Official Raw Thread (5/12/08): Lights Out in the Motor City

[Corndad]

or punch him lol

[Innovator]

AHAHAHHA LARIATTTTTTTTTTTT

[Xerzes]

Well, that was pointless. It sucked the last time they broke up, and they were put back together with no explanation. I expect the same in another six months.

[FourFifty]

WTF! I turned away for one second and Capt. Caveman has just been floored by Stevie Richards!?!?!?!?
Couldn't have been Lance Cade. They just won a match, and they're back on a roll.

[Johnny Vegas]

OH SHIT

[ClockShot]

Cade's going solo.

About time.

[NeanderCarl]

He nailed him twice... once on each chin.

[Innovator]

Dammit it wasn't a lariat




I WANT A LARIAT

[JH]

HELL YEAH
beat his ass cade

[KingofOldSchool]

Next stop, feud with Druggie Hardy.

[KingofOldSchool]

THAT DAMN ULTIMATE OPPORTUNIST!

[Johnny Vegas]

Duuuuuuude i need to start watching SD!

[FourFifty]

Edge is the main reason I need to record SmackDown.

[NeanderCarl]

Tiiiiiiiiired. Raw can't seem to keep me awake anymore.

[Johnny Vegas]

Say what you guys want about Hardy but HE IS FUCKING OVER. Get over it. You are the minorities lol. Tighten his mic skills and he's the most over champ simce '05 Cena

[FourFifty]

OH SHIT!!!!!

[Innovator]

IRS!!!!!

[ClockShot]

I got Melina going to Smackdown or ECW in the draft.

Anyone else?

[Innovator]

And yes, Edge is awesome on many many levels

[Johnny Vegas]

Melina got beasted

[FourFifty]

........So I just watched Orton's promo, and all I have to say is where the hell is Ludvig Borga?

[NeanderCarl]

I can't be fucked with this. Going to bed.

Nite, y'all.

[Innovator]

Ortonbot returns

[KingofOldSchool]

Prediciton: Punk will job

[Innovator]

[KingofOldSchool]

[ClockShot]

What the fuck with all this new music.

[Innovator]

I like it....fits his new character

[FourFifty]

ZOMG!!!!!!!! ORTON HAS NEW MUSIC!!!!!!

if anyone cares........
























WHERE THE HELL IS LUDVIG BORGA WHEN YOU NEED HIM!!?!??!?!

[BigDaddyCool]

That is awful music.

[FourFifty]

Terran, if you're reading this thead, hook us up with wtf is up with this theme. And if you're not reading this thread, there is no god.

[Innovator]

he's pinning Tatanka with one finger out there somewhere

[BigDaddyCool]

Is it just me, or is orton's back tatoo thing different?

[ClockShot]

Orton just lost about 50 points cause of that music.

[Azriel]

That is really bad music

[KingofOldSchool]

Orton's theme should be Mr. Roboto by Styx

[KingofOldSchool]

Terran, if you're reading this thead, hook us up with wtf is up with this theme. And if you're not reading this thread, there is no god.

He's playing with the kid across the street.

[JH]

i like the old theme better

[Azriel]

Watching that Smackdown rebound, I'm sure Teddy's got something up his sleeve to regain power.

[Kris P Lettus]

BOOM BAP

[FourFifty]

he's pinning Tatanka with one finger out there somewhere

Inno, you have won this thread. You are so damn repable.

[KingofOldSchool]

he's pinning Tatanka with one finger out there somewhere

No, he's playing the role of Captain Planet by fighting all of our pollution in the land of milk and honey.

[Innovator]

Dueling chants baby

[KingofOldSchool]

Dueling chants baby

All I heard is CM Punk chants.

[FourFifty]

All I heard is CM Punk chants.

They clearly put the wrong tape in the machine then.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

So how long until someone hits the ring?

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Nah, didn't you know CM Punk out pops everyone... ever... in the history of man.

[ClockShot]

So how long until someone hits the ring?

A few minutes after 11 JBL might hit the ring.

[MVP]

I laughed when HBK said he had never faked an injury before. Pretty sure he faked his injury before Wrestlemania 13 to get out of jobbing to Bret.

[FourFifty]

Nah, didn't you know CM Punk out pops everyone... ever... in the history of man.

He will NEVER out pop Ludvig Borga!!!!!!!!!!!

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Does Randy ever hit (in an actual match) the RKO when he does that cool little coiled snake thing?

[ClockShot]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[KingofOldSchool]

They clearly put the wrong tape in the machine then.

Oh wait I was watching an old episode of ECW.

BITCHTITS!

[Innovator]

YES! REGAL MADE JBL PUT A SHIRT ON!!!!!!!!

[FourFifty]

How dare Cena attack a ref!!!!!

[ClockShot]

YES!

[KingofOldSchool]

ORTON WINS!

[FourFifty]

And out comes HHH, setting it up for a dark match main event..... and no Ludvig Borga.

[KingofOldSchool]

TRIPLE H IS GOING TO TURN ON CENA!

[HeartBreakMan2k]

You were close, it was a few minutes before 11 :p

[ClockShot]

Thanks, Hunter.

[KingofOldSchool]

OMGZ ITZ TEH CAGE

[ClockShot]

Let's see who I'm picking for Tipsters after this.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I would have popped like hell if H did a high spot

[ClockShot]

No overrun. Interesting.

[DaVe]

No overrun. Interesting.

Low on content, unfortunately.

[mrslackalack]

Maybe they will go back to Burn In My Light with Orton. Remember they used This Fire Burns as his theme song and it didnt get over too well and they gave it to Punk and he went back to Burn In My Light.

[FourFifty]

All in all a decent Raw. Nothing great, nothing that'll hit WrestleCrap, total lack of Ludvig Borga, but Jeff Hardy came back and I always enjoy seeing Kennedy. All in all, decent.

[FourFifty]

Maybe they will go back to Burn In My Light with Orton. Remember they used This Fire Burns as his theme song and it didnt get over too well and they gave it to Punk and he went back to Burn In My Light.

Finlay also had a new theme for a week, and then it went back to normal.

[KingofOldSchool]

Maybe they will go back to Burn In My Light with Orton. Remember they used This Fire Burns as his theme song and it didnt get over too well and they gave it to Punk and he went back to Burn In My Light.

Next month, Colt Cabana debuts using Orton's theme from tonight.

[James Steele]

Lance Cade finally had "the look" tonight. When they showed him on the ramp he looked like a big time heel. I doubt this will go anywhere, but I hope it does.

[Destor]

How was RAW?

[Destor]

what happned?

[mrslackalack]

I agree just a decent RAW. At least Hardys back though.

[KingofOldSchool]

Lance Cade finally had "the look" tonight. When they showed him on the ramp he looked like a big time heel. I doubt this will go anywhere, but I hope it does.

Well I heard they are really big on Cade and that they think he is better than Murdoch. Hardy will probably win the IC Title back from Jericho and then feud with Cade.

[mrslackalack]

Id have Cade have a couple matches with Murdoch and have Cade win them all. Id then have him squash guys like Hacksaw, Crazy, Val etc then have him beat the I-C champ in a non title match to show himself as a strong contender.

[Theo Dious]

Super Crazy still has a fucking job?!

[James Steele]

I would ROFL if they changed Triple H's music. Just imagine at Judgement Day that this music plays instead of Motorhead...

[James Steele]

BTW, that is "Play The Game" by Queen.

[Indifferent Clox]

Your puppy is still alive, just pay the money.

He's not a puppy anymore... you can keep him, I usually sacrifice my puppies to whatever God I'm worshiping that week anyway when they get old and not cute anymore.

[Jura]

I actually like Randy's new theme.

[RGWhat316]

Just got back from RAW a little bit ago. I was going to take a TPWW sign, but then decided on not taking any since I was 10 rows up in the lower bowl diagonal from the announcers. But I had a really fun time.

Haven't watched the show yet on my DVR, but the crowd really was alive for most of the night. Damn Cena fans just have too high of voices to compete with. But there was a pretty loud dueling chant during the main event. I halfway expected Jeff to show up, and he got one hell of a reception. I took a bunch of pics and hope to post some here soon.

I don't know when cameras cut off, but the live crowd got a 6 man cage match with DX, Cena v Orton, Umaga, JBL. HHH and Orton stayed nearby while the rest came out. And Shawn did come out to DX music. Only about a 10 minute match that ended when all the faces hit their finishers on the heels to win.

[Destor]

I love Queen

[Gertner]

damn it, why the fuck split up cade and murdoch.

[Lock Jaw]

Because they've been tagging waaay too long! More than a three months! Unacceptable.

[James Steele]

I love Queen

I would mark the fuck out if they played that song instead of Motorhead, and I love motorhead.

[Gertner]

Because they've been tagging waaay too long! More than a three months! Unacceptable.


they work beter than any tag team on raw. fucking ridiculous.

[RGWhat316]

What was up with Orton's new theme last night? I certaintly didn't expect it. But I don't think it's too bad, more of a slow heelish theme.

[RGWhat316]

I took a bunch of pics, but not all turned out too well. So here are some of the better ones
