RAW - March 28th - The Road to WrestleMania/Prayer Circle

[rad dggy dg]

It's the final RAW on the road to WrestleMania. I'm going to try and watch as much as I can this week, my son owenbrown has horrible diarrhea so he might need to be here as moral support for him. Please pray for him. Also, please pray for a good RAW, it's been a stinker (no pun intended Owen).

After his kendo stick assault on Brock Lesnar on SmackDown ended in an F-5, Dean Ambrose will have retribution on his restless mind when he enters the Barclays Center for Raw. Will The Beast Incarnate be waiting in Brooklyn, N.Y., six nights before their No Holds Barred Street Fight at WrestleMania? Plus, how will Shane McMahon and The Undertaker respond to Mr. McMahon’s announcement that, if The Deadman does not defeat WWE’s prodigal son inside Hell in a Cell, this will be his last appearance on The Grandest Stage of Them All?


Who is the true authority in WrestleMania's main event?

To what extremes will Ambrose go to slay The Beast?

Are we approaching The Undertaker’s final WrestleMania?

Will Jericho accept Styles’ challenge?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Can't wait for Stephanie McMahon to be in half the segments putting herself over tonight

[slik]

I wonder what else will get bumped to the preshow (Divas 5 on 5 match plz)

[Outsider]

Two people I know are there tonight. Bastards.

This means I am conflicted between wanting a good show as I'm bothering to stay up to watch it (no work tomorrow) and wanting a shit show because fuck those guys.

I think what we'll get instead of three limp hours of standard mediocrity.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I fucking hate when the commentators call Brock "The Beast Incarnate". It sounds painfully forced. I hate these like mass produced forced fucking nicknames. Just awful

[Emperor Smeat]

Wonder if the WWE will be able to topple last year's laughable ending for Mani's go-home show.

http://i.imgur.com/yh2gWBF.gif

[Outsider]

I only watch RAW just so I can laugh at how awful it is.

It's pretty much the same attitude I have to where I work.

[Corndad]

I'm holding out hope they have a Takeover hype match tonight. It's pretty sad but that's probably the event I'm most looking forward to this weekend . Hall of Fame may even be 2nd at this point in time.

[Jari]

Can't wait for Stephanie McMahon to be in half the segments putting herself over tonight

Bets on who she'll emasculate tonight?

[Volare]

I can't believe it's the go home RAW for Mania.....and I don't know if I want to watch or not.

[road doggy dogg]

let's go WWE Raw

[ClockShot]

Okay, Vince. Many questions to be answered here tonight.

How bad do you want us to watch WrestleMania?

Is Roman Reigns REALLY gonna be "the guy"? Will you pull a last second audible tonight for the title match?

Will there be an equal ratio of wrestling/segments/advertisements/PPV promoting tonight?

What's the big news that's been going around the net today?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Problem is, the injuries is the built in excuse for if Mania bombs at the box office. There will be no real reflection on what they should do differently.

[Ruien]

This is going to be awesome. Can't wait to get home to out this on. There has to be a bunch of matched around the IC ladder match which will be the goods. Plus, it's the last show to get Roman over. There has to be something epic happening with him.

[Jari]

Okay, Vince. Many questions to be answered here tonight.

What's the big news that's been going around the net today?

I mean surely Taker is going to respond in some way negatively to Vince calling Taker "his bitch" last week, no?

[Droford]

Undertaker right out of the hells gate

[ClockShot]

Problem is, the injuries is the built in excuse for if Mania bombs at the box office. There will be no real reflection on what they should do differently.



Box office is "allegedly" sold out. WWE Network is..........WWE Network.

If they take a hit on anything, it's the $100 PPV buys. Or whatever the going rate this year is.

[Triple A]

Cool @ Raw being in Brooklyn... hopefully will "seem" like at least a decent show cause of a good crowd even if the show is horrible

[Outsider]

I just rushed back from the loo for the start of this and it's Taker's entrance. I could have had another five minutes dammit.

[road doggy dogg]

de undataka

[owenbrown]

The WWE title match at WM needs more of this guy...

Nvd8fNIs96Q

[ClockShot]

Yeah.

Still have no clue how this Shane/Taker is gonna play out. All I know is that Trips wants it to go on last.

[road doggy dogg]

so is Undertaker/Shane still *actually* happening? they didn't add some crazy stipulation or anything where Shane has someone fight in his stead?

[Jari]

Cool @ Raw being in Brooklyn... hopefully will "seem" like at least a decent show cause of a good crowd even if the show is horrible

Tell that to Roman

[Emperor Smeat]

There were rumors for a while about Cena possibly replacing Shane although that was before it got confirmed he wasn't going to return in time.

[ClockShot]

so is Undertaker/Shane still *actually* happening? they didn't add some crazy stipulation or anything where Shane has someone fight in his stead?

Taker loses.....................HE'S FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRED!

Per Vince last week.

[road doggy dogg]

wonder if that was the plan all along

[Jari]

There were rumors for a while about Cena possibly replacing Shane although that was before it got confirmed he wasn't going to return in time.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but how it's not Brock Lesnar that Shane is fighting, I do not know.

[ClockShot]

WrestleMania logo pisses me off. Looks like it got bull horns which means The Rock should drop in.

But he's got better things to host like the MTV Movie Awards.

Deceiving.

[road doggy dogg]

Undertaker is just a giant mess of a bunch of stupid things thrown together

"dead man"
"MMA gloves"
"weird desperado hat"
"my house" dialogue

just stick to one motif... w/e he's like 60 he'll be gone/dead soon anyway

[Droford]

Shane needs some hair dye

[road doggy dogg]

Shane McMahon reminds me of Bill Simmons now for some reason... grey hair

[Jari]

Shane and Taker are looking very orange.

[road doggy dogg]

UT rocking the skullet

[Outsider]

The fact I have no idea what will happen with this angle is what makes it by far the most interesting in the run up to Mania.

This angle also benefits from not involving Roman Reigns.

[road doggy dogg]

Shane has a thick neck... UT has a stupid neck tattoo

[Triple A]

Feels like they have already done this "schtick" like 4 times

[road doggy dogg]

YOU DON'T GET TO TALK ABOUT MY LEGACY

[Triple A]

Wish something cool / interesting would happen

[road doggy dogg]

namedrop cody rhodes bruh

[Droford]

The fact I have no idea what will happen with this angle is what makes it by far the most interesting in the run up to Mania.

This angle also benefits from not involving Roman Reigns.

Takers going to win

[road doggy dogg]

this is defs not worthy of a "holy shit" chant, but at least the crowd is alive... I'll allow it

[Outsider]

A man in his 50s facing off with the owners son who hasn't been around for a few years and has never been a full time wrestler.

Yet this is still the best they actually are offering.

[Outsider]

Takers going to win

SPOILERS DAMMIT :mad:

[road doggy dogg]

Shane's punches still look awful..

[Droford]

Lol so stupid

[ClockShot]

Starting early.

[Jari]

Great back and forth on the mic.

Not so good with the punches again.

[GD]

Interesting choice to humanize the Undertaker.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: those punches.

[ClockShot]

They didn't teach ya much in Muay Thai training, did they Shane?

[road doggy dogg]

Shane should just stick to being a spot monkey... his "filler stuff" (punches etc) is bad news

[Outsider]

Foreign objects to the face, how much we've missed you.

[road doggy dogg]

here we go

[Poit]

But there won't be any television monitors inside hell in a cell this Sunday, Maggal!

[ClockShot]

Don't try this at home, Shane's kids.

[road doggy dogg]

fuck yeah

[Droford]

Whiff

[Outsider]

Genuinely thought Shane was about to come up short then

[road doggy dogg]

okay I'll overlookg the punches for that

[ClockShot]

BLOOD!

[Jari]

Can't throw a punch to save his life but he can still drop an elbow!

I knew I still loved Shane O'Mac!

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Hey RDD I've missed this segment, will start watching shortly, but I need to know... did anyone overcome any odds or dig down deep in the first segment?

[road doggy dogg]

perhaps... I know Shane defs was RUING THE DAY for a minute there

[Jari]

Genuinely thought Shane was about to come up short then
I had visions of Mick Foley at Wrestlemania 2000 the moment he went to the top rope.

[Corndad]

Holy Shit

[Triple A]

Damn u guys see that lil glimpse of Shane's chiseled abs...

[Droford]

Genuinely thought Shane was about to come up short then

He barelyvtouched Taker

[road doggy dogg]

UNDERTAKER GOT UP AFTER 4 MINUTES OF BEING DOWN AFTER AN ELBOW

HOLY SHIT

[owenbrown]

welp I guess we know Shane's losing on Sunday

[road doggy dogg]

"the gunslinger" ... smh

[Volare]

I JUST CAUGHT THE PERFECT JUMP HOLY FUCK

[Triple A]

Crowd is good "as per" usual for Barclays Center... a lil overzealous "holy shit" / "this is awesome" chants but that's cool...

[Jari]

Quite surprised with all the injuries they have, WWE allowed Shane and Taker to do that.

[Jari]

All downhill from here lads

[Outsider]

Crowd is good "as per" usual... a lil overzealous "holy shit" / "this is awesome" chants but that's cool...

In their defense, a 'this is passable' chant would be hard to keep up.

[slik]

just got home...how was the opening segment w/ Taker/Shane

who was 'in control' when it ended (aka the person who loses this Sunday)

[KIRA]

"More of everything you love" is coming to the WWE Network

You mean wrestling right?

[road doggy dogg]

opening was good

sry u missed it

[slik]

went to commercial w/ Shane looking 'sweaty' was the first thing I saw while Undertaker's music played...

[road doggy dogg]

SPOILER ALERT BELOW: SHANE'S ABS

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CerLRKjWEAAKQIQ.jpg

[slik]

sweet....replay time

[Emperor Smeat]

just got home...how was the opening segment w/ Taker/Shane

who was 'in control' when it ended (aka the person who loses this Sunday)

Was really good and even had a crazy Shane spot.

He's in shape for the match. That's a plus.

[road doggy dogg]

He's in shape for the match. That's a plus.

definitely seemed winded though.. that's alarming

[slik]

Shane's punches still look bad...

where did those Abs come from...

elbow spot was cool

[Jari]

Zack Ryder looks like the guy from BroScience

[road doggy dogg]

fuck yeah Jericho

[KIRA]

In their defense, a 'this is passable' chant would be hard to keep up.

It's not too hard the crowd needs to be honest with itself. Awesome is a stretch.

Zack Ryder GOING TO MANIA!

[Jari]

Shane's punches still look bad...

where did those Abs come from...

elbow spot was cool

Desperate for his father's approval, innit?

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

[ClockShot]

So are we getting a Styles/Owens do-over from last week?

I'd like that very much.

[road doggy dogg]

love heel Jericho

[Jari]

It's not too hard the crowd needs to be honest with itself. Awesome is a stretch.

Zack Ryder GOING TO MANIA!

Zack Ryder or Sin Cara are almost definitely getting attacked in the back to be replaced by said attacker.

[road doggy dogg]

weird look for Styles.................

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

perhaps... I know Shane defs was RUING THE DAY for a minute there

As long as days were rued, I'm pretty intrigued

[Jari]

love heel Jericho

I've highly enjoyed this run

[road doggy dogg]

AJ needs to show off that flow

[DAMN iNATOR]

Styles in a baseball cap? Really?!

[road doggy dogg]

I've highly enjoyed this run

this is honestly the most I've enjoyed Jericho in like 5 years

[road doggy dogg]

Jericho's offense is very "dismissive" of Ryder... ha ha

[DAMN iNATOR]

Would be great and hilarious if Styles cost Jericho the match to Ryder via distraction.

[Outsider]

Zack Ryder looks like the guy from BroScience

He also looks like a guy from NXT, except with a different personality and ring attire.

Must be a coincidence.

[ClockShot]

That's JBL's hat.

Now I want him to go ballistic right now and kill everybody.

[Jari]

this is honestly the most I've enjoyed Jericho in like 5 years

I would agree. Best I've seen him since that feud with Punk.

[road doggy dogg]

I really hope the Jericho/Styles WM match is just a straight up match... no stipulations or run-ins etc...

[road doggy dogg]

WWWYKI

[Triple A]

AJ Styles so freaking corny...

"Y2 Jackass" smh

Glad the crowd is mostly not into it at all...

[owenbrown]

RYDER WON! RYDER WON!

[KIRA]

Ryder wins

Not feeling Styles hat tho.

[ClockShot]

Ditch the hat, AJ. It's doesn't fit ya.

[road doggy dogg]

How stupid are you? You stupid idiot!

[Jari]

Note to WWE - never let AJ Styles wear a baseball cap in public again.

[Volare]

I DONT GIVE A FUCK RYDER JUST PINNED JERICHO!!

[road doggy dogg]

You stupid ass!

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

This is kind of weird but lol Jericho angry is the greatest

[DAMN iNATOR]

Damn. Would've LOVED to have seen Ryder win via busting out the Zack Attack instead of stupid roll-up/inside cradle/schoolboy...when's the last time he actually used/attempted that move?

[road doggy dogg]

yayy

[Outsider]

Liberal use of the word 'ass', weapon shoots to the head, blood.

It must be the run up to Mania.

Next week will be back to normal.

[road doggy dogg]

the set-up for this match is so telegraphed but idc... happy for this match to happen

[Jari]

Damn. Would've LOVED to have seen Ryder win via busting out the Zack Attack instead of stupid roll-up/inside cradle/schoolboy...when's the last time he actually used/attempted that move?

Even when he wins, he still ends up taking his opponent's finisher :(

[Outsider]

Guy in the background on his phone definitely just looked at Becky Lynch's arse on TV.

[Ultra Mantis]

Zack Ryder is currently the hottest free agent in TPWW Survivor XX2.

[DAMN iNATOR]

I DONT GIVE A FUCK RYDER JUST PINNED JERICHO!!

Too bad he didn't get a chance to have the reaction of years ago when he shouted "I WON! I WIN ON "RAW"!"

Was a tremendous moment.

[Jari]

Guy in the background on his phone definitely just looked at Becky Lynch's arse on TV.

Noid works backstage for the WWE?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

the set-up for this match is so telegraphed but idc... happy for this match to happen

Exactly what I was thinking... like it seems like all of the reactions are just because "this is what the writers wrote so we're doing it". Jericho's anger was tremendous but it doesn't make sense that someone would be so angry because AJ Styles is getting his name chanted.

[road doggy dogg]

USA NETWORK CRANBERRIES SONG ON AGAIN YEAHH... not worth typing in caps for sry

[Volare]

Even when he wins, he still ends up taking his opponent's finisher :(

Hey now he made that codebreaker look great!

[DAMN iNATOR]

Zack Ryder is currently the hottest free agent in TPWW Survivor XX2.

Seriously thought about taking him, but quickly thought better of it. Not likely, despite my hopes, that he wins the IC ladder match Sunday, but if he did I'd mark the fuck out.

[Jari]

Shane's going off or through the Cell at Wrestlemania, isn't he?

[road doggy dogg]

debating getting a snack for rest of Raw... kind of late in the evening now though...

[DAMN iNATOR]

USA NETWORK CRANBERRIES SONG ON AGAIN YEAHH... not worth typing in caps for sry

It's ok to get excited by cranberries. No judgment.

[Jari]

Seriously thought about taking him, but quickly thought better of it. Not likely, despite my hopes, that he wins the IC ladder match Sunday, but if he did I'd mark the fuck out.

Regardless, he can't be eliminated though.

Seriously can see him being attacked backstage for a debut though. Like I say him or Sin Cara are cannon fodder for that kind of thing if they wanted a surprise debut.

[DAMN iNATOR]

debating getting a snack for rest of Raw... kind of late in the evening now though...

It's almost as if the cranberry song is trying to tell you something...

[road doggy dogg]

Flo Rida is so inexplicably bad at music.

[road doggy dogg]

love Becky Lynch's music

[road doggy dogg]

she is my favourite I hope she wins

[DAMN iNATOR]

Regardless, he can't be eliminated though.

Seriously can see him being attacked backstage for a debut though. Like I say him or Sin Cara are cannon fodder for that kind of thing if they wanted a surprise debut.

Well, yeah, I know that, but STILL. It wouldn't even have to be a particularly long reign. Just let him have it for a month or 2 and I'd be happy.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Flair calling Becky a nutjob during that Smackdown replay.

[road doggy dogg]

lol @ how loud Ric Flair was

[road doggy dogg]

"two-time WWE hall of famer"

lol what, is that true

[Volare]

Is Ric gonna be able to walk the long ass walkway at Mania?

[ClockShot]

"two-time WWE hall of famer"

lol what, is that true

Went in solo and as a Horseman.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

by himself and with the 4 horsemen

[Jari]

Exactly what I was thinking... like it seems like all of the reactions are just because "this is what the writers wrote so we're doing it". Jericho's anger was tremendous but it doesn't make sense that someone would be so angry because AJ Styles is getting his name chanted.

I disagree, think this has been built up well. Styles comes in and he's the new kid of the block that everyone's excited about. Meanwhile Jericho is the veteran, growing old disgracefully, struggling with the idea that his time is coming to an end. Since the Rumble the fans' acceptance of Styles over Jericho has hit the switch in Jericho's head that has turned him into the angry, bitter and condescending heel he's always excelled at being.

Now it's confirmed, I can't wait for the match.

[road doggy dogg]

charlotte has one of those fucking awful word tattooes on her body.. like wtf do you need a whole paragraph for smh

[ClockShot]

Random commercial spot.

[Volare]

"two-time WWE hall of famer"

lol what, is that true

Yep, as himself and with the horsemen as a group.

[road doggy dogg]

the one thing that 1000% always bothers me about Raw is commercials during matches

fucking kidding me

[slik]

k went to eat food...missed jericho/styles...did they announce their match...hope they r not on the pre-show

[Volare]

It's on like Donkey Kong

[road doggy dogg]

seriously this is enough to make me almost stop watching... fucks up the entire pacing of everything

[Volare]

I thought I read somewhere pre show was Usos vs Dudleys and Andre battle royal.

[Jari]

seriously this is enough to make me almost stop watching... fucks up the entire pacing of everything

I find it more infuriating when they run commercials on the WWE Network for content on the WWE Network.

[Jari]

I thought I read somewhere pre show was Usos vs Dudleys and Andre battle royal.

I've certainly heard, think on the Observer podcast, that the Battle Royal is on the pre-show.

[DAMN iNATOR]

the one thing that 1000% always bothers me about Raw is commercials during matches

fucking kidding me

Gotta pay the bills somehow. Although there was that "commercial-free" episode some years back where they did plugs on-air for KFC or something.

[road doggy dogg]

fucking awesome suplex

[Volare]

Every one Regal has taught now uses the Cravat.

[road doggy dogg]

Gotta pay the bills somehow.

yeah no shit, I know what the point of commercials is

no need at all for them in the middle of fucking matches

[Droford]

Is Ric gonna be able to walk the long ass walkway at Mania?

They need the motorized rings from WM 3

[road doggy dogg]

I find it more infuriating when they run commercials on the WWE Network for content on the WWE Network.

yeah it's like a total slap to the face. WE ARE PAYING YOU MONEY ALREADY QUIT TELLING US HOW GREAT IT WOULD BE IF WE WERE

so dumb

[road doggy dogg]

"Natural Selection"... cool, like that they have the EVOLUTION tie-in with her stuff...

[GD]

Looks like Vince forgot to apply makeup.

[road doggy dogg]

So Vince is less grey than Shane atm

[road doggy dogg]

RENEE IS THE BEST TOO BTW JUST NEEDS TO BE SAID

[KIRA]

Shane REALLY starting to look like his dad.

[road doggy dogg]

vince avec renee hand mic

[Jari]

Shane REALLY starting to look like his dad.

He's always been the spitting image of Vince tbf

[Volare]

Great father son moment there!!

[Outsider]

I love the way wrestling changes in time.

Back when I was a teenager we had matches at Wrestlemania where Vince and Shane were battling for the soul of the company.

Now we have the same, but with light up ring aprons.

PROGRESS.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Shane looks lean and mean though

[road doggy dogg]

so I mean

Shane obviously "been working out" and OBVIOUSLY tanning... why not just grab some hair dye, nobody will think less of you bro

[ClockShot]

Ric Flair gets fired.

Yet, he's still with the company.

I miss Jim Ross.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Shane should go bleach blonde

[Outsider]

YOU'RE NOT YOU WHEN YOU'RE HUNGRY.

I'm also not Shawn Michaels when I'm full, so that advert confused me.

[road doggy dogg]

hey they got a desk

[road doggy dogg]

social outcasts and big show

well if this isn't a piss break I don't know what is

[road doggy dogg]

THE DEMON KANE

[Volare]

Happy Birthday Mr Perfect indeed!!!

[Droford]

Bos ring attire hides his gut better

[Outsider]

What better way to remember Mr Perfect than by humiliating his son...

[Jari]

A ring full of dead wood

[ClockShot]

Heh heh heh.

Impromptu battle royal.

This segment is a useful reminder of some people who still work for the WWE.

I CALL ADAM ROSE.

[ClockShot]

Kane & Big Show as Tag champs.

I can see that happening.

[KIRA]

All this stuff that has happened since the beginning of the show seems like it should have happened toward or at the end.

[Jari]

social outcasts and big show

well if this isn't a piss break I don't know what is

Like I said before after watching the Austin/Big Show podcast:

Big Show - :cool::y::cool:

Two more years of Big Show - :|:|:|

[Ruien]

Time to watch. What did I miss?

[road doggy dogg]

"Planted! Hashtag"

christ

[Jari]

I CALL ADAM ROSE.

Dibs on the Ascension

[Volare]

Time to watch. What did I miss?

Honestly some cool shit.

[DAMN iNATOR]

I CALL ADAM ROSE.

Don't be a lemon, be a Rose, bud!

[Volare]

Way to hype the title match with some weak ass music.

[road doggy dogg]

right at 9:00 and in the middle of a commercial. Way to catch those channel changers!

[Droford]

All this stuff that has happened since the beginning of the show seems like it should have happened toward or at the end.

The end will probably be Ambrose stuff

[road doggy dogg]

Time to watch. What did I miss?

opening segment had a good Shane McMahon spot

cool Jericho/AJ Styles stuff... cheesyish but good enough

women's match

andre battle royale stuff

[Jari]

Time to watch. What did I miss?

Shane and Taker talked about legacy (their legacy, not the Randy Orton lead group) Shane said Taker's legacy died two years ago. The crowd went ooh and then Shane dropped an elbow from the top rope through the announce table.

Jericho/AJ is booked for Mania.

Not much in the way of wrestling.

We just had a clusterfuck of talent, some of whom I thought were on the unemployable line. Don't know who's going to win the Andre the Giant Battle Royal based on it.

That's about it so far.

[Ruien]

Damn. Going g to catch the AJ Y2J stuff via YouTube then. Going to be an awesome last 2 hours though. Suprised there has not been a match related to the IC ladder match. Figured there would be 1 per hour.

[Triple A]

Does http://www.usanetwork.com/videos/live freeze for a second, then replay the last 2 seconds... like every 15 seconds... for any1 else

[road doggy dogg]

KING OF KINGS


glad this didn't kick off Raw

[owenbrown]

Please give Roman 30 days off

[Jari]

If there is a God please let this be the last time I see the Authority on Raw

[Outsider]

So how loud do we think the boos will be for Reigns?

I'm hoping for some on the same scale as a man who has just set fire to a puppys favorite toy, in front of the aforementioned puppy. To the tune of Nickleback.

[slik]

where is the demon brock, the demon bray and the demon dean at...

[Ruien]

opening segment had a good Shane McMahon spot

cool Jericho/AJ Styles stuff... cheesyish but good enough

women's match

andre battle royale stuff

Did I negative rep this? Meant to be a positive rep but a pop up came up about negative repp ing someone. My bad via mobile if so.

And on the 7th day, the Roman Empire was created.

[road doggy dogg]

I might just be a huge mark but holy crap I can't stand Stephanie

[Jari]

If they do legit sell over 100,000 tickets at Wrestlemania, we can expect HHH and his friends to all tell us about how he main evented and this seals his place as one of the greatest/the Michael Jordan of wrestling again, won't it?

[rad dggy dg]

Please give Roman 30 days off

You need to take your Pepto Bismol. That diarrhea won't go away on it's own son. Please, for the love of Pete, take your Pepto.

[Triple A]

this sucks

[Outsider]

I'll have you know I have the skills to make my dreams a reality Hunter.

I just don't have the motivation, cunning, finances or self-belief.

[Triple A]

fuck this

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Well if she makes you want to change the channel then it's bad heat, if you want to see the roman empire topple her it's good heat.

[Jari]

I might just be a huge mark but holy crap I can't stand Stephanie
A vastly overrated promo. Serves no purpose when no one can get any heat back on her either.

[road doggy dogg]

Triple H is good on the mic and all but this is honestly boring the hell out of me

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Lol what the fuck is the point of this promo

[KIRA]

Brilliant way to put Roman over "YOU ALL SUCK Roman Reigns is god!" LOL

[slik]

this is boring...bring out brock lesnar

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

She speaks usually strictly in exposition (I think that's the right term but I can't remember, leave me alone)

[owenbrown]

Well at least Triple H admits his obsession

[road doggy dogg]

I have had a stranglehold on this business and championship for the past 20 years.


ha ha ha

[Jari]

Lol what the fuck is the point of this promo

HHH is one of the greatest, not the definition of a B+ player.

How do I know - cause he told me.

[KIRA]

HHH is trying so fucking hard.

[Triple A]

oh my god this feels like... unbearable to watch... jesus... every week... can't take it,,,

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Does this promo need to be 45 minutes?

[Ruien]

Triple H is good on the mic and all but this is honestly boring the hell out of me

Lol what the fuck is the point of this promo

Sigh. I have been so positive for the past month but this is stupid. This is not the way for Roman to go into Mania. Maybe it will turn around but arv.

[Jari]

ha ha ha

Mr Stephanie McMahon being very honest.

[Lock Jaw]

Hey guys, I'm here

Killer promo by Triple H right here

[Outsider]

Is that a boring chant?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

He's trying so hard to cut a deep promo but it just all sounds like BLAH

[Jari]

[Evil Vito]

Sounds like a boring show as per usual.

[Ruien]

Should have let Steph talk instead. She is the key to getting Roman over honestly.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

OH MY GOD FUCK YOURSELF STEPHANIE oh no Roman is coming out to call people son.

[Outsider]

The question about this whole segment is if any of this is proper heat, or is it X-Pac heat?

[KIRA]

BOOOOOOOOOO

[road doggy dogg]

I give him props for doing his damndest to put someone who has no business being in the WM main event over, but jesus christ this is so contrived

[Droford]

Roman..Reigns..uses..the ramp now

[Fenix122]

They really need to stop sliding into the ring head first

[Ruien]

Really love how I have not heard Roman speak in forever. Hopefully he cuts a badass promo here.

[Outsider]

That was fucking awful.

[GD]

Hope Hunter destroys Roman like he did Booker at Mania.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Stephanie is not the key to getting anyone over, she is a genital wart on the cock that is wrestling. Fucking talentless hack of a cunt. I fucking hate her and in a change the channel way

[road doggy dogg]

"They're booing the cowardly tactic of leaving the ring!"

[Triple A]

How did they used to build up main event feuds back when wrestling was "good"...

Was it always like this...

10-25 min promo... then the person who is feuding with the person giving the promo comes out and they have a quick "scuffle"... for like 4 weeks in a row... like the same formula over and over...

Has it always been like this...
