Official Raw Thread (12-29-08): The Last Raw of 2008

[Innovator]

ITS THE BOOGIE WOOGIE KNOX

[Innovator]

Imagine if they merged.
I cannot fathom such awesomeness

[The Franchise]

Knox's beard probably weighs more than Rey.

[KingofOldSchool]

ITS THE BOOGIE WOOGIE KNOX

I'm still waiting for Knox to go and kiss Michael Cole.

[Londoner]

lol@lack of crowd reaction to that kick

[KingofOldSchool]

Lawler needs to stop thinking about doughnuts.

[Londoner]

They really should do more tags in these matches more quickly otherwise it gets bloody predictable.

[SuperSlim]

Mysterio is 12.

still?

[Xerzes]

The age of his beard is noteworthy? Of course it takes a year to get that. Friggin idiot Cole.

[The Franchise]

Cole: I hear the beard he wears is over a year old
King: mmm

[KingofOldSchool]

Knox doesn't wear his beard, the beard wears Mike Knox.

[Innovator]

I'm still waiting for Knox to go and kiss Michael Cole.
We need a hat, Knox dancing, and him kissing Michael Cole

[SuperSlim]

and now we can hear the crowd... they're going boooo

[KingofOldSchool]

Ziggler should introduce himself while he has the headlock on.

[Innovator]

Move #807 ARMBAR

[SuperSlim]

and soon we'll get the "hot tag" to Cena has he does 2 clotheslines, rushes to the corner, does elbows to everyone, bounces off the ropes, shoulderblock, then 5 knuckle shuffle before all hell breaks loose

[The Franchise]

so Cena gets the big tag and pins Ziggy?

[Innovator]

REVERSE RANA

[Londoner]

Gee what a shock that was

...

OMGZ CENA

[SuperSlim]

okay two shoulderblocks.

[Londoner]

I NEVER GUESSED

[SuperSlim]

that was gay

[ClockShot]

Orton gotta come out and kill someone.

[Londoner]

Weak

[The Franchise]

OK that was pretty awesome.

[The Franchise]

but now its gay again =/

[KingofOldSchool]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[SuperSlim]

and as good as Knox was doing... he gets to job to the smallest guy in the match... nice way to start his downward spiral from his monster look.

[Innovator]

So much for Bruiser Knoxy

[ClockShot]

That sucked.

[The Franchise]

I see what king did there... that was SO awful but still better than Cena on commentary

:heart: King

[KingofOldSchool]

So much for Bruiser Knoxy

Now it looks like Endeavored Knoxy. :rant:

[Londoner]

HeartBrokeKid

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL ORTON?!?!

[FourFifty]

:rofl: FUCKING ORTON!!!!!!!!!!!

[ClockShot]

Orton's the guy?!

SWERVE!

[SuperSlim]

so Kelly and Orton? Man Kelly is awful with her acting.

[FourFifty]

Hump 'em and dump 'em.

[The Franchise]

lol @ Manu chant

[SuperSlim]

so random ECW wrestler shows up to face Raw's Manu

[McLegend]

Orton is the man.

[KingofOldSchool]

.......

[The Franchise]

You mean SMACKDOWNS Matt Hardy?

[Innovator]

RKO! RKO! RKO! RKO!

get in, get off, get out

[Innovator]

bye bye Manure

[The Franchise]

hump and dump
fuck and chuck
screw and shoo

RKO RKO RKO

[FourFifty]

I am so going to put watching porn on hold to watch Matt Hardy.
.....is that gay?

[SuperSlim]

I keep waiting and expecting for Matt to turn heel on Jeff and beat him up cause he wants a better title... well one that actually means something.

[Lux]

:cool: Orton

[Lux]

I am so going to put watching porn on hold to watch Matt Hardy.
.....is that gay?

Does it make you hot?

[The Franchise]

I am so going to put watching porn on hold to watch Matt Hardy.
.....is that gay?

Not at all

[SuperSlim]

I am so going to put watching porn on hold to watch Matt Hardy.
.....is that gay?

only slightly

[The Franchise]

Does it make you hot?

:lol:

[Innovator]

I love this, Orton pulled the old smash and dash

[SuperSlim]

Manu needs more Umaga influence

[thedamndest]

Kelly Kelly obviously has not seen clips of Randy Orton RKOing Stacy Keibler on youtube. Though I guess she would have been like 15 or 16 at the time.

[KingofOldSchool]

I love this, Orton pulled the old smash and dash


But did he shit in her bag?

[Innovator]

nah, he just trashed the room

[The Franchise]

This match sucks

[KingofOldSchool]

nah, he just trashed the room

Maybe he shit-smeared the hotel?

[SuperSlim]

man this match is boring... Manu is boring

[Tb1]

These fans are terrible.

[KingofOldSchool]

Na Nu Na Nu is sucking wind

[The Franchise]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[KingofOldSchool]

Na Nu Na Nu loses!

[SuperSlim]

well at least Manu is out... wonder is Orton is gonna actually kick him out or just say he's out?

[ClockShot]

Bye Manu.

[Lux]

Why did Matt need that win?

[The Franchise]

Snuka isn't nearly as boring as Manu. I can deal with Snuka, DiBiase and Rhodes.

[Savio]

Hardy shoulda squashed him

[thedamndest]

Do I smell a Junior Fatu comeback?

[SuperSlim]

Why did Matt need that win?

It was more Manu needed the loss

[KingofOldSchool]

Somewhere, Afa is pissed.

[The Franchise]

That KFC commercial is great

[SuperSlim]

Snuka isn't nearly as boring as Manu. I can deal with Snuka, DiBiase and Rhodes.

Yeah Snuka actually has a watchable factor about him. Manu has nothing going for him. He's just some kinda big guy but not really big as in fat, but not small cause he has a round gut, but not really a gut like Umaga, just average.

He has wild hair and boots.

Yeah Manu has nothing going for him at all. He doesn't really stand out.

[Londoner]

Decent match tbh.

[Savio]

like I said hardy should have squashed him

[The Franchise]

So who do you guys think wins this? I'm going with JBL.

[SuperSlim]

I think it woulda been cooler if Umaga would have faced Manu and squashed him.

[Londoner]

lol@this bullshit praise, they're hardly gonna say he's shit are they?

[The Franchise]

Behind enemy lines

...lines.

[Londoner]

Orton to win

[KingofOldSchool]

AGE...OF...ORTON

[Innovator]

HERE WE GO ORTON

[The Franchise]

HEY! NOTHING YOU CAN SAY!

[Londoner]

I hear voices in my head they understand they SHOUT AT MEEEEEEE,SHOUT AT MEEEEEEEE

[SuperSlim]

Ortonnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[Savio]

What is this match for?

[Innovator]

I'm picking Orton to win the Rumble this year

[Londoner]

Lillian botched again

He's heartbrokekid.

[KingofOldSchool]

Wow HBK barely gets a peep from the crowd.

[The Franchise]

What is this match for?

Winner faces Cena at the Rumble for the World Title.

[The Franchise]

I'm picking Orton to win the Rumble this year

[SuperSlim]

can Orton's abs compare to Morrison's abs?

[Londoner]

JboreL

[SuperSlim]

Orton is gonna win the rumble so he must lose this match

[The Franchise]

hahaha that kid almost touched JBL and got scared.

[Savio]

JBL owns HBK now?

[KingofOldSchool]

Hahahaha @ the dorky redhead in the Miz shirt.

[The Franchise]

He'sBrokeKid and JustBoodyLoaded.

[The Franchise]

WTF rules are these?

[Londoner]

Ooh i see,its a traditional four corners match,didn't realize!(not being sarcastic either)

[KingofOldSchool]

Did the fans fall asleep?

[SuperSlim]

so is this a fatal 4 way? a 4 person battle royal? one fall wins?

[ClockShot]

I'm almost there.

[JT]

tag? lame. :|

[SuperSlim]

Ooh i see,its a traditional four corners match,didn't realize!(not being sarcastic either)

well that does help everything make sense though.

[Innovator]

OMG ITS JOEY STYLES! JBL IS RUNNING FOR THE HILLS!

[Londoner]

Hmmm interesting, two heels at once.(again,not sarcasm)

[The Franchise]

Wouldnt one only tag when they are getting their butt kicked, so why would the person they are trying to get in the match let them tag them in?

[SuperSlim]

oh it is elimination style.

[Londoner]

Wouldnt one only tag when they are getting their butt kicked, so why would the person they are trying to get in the match let them tag them in?

You never seen this type of match before?

[SuperSlim]

[The Franchise]

[SuperSlim]

[Sepholio]

Orton has to win this somehow

[Lux]

At least HBK doesn't cut the exact same promo every week. ;)

[KingofOldSchool]

At least they come alive for someone awesome. :love:

[KingofOldSchool]

Just like an ex wife, never satisfied. ;)

Better that than a horny 13 year old virgin that will cum over anything.

[The Franchise]

This only means Jericho is winning the Royal Rumble. :D

[KingofOldSchool]

This only means Jericho is winning the Royal Rumble. :D

Ha!

[SuperSlim]

This crowd fucking sucks

[Londoner]

This only means Jericho is winning the Royal Rumble. :D

:cool::cool:

[ClockShot]

Orton's really gotta stop doing that.

[The Franchise]

RKO HBK JBL Y2J

Yep.

[The Franchise]

Shit Orton is winning the Rumble!

[KingofOldSchool]

BOOOOOOO

[SuperSlim]

[Londoner]

And he lays down as the ref counts to 3...

[ClockShot]

[ClockShot]

KNEEL!

[SuperSlim]

ah come onnnnnnnnnnnnn this is beyond gay. someone throw a punch

[The Franchise]

RAW IS DRAGGING

[Lux]

*yawn* KoOS likes this I bet :p

[SuperSlim]

the man ... will he make up his freakin mind

[Londoner]

Is this supposed to be entertaining?

[JT]

is it me or does shawn look like he's going to be raped.

[ClockShot]

LET'S GO. MY BED IS CALLING!

[KingofOldSchool]

IS HE...OR IS HE NOT...LAYING DOWN?!?!?

[The Franchise]

BAH GAWK SWEET CHIN MUSIC

[Lux]

There goes his dignity, Clothesline From Hell

[FourFifty]

For a bunch of nothing that ending was pretty damn cool.

[The Franchise]

JBL VS CENA AT THE RUMBLE

[Londoner]

I was gonna order the rumble,but that main event between JBL/Cena will suck.

[SuperSlim]

that was epically gay... epically gay.

[ClockShot]

About time.

What were the kiddies chanting?

[KingofOldSchool]

But JBL didn't say "I'm sorry, I love you"

[The Franchise]

I was gonna order the rumble,but that main event between JBL/Cena will suck.

What about the Rumble itself?

[KingofOldSchool]

About time.

What were the kiddies chanting?

"JBL SUCKS"

[The Franchise]

So JBL wins the title, HBK wins the Rumble? LOL. Seriously though, Cena retains and Orton wins the Rumble I'm guessing. HBK/JBL at Mania 25 is a lock.

[KingofOldSchool]

HBK is turning into Mankind with the way he is sitting.

[Londoner]

What about the Rumble itself?

Not fussed about it

[ClockShot]

Yawn.

Good night, everyone.

[The Franchise]

Bret wouldn't have done it. :D

[SuperSlim]

well... that was a waste of my time... well except for seeing Mickie... that was nice :)

[The Franchise]

JBL lays down for the HITMAN.

[Johnny Vegas]

lol i didn't get to see the first 30 min of RAW, but what i saw tonight had no type of hype whatsoever, other than that 10 man tag.

[The Franchise]

Well, that was a pretty shitty way to close 2008.

The opening segment was fine. Nothing special but it made sense. No complaints here.
I'm actually happy with the Legacy match results. Snuka looks like he will be someone I like in the future, so I'm kinda happy he won. Rhodes makes sense to win. Glad Manu is out.

The diva match was what it was, but Santino made it awesome with his commentary. Melina/Beth has potential.

Cena's promo was shit and so was the 10 man tag.

Main-event was disappointing.

4/10

[Sepholio]

Michaels should have just hit him the SCM. I am so tired of GayBL being in the main event. I'm half expecting something will happen to JBL and HBK will replace him at the rumble and win, setting up their match.

That or HBK will cause JBL to lose.

[BobBitchen]

is it me or does shawn look like he's going to be raped.

I was thinking the same thing

[Lux]

Michaels should have just hit him the SCM. I am so tired of GayBL being in the main event. I'm half expecting something will happen to JBL and HBK will replace him at the rumble and win, setting up their match.

That or HBK will cause JBL to lose.

He hasn't been in the main event in well over 5 months now.

[Sepholio]

Wow Lux. Do you even watch RAW? He hasn't left the main event scene in forever, he just hasn't been #1 contender in awhile.

[Lux]

The main event scene should be the one that you know will be on screen, not that actual main event scene. So yes I do watch RAW..... most mondays :p

[Sepholio]

'Should be and 'are' happen to be 2 very different things. JBL is always on TV. He needs to be gone, or at least used far less.

[Lux]

Fair play, could be much worse tho and Bats returns early.
