Please wait until I have called your name.

[ClockShot]

Ugh. Loved the Shane and Daniel Bryan chemistry. Thought that bond would never be broken as opposed to the revolving door that is Raw mgmt.

[KIRA]

Somebody got some splainin to do

[KIRA]

I say again you CANNOT ever hope to turn DB heel against a face Shane

[ClockShot]

Please kiss and make up and all of this was a bad dream.

[rez]

AWKWARD


https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ftYA-iANLJ0/maxresdefault.jpg

[KIRA]

Please kiss and make up and all of this was a bad dream.

The only kissing I want between them is a Judas kiss

[slik]

Newest member of the roster backstage tonight


Rockstar Spud

[KIRA]

Its up to Bryan to stop Shane and his megalomania

[DAMN iNATOR]

You can't let the past color your emotions as a ref, Shane-O'. Should've stayed impartial - but you didn't, and DB did. He made the right call.

[slik]

Fuck Shane

TeamDbry

[KIRA]

Look Shane, Sami Skull and Kevin Bulk are just two guys tryin to feed their families

[KIRA]

Shane cannot argue with that air tight logic

[DAMN iNATOR]

OH SHIT.

[KIRA]

ooooooo

[DAMN iNATOR]

Fuck Shane

TeamDbry

OH HELL YEAH

[ClockShot]

Hmmmm.

Ok.

[KIRA]

How can you hate this guy he's willing to fall on the sword for his friends and foes.

[Emperor Smeat]

Deep down Bryan was hoping Shane would legit fire him so he could finally have all the dream matches he wants on the indies.

[rez]

Look at ya'll hating on Shane. He's a professional.

[KIRA]

Look at ya'll hating on Shane. He's a professional.

We gotta part ways on this one bro. Shane's madness is growing

[rez]

You wait and see. Cartman and Sami going to take advantage of DB's kindness

[Anthony Hopkins]

Where is Roman Reigns?

[ClockShot]

Where is Roman Reigns?

Not on this show.

[rez]

Where is Roman Reigns?

Will you sign my Magic DVD?

[ClockShot]

Good match.

[slik]

Gable/Benjamin dominated Uso's to a clean victory.

[Emperor Smeat]

With Gable busting out suplexes, really want to see a match between him and Lesnar. Record breaking amount of suplexes that would be thrown.

[ClockShot]

Dolph winning the U.S. title.

Who woulda thought?

[Evil Vito]

I thought that opening segment was very well done

[KIRA]

Wouldve bet money Ziggler was finished.....unless this is just a way to give the title to Roode which they couldve done last night.....WHAT IS THE LOGIC HERE

[KIRA]

I thought that opening segment was very well done

Kept me interested start to finish

[Evil Vito]

Yay, more WWE doing something good but making sure to excessively promote it because HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KIRA]

They'll have the privilege of being put down like dogs by Asuka

[rez]

the blonde girl gonna hit her own teammate again by accident?

[slik]

Please don't give Sarah Logan a mic...

[ClockShot]

Let my dog run around outside, I come back to a women's tag match.

Is Teddy Long in charge tonight?

[KIRA]

I'm trying to figure out what Liv Morgans appeal is Carmella sort of makes her redundant

Sara Logan is supposed to be Nida so I got that

[Emperor Smeat]

Last week's lumberjack match really showed how thin Smackdown is for faces. Its just Charlotte and Naomi since Becky's out for another couple weeks.

[slik]

I am so kanefused


do raw and smackdown men/women all get a rumble match...are there 4 rumble matches this year...

[ClockShot]

Liv Morgan must spend a lot of time with the WWE seamstress.

I think she's had different ring gear every week since she got called up.

[Emperor Smeat]

What is Kofi's costume supposed to be?

[rez]

BHHWAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHA RUSEV CLAUS

[Droford]

Lol Rusev Claus

[KIRA]

What is Kofi's costume supposed to be?

Gingerbread man

[Emperor Smeat]

Big E going to snap into a badass submission machine if his pancakes get disrespected again.

[slik]

Rusev Claus is here #HappyRusevDay

[KIRA]

RUSEV CLAUS HAS ONE LIST!
AND ALL OF YOUR LITTLE BAD ASS KIDS ARE ON IT!

[rez]

I was so over the holidays but rusev has made my heart grow 3 sizes.

[Savio]

Well Rusev is full comedy now, but I think it could work for him like it worked for Angle.

[ClockShot]

I'M HERE TO SELL CELL PHONES, I'M HERE TO SELL CELL PHONES

[KIRA]

I was so over the holidays but rusev has made my heart grow 3 sizes.

Yep starting to really feel the spirit gonna hand out MACHKA kicks to my family and people on the street.

[ClockShot]

Ah, the record player is working again.

[ClockShot]

The last 12 years, sure.

The last few months, Dolph, is a totally different story.

[KIRA]

"You lookin at the real deal now" should follow that record scratch

[rez]

not the most charismatic ? well, that'd be a decent time for jeff to jump to SDL if there ever was one..he still injured?

[KIRA]

The last 12 yrs and it got me the US title.

[ClockShot]

I AM PERFECTION!

God damn, I miss that theme. Go back to it, Dolph.

[Emperor Smeat]

Ziggy only had 2 US reigns?

Feels like he held the belt a lot more although guess that was just the IC instead.

[KIRA]

Is dolph pulling a Jericho?

suit and speaking style

[ClockShot]

And then, the curse hit.

[Savio]

Every opportunity?

[rez]

please no glorious music play...need that feud to be over.

[Evil Vito]

Dolph left out when he was named World Heavyweight Champion for like a 15 minute title reign in 2011

[KIRA]

Just glossed right over him winning Survivor Series by himself

[Emperor Smeat]

For a championship celebration, this has been really boring soo far.

[KIRA]

Its like they suddenly remembered that Dolph was super over before the killed his pushes

[Droford]

Oh no..Dolphs going bye bye

...

What's next

[ClockShot]

Piss on it, spit on it, kick it, throw it in the trash, DO SOMETHING CRAZY!

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the crowd chanting the "Goodbye" song to Ziggy.

[owenbrown]

Vacant the new U.S. champ?

[rez]

noooooooooo

[Evil Vito]

I actually think that was a reasonably good segment, but Dolph's battling against years of trained apathy from the crowd.

[rez]

told you so. don't trust them, DB.

[KIRA]

I dunno I like this whole "I won it just to prove I could and fuck you guys" attitude

[KIRA]

See DB is just practical

[slik]

I'm pretty over New Day at this point. Every gimmick can only last so long.

[KIRA]

I'm pretty over New Day at this point. Every gimmick can only last so long.

Taker milked the deadman thing for yrs

Triple H has milked the idea that he would like to be seen as an actual legend for yrs

[Droford]

Are those..booty cakes?

[Emperor Smeat]

For someone of Cena's status, you'd think the GMs of both brands would do their best to lock up Cena to a deal instead of letting him keep appearing on competitor brand shows.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

HAPPY RUSEV DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Emperor Smeat]

https://i.imgur.com/wlthth7.gif

[rez]

Go Rusev

[KIRA]

LOL at Big E getting in the ring

[slik]

Taker milked the deadman thing for yrs

Triple H has milked the idea that he would like to be seen as an actual legend for yrs

Call me when they start resorting to throwing pancakes dressed as dogs

[Droford]

Its a Ru (sev) Day yes it is

[KIRA]

I would celebrate Rusev day every year if it replaced this sham of a pagan holiday

[rez]

If New Day ever disbands, I want to see Big E be managed by Ernest "The Cat" Miller. That's gold, Jerry! gold!

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Rusev hiding his Rusev Day brand underwear.

[slik]

New Day has stolen Rusev's underwear. That is where this is at. Alright.

[KIRA]

Rusev just hands out beatings every year

one or two lucky people get the Accolade

[rez]

lol..dying over here

[KIRA]

Rusev is about to deck Xaviers halls

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

This is not a happy Rusev Day

[Emperor Smeat]

New Day vs Rusev Day tag match was pretty good overall.

[Droford]

Orton looks stupid with his hair grown out again

[KIRA]

God Orton looks 33

[rez]

Orton looks stupid with his hair grown out again

Let him be. He no longer requires the meathead look..he's perfected aerodynamics for the RKO beyond mortal comprehension.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Rusev Day is ruined. No one cares about this main event.

[KIRA]

Orton looks stupid with his hair grown out again

Orton has pulled a reverse One-Punch Man


his dedication and training made his hair grow

[Savio]

Suprised faces entered first.... something is up.

[KIRA]

Sooo they acknowledge Nakamuras nickname is the king of Strong style in his bracket but still call him the artist?

Vince is real stupid sometimes

[Savio]

Guess I was wrong

[KIRA]

Well well, look who's still in the main event picture

[KIRA]

Can we just call them team Canada

[rez]

Can we just call them team Canada

5 Canadians (cough sorry, 3 Indians), 2 USA'ns, and 1 hibachi grill worker...correct?

[Emperor Smeat]

Sooo they acknowledge Nakamuras nickname is the king of Strong style in his bracket but still call him the artist?

Vince is real stupid sometimes

Should just call him "The Artist of Strong Style" to have the best of both worlds.

Or stop letting Vince decide on nicknames and random name changes.

[KIRA]

5 Canadians (cough sorry, 3 Indians), 2 USA'ns, and 1 hibachi grill worker...correct?

YES

Sami could bomb a building and he'd be the last person on the suspect list

[rez]

YES

Sami could bomb a building and he'd be the last person on the suspect list

Fuck that Dustin Diamond looking wannabe heel.

[KIRA]

he is murdering Sami

[rez]

:heart: I love that AJ and Nakamura color coordinated

[rez]

Great teamwork between the 3 to end it

[#1-norm-fan]

Might have to check out this Ziggler segment. It actually sounds like something different/good character development for once.

[Evil Vito]

Colin Delaney vs. Hideo Itami!

[Tom Guycott]

I'm trying to figure out what Liv Morgans appeal is Carmella sort of makes her redundant

Sara Logan is supposed to be Nida so I got that

I'm going to be 100% honest with you: there was a period of time in NXT where I legit confused the two if Carmella wasn't standing next to Enzo and Cass.

Seriously, if they were guys, they would have been a "brothers" tag team ages ago.

[Tom Guycott]

Well Rusev is full comedy now, but I think it could work for him like it worked for Angle.

It has grown on me... and is *worlds* better than yet another stoic, generic foreign heel. There is *something* to him, and gives Aiden something to do as his herald/manager/tag team partner. As stupid as it seems, I am actually glad it is getting them over.

Makes me wonder if Rusev would have been able to run with that "TV Champion" thing as a gimmick with the stolen monitor. The world will never know...

[Tom Guycott]

"You lookin at the real deal now" should follow that record scratch

I don't agree, as Dolph hasn't put enough sorry asses out on the street to warrant it.

[Tom Guycott]

Let him be. He no longer requires the meathead look..he's perfected aerodynamics for the RKO beyond mortal comprehension.

If he's going to continue this look, he should also go back to "Burn In My Light".

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Colin looks like Daniel Bryan now

[Anybody Thrilla]

You guys. Liv Morgan is hot.

[Sepholio]

That is an accurate assessment there sir.

[Savio]

It has grown on me... and is *worlds* better than yet another stoic, generic foreign heel. There is *something* to him, and gives Aiden something to do as his herald/manager/tag team partner. As stupid as it seems, I am actually glad it is getting them over.

Makes me wonder if Rusev would have been able to run with that "TV Champion" thing as a gimmick with the stolen monitor. The world will never know...i think it works for him because he actually seems like a funny person unlike Khali and Vladimir who made the turn to comedy and were not.

[Lock Jaw]

You guys. Liv Morgan is hot.

Liv Morgan > Mandy Rose

[Lock Jaw]

(Both v hot though)

[KIRA]

I'm going to be 100% honest with you: there was a period of time in NXT where I legit confused the two if Carmella wasn't standing next to Enzo and Cass.

Seriously, if they were guys, they would have been a "brothers" tag team ages ago.

I would say the idea that more Women aren't "related" in WWE is shocking but then the roster is thin but god knows there have been enough also ran blondes to pull it off.

[KIRA]

You guys. Liv Morgan is hot.

So you say but I see "Joisey native gimmick number 4" counting Enzo and Cass.

[Anybody Thrilla]

So you say but I see "Joisey native gimmick number 4" counting Enzo and Cass.

What has she done on the main roster to portray that gimmick so far? Nobody was calling Adam Rose "Leo Krueger" when he got called up. All she has is the same attire. All she has done so far on the main roster is be hot, beat some people down, and be in a couple tag matches. If somebody never watched NXT (and a lot of people haven't), they wouldn't even know what you were talking about.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Unrelated, why was Itami a face on Raw, but seemingly a heel on 205 Live the very next night?

[DAMN iNATOR]

So you say but I see "Joisey native gimmick number 4" counting Enzo and Cass.

So some made up measure of relative attractiveness is based on where someone's from? I'm struggling to see what your argument is here or what it has to do with ABT's post.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Unrelated, why was Itami a face on Raw, but seemingly a heel on 205 Live the very next night?

I think the word is seemingly. Just because he said "respect me" doesn't mean he's going towards his heel NXT run. Respect isn't a solely a heel thing. Bret Hart was a face for years talking about respect.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I think he looked like two completely different characters on Raw and on 205 Live. On Monday, he just loved to have fun. On Tuesday, he was kicking respect out of Delaney's chest.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Liv Morgan > Mandy Rose

I guess it's subjective but I actually feel the opposite.

Sarah Logan also quite the hot braud, IMO. Actually seems pretty decent in-ring wise, but could use a few crash courses in how to make yourself understandable in promos...even Khali hears her like, "WTF Did she even SAY?! :wtf:"

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

On Monday, he just loved to have fun.

Love how this is part of the wrestling zeitgeist now. :lol:

[#1-norm-fan]

Did I miss where that started? Someone mentioned it a few weeks ago and it sounded familiar but now I'm seeing it a lot and I don't know exactly where it came from.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Well I mean it kind of suddenly happened (the parodying). But every commentator whenever a babyface acts zany for the past decade plus going "X LIKES TO HAVE FUN" created it.

[Savio]

Which is stupid because who doesn't like to have fun?

...was debating of making a youtube compilation of the announcers saying it

[Anybody Thrilla]

I think you should.
