[Big Vic]

I hope the Shield is heel.

[slik]

Btw, sounds like the next PPV for THE BIG DOG to main-event in Saudi Arabia will be a week after EVOLUTION and will likely be called "Crown Jewel"

[Innovator]

They're babyfaces

THE BIG DOGS OF JUSTICE

[slik]

Yikes at the things WWE is promoting for RAW



* New RAW Acting GM Baron Corbin will be in attendance tonight, will he settle into his new authority?

* Braun Strowman says he will call out Roman Reigns -- How will The Big Dog respond to being challenged in his yard?

* Ronda Rousey carries the torch for the RAW Women's division as EVOLUTION nears

* The Revival will face The B-Team, can they defeat them this week?

[Innovator]

So Nikki will forearm Ronda with the forearm to death

[slik]

Watch Ronda have to sell more for Nikki Bella than Nia, Alexa, Stephanie, Mickie James and Alicia Foxx combined.

[ClockShot]

Braun needs to be on first so I can shut it off and spare myself any nonsense.

Corbin as the acting GM is an automatic do-not-watch as it is.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Let's go Revival!

[Arrogance]

My dick is in.

[Anybody Thrilla]

The more I think about it, this Shield business may be alright.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Next up, more zany antics from Titus Worldwide and Curtis Axel ties his boots! Stay tuned!

[Mr. Nerfect]

I like The Shield. I do. I'm not feeling it though. The thing I liked about their dynamic was that they were three new guys who were kicking the door in and not taking shit from anybody -- not The Rock, not The Undertaker.

That was almost six years ago. Now they all have histories and a completely different dynamic. Dean Ambrose is not the charismatic and eccentric leader -- he's "The Lunatic Fringe." Seth Rollins isn't the sharpshooting aerial specialist of the group -- he's "The Architect" that just likes to have fun. Roman Reigns is the Universal Champion and "The Big Dog."

I have no faith for them to treat the Shield dynamic with any sort of integrity. This is a ploy to get Roman Reigns cheered. It won't work. Crowds will boo whenever Reigns does something and cheer when Ambrose and Rollins do theirs. It will drive a bigger wedge over time. And the more Ambrose and Rollins really try to rub off that Reigns stank, the more it's just going to spread to them. Honestly, I'm worried that they are going to sully the name of The Shield by making this an "Original Shield! Starring THE BIG DOG BELIEVE THAT Roman Reigns, MONDAY NIGHT ROLLINS THE KINGSLAYER THE ARCITECT Seth Rollins and THE LUNATIC FRINGE Dean Ambrose! The ORIGINAL SHIELD! Next!"

[Anybody Thrilla]

You're probably completely right, but I'm sick now, and I need to watch no matter what happens.

[RP]

I'm expecting Roman to come out with Randy Savage corpse under one arm and Roddy Piper's under the other. THE NEW SHIELD!!!

[erickman]

lets see how good corben is as heel gm

[Anybody Thrilla]

Probably about as good as he's been as heel constable, just with no Angle roadblock.

[Choviko Man]

Mi nuh appreciate dat Dean an Seth riding di coattails of di Big Dog. Him nuh need fi share di yaad.

[Sepholio]

Really hoping for a surprise appearance from Nakamura tonight. Just want him to show up, punch Roman Reigns in his dick, smile, and ride out.

[Sepholio]

LOL OMG that boo to start off the show

[Droford]

Braun should just cash in ahead for a match inside hell in a cell to at least somewhat neutralize the shield til they find a way in

[Anybody Thrilla]

Seems odd to not have the entire Shield open this show.

[Sepholio]

Nah. I can already see it now. They are going to keep the title on Roman until Mania. Set the stage for the Shield triple threat for it at the big show. When they are beating the hell out of each other....that's when Braun will cash in and destroy them all.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Strowman never used to be afraid of multiple people. Also, who challenges someone to a 'confrontation'? Fuck. Already feeling weird about this.

[Choviko Man]

Di Big Dog ave arrived!

[Anybody Thrilla]

He knew his entrance took five minutes. That's professional.

[ClockShot]

BRAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!

[Emperor Smeat]

Seems odd to not have the entire Shield open this show.

Knowing the WWE, they probably thought all the cheers last week was due to crowds loving Roman for once.

[Dark One]

He knew his entrance took five minutes. That's professional.

Yeaaaaahhhh


I'm not super excited about the prospect of several months of Raw starting with 5 minutes of Roman's music and slow walking to the ring and then listening to the crowd's booing.

[Choviko Man]

Wah mek dem booing Roman? dem retarded?

[Anybody Thrilla]

This Roman is OK. Seems like a proper heel.

[slik]

Braun tellin' it like it is

[ClockShot]

Those hands put your ass in an ambulance AND flipped it over with you inside it.

[Choviko Man]

Roman Reigns a guh mash up Braun Strowman wah an jackass

[slik]

Roman saying his hands can lift titles while Braun can only lift Ambulances...ok

[ClockShot]

Oooooh.

Braun and Roman inside Hell in a Cell?

Goody.

[ClockShot]

I like Dolph's record scratch and him interrupting.

[Choviko Man]

Roman Reigns telling it like it is. Strowman a coward.

[slik]

UGH Dolph

[owenbrown]

fuck off Dolph

[Anybody Thrilla]

Seth must have stomped the curl out of Dolph's hair.

[Emperor Smeat]

I like Dolph's record scratch and him interrupting.

Yeup, his entrance routine actually makes sense for once.

[Choviko Man]

Wah mek nuh put AJ Styles an Samoa Joe inna Hell in the Cell?

[Savio]

Zig please eat the pin again.

[Emperor Smeat]

This is pretty much the same setup from the Lashley/Reigns vs Revival feud a couple months ago.

[Loose Cannon]

well everything interesting was just killed by these two.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Does EVERYONE have to say EVERYTHING as if I have no idea what has been going on for the past thirty years?

[slik]

Baron Corbin has CENA NUFF

[ClockShot]

Ugh. I can't picture Braun teaming with Roman Reigns.

Hope when the bell rings Braun just kills him.

[Dark One]

Does EVERYONE have to say EVERYTHING as if I have no idea what has been going on for the past thirty years?

Yes

[Dark One]

Yo dawg,

I think everyone guessed that was going to be the match 5 minutes ago.

[slik]

A Tag Team Match Playa

[Evil Vito]

Boring ass main event.

Passing on this show.

[ClockShot]

:roll:

Why's Corbin still out here?

[Savio]

The segment seems very familiar except with Bobby Lashley in Brauns place

[slik]

Dolph Ziggler looks like a lesbian

[Loose Cannon]

are Dolph and Drew really the top two heels on Raw right now?

[ClockShot]

Again?

Good night.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Oh great, another twenty five minute Baron Corbin barn burner to open the show.

[Shisen Kopf]

This show sucks

[Savio]

This is pretty much the same setup from the Lashley/Reigns vs Revival feud a couple months ago.

Oh yeah this one.

[slik]

Corbin 'doing good' in his current role IMO

[Savio]

I know Finn needs tonget some heat back but Please put a bullet in this feud quickly.

I identify with Baron Corbin because he wears normal clothes instead of tights.

If the suicide was to happen, now would be the time.

[Jordan]

It shouldn't be too hard to find where this guy is sitting tbh.

[Arrogance]

Illuminaughti

[Anybody Thrilla]

They keep talking about Balor not being prepared for Corbin as if he hasn't wrestled him literally six times or so on television alone in the past month and a half.

[Shisen Kopf]

He can't wrestle

[Anybody Thrilla]

That suicide business is awful, but even if the dude was kidding at first, I could see him going through with it for real when Titus O'Neill and Curt Hawkins start their dice game, or whatever the fuck.

I could see a mass suicide in protest of WWE's past 10 years of Raw bookings. When I was at Joey Janella's Spring Break I saw a guy with a WWF Attitude tattoo on his arm and a 2 Sweet tattoo on his calf, I'd expect him to go down hard.

as soon as Braun and Roman shook hands, the air left the arena

IT'S BOSS TIME!!!!

1 match in the last 9 months poor dana

[slik]

Dana's first match in 9 months

[Lock Jaw]

For a throw-away event, WWE is dedicating too much time on this Taker-HHH match.

That's because it is Taker/HHH and they are so much better and more important than any of the current active roster.

Graphics for 'Super Showdown' look like WM32 graphics

This show is terrible. I'm done. In case you wanna know what else is gonna happen

Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre kick off Raw, and Baron Corbin joins them. A tag match will get made

- Finn Balor vs. Baron Corbin

- Graphics will run throughout the night for Shawn Michaels

- Sasha Banks vs. Dana Brooke

- IC Title: Seth Rollins vs. Kevin Owens

- B-Team vs. Revival

- Backstage segments with Corbin/Braun, another with Elias.

- Bella Twins vs. Riott Squad next week will be advertised, as well as B-Team vs. The Revival

- Natalya & Ronda Rousey interrupted by Alexa Bliss & Mickie James

- Natalya vs. Alicia Fox

- Bobby Lashley vs. The Ascension

- Dean Ambrose vs. Jinder Mahal. Set up by a backstage segment

- Elias will have his song interrupted.

- Roman Reigns & Braun Strowman vs. Dolph Ziggler & Drew McIntyre

I wont lie. Dana's lips get me hard.

Where did you get the scoops Shisen?

Either Dana improved a bit or its been that long since she last wrestled that I don't even remember how she was before in the ring.

Fightful.com

Where did you get the scoops Shisen?

Fightful.com has been leaking the weekly script for weeks with people assuming they have someone deep inside Creative as a source.

If they can make a ton of money from it, WWE wouldn't hesitate to do some revisionist history on this era and the mid-2000s era of stars. They already do it with the Women's Revolution stuff and the Bellas' role being way over-inflated.

[Jordan]

Did Seth just mock Jeff Hardy with the awkward clap he does?

[Lock Jaw]

DAMN. Kevin Owens music just caused my set top box to reboot.

[Jordan]

I hope KO wins the gold.

[Dark One]

KO vs Seth? You have my attention.

[Lock Jaw]

Came back up, but now it is rebooting again......

[Droford]

some fan wearing an ace ventura shirt lol

[Jordan]

KO looking in good shape, for KO.

[Droford]

no WHAT? chant

[Lock Jaw]

Ok, back up now again... match has started.....

[slik]

Watch Kevin Owens lose in 60 seconds...

[Jordan]

no WHAT? chant

Maybe it is finished? :cool:

[Anybody Thrilla]

Finally, a match.

[KIRA]

Seth Rollins versus Kevin Owens I am in

[Jordan]

Seth lost the gold boot, thankfully.

[Sepholio]

You know ive realized just how much I hate the way Cole says Seth Rollins. Hes not an Egyptian God man. His same is Seth and the h is not silent. Please eat a brick Michael Cole.

[Jordan]

Good lord that clothesline off the stairs was weak.

[Lock Jaw]

Seth lost the gold boot, thankfully.

That was only part of his Thanos cosplay

[Savio]

I hate this Johnsonville lady

[Jordan]

I do too. And she'd making so much money for being like that.

[Jordan]

I ate the whole pizza already.

[Jordan]

I'm pretty pumped for All In. Wasn't going to divulge initially but what the hell was I thinking, this shit will be great.

[Jordan]

He does that move so much better than Cena.

[Loose Cannon]

is this the first of 25 matches we'll see over the next two months between these two? not that they wouldn't have good matches, but you know how it goes

[Jordan]

I want to see KO face everyone he's my favorite.

[Emperor Smeat]

According to Vince Russo, the tweet and suicide threat by Jason Sensation for tonight's show was nothing more than just a sick joke by Sensation.

[Anybody Thrilla]

"Holy shit" for the Stunner? Or did Jason Sensation go through with it?

[Jordan]

Kick wham stunner!!!!

[Jordan]

Damn this is good!

[Lock Jaw]

This is probably a great match, but I'm barely paying attention to it, because in the end it won't matter.

[Sepholio]

Good match

[KIRA]

I wonder how stone cold feels about Owens using his finisher but it not ending the match

[slik]

Feel like this will be one of those feuds that now lasts for months but KO loses clean each and every single match.

[Jordan]

Certainly a great crowd for Summerslam weekend next year.

[Anybody Thrilla]

What makes Owens a heel?

[Anybody Thrilla]

I wonder how stone cold feels about Owens using his finisher but it not ending the match

Nobody hits it quite like Stone Cold. He's probably fine with it.

[slik]

Seth has a lot of ass sweat

[Emperor Smeat]

IC title match was really great.

[Jordan]

Damn! KO had me feeling like he could do it! You guys can pre complain about this being overbooked in the future but so far I don't mind! KO's matches are great.

[slik]

Feel like this will be one of those feuds that now lasts for months but KO loses clean each and every single match.

Ahem, match one, complete

[Lock Jaw]

What makes Owens a heel?

He's French-Canadian!

[Lock Jaw]

What makes Owens a heel?

He's fat!

[Lock Jaw]

What makes Owens a heel?

He doesn't like to have fun!

[KIRA]

One more question the IC belt does it have
Anything to Mark the champion like the WWE titles have name plates it doesn't have those or side plates

[Anybody Thrilla]

What do they mean by Triple Header?

[Jordan]

Okay! I'm good, gonna go play Far Cry 4!

[KIRA]

I would have given my wisdom teeth for Stroman to just turn around and boot Roman in the side of the head after his catchphrase

[Lock Jaw]

What do they mean by Triple Header?

THERE ARE THREE THINGS!!

[slik]

Man what a bad rest of the card tonight

[Lock Jaw]

This Peppermint movie seems pretty much like it is supposed to be a Punisher movie

[slik]

leesa mattress

[Lock Jaw]

Hyped for Mae Young Classic

[Droford]

KO not taking it well

[Anybody Thrilla]

Oh my. What's going on here.

[Dark One]

KEVIN OWENS IS ALL IN

[slik]

weird KO in ring r/n 'crying' sort of on RAW

[Emperor Smeat]

Guess Owens lost his smile.

[Jordan]

KO going back to NXT I THINK

[Lock Jaw]

Owens actually staying away for a good period of time could do wonders for him.

[KIRA]

Is Owens fixing to give the crowd his I gave you everything I had Mick Foley speech

[slik]

Kevin Owens announces he quits and walks out...hmm, where is this storyline going

[Anybody Thrilla]

Owens actually staying away for a good period of time could do wonders for him.

No wonders will be done for the fans.

[Anybody Thrilla]

FUCK OFF B TEAM

[Lock Jaw]

No wonders will be done for the fans.

Not in the immediate

[Dark One]

Raw until the end of the year:

8:00: Roman Reigns music plays

8:05: Roman Reigns finally makes it to the ring and takes in the boos

8:15: Baron Corbin makes a match for himself.

8:20: Baron Corbin match starts after commercials.

8:50: Baron Corbin Match finally ends.

9:00: B Team backstage segment

9:05: Recap of earlier Roman reigns segment

9:20: B Team Match

9:40: Five minute women's match


etc etc etc

Damn, missed it by 20 minutes

[Jordan]

At NXT BK they showed KO in the crowd. It's not unusual to show him because he goes to NXT often, but I felt like something was up. I predict he goes back home.

[Jordan]

Was going to log off Raw but KO segment happened and now the top tag team in the sport is on so I will stay for this.

[Lock Jaw]

Smackdown sez: Tag Team rassling is serious main event business.

Raw sez: Tag teams are present.

[Emperor Smeat]

:eek: people actually paid money for B Team shirts when a magic marker and a white shirt would be way cheaper (and just as lazy) to do.

[slik]

If KO gets sent back to NXT his booking will improve by about 95% tbh

[Jordan]

Oh they are facing the Revival, nvm. Peace out.

[KIRA]

What was so wrong with the B Team keeping Battle Scars as their theme it was perfect

[Anybody Thrilla]

Non-title match, eh? Revival ends the B Team's "undefeated streak" and goes on to lose again to the B Team at HIAC. Oh my.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Anyone else hate Curtis Axel's pants?

[Lock Jaw]

I happen to hate ALL pants, thank you.

[KIRA]

Anyone else hate Curtis Axel's pants?

Right here chief

[KIRA]

I happen to hate ALL pants, thank you.

What else would you have Elias wear

[slik]

Randy Orton hates pants

[slik]

Will be really funny if KO is sent to NXT to listen to people on twitter bitch about it

[slik]

And they will bitch

[slik]

God, some of those people probably never even shower

[Anybody Thrilla]

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THREE SUNDAYS FROM NOW??

[Dark One]

Non-title match, eh? Revival ends the B Team's "undefeated streak" and goes on to lose again to the B Team at HIAC. Oh my.

SHOCKING

[slik]

[Lock Jaw]

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THREE SUNDAYS FROM NOW??

Dammit, I came to make this post

[Emperor Smeat]

Said it last week but RAW's commentary is way more tolerable when they are not constantly bickering with each other.

Huge improvement overall since Renee's appearance a couple weeks ago.

[Lock Jaw]

There were a few people in between them

[KIRA]

The Revival really do like their full contact sweaty man hugs

[slik]

I would like to compile a list of talents I think should go back to NXT

It has nothing to do with their in-ring skills, I just want them to have good booking again.

[Emperor Smeat]

Last time the Revival made a passionate speech, they got jobbed out and ignored for months afterwards.

At least neither of them uttered the forbidden "W" word this time.

[slik]

poit jacking off r/n

[Lock Jaw]

The Revival really do like their full contact sweaty man hugs

THEY GO HARD

[Anybody Thrilla]

There were a few people in between them

Right, I remember a ladder match or two.

[KIRA]

The Revival are wasted on Raw they need to be on Smackdown where they know what the f*** to do with tag teams

[Anybody Thrilla]

NXT's main event should be good this week.

[KIRA]

I can't wait till Ricochet gets on the main roster where he will no doubt replace Sin Cara

[Lock Jaw]

I hope they actually let Elias perform tonight.....

[KIRA]

NXT's main event should be good this week.

last week's was fun and Dunne

[Anybody Thrilla]

When was the last time Elias had a match?

[Droford]

Who is going to interrupt Elias

[Emperor Smeat]

:eek: a crowd that actually appreciates Elias' greatness on guitar.

[KIRA]

It's going to be a black day when we roll into a state and or country Elias actually likes

[Lock Jaw]

When was the last time Elias had a match?

I was just thinking about his feud with Seth Rollins and his attempt to win the IC Title...... that just abruptly ended....

[Anybody Thrilla]

It's going to be a black day when we roll into a state and or country Elias actually likes

You can't play the guitar that often without eventually starting to love to have fun.
