The Ruien Returns to Raw Thread!

[Ruien]

Woooo out of training! I have a television the hotel I am put in.

Also a fucking Lieutenant now in the Army fuckers.

[Bad News Gertner]

Your stint with Team Gorm has served you well.

[Ruien]

Was the first thing on my resume.

[Blonde Moment]

That should go a long ways in Trump's America

[slik]

Stickied!

Welcome back -- I have a feeling you picked a HUGE show to return to!

[slik]

News sites reporting the following are all backstage:



Batista
STING
The Rock

[slik]

And Congratulations on being a Lieutenant!!

[Ruien]

Hell ya. Hoping for a big Rollins day. Still believe WWE should have went with him as the face of the company. If he takes out Brock though maybe they will see him as the present.

[Ruien]

How many weeks till Mania?

[Ruien]

Hmmm. Should I go to Mania?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Happy 70th Birthday, "Nature Boy"!
9PKJTnqhhkQ

[Wehttam]

ric's dead junkie son leaves less shame on his family than you

[DAMN iNATOR]

News sites reporting the following are all backstage:



Batista
STING
The Rock



Probably just for Flair's birthday bash. I wouldn't be surprised to see Orton show up for it too.

[mike adamle]

Hmmm. Should I go to Mania?

Mania doesn't look all that great this year. NXT Takeover on the Friday before Mania looks insane though. Go to that.

[Sepholio]

man kinda pissed. Was gonna go to RAW tonight but scheduling conflicts prevented it :( Could go to the Smackdown house show still but meh.

[Droford]

Charlotte gonna <strike>beat up</strike> verbally abuse her dad on his birthday for heel heat

"You never Main Evented Wrestlemania!"

[ClockShot]

I'm really not looking forward to much.

I'm thinking they just loaded up the show just for a ratings grab. Roman's back (but is he cleared), Flair's birthday with a ton of legends guests, NXT call ups in action.

The question as always. How long before they put me to sleep.

:lol:

I was thinking the same thing. He'll get cheered for a little while. Then it's back to normal.

[rez]

Sting better be on television but doubting it

[Droford]

wwe needed to sign jay lethal for 3 hours

[RP]

My source just called me. He informed me that Roman will open the show and his leukemia is stage 4. He also will announce his retirement and he's entering the HoF this year. He'll also announce that he's shooting Thunder In Paradise 2 with the Hulkster.

[Droford]

hes been shooting some movie in hawaii

[Evil Vito]

Let’s go Roman

[Droford]

How can I miss you if you wont stay away

[GD]

They're doing an emotional video package. This means good news, yeah?

[Ruien]

WOOOO RAW.

[Dark One]

Roman is going to announce that radiation has given him superpowers and he's now Reignman.

[KIRA]

For his birthday the company should parade out all of Ric's Ex-Wives demanding alimony

[slik]

Oh wwe w/ those close-ups, so classy

[Ruien]

So Roman eventually beat Brock?

[rez]

He's just showing up to promote the Paige movie

[ClockShot]

Dean snapping and going heel that very night was great.

[KIRA]

It doesn't matter if you have cancer or not the WWE love their shocked faces in the crowd shot

[Droford]

Dean Ambrose gonna be completely forgetful

[GD]

He's baaaaack!

[RP]

No matter what happens. I think this will end in a ...

6-way TAG MATCH PLAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[ClockShot]

Vince to commentary: "CLAP! LOUDER! LOUDER!"

[Droford]

i wish Cole would stop clapping

[KIRA]

Vince must have been orgasming in tears over this on the one hand he finally got Roman the monster cheer he's been looking for for five years on the other hand his cash cow is leaving with no guarantee of ever being able to come back

[Evil Vito]

That Roman Reigns fan on Twitter just exploded in orgasm

[Droford]

All you have to do is

Ro Lie Ve

[Emperor Smeat]

Not that huge of a pop for Reigns but off to a better start than with last week's mostly dead crowd.

[ClockShot]

WAS THAT DAVID ARQUETTE?!

[RP]

BAWWWWWW GAWD WHAT IS DAVID ARQUETTE DOING HERE? HE'S HERE FOR THE BELT!

[GD]

Not the best time to be chopping onions.

[KIRA]

Let's be honest the first hour is completely his if he wants it

[Evil Vito]

David Arquette for the run in

[RP]

I think this long entrance is just a ploy to make Undertaker jealous and get him back for WM35.

[rez]

Soak it all in, Roman. They'll eventually turn against you faster than they did for Chuck Pagano.

[KIRA]

Roman Reigns coming back from battling cancer still play second fiddle to the Wrestlemania sign I love Vince McMahon he's such a cock

[Evil Vito]

Reigns/Arquette at WM

[Droford]

in for one "not the Size of the dog but the fight in the dog"

[slik]

David Arquette sighting

[RP]

All jokes aside though...

Where's Alexa Bliss?

[ClockShot]

Now the crowd's mellowed a bit

[Droford]

WEVE ALL GOT LEUKEMIA

[slik]

Roman prob going to insert himself into the WM main-event, Ronda vs Charlotte vs Roman

[ClockShot]

Just found out Vince had this on repeat on his portable cd player all day. MP3 players and smart phones are too technical for him.

[Droford]

hoping for a 1 more match chant

[Ruien]

Happy for Roman but I want this sergeant to be over.

[rez]

Good thing this isn't in Lafayette, Louisiana

[RP]

If Roman just tells everyone he lied, this would be the single greatest heel turn that could ever be accomplished.

[KIRA]

Wait a minute Roman isn't it kind of arrogant to think that God favors you

[rez]

God it down a little, Roman..

[GD]

If Roman just tells everyone he lied, this would be the single greatest heel turn that could ever be accomplished.

Ola re vato, I lied homes...

[Droford]

If Roman just tells everyone he lied, this would be the single greatest heel turn that could ever be accomplished.

Mark Henry Approved

[GD]

God it down a little, Roman..

Let the man speak his heart

[slik]

Sort of bored w/ this so far tbh (ducks)

[ClockShot]

Oh boy.

[KIRA]

I'm actually going to say the same thing ease up on the god throttle man but it is his moment so whatever

[GD]

Wooooo! Update!

[ClockShot]

Spit it out.

[RP]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Evil Vito]

Hell yeah! Good for Roman.

[GD]

Remission! Fuck yeah!

[Emperor Smeat]

:y: Reigns spearing his leukemia back into remission.

[Sepholio]

Roman vs Brock tonight lol

[slik]

WRAP

[GD]

A class act indeed.

[KIRA]

McMahon backstage right now wishing there was a way to liquidize those cheers and inject it straight into his veins so he could just veg out for an hour

[ClockShot]

Oooooh. Some empty seats over on the camera side.

[GD]

Don’t be a hater, Slik.

Jk
Glad there's not too many people that can beat cancer a second time Roman is the man

[Ruien]

ROLLINS!!!

[slik]

Glad to hear he is healthy

[slik]

Now, no more 20 minute promos to eat the beginning of RAW no matter who it is, plz

[GD]

Ah man! Would’ve loved to see Dean come out.

[rez]

Cool

[DAMN iNATOR]

I'm glad he's feeling all right I truly am now we can go back to booing the s*** out of him

Yep. Love the man, doesn't mean any of us have to like his wrestling.

[slik]

Letting this week slide

[GD]

Now, no more 20 minute promos to eat the beginning of RAW no matter who it is, plz

When did you transform into that one wrestling fan who makes extremely uncomfortable comments?

[KIRA]

Letting this week slide

Oh yeah I don't plan to do it this week or next week or the week after but at least now when it does happen he knows that it comes from a place of love

[DAMN iNATOR]

Where the fuck was Dean though? He went heel for a bit but he's back to being a face now, so it's weird and slightly disappointing that he didn't greet his friend.

[ClockShot]

Alright. Aleister Black.

[Ruien]

Ohhhh. Is Black the new Boring Corbin?

[GD]

Why does Black have an NXT nameplate? He didn’t have one back in NXT.

[Dark One]

When did you transform into that one wrestling fan who makes extremely uncomfortable comments?

When Droford died

[A.J.K]

Black teaming with Ricochet.

NICE

[slik]

Yes, new talent Aleister here to shine!

[GD]

Damn Ricochet!

[slik]

Future Star Ricochet here too

[GD]

When Droford died

What?

[Evil Vito]

LMAO Revival gonna job again

[Emperor Smeat]

Oooooh. Some empty seats over on the camera side.

Could have been worse since this show got a boost in ticket sales once it was announced Reigns would be on the show.

[ClockShot]

Ouch. Champs get the jobber entrance.

[RP]

This is good

GOOD

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

COMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMECIAL!

[Droford]

ricochet hurt his leg

uhoh

[xrodmuc316]

Put the strap on that man right now. Brock and Seth can't too the Big Dog anymore!

[GD]

Yes, new talent Aleister here to shine!

I think The Revival, Black, and Ricochet could’ve used that time Roman used for an hour long classic.

Roman: Remission, believe that, bye!

[A.J.K]

Ricochet and Aleistar are Incredible

[Droford]

What?

lol

[A.J.K]

Much better crowd this week

[ClockShot]

Hey! Even Cole remember the no more rematches promise.

[KIRA]

I don't know about Aleister blacks chances on the main roster I've heard that there are two things that McMahon hates and that's Gothic gimmicks and Strikers

[slik]

No more automatic rematch clauses haha

[Droford]

I wanna see Black vs Mcintyre at WM

[Emperor Smeat]

Revival getting the monkey paw treatment for their release request.

Sure they got the RAW tag belts even though its arguably the most worthless belt in WWE but nothing else about their booking or status changed. Even RAW's tag division is pretty much in the same sorry state.

[GD]

He so moody

[slik]

They didn't show their entrances bc Roman ran long -- which, given the circumstances -- is more than ok this week.

[ClockShot]

I see Charly Caruso's face. And that's it.

Too much black on. She's blending in with everything.

[KIRA]

Corbin is the new X pac

[A.J.K]

Johnny Wrestling in a suit

[ClockShot]

What the?

Flair's party gets red carpet treatment?

Backstage.

That's so lame.

[slik]

I like Elias's shirt

[Emperor Smeat]

Lacey pulling a "Jericho" screams of them still having no idea what to really do with her.

At least with Jericho, it was a funny gag and only lasted for a couple of weeks.

[Droford]

Ambrose's purge sirens are gone

[ClockShot]

No rematches, Dean.

THEY PROMISED!

[ClockShot]

Swing and a miss.

[Droford]

and now theyre back

[Dark One]

Zero Fucks Dean Ambrose is the greatest character of our generation

[RP]

I want to clean the inside of Liv Morgans asshole with my eyeballs.

[rez]

I just realized Sarah Logan looks like a buff Kristen Stewart. Maybe it's just me

[Dark One]

Can someone who has less self respect than me look up and calculate how many times this match or a permutation of this match has happened just this year?

5 RAWS after tonight

Feels like they have no idea what they want to do at WM

[RP]

I wish I was that rope Liv is sitting on. I wish i was Liv's urinary track infection.

[A.J.K]

I'd gladly take a stinkface from Natalya and Ronda Rousey

[ClockShot]

You think Ruby knows her hat is still on?

[GD]

Ronda getting booed.

[Emperor Smeat]

Can someone who has less self respect than me look up and calculate how many times this match or a permutation of this match has happened just this year?

Does the Women's Rumble count?

If so, 4 involving some combo of Natty and the Riott Squad. For some comparisons, Natty has been on 7 shows so far this year.

Add in another 11 times if you include house shows according to Cagematch.com

[RP]

If Ruby Riott got herself a nice pair of titties, i'm pretty sure i would fuck her.

[RP]

I wish Natty would lose 30 pounds and stop farting.

[Ruien]

1 hour of Raw and nothing fun..... Liv Morgan is still hot though

[Triple A]

Natalya the most boring person in WWE 2 me

[rez]

I wish Natty would lose 30 pounds and stop farting.

Natty is a lot cuter when she's not in her wrestling attire/make up.

[Droford]

Becky gonna make it back in time for the party

[rez]

Ronda needs suspended now

[RP]

Fit Finley is practically doggystyling Becky right now. Lucky man.

[Droford]

the next step is deporting Becky

[erickman]

stonecold stonecold stonecold

[Evil Vito]

Becky is 100% getting out of jail in time to crash the Flair celebration

[KIRA]

Congratulations WWE those guys look like actual cops as opposed to your usual buff security team

[slik]

Let's go Becky!

[KIRA]

Anybody here agree with me that all Becky is missing is a knockout move that she can do quickly and leave?

[rez]

Fit Finley is practically doggystyling Becky right now. Lucky man.

Fit was my 3rd favorite in WCW after Sting and Jericho. Well, at least before that horrible hardcore title picture.

[Emperor Smeat]

Becky is 100% getting out of jail in time to crash the Flair celebration

Better involve her driving a Guinness beer truck to the ring.

[RP]

Fit was my 3rd favorite in WCW after Sting and Jericho. Well, at least before that horrible hardcore title picture.

He had a big push in WWE where it almost looked like they would give him a title match. In fact, I thought i remembered him being in a multi person title match or maybe it was a MITB. And he was a bad ass too.

[A.J.K]

Natty is a lot cuter when she's not in her wrestling attire/make up.

This.

Natalya can give me a long stinkface

[slik]

Roman Reigns the most boring person in WWE 2 me

Sort of me too m8

[slik]

Becky in a Birthday Cake going to ruin Ric's party

Steph's ass in those jeans.

Becky Screwed The Man

[RP]

Did Ronda just spoil the ME at WM?

[RP]

Ronda is not like most girls.

[GD]

What a spoiled millennial Ronda is.

[Emperor Smeat]

This is getting stupid.

Legit worst parts of this Becky-Ronda storyline have been Becky's "injury" and Steph's involvement.

[rez]

Wow. that was a cool segment

[Dark One]

Ronda called it a belt.

She fired.

[Droford]

ROMAN IS BACK IN THE MAIN EVENT BOYS

[GD]

Vince: Goddamit, that's not a belt, GODDAMMIT!

[erickman]

vacant wins again

So did Ronda just vacate the RAW Women's Championship, or...?

Great promo from Ronda, IMO promo of the night so far!

Vacant had a sex-change operation? :eek:

ROMAN IS BACK IN THE MAIN EVENT BOYS

That will pretty much cement me taking a break from WWE, it was pretty close to happening before

I can't bear any more forced Big Dog face push eating the show

Stone Cold uses an Iphone? Would have pictured him as a flip phoner

[KIRA]

Fit was my 3rd favorite in WCW after Sting and Jericho. Well, at least before that horrible hardcore title picture.

Fit Finlay was fucking great loved him in WCW him and [name redacted] didn't have enough matches IMO next to Regal those two kicked the s*** out of each other

It'll be vs Daniel Bryan though

who's gonna hinder jinder next?

[KIRA]

Stone Cold uses an Iphone? Would have pictured him as a flip phoner

I had him pegged as more of a giant black walkie-talkie guy

[Emperor Smeat]

Going to laugh if Steph just hands the belt over to Charlotte.

[Droford]

you hindered jinder!

[A.J.K]

Kurt vs Jinder

[KIRA]

I am so glad the Singh brothers are whole again

[Dark One]

Oh no.

They're not going to job Kurt to Jinder are they

[KIRA]

Going to laugh if Steph just hands the belt over to Charlotte.

It would be backstage stage bleeding over into the show

[GD]

Kurt Angle is going to job to Jinder.

[A.J.K]

Oh no.

They're not going to job Kurt to Jinder are they

That would be a travesty.

[rez]

Jinder on the Cesaro miracle tape band wagon. It's the 90's and those magnet bracelets all over again.

[Droford]

the kurt angle old yeller tour 2019 rolls on

[KIRA]

I turn around and suddenly Kurt Angle who's supposed to be retired is a full-time competitor. He's trying to pull off the Jerry Lynn old man that can still go gimmick and just failing at it I'm sorry

WWE logic, the Stars can't dictate their matches without the McMahons getting involved, but Balor and Bliss can book I.C. Title matches whenever they feel like it? Lol
