raw 7.27.20

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Pretty solid looking lineup tonight. Might chune in.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Andrade and Garza the most handsome tag team ever? I’d like to see a poll.

[Droford]

Feels like we're ignoring Dolph Ziggler

[Emperor Smeat]

Feels like we're ignoring Dolph Ziggler

To be fair, WWE probably already forgot about Ziggy's push.

[Droford]

Ughhh

No want Jax/Baszler

[Droford]

Andrade and Garza the most handsome tag team ever? I’d like to see a poll.

hard to beat a team with guys named Beautiful and Sweet

[slik]

Ughhh

No want Jax/Baszler

hahahahaha

a great way to combat red sox vs mets

[Emperor Smeat]

Almost 25 minutes into the show and like 10 seconds of that was actual wrestling action.

[Emperor Smeat]

Triple Threat tag match was pretty good overall even if it only really heated up during the last few minutes.

[Emperor Smeat]

That commercial for this week's NXT just reminds me of how badly WWE dropped the ball with the whole Double Champion storyline.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Jax vs. Baszler ending in a quick countout.

This first hour has been somewhat dull so far.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Trying to think of other teams that even have two handsome members

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Morrison is gorgeous of course but I can’t take the Miz as a sex symbol

[Supreme Olajuwon]

The Shield pretty handsome but Rollins has something off about him

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Strike Force a pretty handsome tag team

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Oh Breezango duh. Very handsome tag team. But are they more handsome than Andrade and Garza? I’d like to see a poll.

[Emperor Smeat]

Trying to think of other teams that even have two handsome members

The Von Erichs?

Not really a tag team but the brothers did team up together from time to time.

[slik]

looks horrendous

[Emperor Smeat]

Am I going crazy or is Rollins starting to become the new Triple H in the sense of how his promos and segments almost always drag on too long and most of the time end up barely being interesting to watch.

[Droford]

Dom could saved Aleister

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Truth

[Droford]

its hard to believe the last time Shelton won a match was before the iPhone was released prior to beating R truth last week

[Supreme Olajuwon]

The Von Erichs?

Not really a tag team but the brothers did team up together from time to time.

Not bad but they’re a little slack jawed for my tastes.

[slik]

Horrendous camera work

[Droford]

MJF can be in the hurt business apparently

[Emperor Smeat]

That might have been the most Mustafa Ali has spoken since .... well maybe that was the first time its happened.

Don't think he had that much promo time during his stay in 205 Live and think the same for SD.

[Emperor Smeat]

Ouch at one of Tozawa's ninjas landing head first from Shelton's toss.

[Emperor Smeat]

Sasha invoking and bad mouthing Steph's name doesn't sound appealing at all considering she isn't going to come out looking good in any sort of feud with Steph.

[Emperor Smeat]

Guess they really did strip Asuka of the RAW Women's title since she wasn't announced as the current champ for this match.

[slik]

Sasha invoking and bad mouthing Steph's name doesn't sound appealing at all considering she isn't going to come out looking good in any sort of feud with Steph.

USA Network does love the McMahons in feuds so they might be bringing in Steph to wrestle Sasha to combat ratings dropping

[Emperor Smeat]

If that were to actually happen, I might legit take a break from RAW for a short while. Nothing good would come from that potential feud considering Steph's whole character and promos revolve around emasculating whoever she's upset with.

[Sepholio]

garbage -_-

[Emperor Smeat]

:| Sasha won the RAW Women's title via countout.

Another Sasha vs. Asuka match ruined because of an abysmal ending.

This show has been all over the place in terms of quality and way more on the bad end.

Almost don't feel like watching the rest of RAW because of how shit that whole ending sequence was.

[slik]

Safe to rule out Bayley/Sasha at SummerSlam, I'd assume Sasha vs Asuka goes on for another ppv or two.

[Emperor Smeat]

Murphy vs. Carrillo was decent I guess.

Still can't get over how stupid that title switch was for the RAW Women's title.

Last two matches for Asuka against Sasha ended with her "losing" the title because Sasha and Bayley decided to simply just walk off with the belt during a match and then lost the belt for real via a countout.

[Sepholio]

Drew getting better on the mic. A lot better.

[Sepholio]

How come no one ever picks the "only I can win the match" stipulation?

[Emperor Smeat]

Drew revealing his special hidden stip being just another Extreme Rules match but for both guys allowed was a bit anticlimactic.

Match already felt mostly useless after WWE suddenly decided to change it to being a non-title match.

[Droford]

Dolphs gonna win so Orton can win at SS without pinning Drew isn't he?

[Emperor Smeat]

Extreme Rules match was very good. Probably the only thing on tonight's show that actually felt interesting to watch. Everything else was either decent or had something dragging it down in quality.

RAW itself was average at best.

Not sure what was dumber, the finish to the RAW Women's title match or WWE recently releasing a Top 10 Matches for the year so far and the "Greatest Wrestling Match Ever" wasn't ranked #1.

[Tom Guycott]

That might have been the most Mustafa Ali has spoken since .... well maybe that was the first time its happened.

Don't think he had that much promo time during his stay in 205 Live and think the same for SD.

He did talk a little right around when he was set to get the obvious marketing gimmick push right before heading to the Middle East for one of those Saudi shows, then he got injured.

[Droford]

Bayley attacking Kairi backstage is what they came up with to write her out for going back to Japan.

[Gerard]

Bayley attacking Kairi backstage is what they came up with to write her out for going back to Japan.

Creative genius at work. :|

[Droford]

its a shame cause old school booking would have Kairi turn on Auska for a heel turn and reveal it to be a ruse.

But she's going back to Japan so..

[Tom Guycott]

Old school booking would have also not had the title change hands on a count out unless it were a highly publicized stip beforehand as part of the build to STOP the clearly heel cowardly champ from trying to escape.

Also, technically, Asuka and Kairi were still heels, so Kairi turning on Asuka would have been a face turn.

In any case, it was all lame all the way around.
