ratings baby

Think this one is “male or break” for me.

[ClockShot]

I should I even bother tonight?

[ClockShot]

Seth Rollins holds a "Town Hall Meeting" with the Raw locker room.

Not so much Town Hall and more just a typical staff meeting.

[ClockShot]

:lol:

I'm already laughing at this.

[Emperor Smeat]

Rollins sort of looks like a dweeb in that suit and hair bun combo.

[ClockShot]

They should just turn their backs to him.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

There is no gravitas in anything Seth Rollins says. Nothing sounds important or meaningful.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Orton giving Rollins the wacking off taunt.

[erickman]

I like this rollins heel it up.

[ClockShot]

Drop the F bomb on TV, Kev.

[slik]

heel seth is back baybay

[Evil Vito]

Turning Rollins heel is clearly the right move. He’s a shit face of the company.

[Emperor Smeat]

Rollins is a pretty shitty motivational speaker considering the results of this speech.

[ClockShot]

Evil corporate stooge Seth Rollins works...………..again.

[ClockShot]

Also noticed that Becky Lynch was absent from ringside.

Would have played the end of that triple threat match just to stick it to him.

[slik]

I wonder if KO will win the title tonight and take it to NXT?

[slik]

oh wait seth isn't champ

[Emperor Smeat]

Outside of the occasional moments, WWE has a pretty boring tag division overall despite having some very good talent in the division.

[Evil Vito]

Now here’s where AOP squash people for a few weeks/months to try to delay the inevitable match with the Vikings.

[slik]

Lawler making short jokes about Tozawa now

[ClockShot]

Fuck's sake, King. Shut up about Seth Rollins already.

[slik]

Big pop for Matt Hardy

[GD]

Matt Hardy moves to RAW. Looks in good shape.

[slik]

Lawler is already unbearable talking about Seth constantly

[GD]

Murphy's going to annihilate Hardy.

[GD]

Looks like we won't have any Smackdown or NXT superstars showing up on RAW tonight. Which is a good thing.

[slik]

Crowd seems disappointed Matt Hardy lost in a short match

[Emperor Smeat]

Murphy vs Hardy was pretty good overall. Also helped that it wasn't just a squash match like every other match before it tonight.

[KIRA]

I see Matt Hardy manage to complete "the can I fit into the clothes I wore in the 90s?"challenge. He looks good

[GD]

Love Aleister Black as long as he's not cutting promos in that room.

[erickman]

yeah raw is pretty good tonight

[KIRA]

RAW(esp RAW) and SD got crushed by NXT youd think people would be happy about this but Ive seen people actually complain.

[slik]

how many times aj and humberto going to wrestle...

[GD]

What's with the echo?

[KIRA]

how many times aj and humberto going to wrestle...

Depends are you sick of it yet

[Emperor Smeat]

RAW(esp RAW) and SD got crushed by NXT youd think people would be happy about this but Ive seen people actually complain.

Probably because last night's main event was bad and all of NXT's wins were either from dull matches or them having to act heelish to do so.

Also NXT being that dominate last night reeked of desperation by WWE to improve the brand's image because of its struggles against AEW.

[KIRA]

Kevin Owens face and body language speaks for us all

[GD]

Just realized that they're using the set from Survivor Series. Also no pyro for Styles is unacceptable.

[Emperor Smeat]

For a guy that Paul Heyman supposedly likes a lot, Heyman has a really dumb way of showcasing it for Carrillo.

[Emperor Smeat]

Are Gallows and Anderson turning on Styles?

Why would they agree for Styles to risk his belt tonight after making sure it didn't happen just minutes ago with Carrillo.

[slik]

Lawler is SO BAD on commentary

[KIRA]

Rey and Ricochet both look ridiculous

[KIRA]

Lawler is SO BAD on commentary

Part of me feels like he does it on purpose seeing as how he hates it

[slik]

is the nfl game big tonight?

[Emperor Smeat]

Lawler is SO BAD on commentary

He's been getting progressively worse each week.

At least with Dio, his main issue was being new in the role and the big spotlight of being on RAW like Renee when she was in the booth. He just needed more time under his belt to grow comfortable in the role and mesh better with Vic Joseph.

[tman220]

Rey will win

[tman220]

then this match will end in a DQ...rematch at TLC

[slik]

They really haven't done anything w NXT winning to make people want to tune in Wed so far

[Emperor Smeat]

Fatal Four-way was very good overall.

:lol: at Mysterio going backwards in the ladder for title shots. Went from being a Universal title contender to US title contender within the span of 24 hours.

[GD]

Yikes, Styles went in hard.

[GD]

The crowd is really into this match. Solid showing by both men so far.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the ref bump spot.

[GD]

Wow! What a match. Well deserved :yes:

[Emperor Smeat]

US title match was great.

[erickman]

well this is the best raw they have had in a long time.

[Emperor Smeat]

Why are they making it like it was all Asuka's fault for Team RAW Women losing last night when Charlotte started the whole thing between the two.

Charlotte legit might have the worst character in the entire women's division with how much she goes back and forth acting like a face and heel. She's not even good at portraying herself as a tweener either.

[slik]

Did Lawler just say Ric Flair was dead

[slik]

Vic Joseph no clue how to respond, awkward silence for like 5 seconds

[KIRA]

Why are they making it like it was all Asuka's fault for Team RAW Women losing last night when Charlotte started the whole thing between the two.

Because Vince hates foreigners

[slik]

[Emperor Smeat]

Charlotte busting out the Lion Tamer as if she's suddenly decided to be Jericho now.

[Emperor Smeat]

Charlotte got coated by that mist attack.

[Volare]

Charlotte busting out the Lion Tamer as if she's suddenly decided to be Jericho now.

Next comes the flex/pin taunt.

[Emperor Smeat]

WWE has a pretty bad habit of having way too many squash matches on RAW.

8 matches tonight and 4-5 of them were squashes and big wastes of time.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Truth

[Emperor Smeat]

Wouldn't a restraining order cover everywhere Lana travels to and not just whatever state she got the first one in?

Bit of an overkill to get multiple ones unless WWE legit doesn't know how court orders work.

[slik]

heel seth trying to use a chair on KO

[Emperor Smeat]

Baring any shenanigans in the main event, WWE pretty much ignored everything that happened at Survivor Series outside of Rollins "Town Hall" speech.

Like take out Rollins speech and there was no real fallout from the PPV tonight. Guess Charlotte vs. Asuka as well but beyond that it was as if last night's show didn't happen.

[rez]

RAW needs some Nitro girls if they're gonna continue this 3 hour biz. They can shuffle the XFL dancers/cheerleaders

[slik]

I like the AOP as Seth's evil henchmen

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Creative taking Balor's idea of AOP being his lackeys and giving it to Rollins instead.

Also :lol: at the crowd chanting "bullshit" for the ending.

[Emperor Smeat]

That was such a terrible ending to the show.

RAW was average at best overall tonight. Everything before the Fatal 4-way was dull and same for almost everything after the Charlotte vs. Asuka match.

[BigCrippyZ]

Lol...

WWE (and anyone who actually wasted time watching this trash of a Raw) is so fucking stupid.

You know what was more entertaining than Raw? Almost anything, athletic or not.

I'll say it again, NOTHING FUCKING MATTERS IN WWE, BECAUSE AN IDIOT IS IN CHARGE!

It's simple and not going to change until Vince is dead. Period. The. End.

[slik]

They didn't do anything to get anyone to tune into NXT on Wed IMO

[Evil Vito]

They didn't do anything to get anyone to tune into NXT on Wed IMO

I'm not surprised. NXT won Survivor Series but it was obvious everything was going to go back to business as usual. They spend a month building up idiotic brand supremacy and they it means nothing the second the show happens.

Now time to start building to the next PPV with arbitrary gimmick matches.

[BigCrippyZ]

Wait?!? Are you saying this company doesn't actually know what the fuck it's doing in terms of actually putting out quality product??? I'm shocked!!!

[slik]

2 whole pages for the live thread....raw had a few top twenty trends on twitter tonight....Matt Hardy, Rusev and Monday Night Raw...that's all tho

[Emperor Smeat]

They didn't do anything to get anyone to tune into NXT on Wed IMO

Did they even bother to air any commercials for it?

I missed a couple commercial breaks for pet dogs related stuff during tonight's show.

[slik]

I think they had 1 commercial but it was the usual generic 'we r nxt' stuff

[slik]

They said STARRCADE will air on the network Sunday I think but I don't think they announced any matches

[BigCrippyZ]

:lol::lol::lol:

[xrodmuc316]

I saw the clip of Rollins calling people out, I laughed when Seth said Rey's stupid kid.

And of course reports coming out that Vince is mad Seth even alluded to CM Punk, because only Vince could get mad at somebody saying something interesting off script lol.

[Droford]

They said STARRCADE will air on the network Sunday I think but I don't think they announced any matches

On Tuesday, WWE confirmed two matches that will air on the WWE Network broadcast. Those matches are WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors vs. Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair vs. SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley & Sasha Banks vs. Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross in a Fatal 4-Way Match.

Also, Rusev vs. Bobby Lashley in a Last Match Standing Match is scheduled to air.
