar F5'ed Michael Cole.

[road doggy dogg]

I OWN THAT SON OF A BITCH (TV PG)

[OssMan]

Stephanie keeping it real tonight is the night

[el bobbo]

Get Vince out There I want some old school commentary

Jesse "The Body" Ventura.

[Savio]

Stephanie came off looking strong....good.... We need to make Stephanie look strong.

[Droford]

JBL vs Brock

[Frank Drebin]

How glorious/weird would it be if they just never brought anyone else out to announce?

[el bobbo]

JBL vs Brock

JBL is gonna have some fun.

[ClockShot]

'Mania is in Jerryland next year?

That big TV might cause some problems.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

S a w f t Saaaaaaaaaaawft

[Savio]

I hope they return with Mike Adamle on commentary.

[RVDmark]

How glorious/weird would it be if they just never brought anyone else out to announce?

They must be going somewhere with this, where?

[Frank Drebin]

Paul Blart......2?

[Droford]

How glorious/weird would it be if they just never brought anyone else out to announce?
How would we know how to use the app or that the WWE Network is just 9.99

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I'm expecting JBL and Booker to have recovered by the time they get back on the air. Hope not though.</font>

[Simple Fan]

We have to listen to the spanish announce team

[Dark One]

Somebody call larry zybisko

[road doggy dogg]

lol no commentary.. so good

[KIRA]

Tonight I really miss CM Punk this was his time to be on commentary

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Byron Saxton...alright then</font>

I hope they return with Mike Adamle on commentary.

"Hi, I'm Mike Adamle. In case you're just joining us, Brock Leslie was just out here..."

[road doggy dogg]

AW DAMN BYRON SAXTON

[KIRA]

Saxton????

[ClockShot]

Byron Saxton drew the short straw.

[road doggy dogg]

I'm glad Stardust has slain Ragnaros and obtained his class set

[Dark One]

We get Byron Saxton? FUCK THAT. BRING IN MORE NXT DUDES. RENEE. SOMEONE ELSE.

[KIRA]

holy crap the pop for mizdow

[Emperor Smeat]

Should have scrambled out Vince for commentary.

[Poit]

Poit you might want to get out of there.

The arena's about to get German Suplexed into orbit.

I'm too cute to be suplexed.

[Crimson]

Saxton lacks excitement

[The CyNick]

Big Show should win multiple Andre The Giant Battle Royals in a row.

[Dark One]

I knew they couldn't keep the streak of brilliant moves alive.

Byron Saxton solo calling Raw is one of my nightmares, only surpassed by Alex Riley solo calling Raw.

[Simple Fan]

Wish he would go back to Sandow soon. Feel like people have forgot his real name.

[Corndad]

I hope this ends in Lesnar F5ing Saxton and every announcer they try and throw out there.

[Droford]

I feel while this crowd is good for an ordinary raw it's a letdown for the post wm raw

[road doggy dogg]

Rhodes Scholars ASL

[Poit]

Who's announcing this?

[Poit]

I feel while this crowd is good for an ordinary raw it's a letdown for the post wm raw

Hey, fuck you buddy.

[road doggy dogg]

Who's announcing this?

Saxton :| :(

[Simple Fan]

I'm too cute to be suplexed.

First one suplexed.

[ClockShot]

Spanish Announce Team looks like they survived.

Someone put their SAP button on.

[Droford]

I hope this ends in Lesnar F5ing Saxton and every announcer they try and throw out there.

Brock just puts the headset on and starts doing commentary

[el bobbo]

This is some great announcing. It's like Vince is just telling him exactly what to say as he listens.

[Mercenary]

bring out Bushwacker Butch

[Lock Jaw]

Was eating dinner.... That Lesnar stuff was so damn good.... aside from the "camera guy" having an incredibly old looking camera on his shoulder.

Also, I dig Stardust's Mr. Sinister cape.

[owenbrown]

Byron Saxton being way too somber on commentary

[Poit]

Saxton :| :(

Alone?

[Droford]

That's it.

[Mercenary]

They're not THAT dead, Saxton

[KIRA]

Seriously put renee on commentary shes actually good at it

[Frank Drebin]

Saxton just oozing machismo

[road doggy dogg]

Alone?

si

[Dark One]

Brock just puts the headset on and starts doing commentary

"SUPLEX! SUPLEX! SUPLEX!"

[road doggy dogg]

Yeah seriously, put Renee there... she's the best

[Poit]

We need Renee and Regal.

[Crimson]

Is Saxton asleep?

[road doggy dogg]

:rant: wait 5 weeks, you'll forget about him :rant:

[Emperor Smeat]

Saxton sounds like he's waiting for someone else to speak after every time he does.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

We need Renee and Regal.

Renee and Graves should come out.

[Simple Fan]

Spanish Announce Team looks like they survived.

Someone put their SAP button on.

I did it they're still kicking.

[KIRA]

We need Renee and Regal.

THIS :love:

[RawRocks]

God Byron Saxton sucks.. would rather have Tom Phillips

[Mercenary]

Serious get Bushwhacker Butch out there

[road doggy dogg]

damn that pepperoni bra was pretty sexy... curvy-ass pizza

[owenbrown]

That Taco Bell commercial made me NOT want Taco Bell ever again

[road doggy dogg]

Saxton sucks... hasn't plugged WWE Network once

[road doggy dogg]

lol wtf, boxing with no ring

[Lock Jaw]

Was hoping when Steph was talking to Renee she would send Renee out to do commentary.

[Volare]

Oh they aren't laughing that they aren't the ones who got fucked up?

[KIRA]

OK Albert, Regal and Renee

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I hate how that Subway guy says Extra. It's like eckstrah

[Lock Jaw]

Byron Saxton describing this encounter with zero enthusiasm.

[road doggy dogg]

damn HHH grabbin' some titty

don't blame him

[Corndad]

Turn the DAMN TABLE BACK OVER!

[Fenix122]

They can't flip that table back over?

[road doggy dogg]

Byron Saxton is the Joe Buck of the WWE

[Lock Jaw]

Can they not just turn the table upright again.... or at least get Byron Saxton a seat.... did anyone even offer him a chair?

[Crimson]

Somebody give Saxton a line of coke

[Dark One]

I wonder if Byron Saxton realizes he's slowly talking his way out of employment.

[KIRA]

Did they sedate him? Jesus he's killing my wrestling boner!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Saxton is doing a terrible job. Could they really not have at least 2 people out there?

Also I'd be pretty pissed off to be stuck behind Saxton as it appears they can't be bothered to fix the table and he'll be standing all night.</font>

[Jazzy Foot]

I'm on the flight back from mania did sting and taker appear on raw?

[Frank Drebin]

Was hoping when Steph was talking to Renee she would send Renee out to do commentary.

I was hoping they'd honk each others titties

[The CyNick]

New Jonathan Coachman needs to step it up

[ClockShot]

Totally forgot Mama Beadle is superfan.

Vince should give her a job.

[Dark One]

Can they not just turn the table upright again.... or at least get Byron Saxton a seat.... did anyone even offer him a chair?

It's all that's holding Booker T's body together.

God damn I hate their shitty PR promos. These do nothing for all of the shit I've read on the dirtsheets.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I still wana know the story CM punk was gonna say about the anti-bully campaign

He already did two weeks later in Boston on Raw. He said that Vince McMahon is the biggest bully of them all.

[Jazzy Foot]

btw Nash, Roberts, Simmons, DDP, Okerlund and Zbysko were all on the same flight as me to Atlanta #wrestle_planea

[Corndad]

Ax Treme Rules HAHAHAHA I love this guy.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>YES! NEVILLE!</font>

[Crimson]

On your feet people! Axtreme Rules!

[ClockShot]

Look who's here.

[Fenix122]

NEVILLE!!!

[Droford]

Lol, it's Neville

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Oh for fuck's sake, dropping the first names again?</font>

[Lock Jaw]

They F'N did it.... they got rid of the "Adrian". Dumb.

Also gave him a stupid cape thing.

[Dark One]

I can't wait for Byron Saxton to gently whisper "red arrow."

[Fenix122]

Have no fear!!! Super Neville is here!

[Droford]

He's got a first name

[Crimson]

Neville looks like an elf

[ClockShot]

Someone else is at the table now.

[Emperor Smeat]

At least they didn't go full on Mighty Mouse with Neville's attire. Just the cape ... for now.

[Dark One]

They F'N did it.... they got rid of the "Adrian". Dumb.

Also gave him a stupid cape thing.

He can have a cape if he gets to keep his nickname and has awesome pyro.

[el bobbo]

It's Mighty Mouse.

[Frank Drebin]

1) FUCK YEAH NEVILLE

2) Lol they actually did drop his first name...good gravy

[road doggy dogg]

these guys both look like huge goofs

[road doggy dogg]

"Watch this, folks. Watch what's about to happen now."

[Crimson]

Seriously, Saxton needs to wake the fuck up

[Fenix122]

Is Finn Balor just going to be Balor?

[Simple Fan]

Well Neville putting an end to Axelmania.

[road doggy dogg]

that elf has some great moves

[KIRA]

Going to the main Roster strips you of a first name. Saxton putting Neville over with the same enthusiasm you'd find at a wake. We were better off with no one announcing.

[Corndad]

Booker and JBL have to be recovered by now.

[Droford]

Not wrestling with the mouthpiece anymore either

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Whooooooo!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Saxton can't possibly be this bad can he? He's seemed fine on SmackDown and years ago on ECW.

Maybe they want him to sound disoriented and terrible so we'll be happy when Cole and company return.</font>

[Lock Jaw]

Neville is just the worst name. Adrian Neville at least sounds "plausible", but no one would ever only go by "Neville".

[Dark One]

Jesus Christ. Someone save us from Saxton.

This is the fucking worst. "Neville" hits a fucking Red Arrow and he just quietly goes "wow" afterwards.

POIT! DUDE! COME ON. YOU'LL GET KICKED OUT, BUT YOU WILL BE A HERO.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Seriously, Saxton needs to wake the fuck up

He's supposed to be subdued. His friends are hurt.

[#1-norm-fan]

lol Why would they think putting Byron Saxton out there by himself was a good idea? Jesus. Is there NO ONE who could at least do some color commentary to help him out in the back?

[road doggy dogg]

I wonder if one of the commentators' bump was more serious than intended... Vince or HHH or someone has GOT to be shitting bricks with how dreadful Saxton is doing right now

[Frank Drebin]

Saxton literally making me sleepy

[Volare]

Tyler Breeze needs to show up now and accept Cena's challenge!!

[RawRocks]

FOR FUCKS SAKE.. GET RID OF BYRON SAXTON.

[Dark One]

<font color=goldenrod>Saxton can't possibly be this bad can he? He's seemed fine on SmackDown and years ago on ECW.

Maybe they want him to sound disoriented and terrible so we'll be happy when Cole and company return.</font>

Not a live show and he has other people to badger him.

Right now he's super out of his comfort zone and has no idea what to do.

[owenbrown]

"Debut"? Did they forget he wrestled on Raw months ago when he was on NXT?

[Fenix122]

Some of you were happy about Cold being out....ARE YOU HAPPY NOW??? Huh? Lol I thought Easton was better than this.

[#1-norm-fan]

I really don't think having intentionally bad commentary is the plan here...

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Crowd needs to scream we Want Renee.

[Dark One]

He's supposed to be subdued. His friends are hurt.

If you have to take six Valium to get through work, you should probably just go home.

Also no one is friends with Byron Saxton.

[Lock Jaw]

Why even give these guys first names in NXT? Just cut to the chase.

[Droford]

Tyler Breeze needs to show up now and accept Cena's challenge!!
I figured Charlotte was a lock

[road doggy dogg]

I wanna see Neville face Cody Rhodes outside Ironforge

[Emperor Smeat]

Neville is just the worst name. Adrian Neville at least sounds "plausible", but no one would ever only go by "Neville".

Yeah doesn't sound good without a first name. Should have dropped the Nevile part if they only wanted one name.

[The CyNick]

He's supposed to be subdued. His friends are hurt.

Show must go on though

[owenbrown]

Give Saxton an IV drip of coffee or something

[Droford]

"Debut"? Did they forget he wrestled on Raw months ago when he was on NXT?

That was Adrian Neville...and he didn't have that cape.

I was there

[road doggy dogg]

whatever, Rusev and Cesaro sounded stupid with no first name or w/e at first too, but they grew on us

[owenbrown]

Is Cena gonna bring back the spinner U.S. belt?

[Lock Jaw]

AWOOOOOOooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooo

[Mercenary]

Get this guy a chair!

[Lock Jaw]

Ha ha, dude standing up over Saxton's shoulder....

[Simple Fan]

#saxtonsleeper should be trending world wide but we wouldn't know because no Cole.

[Volare]

TIP THE TABLE BACK OVER YOU FUCKING YUTZ!!

[Dark One]

Why even give these guys first names in NXT? Just cut to the chase.

The NXT Random Name Generator gives them twice the chance of a ridiculous name this way.

[Corndad]

The guy in the front row has to hate his life right now. Spend all that money and Saxton just stands in front of him all night.

[road doggy dogg]

Poit plz start a "Saxton sucks" chant

[Lock Jaw]

Are Booker and King still trapped there, surviving on whatever crumbs of food they can find?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Bryon is also subdued he doesn't even have a chair or table to get notes and stuff.

[Dark One]

Back to the Byron Saxton Quiet Jazz and Naptime Power Hour.

[KIRA]

Saxton somewhere between local weatherman and golf course commentator

[Droford]

New shirt

[Volare]

Cmon Poit time to snatch your 15 minutes right here!!

[Crimson]

What are they chanting??

[Dark One]

#saxtonsleeper should be trending world wide but we wouldn't know because no Cole.

Joey Styles is trending right now.

[Fenix122]

What are they chanting??

John Cena Sucks

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

john cena sucks.

[Emperor Smeat]

New merch for Cena.

[KIRA]

he didn't bring back that god awful spinner belt

[Corndad]

The Belt is on the TShirt. I'm gonna say he won't be losing it tonight.

[Crimson]

Haha omgggg can't get over Saxton.

[ClockShot]

Byron Saxton is a mellow dude. You'd think he'd be doing a painting the way Bob Ross would do one that way he's talking right now.

[road doggy dogg]

Cena suckin' up to the IWC

[Crimson]

What are they chanting?

[road doggy dogg]

johncena suuuuuuuuuuuuucks

[Dark One]

Just going to dump this here so we have something entertaining going on to prevent the Sandman Byron Saxton from putting us to sleep.

[Blonde Moment]

I think they are chanting John Cena is an Awesome individual

[road doggy dogg]

Love how Cena plays this all up.. kinda makes me love him

[Droford]

The Belt is on the TShirt. I'm gonna say he won't be losing it tonight.

Whoever beats him can take the shirt too

[ClockShot]

SETH ROLLINS LEFT! SETH ROLLINS LEFT!

[KIRA]

To be honest I like how Cena is working this crowd he is a master honestly

[Lock Jaw]

Lillian looking good tonight....

[Lock Jaw]

Thought it said "HLA" on the back of Cena's shirt....

[Corndad]

Ambrose!

[Droford]

Lol here comes rusev..

Maybe not

[ClockShot]

MEAN DEAN!

[Dark One]

If they really want to solidify John Cena as a face, he should put Byron Saxton in the STFU.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>"Here comes Rusev"

SHUT THE FUCK UP SAXTON</font>

[Lock Jaw]

Saxton.... "Here comes Rusev."

[Simple Fan]

Ambrose ok

[road doggy dogg]

DEAN AMBROSE BABY

[Lock Jaw]

CHAMPIONSHIIII

[Emperor Smeat]

Is this just one match or gauntlet style?

[Dark One]

Lol here comes rusev..

Maybe not

Jesus Christ.

HOW DOES THIS MAN HAVE A JOB? HOW HAVE THEY NOT PULLED HIM YET? HOW DID THEY THINK THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA? WHY IS NO ONE STOPPING THIS?

[KIRA]

Careful Saxton when the music hit you almost sounded awake

[owenbrown]

My "Cena wins by DQ after Rusev interferes" senses are tingling

[ClockShot]

I'm all for another year long forgotten U.S. Title run for Dean Ambrose.

[Lock Jaw]

Ambrose should win

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The fact that Cena has a new shirt specifically for the US title I'd assume he holds it for awhile, but this should be good.</font>

[Crimson]

Loss number 76 coming up for Ambrose

[Dark One]

This is why Byron Saxton was the third person eliminated from Season 4 of NXT.

[Lock Jaw]

#1 trend worldwide "ADRIAN Neville"

[Dark One]

<font color=goldenrod>The fact that Cena has a new shirt specifically for the US title I'd assume he holds it for awhile, but this should be good.</font>

Dude gets a new shirt like every three weeks anyway.

[RawRocks]

Byron Saxton is making want to turn Raw off

[Tazz Dan]

Is Cena going to finally snap and turn heel in this match?

[Dark One]

I can't even hear Saxton over the crowd.

[road doggy dogg]

are they seriously doing a commercial right now... jesus christ

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I want pretty inhumane things to happen to Saxton. He's single-handedly killing the mood of this show.</font>

[Mercenary]

cant even hear saxton god this guy needs to be fired like now

[weather vane]

Saxton so hot right now. Saxton.

[Lock Jaw]

The following is me complaining about the titles despite their efforts to elevate the belts:

They really need only 1 IC/US tier title and then a lower one (European). Doesn't "help" the belts when the guys going for them are always just like "Ok, I didn't win the IC belt, I'll just try for the US now" and vice versa.
