Official RAW Thread - 5/18/09: Ric Flair returns.............yet again.

[ClockShot]

So yeah. We got MVP vs. Matt Hardy for the U.S. Title

Divas are in a battle royale. Winner gets a shot the Divas title.

Orton/Batista fallout.

Probably Cena.

And did I mention Ric Flair returns, too?

[CSL]

Yay

[KYR]

Mickie James FTW.

[ClockShot]

[Johnny Vegas]

THE MIZ is on RAW so that is something to look forward to :y:

[Fox]

So... where is everyone?

[ClockShot]

Present. Jumping between this and the yankee game.

[Savio]

So whats going on?

[CSL]

Orton/Batista cage match for the PPV. Meh, should be alright. There was always gonna be a rematch. Flair takes his monthly beating from a heel/heels

[Fox]

Cena wins

[ClockShot]

Sooooooooooooooo. 3-way tag tonight?

[Hornicane]

Cena. :roll:

[Fox]

lol Flair gets beaten up and gets his music played

[CSL]

I think John Cena's regained his missing 25% from last night

And I really hope they don't announce a 6 man

[ClockShot]

That Transformers 2 trailer just made my night.

[CSL]

That UFC trailer just ruined mine. Not out over here 'til Friday :|

[PullMyFinger]

I remember when this Randy Orton Legacy era began, it was so great and interesting, esp when he punted the McMahons and Stephanie.

Somehow down the line, this storyline got ultra lame, predictable, and boring. What a shame.

[Hornicane]

PHYSICS DO NOT APPLY TO CENA.

[ClockShot]

Champ ain't coming back for a while.

[NeanderCarl]

Surprised Flair didn't get backdropped.

[ClockShot]

Well, I was close.

[Johnny Vegas]

Who were those hos in the bg of that promo

[Fox]

How dare he rip off Bill Murray. Fucking Cena.

[DarKCentaur]

Way to shit all over Vickie's booking Cena.

[Hornicane]

Peter Venkman > John Cena.

[PullMyFinger]

Kelly Kelly is from the J A X? Since when?

[CSL]

WHAT THE GAY. They put the fucking Divas on in a match Maryse can't be in??

Neg rep for Vince right there

Gee, I wonder if Mickie might be over here

MARYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEE

[ClockShot]

Common sense 101 should be that either Beth or Mickie wins this.

[RawRocks]

why not just merge the two womens title and put all the divas on one show and off Raw.

[PullMyFinger]

Beth Phoenix vs. Awesome Kong of TNA would be a great dream match.

[CSL]

lol wtf. This is gay

[DarKCentaur]

Hahaha shades of the Model!

[CSL]

Except Maryse

[ClockShot]

What the fuck?!

WHERE'S THE MODEL WHEN YOU NEED HIM?!

[DarKCentaur]

Kelly Kelly should never get a title shot unless it's a throwaway match with no buildup.

[CSL]

Yeah way to gay up my flow DarkCentaur :mad:

[shadowfoxrz]

MVP vs Matt Hardy for the US Championship next on Smackdown :shifty:

[Slare]

THE MIZ is on RAW so that is something to look forward to :y:

Fuck yes! Can't wait for Miz and the 20 minute entrance of Randy Orton.

Oh, and some Santina to round it out :y:

[DarKCentaur]

I gay up a lot of things. Flow is not one of them

[DarKCentaur]

Fuck yes! Can't wait for Miz and the 20 minute entrance of Randy Orton.

Oh, and some Santina to round it out :y:

You already missed Orton's 20 minute entrance.

[Xero]

http://www.justin.tv/tpww_vault

RAW Chat at the vault, BTW.

[Johnny Vegas]

Oh shit, a movie with Denzel AND Travolta = :y:

[Johnny Vegas]

I dont mean to spoil anything, but The Miz (besides Morrison last night) was the highlight of the night in the PPV.

[CSL]

Santinooooooooooooooooo

[Johnny Vegas]

Lol santino's roll into the ring

[Savio]

That Travolta movie doesnt look too good

[CSL]

Wow. Chavo is gonna wrestle. On TV and everything.

[ClockShot]

That Travolta movie doesnt look too good

Watch the original. Then make your judgement.

[Johnny Vegas]

LOLOLOL

[CSL]

LOL

[Johnny Vegas]

Santino is da man

[CSL]

Watch the original. Then make your judgement.

Was about to say something along those lines. Original was pretty great. Throw in Denzel and all should be good

[RawRocks]

The Guererros ... two jackasses that need to go away

[CSL]

Is Santino hulking up?!

[ClockShot]

Am I watching Eugene? Or Hulk Hogan?

[RawRocks]

Am I watching Eugene? Or Hulk Hogan?

a drag queen :lol:

[ClockShot]

:wtf:

[CSL]

Santina vs. Vickie

Hmm

[Hornicane]

LOLwut?

[Johnny Vegas]

You know, if Santino were to come out of nowhere and wrestle like Taz in ECW, he could be VERY over with the crowd.

[ClockShot]

Yeah. Either HBK or Triple H better play odds and evens to see who comes back first.

[Triple Naitch]

:wave: everyone.

[Johnny Vegas]

Well even though i like the santina angle a little bit..not TOO much, i will not be watching that match tonight..probably be on the phone or drinking some beer

[RawRocks]

strangely Raw is much better without either HBK or HHH

[CSL]

That Punch Out ad was pretty great

[RawRocks]

:wave: everyone.

:wave:

[ClockShot]

MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTER INJURY PRONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!















PRONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Triple Naitch]

Even if you didn't read the wrestling news sites, you can totally tell Miz and Maryse are fucking.

[CSL]

Huh. Another decent showing from Miz

[Hornicane]

:wave: everyone.

:love:

[Triple Naitch]

:love:

:kiss:

[Triple Naitch]

That Chavo shirt is incredible.

[Slare]

That Punch Out ad was pretty great

Indeed. I want it right now!

Santino and Santina in one night is class.

[Johnny Vegas]

lol yo, if Orton were to kick Vickie in the head....:drool:

[RawRocks]

Randy Orton hitting an RKO on Vickie Guerrero ... Priceless
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Johnny Vegas]

Even if you didn't read the wrestling news sites, you can totally tell Miz and Maryse are fucking.

Really?

[RawRocks]

lol yo, if Orton were to kick Vickie in the head....:drool:

:love::love::love:

[CSL]

UFC :mad:

[CSL]

lol did I see a white guy on that 4th and Long show? Please

[Triple Naitch]

Goldust and TBK, lol.

[ClockShot]

And the many tag team partners of TBK begins.

[The Chris Rosa]

Fuck!

[CSL]

Dustin Runnells is either the nicest guy ever or he gives great head

[The Chris Rosa]

He'll keep running through partners until he gets to Kennedy...

[CSL]

And the many tag team partners of TBK begins.

Love that they're doing something with him. Thought he'd just get lost after going to RAW. That's not say it's gonna last forever

[Hornicane]

This is my new favourite tag team ever.

Too bad this will be their only match ever.

[Triple Naitch]

Really?

For reals.

[CSL]

Fucking hate those pleathers

[CSL]

For reals.

Internets rumour. It's about as potentially true as Jericho and Kelly Kelly

[ClockShot]

How the fuck does he still have a job?

[CSL]

John Mizna up next

[ClockShot]

:rofl:

GREAT!

[PullMyFinger]

I hope they really capitalize on this Miz Cena feud. We all know what happened last time when another wrestler was so over and calling out Cena...the program never really came to fruition. Christian got so screwed. The only match he did get was a triple threat that flopped.

[The Gold Standard]

The only good thing about Raw anymore is The Miz. I think that is saying something about the talent Raw has

[The Gold Standard]

Man, Smackdown is so much better than Raw.

[ClockShot]

WORD LIFE!

[CSL]

I would rather stab myself than watch that Dance Flick but that bit with the bird putting her kid in the locker was pretty funny

[Hornicane]

:rofl:

[The Gold Standard]

THE MIZ!!

[CSL]

WORD LIFE!

!!!!

[The Gold Standard]

I wish Cena went back to that music

[The Gold Standard]

4-0!!!

[The Gold Standard]

I hope the Miz Cena program doesn't end in a squash of The Miz

[NeanderCarl]

Miz has been on a roll, but I fear he may be due some X-Pac heat very soon. He plays the obnoxious prick a little TOO well.

[Triple Naitch]

I would rather stab myself than watch that Dance Flick but that bit with the bird putting her kid in the locker was pretty funny

There's a funny commercial with Shawn Wayans coming over saying he is here to pick up his son. He lifts him up, puts him back down and then says he'll be back next week.

[The Gold Standard]

I love The Miz. He is gold on the mic

[ClockShot]

Eh. Miz was hit and miss on that.

[Innovator]

Miz is awesome

[Hornicane]

My god Miz is great. :rofl:

[The Gold Standard]

5-0!!!!

[The Gold Standard]

Lawler v The Miz Extreme Rules lol

[CSL]

Now WTF is King doing

[ClockShot]

Awwwwwwwww. Come on, King.

[CSL]

Wow, Jerry Lawler the Rocket Scientist

[The Gold Standard]

I would have loved to hear Bats music there

[CSL]

For the crack, they should have had Batista show up then. Woulda been pretty funny

[NeanderCarl]

You know, if Santino were to come out of nowhere and wrestle like Taz in ECW, he could be VERY over with the crowd.

If anyone were to come out of nowhere and wrestle like Taz in ECW, they would be VERY over with the crowd.

Of course, if Santino were to come out of nowhere and wrestle like Tazz in WWF, he would be considering future endeavours rather soon.

[ClockShot]

Uhhhhhhhhhhh. Big Show, Cena is

<------------------------- that way.

[The Gold Standard]

What submissions does the Big Show have?

[ClockShot]

Show vs. Cena is a submission match?

They couldn't think of anything better?

[The Chris Rosa]

Oh God, just Michael Cole on commentary now...

[The Gold Standard]

The Miz is just the type of guy I would hate in real life, but he is great in WWE

[ClockShot]

What submissions does the Big Show have?

Question answered.

[CSL]

Ahhhhhh balls. We're gonna have an hour of just Michael Cole

[The Gold Standard]

Ahhhhhh balls. We're gonna have an hour of just Michael Cole

Man I hope not

BRING OUT JOSH MATTHEWS!!!

[CSL]

So Miz over King next week then

[CSL]

LOL love anti-drug ads

Clearly if he'd have hit that, he'd never become an astronaut and would in fact become Jason Lee. Win.

[NeanderCarl]

What submissions does the Big Show have?

They made reference to his... ahem... famous Camel Clutch earlier in the show.

:shifty:

A bit of an obvious sudden addition to his arsenal.

[The Gold Standard]

Lets go MVP!!

[RawRocks]

Good Ole JR!

[The Gold Standard]

JR BACK ON RAW

[CSL]

Rub a lamp and out pops J.R

[ClockShot]

JR?

Smackdown crew must be close by.

[DarKCentaur]

Ok I just noticed, but WTF is Lilian Garcia wearing? It looks like a blown-up newspaper

[The Gold Standard]

Matt needs a haircut

[CSL]

Is it just me or has Matt Hardy had that vest forever?

[CSL]

JR?

Smackdown crew must be close by.

Pretty sure he'd be at every RAW feeding lines to Cole and King with Vince and 1 or 2 others

[The Gold Standard]

Matt also needs a new theme i think.

[Triple Naitch]

Uhhhhhhhhhhh. Big Show, Cena is

<------------------------- that way.


Yankee Stadium? :shifty:

[NeanderCarl]

JR?

Smackdown crew must be close by.

He calls Superstars matches prior to Raw.

Remember how he tried to take the high road when he was drafted, saying he prefers to work Tuesdays anyway? Well, now he has to show up Mondays anyway, call literally one match, and barely ever get used on the live show. Poor JR.

[The Gold Standard]

I am rooting for MVP, but I have a feeling Matt wins the belt tonight. Then this can propel MVP to the main event level.

[CSL]

lol @ the pop @ the Denver Nuggets

[The Gold Standard]

Cheap Shot at the Nuggets

[The Gold Standard]

By the way, this ref stinks

[ClockShot]

Yankee Stadium? :shifty:

Yeah sure. Throw a red sox fan into the Bronx. Wonder how long he'll last?

[The Gold Standard]

I just feel very bitter when I watch raw post draft

[The Gold Standard]

BALLIN'

[Johnny Vegas]

At least someone knows how to sell a leg injury

[The Gold Standard]

WOO...I miss the drive by kick

[The Gold Standard]

UFC game looks great

[CSL]

UFC game looks great

:foc:

[The Gold Standard]

:foc:


:(

[ClockShot]

Oooooooooooooooooookay.

[ClockShot]

Oh dear.

[The Gold Standard]

Chavo should be fired

[CSL]

:(

You get to play that tomorrow. I have literally jack shit to do this week and a sparkly new game could fix that but noooooooooo. Not out 'til Friday here

And ahhhhhhhh Riccy. Riccy Riccy Riccy :(

[The Gold Standard]

You get to play that tomorrow. I have literally jack shit to do this week and a sparkly new game could fix that but noooooooooo. Not out 'til Friday here

And ahhhhhhhh Riccy. Riccy Riccy Riccy :(

If it makes you feel any better, I can't get it tomorrow

[The Gold Standard]

Does anyone think Vickie should have theme music?

[The Gold Standard]

This will be a barn burner

[DarKCentaur]

Hahahaha Santina cut herself shaving

[The Gold Standard]

tsk tsk Chavo, hitting a woman

[ClockShot]

BREAK OUT THE BROOMS!

[Triple Naitch]

Why aren't they ripping the wig off?

[CSL]

Regal stomped the shit out of Santino then

[The Gold Standard]

I guess Vickie does have a theme now

[The Gold Standard]

Is this a Wrestlemania moment?

[ClockShot]

Anytime now, Orton.

[NeanderCarl]

Nope

[Triple Naitch]

If Vickie still had the body she did before Eddie died, that theme would be perfect for her.

[Triple Naitch]

Every time I see that Burger King commercial, I think of Narc and his girlfriend.

[CSL]

Well so much for WWE cracking down on Justin.tv and ustream (now that the main has started, I don't mind tempting fate)

[CSL]

I do love it so very much when WWE give away the finish to PPV matches 3 weeks in advance

[CSL]

Justin Long is the man. That Drag Me film does not look like the man

[CSL]

That kneepad-less look is great Cody. Honest.

[Triple Naitch]

I kinda wish he went back to putting the knee pads on his shins again.

[CSL]

I sex wee a tiny amount every time DiBiase does his Dad's fist drop

[ClockShot]

Damn.

[ClockShot]

Bye, Dave.

Edit: Fuck off, Flair.

[Hornicane]

:rofl: That looked like Cody just retard dropped off the top rope at first. :rofl:

[Slare]

Yep. If it hadn't been for the replay I figured it was probably Botchtista's fault for missing a spot.
