RAW Reunion, brother brother.

[Evil Vito]

Foley wants the 24/7 title? Then why the fuck didn’t he just grab it when he introduced it?

[RP]

OH SHIT!

[Emperor Smeat]

They officially merged at Wrestlemania 31.
nWo randomly helping Sting that night might have been the second dumbest moment from that match. The first being Triple H beating Sting.

Guess Road Dogg giving the Kliq excuse explains Hall and Nash's involvement tonight.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Foley

[GD]

THE FIEND!

[Loose Cannon]

the more they do these reunion shows the more cringe worthy it gets. it's the same people every single time.

Would of been nice to see the Bullet Club go over but nah, we'll just give the 50 year olds the nod for the 15th time

[Anybody Thrilla]

The Fiend should keep the Mandible Claw. Especially with that "HURT" glove.

[GD]

Interesting way to involve Foley in a physical angle.

[Evil Vito]

So happy-go-lucky, cardigan-wearing Bray is never going to be a thing again right? There’s no split personality, the months of amazing vignettes really were all just to build up Bray Wyatt with a mask.

Bleh.

[xrodmuc316]

The Fiend should keep the Mandible Claw. Especially with that "HURT" glove.

100% agree.

[Anybody Thrilla]

It may not be saying much, but this is one of the better "reunion" shows in quite some time.

[RP]

Omg I want to sprinkle Alexa's poop crust on my pop tarts.

[xrodmuc316]

So happy-go-lucky, cardigan-wearing Bray is never going to be a thing again right? There’s no split personality, the months of amazing vignettes really were all just to build up Bray Wyatt with a mask.

Bleh.

I wouldn't say that since Bray is still playing it up that way in Twitter.

[Lock Jaw]

Damn.... caught up with the show live..... at least it is with Becky Lunch here..... can't believe how long this show is....

[slik]

James E Cornette going to have a field day with this show...

[Evil Vito]

I wouldn't say that since Bray is still playing it up that way in Twitter.

Doesn’t mean much. Everybody does their own thing on Twitter nowadays.

[RP]

GO FUCKING FALL HEAD FIRST ON A TURNBUCKLE NATALYA YOU STUPID BITCH

[xrodmuc316]

Omg I want to sprinkle Alexa's poop crust on my pop tarts.

That's weird.

Just break the pop tarts up and sprinkle those on top instead.

[RP]

Natalya looks like she cups her hand over her ass cheeks so she can smell her own farts.

[RP]

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU WEARING NIKKI CROSS'S PANTS NATALYA YOU SKANK!

[Anybody Thrilla]

That's a shitty thing to say, RP.

[RP]

SOMEONE PROTECT ALEXA!

[Anybody Thrilla]

That's a shitty thing to say, RP.

The turnbuckle thing. Not the poop thing.

[slik]

stressed at natalya getting a mic

[Anybody Thrilla]

Natalya looks like she cups her hand over her ass cheeks so she can smell her own farts.

They had a whole angle about that.

[xrodmuc316]

Nattie is a turd.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Kinda weird to have already sent HBK out to the ring already if he's still in that Toast segment.

[RP]

I'd fuck Patterson and Briscoe for 5 minutes of sex with Alexa Bliss.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the HBK photo used for the upcoming RAW toast segment.

Each one of his promotional photos for this show looks like he completely regrets accepting WWE's invitation.

[RP]

I smell Natty's period through my TV screen. THIS IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS

[Anybody Thrilla]

...is R-Truth about to fuck Drake Maverick's wife?

[RP]

I think Randy Rowe has a chance here.

[RP]

Randy Rowe is The Red Rooster's son btw.

[Anybody Thrilla]

All those people in the building, and this is Braun's opponent.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Really needed a cool down after that 24/7 match, I guess

[Emperor Smeat]

Braun got some pretty good height on those jobber throws.

[Blonde Moment]

Randy Rowe is The Red Rooster's son btw.

Was wondering about that because Braun has generally moved away from killing single enhancement talents

[Evil Vito]

...is R-Truth about to fuck Drake Maverick's wife?

Who wouldn’t? She’s bonerific.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Her hotness isn't the question. Is this feud about to get taken to the next level???

[Evil Vito]

Lol Flair “looking better than ever”. Yeah, no.

[Blonde Moment]

...is R-Truth about to fuck Drake Maverick's wife?

What are the odds she shows up with the Title and refused to explain how she got it

[Anybody Thrilla]

That stage is half "Who's Who" and half "Who's That?".

[RP]

Alundra Blayze scares me more than the Fiend.

[Anybody Thrilla]

What are the odds she shows up with the Title and refused to explain how she got it

Best possible scenario

[GD]

Holy crap, Alicia Fox is a legend now.

[Lock Jaw]

Christian should be getting this spot right now, not Hulk Hogan! WORST RAW IN HISTORY

[rez]

What's with Fox being out there

[slik]

Guessing this ends w/ a whimper and not a bang

[RP]

Hogan's gonna slip up and say the N word for sure.

[Anybody Thrilla]

"With all my friends, and also some black people..."

[GD]

What's with Fox being out there

Was she quietly let go after the incident?

[rez]

Still random RVD being there since he's TNA. What are they getting out of it

[Anybody Thrilla]

Booker T should finally make good on his threat to Hogan TONIGHT.

[Emperor Smeat]

So did WWE release Alicia Fox and not tell anyone about it?

Still doesn't make sense why she was announced among all the former stars and legends advertised for this show unless she doesn't work there anymore.

[Lock Jaw]

Still don't know who the blonde with the long hair is.... Jillian Hall?

[Anybody Thrilla]

Boogeyman should not be on that fucking stage.

[RP]

Boogeyman has a title run in him for sure.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Still don't know who the blonde with the long hair is.... Jillian Hall?

Yeah, hard to recognize without the mole.

[Evil Vito]

Boogeyman should not be on that fucking stage.

The worst part is I don’t think most of the people on stage don’t actually have Legends contracts like Boogeyman does.

[Anybody Thrilla]

The worst part is I don’t think most of the people on stage don’t actually have Legends contracts like Boogeyman does.

I'm not even bothered by his contract, but that character shouldn't just be paling around with Jillian Hall and Melina. Looks ridiculous.

[rez]

I need to find some Broken Skull IPA....reading it's actually pretty good.

[Anybody Thrilla]

AUSTIN: Some of us crap ourselves!

(Zoom in on Mark Henry, nodding vigorously)

[Anybody Thrilla]

What the fuck is Austin talking about?

[Evil Vito]

Lol Cena not out there with the rest. He really did have to leave.

[Triple A]

austin listing things he ate last night 39857879x more entertaining than anyone currently on the roster

[RP]

Vince needs to give Austin a blank check to be the RAW GM.

[Lock Jaw]

Good ending, but would have been better with Christian cutting the final promo of the night

[Anybody Thrilla]

Terrible ending, but I didn't COMPLETELY hate the show.

[Lock Jaw]

Vince needs to give Austin a blank check to be the RAW GM.

Surprised that he hasn't been lured back for one more match via some Saudi money

[Triple A]

Kelly Kelly so hot

[RP]

Any reason The Rock or Big Show wouldnt be there?

[Emperor Smeat]

That might have been the most rambling Stone Cold has ever done in a promo.


Lol Cena not out there with the rest. He really did have to leave.
Meltzer did mention he originally wasn't meant to be on tonight's show due to being very busy with another film. Guess he managed to get a compromise made in order to show up at the beginning.

[rez]

Figured Hurricane was gonna eat a stunner

[Anybody Thrilla]

You can't just double fist IPAs like they're Steveweisers.

[Evil Vito]

Love how USA forced WWE to fly all of these people in for a nostalgia show rather than let them build to the second biggest PPV of the year

[Evil Vito]

Not even an angle to try to hook people for next week :lol:

[Anybody Thrilla]

Any reason The Rock or Big Show wouldnt be there?

The Rock is probably doing Hobbs and Shaw promo. As for Big Show, Red Lobster is currently in the middle of Crab Fest.

[Evil Vito]

The 24/7 stuff made the show worthwhile.

That said I haven't fully enjoyed a nostalgia show since the Raw 15th Anniversary Show and I'll always view that show with rose colored glasses because I was there live and it featured a battle royal that included Steve Blackman.

[Emperor Smeat]

Very underwhelming show tonight based on the hype going into it. Only the 24/7 stuff and Austin's drunk promo were interesting from the legends/former stars side and the non-reunion stuff was average at best.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Not even an angle to try to hook people for next week :lol:

Don't you want to know what happened to Drake Maverick's wife???

[Evil Vito]

Don't you want to know what happened to Drake Maverick's wife???

I kinda assumed that would get covered on SmackDown since Truth works all the shows.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Raw is replaying on USA at 11:45, for some odd reason.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I kinda assumed that would get covered on SmackDown since Truth works all the shows.

Oh true

[slik]

Guessing this ends w/ a whimper and not a bang

[RP]

Alundra Blayze looked like a slutty Jessica Tandy.

[slik]

Austin 13,000,000,000,000 x more charismatic than anyone on current roster was my big takeaway from RAW tonight

[slik]

Alundra Blayze looked like Nicole Bass, I did a double-take

[Destor]

Austin 13,000,000,000,000 x more charismatic than anyone on current roster was my big takeaway from RAW tonight
He's a star

[Triple A]

Austin def seems drunk

[Emperor Smeat]

Apparently this was the size of the crowd for Smackdown's house show while RAW Reunion was going on. Doesn't seem like it got any better as the show went on according to the same reporter from PWTorch.

[GD]

At first I thought that they were cooling down the wildcard format with just Carmella appearing on RAW. But then I realized that we also had RVD appear on the show :shifty:

[slik]

A comment I have seen repeatedly across the internet about RAW Reunion is that it came across as a series finale.

Interesting.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Ohhhhhh, maybe the restart is NOW

[Emperor Smeat]

According to the Observer, this show had a bunch of rewrites made not because of Vince but because Creative wrote and planned out the show before any of the legends and former stars got medically tested first.

Tonight's show has evidently been a ton of headaches. There was more than one segment written that had to be changed today because talent involved were flagged by medical from doing anything physical. Many segments have been changed at the last minute, and not due to Vince changing his mind, but due to things medical wouldn't allow to happen.

[Droford]

My only takeaway was all the women on the active roster and Kelly Kelly Candice Michelle and Alundra Blayze won the 24/7 title

[Tom Guycott]

So happy-go-lucky, cardigan-wearing Bray is never going to be a thing again right? There’s no split personality, the months of amazing vignettes really were all just to build up Bray Wyatt with a mask.

Bleh.

I'm holding out hope that he'll promo in the street clothes, but have matches as The Fiend.

[Tom Guycott]

Randy Rowe is The Red Rooster's son btw.

Ah, so that's why Ray Rowe had to change his name. :shifty:

[Splaya]

I'm holding out hope that he'll promo in the street clothes, but have matches as The Fiend.

I would not have Bray do any promos in the ring. If he needs to do a promo, then it needs to be a Firefly Fun House taped segment. Let the two "characters" be separate. There is no reason for Bray to do a promo in the ring.

[Evil Vito]

In a record that seems like it’ll forever be safe, Pat Patterson became the oldest champion in WWE history at 78 years old.

[ClockShot]

Buzzed through the results over on the main page.

Doesn't look like I missed much. Some of ya's was right in predicting the 24/7 belt being a hot potato for the night.

[Evil Vito]

A comment I have seen repeatedly across the internet about RAW Reunion is that it came across as a series finale.

Interesting.

Meh, so did Raw 1000 and Raw 25.

[James Steele]

Raw 1000 at least had CM Punk’s heel turn.

[Simple Fan]

Thought it was a good show. Cena was a surprise to start the show. Biggest surprise for me though was RVD showing up and Street Profit dude talking about the smoking session. Can't go wrong ending the show with Stone Cold.

I didn't like that throughout the show the legends and the faces won everything. They completely shit on The OC, could have had the NWO back the OC at leadt. Best thing to come from that though was the possibility of HBK vs AJ Styles bit at the end. Good show but sad they have to pull this to have one.

[Simple Fan]

Also didn't recognize Madusa and thought she was Ivory at first going by what she was wearing. Didn't get the "won't have it long" line until she was walking to commentary and I realized it was her.

[James Steele]

AJ vs HBK :drool:

[Anybody Thrilla]

I was opposed to HBK coming out of retirement, but since he already has, I'd love to see a program with AJ. Hopefully culminating in an AJ win where he acquires the moniker "Heart Break Man".

[XL]

Nah that ending was awful.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Terrible, honestly. But maybe they're finally putting all that shit to bed? Hopefully? Please?

Fuck.

[Evil Vito]

Willing to bet they do another nostalgia show in 6 months

[rez]

So there's Smackdown tonight and Smackdown this weekend on the network?

[Sepholio]

Stone Cold was channeling his inner Scott Hall last night.

[Rammsteinmad]

Terribly predictable and generic legends show.

[Rammsteinmad]

Wish they'd stop using the same old guys over and over. Wanna see people return that we haven't seen since they left. Ken Shamrock appearance would be awesome! John Morrison! Carlito! Even some WCW throwbacks like Norman Smiley would be fun.

[Loose Cannon]

Hall and Nash are actually 60 years old now. had no idea.

[Lock Jaw]

Nash still looked great. Out of the legends, except for Christian of course, he looked most like the one who could legit come back for a match and not seem totally out of place.

[Evil Vito]

Imagine if they had, for example, had Steve Austin endorse Kevin Owens in his feud with Shane McMahon. If they'd had Samoa Joe choke out Hulk Hogan. If they'd actually acknowledged Alundra Blayze as a genuine trailblazer rather than a reductionist "the one that put a belt in the bin", and used her to put over Becky Lynch or Alexa Bliss.

It wouldn't have been at all difficult to use this show to put over some current talent, or move things forward somehow. Even having Seth Rollins actually put over by The Kliq rather than looking like the dorky kid wanting to hang out with his older brother's cool friends would have been something.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Wasn't Sid supposed to be on this show?

[Fignuts]

lol @ alundra getting worked into a shoot on twitter

[Evil Vito]

Another thing that feels played out about anytime they bring back legends is that they always have to be portrayed as a face. Kevin Nash has said a few years ago that he loved what Bullet Club were doing in Japan. Couldn't Hall and Nash have stood behind the OC and made it a 5 on 5 instead of just merging DX and nWo into a babyface supergroup because Kliq?

I just think you can add more to stories to not only use legends to put over current talent but to also let those characters stay true to themselves. I remember when Edge had to play the helpless legend in peril when Rollins threatened to break his neck with the Curb Stomp if Cena didn't agree to reinstate the Authority. As soon as Cena relented, Edge should've popped right up and he and Rollins have a laugh. Rollins enlisted a fellow sleazeball to trick Cena. It's totally something Edge would've done at the height of his career during the Rated-R Superstar days.

[XL]

Softball season.

[owenbrown]

Willing to bet they do another nostalgia show in 6 weeks

Fixed

Pffft! Why do an arcing storyline to help put current guys over when you can just have "legends" cameo every once in awhile?

Yes, I thought the whole time Nash and Hall would attack the rest. they even were behind the other guys for a few seconds when they were doing the stare down and i thought yes they are going to do it. and then i remembered they don't do anything out of the ordinary anymore

[KIRA]

Ive never understood the excitment over seeing guys you used to like not wrestle.....or do much of anything really

For me it just cheapens the memory.

[Tom Guycott]

WWE is more sophisticated than that now.
