WWE RAW 7/6 feat. Lesnar suplexing Chicago, Owens Papa Powerbombing Chicago, and the Authority boring Chicago

None for Mercury? :'(

[KIRA]

I can't help feeling bad for Hunico whenever I see him but who knows he probably likes being Sin Cara

[Blonde Moment]

I am surprised Mercury wasn't stretchered out

[Dark One]

Titus O'Neil with the SICK BURN on JBL.

[Lock Jaw]

Has Darren Young said one thing....

[Dark One]

Has Darren Young said one thing....

That's his gimmick when they're on commentary, I think.

[#1-norm-fan]

I can't help feeling bad for Hunico whenever I see him but who knows he probably likes being Sin Cara

Feel like Hunico would probably have been future endeavored by now. He's got some job security as Sin Cara.

[KIRA]

Titus is killing it.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Someone tell Nunzio

Wonder if a group like that could "get away with" being called the "F.B.I." these days?

There needs to be a new stable introduced, from Canada...call them the Nova Scotia Army or "N.S.A." Would be Triple A's fav. stable of all-time.

[Tom Guycott]

He was a heel and had Ricardo Rodriguez.

But he was doing the same thing. He was there to introduce him in Spanish. The heel-ness came from "why" he was there (because he was a PERSONAL ring announcer for the rich boy heel) and did interference shit like a manager would. The insults RR would slip in during the ring intro weren't really caught by the crowd at large, but that wasn't the frue source for the heat.

[Tom Guycott]

Wait... did he just call Titus "Scott Steiner"?

[Dark One]

Well, I hope they have a third brown guy to play Sin Cara, since the second one landed on his head and is probably dead.

[KIRA]

Feel like Hunico would probably have been future endeavored by now. He's got some job security as Sin Cara.
Until they break up the Lucha Dragons as Kalisto is obviously the main focus.

[Savio]

I'd like Titus on commentary but I can't understand him sometimes.

[Dark One]

I'd like Titus on commentary but I can't understand him sometimes.

That's never stopped them from putting Booker T on commentary.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Also wonder if they called up a Japanese guy to WWE and gave him a gimmick where he treated every match like a puroresu style wrestler even though everything in WWE (except unplanned injuries) is planned out and carefully scripted, would fans "buy into"/"get" it?

[Tom Guycott]

I'd like Titus on commentary but I can't understand him sometimes.

Which is why it sounded like JBL called him Scott Steiner... but I wasn't paying full attention, so I'm not sure that's what I actually heard. ..

[Lock Jaw]

Damn.... had a comment to make... maybe a funny one.... but I forgot it....

[KIRA]

But he was doing the same thing. He was there to introduce him in Spanish. The heel-ness came from "why" he was there (because he was a PERSONAL ring announcer for the rich boy heel) and did interference shit like a manager would. The insults RR would slip in during the ring intro weren't really caught by the crowd at large, but that wasn't the frue source for the heat.

The insults were a nice little touch and I had to remind my self not everyone knew what he said when I heard no reaction from the crowd.

[Frank Drebin]

I was looking forward to it too, Jaw.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Well, I hope they have a third brown guy to play Sin Cara, since the second one landed on his head and is probably dead.

3 deaths on one RAW. :'( I know it's said they come in threes, but...too fast, man! Too fast! :'(

[KIRA]

That's never stopped them from putting Booker T on commentary.

In fact that was part of the charm.

[Frank Drebin]

Hope crowd goes ape shit whenever Owens makes his appearance.

[Lock Jaw]

I have it on good authority that CM Punk will accept the US Title Invitational

[Frank Drebin]

Who's authority, Lock Jaw?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Well at least they didn't try to make an annoying huge-ass production out of that like previous cover reveals. I LOL'd at the brief "WWE 2K3:16" logo, though.

[Lock Jaw]

Who's authority, Lock Jaw?

Jim

[KIRA]

It must feel good Austin Years after he stopped wrestling on the cover of WWE video game...its just to bad that a yrs worth of development probably means this game will suck like last year.

[Dark One]

I have it on good authority that CM Punk will accept the US Title Invitational

I think that is one of the few things that would break the forums and/or the internet as a whole. You know, if it were possible he would ever show up or could show up.

[Mercenary]

John Cena must be time for an Owen Brown melt dowm

[Frank Drebin]

Jim

Slim Jim?

[Dark One]

Balor/Owens was good, but didn't reach the "epic" level I wanted. It wasn't on the level of Cena/Owens.

[Tom Guycott]

Also wonder if they called up a Japanese guy to WWE and gave him a gimmick where he treated every match like a puroresu style wrestler even though everything in WWE (except unplanned injuries) is planned out and carefully scripted, would fans "buy into"/"get" it?

Seems like they wanted to go that road with Tensai... but severely underestimated him being recognized as Albert, shoehorning him into a potential main event spot, and not doing any character development explaining why this clearly white guy is pretending to be Japanese.

Meanwhile, they could get a Japanese wrestler, and have him introduced in Japanese, if they could swing someone fluent enough to do so. The only problem is they always want to give any Japanese guy a gimmick where he's stereotypical instead of letting his nationality be incidental.

[Tom Guycott]

Wow, some smarm there by Cena.

[KIRA]

Cena is trolling Chicago

[Frank Drebin]

Brock should accept just for the lolz

[Frank Drebin]

Fuck ya....preach Owens

[Frank Drebin]

Preach to owenbrown

[KIRA]

Amen Owens

[DAMN iNATOR]

It must feel good Austin Years after he stopped wrestling on the cover of WWE video game...its just to bad that a yrs worth of development probably means this game will suck like last year.

He just had his own special edition of WWE '13 with a DVD from his latest one bundled in it, but hey...why not force us all to do matches with "historical objectives" just for unlocks and story
progression in 2K16 just like the past 3 years? :roll:

[Corndad]

Yes Cesaro!!!

[DAMN iNATOR]

WHAT THE WHA...CESARO?!

[Tom Guycott]

Fuck yes.

[Frank Drebin]

Cesaro face turn?

[Dark One]

Ohhhhh sshhhhiiiiiiiiit.

[Emperor Smeat]

Owens is right about Cena's weekly promos being basically the same thing almost every time.

[KIRA]

Dare I hope for an epic triple threat

[Tom Guycott]

Triple threat, playa!

[Dark One]

http://i.imgur.com/wGrXwhT.gif

[DAMN iNATOR]

Don't back down Owens...

[Frank Drebin]

Yes....please let this match happen

[Lock Jaw]

CHAMPIONSHIIIIII

[KIRA]

goddamnit!

[Frank Drebin]

Kidd wristband....get em Cesaro even though we all know it's imposible for you to go over here.

[DAMN iNATOR]

AWW, WTF? We all KNOW Cesaro's just going to lose again...c'mon, let Owens get his opportunity early....

[KIRA]

come back owens we need this to be a triple threat

[Lock Jaw]

Obvious that Owens spoils this again....

[Corndad]

Part of me hopes Battleground becomes a Triple Threat now after Owens DQs Cesaro again.

[Dark One]

[Tom Guycott]

A step back to look:

in spite of Cena hate over "same ole shit", he's helping get these guys the fuck elevated, and really, any loss by Cena doesn't really hurt him. Its sad Cesaro is getting interjected into this at the expense of Kidd, but it might lead to that spark Cesaro needs to be a singles star.

Cesaro paid off Joe to kill Kidd so he could get a singles push. Joe did it for <s>The Rock</s> The Cesaro

Must be some residual jetlag from Japan.

[KIRA]

Cesaro aint got time for five knuckle bullshit

[DAMN iNATOR]

I've seen that. Still need to make story presentation feel less stale.

[Tom Guycott]

Honestly, thay would be cool, but even better if "all evidence" pointed to that to cause a rift, but it was instead, another culprit... I have a suggestion, but he seems to be getting a tag team push in NXT.

[Lock Jaw]

Cena: Watch out, guys

[Dark One]

No reason. I just really like posting that GIF in spoilers.

[Dark One]

Wait. Is this our main event? I just now realized this. Holy shit.

Cesaro main evented a Raw against John Cena.

[KIRA]

Wait. Is this our main event?

Yes sir why can't they all be like this?

[Tom Guycott]

Ok, seriously... THIS is a main event!

[Corndad]

That Spinning Uppercut was beautiful.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Wait. Is this our main event? I just now realized this. Holy shit.

Cesaro main evented a Raw against John Cena.

Yeah, me too. WTF?!

[RawRocks]

Cena has some moves.

[Frank Drebin]

Cena busting out some new moves. Obvs feels the heat from young risers like ZZ

[Tom Guycott]

Waylon Mercy sign?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Owens probably due back out aaaaaany second...

[Dark One]

Wait. Is this our main event? I just now realized this. Holy shit.

Cesaro main evented a Raw against John Cena.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

THIS IS REAL LIFE.

[Tom Guycott]

Hm. Hope his neck isn't hurt seriously.

[Mercenary]

Must be some residual jetlag from Japan.



He was never in Japan they did the broadcast from the Studios. It's just Cole fucking up like he always does

[DAMN iNATOR]

Waylon Mercy sign?

LOL, at first I thought of Waylon Jennings. "Welp, looks like them WWE boys done found themselves in another whole heap o' trouble!"

[DAMN iNATOR]

Neutralizer next, plz...

[Mercenary]

LOL, at first I thought of Waylon Jennings. "Welp, looks like them WWE boys done found themselves in another whole heap o' trouble!"


Careful that's racist now

[Tom Guycott]

LOL, at first I thought of Waylon Jennings. "Welp, looks like them WWE boys done found themselves in another whole heap o' trouble!"

Would have been funnier if the J&J mobille were painted like the General Lee.

In fact, didn't Jamie have competition orange trunks with an 01 at one point?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Careful that's racist now

How so? :wtf:

[Dark One]

Owens is going to get nuclear heat for ruining this. The only way he could get more is if he walked out to Cult of Personality.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Would have been funnier if the J&J mobille were painted like the General Lee.

Probably.

[KIRA]

Sharpshooter

[Corndad]

Cena has been amazing recently but his STF is still one of the worst submission moves in history.

[KIRA]

that was glorious

[Mercenary]

How so? :wtf:

Same reason The Dukes of Hazaed are for some reason?

[DAMN iNATOR]

HAHA, legit thought Cesaro was trying to pull off a Ram-Paige...

[Dark One]

Part of me hopes Battleground becomes a Triple Threat now after Owens DQs Cesaro again.

I think my heart would explode during that match.

[Dark One]

The fact that Cesaro can still hit moves like that 20 minutes into a match is fucking insane. It's crazy even early on in a match, but he's been trading bombs with Cena for twenty minutes now.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Same reason The Dukes of Hazaed are for some reason?

Oh, boo hoo..."their car had a Confederate flag on it, so the people on the show are all obviously horrible people!"

Gimme a break.

[Dark One]

Good news, Cesaro! You've passed the "Is your name chantable" test!

[DAMN iNATOR]

Neutralizer next, plz...

Called it! :)

[Mercenary]

Oh, boo hoo..."their car had a Confederate flag on it, so the people on the show are all obviously horrible people!"

Gimme a break.


Dude I was being sarcastic

[Corndad]

I think my heart would explode during that match.

Hell give Cesaro the Title and let Owens/Cena have the rubber match at SummerSlam.

[Dark One]

Tonight Raw will be 4 hours. 80 minutes of Cesaro/Cena.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Good news, Cesaro! You've passed the "Is your name chantable" test!

Anything more than 3 syllables makes fans have to get creative.

[Tom Guycott]

Oh, boo hoo..."their car had a Confederate flag on it, so the people on the show are all obviously horrible people!"

Gimme a break.

I will say, that was one of the better parts of the forgettable movie... not knowing the flag was even up there and getting the reaction from people in traffic.

[RawRocks]

WHAT. A. MATCH.

[DAMN iNATOR]

About time.., fucking almost 10 minute overrun.

[Emperor Smeat]

Telegraphed that Super AA a bit too much but holy shit if Ceasaro had hit a Super Neutralizer there.

Match was amazing overall.

[KIRA]

Chicago givin John respect

[Dark One]

Now to watch another Dusty Rhodes special and cry like a bitch.

[Lock Jaw]

Great match.... Hope Cesaro stays in the mix as a singles competitor now and doesn't fade away again....

[Tom Guycott]

Wish i could watch it, but my feed switches from the network for the prezshow to Sky, and doesn't go back.

[DAMN iNATOR]

"And coming up after the Dusty Rhodes retrospective, stay tuned for a special sneak peak at our in-the-making reflection on the lives of Jamie Noble, Joseph "Joey" Mercury and their Cadillac."

[Dark One]

God damn Michael Hayes.

"Hey Vince, did you see that? Cesaro is pretty legit!"

Vince: "Sorry, what? I wasn't paying attention, I was preparing for TOUGH ENOUGH tomorrow"

[KIRA]

youve never seen The Rock's sharpshooter have you?

[DAMN iNATOR]

*slaps with a white glove* Good sir, I challenge you to duel for your honor! :mad:

[KIRA]

WHA..Really? Cause even as kids we thought it was shitty

[DAMN iNATOR]

WHA..Really? Cause even as kids we thought it was shitty

Well, bear in mind that the first time I watched full-length RAW and SD! was probably not until the week after Survivor Series 2001 in November of that year, so I suppose, being 20 at that time until the day of WrestleMania x8 on March 17, 2002, I could be considered a"kid". So maybe it's just that it was my inexperience as a fan at that point or maybe it's the Rock mark/fanboy in me, or both, but either way I never actually minded seeing him use it, thought it was rather cool. And yes, I'm aware of guys who used it before him, such as Bret and Shawn, but I'm fine with being a vocal minority in speaking up for Rock's possibly only signature submission move in his arsenal.

[Savio]

Worst was when WWE totally nerfed the "walls of Jericho".

[Emperor Smeat]

A fan in the crowd at the Allstate Arena was struck during the Brock Lesnar angle on Raw where Lesnar attacked and destroyed the car Seth Rollins gifted J&J Security last week.

During the angle, Lesnar ripped a car door off and tossed it. A piece of the door ended up in the crowd, where it apparently struck a fan.

Billy Krotchsen sent word that the head of WWE Security and paramedics attended to the fan, who was then brought backstage before returning to his seat. All signs are the fan was OK.

Fan must have muttered something that broke the 11th Commandment :shifty:

[DAMN iNATOR]

'F' the Walls...it's all about that Liontamer baby!

[DAMN iNATOR]

Fan must have muttered something that broke the 11th Commandment :shifty:

Oh, shit, son! Suplex City may have just become Lawsuit City!

20 eh? we were in like 7th grade

[DAMN iNATOR]

20 eh? we were in like 7th grade

So you're what, 25, 26 now? I'm 34, starting to rock an old man wizard's beard...seriously...I'm probably ancient by board standards of average age here. I'm no Matchbox or YOUR Hero, but I'm sure I'll get there sooner than I want to.

[KIRA]

I envy you I can't grow any facial hair it sucks.

[Blonde Moment]

I could listen to those guys bullshit all night.

[Corkscrewed]

So two Lesnar RAW segments in a row end in people legit getting hurt (Noble and fan)? Brock's in the doghouse!!

[DAMN iNATOR]

I envy you I can't grow any facial hair it sucks.

Yeah, it's starting to get into "Wyatt beard" territory...pretty amazing.

[DAMN iNATOR]

So two Lesnar RAW segments in a row end in people legit getting hurt (Noble and fan)? Brock's in the doghouse!!

He's responsible for two deaths out of 3, the other being Sin Cara right after that segment.

But seriously, I didn't know Noble or Mercury had an actual confirmed injury. Thought Noble just had the typical reaction to the Kimura Lock, and Mercury seemed find despite hurtling into the windshield.

[Dark One]

– WZ reports that after Raw went off the air, John Cena had Cesaro come out and gave an “emotionally charged” promo praising him. Cena praised Cesaro’s in-ring ability and work ethic, causing the Chicago crowd to give them a standing ovation.

[Rammsteinmad]

Holy fuck at that main event! Cesaro is a fucking monster and I really hope they don't screw this up this time. Cena's US open challenge is week-in and week-out putting on five-star matches, but this one was insane. I was really hoping Cesaro would kick out of the top-rope AA, because the crowd reaction would have been incredible! I was also hoping for a handshake after a match, because again, it would help solidify Cesaro a bit more, but overall fuck me that was incredible!

[Sepholio]

Why hasn't Cena always wrestled like this? Or is everyone else just making him look super good lately? Cuz he has like 80% of my match of the year candidates right now probably.

I can't wait for Owens/Cesaro 1 on 1. It shall be glorious.

[Droford]

Funny thing about Cesaro is if they don't make it a triple threat he'll end up not wrestling at battleground

[KIRA]

Cesaro should've been pushed to the moon after WM 30 but all things in time this looks to be his.

Totally looked like a main eventer last night. Cesaro doesn't connect with people my ass.

Week in and week out I look forward to John Cena matches the dude has been in fucking fire even the biggest haters can't deny that.

[#1-norm-fan]

He's still gotta learn to cut a promo.

he's been this good for a long time imo. he's just getting more time to showcase it against top level in ring talent.

DB is average on the mic fans still are in love with him.
