RAW is 'the same as ever' - 12.17.18 and 12.24.18

[Droford]

EC3's theme song and character is so weird for a face to have......

They tried to just knock off his TNA theme

[Sepholio]

I must say RAW is totes mcgotes better whenst one is inebriated.

[Droford]

Waiting for HHH to come out and make it Lucha House Rules

[Lock Jaw]

They tried to just knock off his TNA theme

That doesn't make my statement any less true

[KIRA]

EC3's theme song and character is so weird for a face to have......

Something I say every time Bobby Roode is on the screen

Why does EC3 wear his wrestling gear home under his clothes?

[RP]

So if they are gonna do what the fans want, The Revival should win right?

[Dark One]

Otis Dozovich looks like Heath Slater ate Rhyno.

[Dark One]

Why does EC3 wear his wrestling gear home under his clothes?

ALWAYS HAVE YOUR GEAR

Why does EC3 wear his wrestling gear home under his clothes?

Why does Orton never not wear his ring gear

Listen, man. There are some dark corners on the internet.

[Dark One]

Why does Orton never not wear his ring gear

His trunks are somehow incompatible with pants.

[xrodmuc316]

Why does Orton never not wear his ring gear

Pretty sure it's just easier to get your crank out when you aren't wearing pants.

[Dark One]

And they still have another episode of RAW to sit through?

Uh.. sure

Hey, actually NEW Monday Night Raw.

Seth's shirt has food stains all over it

Revival vs. American Alpha 3.0 should maybe be good.....

[Heisenberg]

Fuck this show right in the nose, waste of my fucking Monday. We need to go back to reading books. Bunch of over-connected assclowns running the damn digital imprint into the fucking ground, ima go take a shower.

All these new matches are wearing me out.

[xrodmuc316]

Seriously, how does this logic work?

Raw sucks, Smackdown much better, so have Raw dominate Smackdown at Survivor Series, then have Shane be there to apologize for Raw sucking AND lumping Smackdown into the Raw suckness?

WHAT?!?!?

[Sepholio]

Wonder if Bray is about to come out, he's had a bunch of really weird tweets in the last 20 minutes or so.

Why did they make that "new Raw" announcement now... Next two weeks are gonna be pre-taped and probably throwaway shows on Christmas Eve and NYE... smh

[Droford]

I didn't think KO was going to be recovered until like February. Huh.

February technically is soon

[Dark One]

So...

Even if "THE NEW MONDAY NIGHT RAW" hasn't been that new, the fact that they're bringing people up and bringing people back and the McMahons trying to be more "fan friendly" even as characters--at least they're aware stuff has been shit. The fact they're even admitting it is actually some progress.

I don't have a lot of hope given that I've been watching this for twenty years and I know how this goes, but even confronting the fact that the shows have been shit seems like a big step.

IT'S BOSS TIME!!!

Wish Cole would/could say It's Bitch time when Ronda comes out

[Dark One]

I really liked that roll-up. Ruby was kicking out of it, but Nattie kept enough weight on her to keep her shoulders down. Way more believable than the other 99% of the time when people lose all motor control for three seconds when unexpectedly rolled up.

Here we go again!

RAW 12.24.18

[xrodmuc316]

I've had fun joking about it all night, but that was a better episode of Raw then it has been the last month or so.

Tag match was boring, and nothing new developed, but it also didn't feel like a never ending episode either, so it was at least more watchable

[slik]

It's not 1999/2000

That isn't change and WM2000 should not be a template for the future.

RAW SPOILERS For next week



* Elias kicks off the Christmas Eve edition of RAW with a Christmas song in the ring. Elias knocks Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush with the song. They interrupt and it's time for the Miracle on 34th Street Fight.


1 - Elias defeated Bobby Lashley in a Miracle on 34th Street Fight. The highlight of the match was Elias busting open a present that had Legos in it. Elias back-dropped Lashley onto the toys and shattered a violin over his back. Lio Rush received an Egg Nog bath after the match.

2 - Bobby Roode & Chad Gable retain over The Revival.


* Drew McIntyre cuts a promo and vows to win the Royal Rumble next year.

It's on the west coast so the taping started at 8 pm for them!

3 - Finn Balor defeats Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler.

4 - Sasha, Bayley & Ember vs Mickie, Dana & Alicia. Bayley pins Mickie for the win.

[slik]

* Paul Heyman's promo is interrupted by Braun Strowman. Heyman said Brock will defeat Braun at the Royal Rumble. Braun puts santa hat and nose on Heyman to end the segment.

[Sepholio]

You know what? I think I'd cut losses on Brock, at least for the time being, and put the strap on Braun at the RR and have him and Drew face off at WM. Meanwhile, I'd have Seth win the RR and have him challenge either DB or AJ, whoever is the champ at the time. Maybe have a triple threat.

[slik]

5 - Ronda Rousey defeats Natalya. Match was described as being mostly grapple holds until the finish.

So... what was the big shake up? I haven't watched, and judging by comments on here, it seems not a lot.

more vince on tv

Vince-Steph-Shane-HHH are all now CO-GMs of both RAW and SDlive, so a lot of more McMahon family drama/power struggles.

so we going to have a 4 corner match at mania go back to 2001

[slik]

I have no doubt that's where it's all headed, another McMahon in each corner type match at a WM.

[Ruien]

HHH will pick himself though.

[Innovator]

Shane will pick himself

[Ruien]

HHH v Shane v Vince v Angle (For Steph). Amazing matchup coming.

[erickman]

vince will pick batista

[slik]

If they go that route, that's a good use for Batista since he wouldn't have to work a singles match.

So if Hawkins wins a match then Santa is real..lol

[Droford]

I guess this is now the official raw Christmas Eve thread too
.woo

[Droford]

Dolph and Tyler Breeze could be a tag team

[Mr. Nerfect]

I'm not sure who matters less at this point.

[Droford]

Nice way to announce the women's tag belts

[RP]

THIS CROWD IS RED HOT FOR THE NEW ERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[Droford]

Nothing says Christmas Eve like a Paul Heyman promo

[Droford]

Lol

[RP]

RAW has literally done the same shit for 3 weeks in a row. Drew Mcintyre/Finn/Ziggler.... Elias/Lashley... Braun comes out and says GET THESE HANDS.... Seth vs Corbin...

I think WWE is nearing its end. I have to believe Fox is thumbing threw that contract looking for ways to get out of it.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Didn't they let somebody go from Tough Enough because she constantly was fixing her bra during a training match?

[Droford]

Nattie tapped out AFTER Ronda released the hold

Jesus Christ

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Make out already

[Droford]

Jesus fucking Christ, that is fucking awful. It pisses me off that they actually think the McMahons are likable or easy to relate to. Got to have weird-looking old Vince pop out of the Santa hat at the end and make a quip and everyone chuckle. And look at what they've promised:

* John Cena. Where? When? He's on Raw and SmackDown? He was a free agent before, but way to sound desperate. "He's back." Okay. You might as well say Steve Austin is back and never do anything with him.

* Women's Tag Titles. Where? When?

* A Steel Cage Match between Dolph and Drew? Why should I give a shit?

Fuck this company.

I completely read your post in Bryan Alvarez's voice.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I like Bryan Alvarez. I don't agree with him on everything, but I'm sure we'll share general disgust in this.
