Official RAW Thread for 09/07/09 - Santino Marella, COME ON DOWN!

[ClockShot]

Whoa.

[mike adamle]

More red.

[Innovator]

Who watched Wrestlemania on creative?

[Johnny Vegas]

Mizark slammed dat ass

[parkmania]

Josh Matthews taking fashion lessons from Bob?

[The Gold Standard]

Bob Barker!!

[mike adamle]

PG?

[Innovator]

9 games up over Boston

[ClockShot]

OK. Enough with the mushy segments. 2 is enough.

[Anybody Thrilla]

How does Josh Matthews find his way onto every show? Who does he tour with?

[The Gold Standard]

I still wanna see Bob take a punt

[The Gold Standard]

9 games up over Boston

[Favre4Ever]

did bob just tell random stories for 5 minutes?

[screech]

Josh Matthews is great.

[Emperor Smeat]

WTF kind of contestants did his show find since he's got the pinchers, the crazies, the boob spillers, and others.

[The Gold Standard]

did bob just tell random stories for 5 minutes?

I think so. Not sure of the point though.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Yeah, I like Josh and all, but he was on Raw, Smackdown, and ECW. It's easy to be on Smackdown and ECW since they tour together, but it just seems weird that he'd be on Raw too. It's like somebody booked him to be there just for that stupid little segment there. You know how I mean?

[parkmania]

I think so. Not sure of the point though.

Fill time, pimp the book, give Bob harm-free facetime...

[Sixx]

Body Slam challenge was epic in terms of being fucking awful.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I think so. Not sure of the point though.

I think they're trying to tell you that there are tons of zany stories in Bob's book that you should buy RIGHT NOW.

[Jannettyzilla]

I think so. Not sure of the point though.

Just a reminder that old people love to tell stories.

I'm actually shocked it was only five minutes.

[The Gold Standard]

I think they're trying to tell you that there are tons of zany stories in Bob's book that you should buy RIGHT NOW.

I guess I will then

[The Gold Standard]

TRISH!!

[screech]

Next week should be sweet.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Josh: I'm here with Bob Barker.
Bob: When I was your age, this was all a big corn field!

[Anybody Thrilla]

BONER

[parkmania]

YES! It's officially official!! Trish next week!

[ClockShot]

Trish returns. Whatever.

[screech]

I like the Breaking Point theme.

[mike adamle]

Well, to explain Josh Matthews, they taped the ECW portion of Superstars earlier, so he was probably with Striker.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Thank you, Mr. Adamle.

[mike adamle]

Just doing my GM job.

[parkmania]

So, if Montreal really isn't selling tickets as well as WWE hoped, it begs the question: "Still bitter?"

[screech]

So who here is gonna buy Mr. Barker's book?

[mike adamle]

I never wanna hear anyone ever say "For the first time ever, John Cena, Randy Orton..." even if there's more to follow.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Why wouldn't they tape the ECW portion of Superstars with the ECW tour, though?

[screech]

Just doing my GM job.

You do a wonderful job.

[The Gold Standard]

[The Gold Standard]

Bob Barker kicking ass

[ClockShot]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ok.

[screech]

What a weird place to meet up and talk strategy.

[Favre4Ever]

Whats worse: embarrassed by the Swog or embarrassed by Bob Barker?

[screech]

http://www.trishstratus.us/Trish-Stratus-17.jpg

I can't rep you :-\

[Anybody Thrilla]

Holy fuck. I don't know who is worse to get punked by...Bob Barker or Hornswoggle?

[The Gold Standard]

Whats worse: embarrassed by the Swog or embarrassed by Bob Barker?

Swog

[Emperor Smeat]

Did he just do his ending phrase/send off even though RAW still has 25ish minutes left ?

[screech]

Whats worse: embarrassed by the Swog or embarrassed by Bob Barker?

Swog. He should be honored to get his day wrecked by Mr. Barker.

[screech]

I love Monk.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

[Emperor Smeat]

Whats worse: embarrassed by the Swog or embarrassed by Bob Barker?

Swog since even Adam Sandler got his ass kicked by Barker.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Did he just do his ending phrase/send off even though RAW still has 25ish minutes left ?

The main event will be the last thing on after the commercial. Bob's done for the night.

[parkmania]

So, Bob's night is done, eh?

[screech]

And these commercials are awesome :y:

[mike adamle]

Why wouldn't they tape the ECW portion of Superstars with the ECW tour, though?

No one knows. I heard that it "saves money." No idea how making a few people travel more saves money, but that's what I've heard.

[The Gold Standard]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

I think Adamle should be the GM

[screech]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

Indeed :y:

[Emperor Smeat]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

Was thinking about this since the 1st segment and agree with this a lot. Seems like he's ad-libbing his lines which is making his segments sound funnier and better than normal hosts.

[Anybody Thrilla]

A vicious karate chop to Chavo's back! Vintage Barker!

[screech]

I think Adamle should be the GM

He would really listen to the IWC, since he posts here often.

[screech]

Mr. Barker did a wonderful job tonight.

[The Gold Standard]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

He is great

[ClockShot]

No. No I'm not ready.

[The Gold Standard]

Trips is the man

[mike adamle]

Indeed :y:

And you said I was doing a good job. :(

[The Gold Standard]

Just noticed this, I thought Lillian was gone

[Anybody Thrilla]

DX is so fucking lame.

Hopefully HHH submits in the Masterlock tonight.

[parkmania]

Note to WWE writers: THAT was the proper use of a guest-host.

[The Gold Standard]

Note to WWE writers: THAT was the proper use of a guest-host.

Best so far.

Bob >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Every other guest host

[screech]

And you said I was doing a good job. :(

You do a wonderful job with your wrestling knowledge. You should make Mr. Barker your figurehead and be backstage pulling the strings.

[mike adamle]

You do a wonderful job with your wrestling knowledge. You should make Mr. Barker your figurehead and be backstage pulling the strings.

You're right, I'm not very good in front of the camera.

[The Gold Standard]

I love Trips, but get rid of that hat

[parkmania]

Only 20 more minutes left to get 8 pages - SPAM TIME!!!

[screech]

You're right, I'm not very good in front of the camera.

The fans will listen to whatever Mr. Barker says, so you can feed him all of your ideas.

[The Gold Standard]

I think he lied about loving Chicago

[Emperor Smeat]

Mr. Barker did a wonderful job tonight.

Agree, probably the best since Shaq and the best host they had so far.

[screech]

We can do it!

[The Gold Standard]

Only 20 more minutes left to get 8 pages - SPAM TIME!!!

That's what I am talking about

[mike adamle]

Shawn's wearing like a hunting cowboy DX hat.

[Jannettyzilla]

I love that hat, but get rid of Trips.

[screech]

Only 20 more minutes left to get 8 pages - SPAM TIME!!!

SPAM IT UP!

[The Gold Standard]

Anyone want to buy me the HBK cowboy hat?

[Anybody Thrilla]

Gay jokes. Way to go, HHH. :n:

[screech]

How is that PG? Did we already go over this?

[Favre4Ever]

lol wow

[Emperor Smeat]

Only 20 more minutes left to get 8 pages - SPAM TIME!!!

DX intro alone ate up about 7 - 8 minutes of time.

[Sixx]

<font color=goldenrod>Bob Barker is quite simply a God among men. He should be hired as permanent GM.</font>

Which would last for like 6 weeks until he dies.

[ClockShot]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Look for Masters to be the fall guy in this match.

[screech]

New-ish Masters theme?

[The Gold Standard]

The masterpiece. I don't know why, but I am a fan

[mike adamle]

Hopefully Masters gets a push. Yeah I said it.

[parkmania]

Shawn, Ted Nugent called - he wants his hat back or he's gonna announce open season on your ass!

[Jannettyzilla]

Agree, probably the best since Shaq and the best host they had so far.

I'd take Shaq, then Barker.

The correct choice is probably Dibiase, but that's too easy.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Chris Masters is main eventing. Life is good.

[The Gold Standard]

How is that PG? Did we already go over this?

Trips can say anything

[screech]

Ahmed Johnson > Chris Masters

:shifty:

[The Gold Standard]

Hopefully Masters gets a push. Yeah I said it.

I agree.

[Emperor Smeat]

How is that PG? Did we already go over this?

Its only PG when Bob Barker or Triple H/DX is not on the screen.

[mike adamle]

Which would last for like 6 weeks until he dies.

Sadly, rep points if he dies in the allotted time.:wtf:

[The Gold Standard]

Ahmed Johnson > Chris Masters

How dare you :rant::rant:

[Anybody Thrilla]

I've always been a Masters fan. He has no chance in this particular match, but hopefully they do something with him soon. He's looking good since his return.

[screech]

We need a Zombie promo.

[parkmania]

Pearl River Plunge > Masterlock... sorry GS.

[Jannettyzilla]

I've said it before, but Masters has to have been a Frat House Rapist when he was in college. That hair just screams "Oh boy, I hope she doesn't notice the powder in the drink!"

[screech]

I've always been a Masters fan. He has no chance in this particular match, but hopefully they do something with him soon. He's looking good since his return.

He has looked better since his return, I've never been a fan though.

[mike adamle]

The cold eyes of the Viper.

[Sixx]

Too bad I'm not watching it on youtube so I could just skip the DX's entrance.

[parkmania]

We need a Zombie promo.

Brainzzz......

[screech]

Pearl River Plunge > Masterlock... sorry GS.

And his promos are miles ahead

[The Gold Standard]

I went crazy when Masters returned. I remember the crowd was silent when he came back though

[mike adamle]

I've said it before, but Masters has to have been a Frat House Rapist when he was in college. That hair just screams "Oh boy, I hope she doesn't notice the powder in the drink!"

Well he's just had that hair recently, so, he's just a plain ol' rapist right now, no college frat raping going on.

[screech]

I went crazy when Masters returned. I remember the crowd was silent when he came back though

Crowd woulda went nuts for Ahmed.








:shifty:

[The Gold Standard]

I said it earlier, I'll say it again. Masters is taking a SCM/Pedigree combo

[Jannettyzilla]

Masters needs Paul Roma as a manager. He's too pretty.

[parkmania]

... and the crowd goes mild...

[mike adamle]

I went crazy when Masters returned. I remember the crowd was silent when he came back though

Same... somewhat.

[The Gold Standard]

I can feel it. We really want this record.

[screech]

I miss British Bulldog :'(

[Jannettyzilla]

Well he's just had that hair recently, so, he's just a plain ol' rapist right now, no college frat raping going on.Damn, that just shattered my universe.

That's what I get for skipping most of the decade, I guess. :'(

[mike adamle]

Spam.

[screech]

Anyone have Boost Mobile?

[Jannettyzilla]

I prefer Boost Stationary.

[screech]

http://simplesem.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/link-spam-report.jpg

[The Gold Standard]

Anyone have Boost Mobile?

I have T-Mobile :(

[parkmania]

Is it me, or is Kate Beckinsale around more horror movies than Elvira?

[mike adamle]

Damn, that just shattered my universe.

That's what I get for skipping most of the decade, I guess. :'(

I actually skipped most of it too, over the past year I've been going back and checking out what I've missed. It wasn't as bad as everyone says, but then again, I'm a wrestling junkie.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Popeye's is the shit. Haven't had it in forever, though.

[screech]

lol internet rumors led to WWI

[The Gold Standard]

Alpha Dog is a good movie.

[mike adamle]

We'd be at like 40 with Kane86 trolling.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Alpha Dog is a good movie.

I felt Justin Timberlake's performance was underrated.

[mike adamle]

My first day of school is tomorrow everyone, I'm a senior, should be good fun.

[parkmania]

This thread needs more shut up taker707.

[mike adamle]

Really just said that so we'd be another comment further, just like this.

[Sixx]

That doube "suck it" shit is getting on my nerves.

HBK can't crotch cop, but can make a cretin of himself in the name of Jesus.

[screech]

What a neckbreaker

[Favre4Ever]

nice kick trips!

[The Gold Standard]

I felt Justin Timberlake's performance was underrated.

I agree

[screech]

More

http://simplesem.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/link-spam-report.jpg

[RatedGSuperstar]

I loved the "I can't believe I have to wrestle Chris Masters" look of disgust on HBM's face at the start of this match.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Vicious boot to the camera from HHH.

[mike adamle]

That "one that went into the women's restroom" was the 1999 Royal Rumble match if I remember correctly, not a Falls Count Anywhere match.

[parkmania]

My first day of school is tomorrow everyone, I'm a senior, should be good fun.

Heh, my 20-yr HS reunion will be coming up next summer.

[screech]

I'd enjoy Mr. Eighty-Six's presence in this thread.

[The Gold Standard]

Anyone else a Trips fan here?

[Johnny Vegas]

As much as don't like HBM's past, i would put up Vegas money that he can make someone look great in a ring.

[Emperor Smeat]

I just want to say again, how can a submission match anywhere be innovative when they used to have wrestlers who could end matches with submissions as recent as a few years ago (jericho, benoit ....... eh maybe he never wrestled, Bret Hart, etc)

[Anybody Thrilla]

Remember that Masters/Michaels promo from the day after Michaels jobbed to Hogan at Summerslam? That was a great segment.

[screech]

What happened to KingofOldSchool?

[Juan]

Spam and eggs

[parkmania]

"I just kicked Stan!"



"Was he in the match? Yeah? We're good then?"

[The Gold Standard]

Does the record have to be while Raw is on, or until we are done talking?

[screech]

No eggs here, Juan.

[Favre4Ever]

Cole: "No absence of malice whatsoever!"

[The Gold Standard]

Did anyone else notice it was closed for a little?

[RatedGSuperstar]

Disappointed that there's no match on the card that requires you to stay in the ring at all times during the submission bout.

[mike adamle]

Why was this just closed?

[Emperor Smeat]

anyone else notice the thread was locked/closed for a while ?

[mike adamle]

VENOMOUS.

[parkmania]

Did anyone else notice it was closed for a little?

No, but my internet has been slow off and on tonight.

[The Gold Standard]

http://thenewpwb.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/02masters.jpg

This is why he should be in the ME

[RatedGSuperstar]

WE WILL NOT BE DETERRED!

[screech]

Yeah I was wondering what was up

[parkmania]

Disappointed that there's no match on the card that requires you to stay in the ring at all times during the submission bout.

Tornado Tag Submission Hell in a Cell Match.


Book it!

[Emperor Smeat]

No, but my internet has been slow off and on tonight.

Thats just the awesomeness of Bob Barker being too much for the internet and the ummm attempt to break a record on TPWW.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Orton's looking especially orange tonight.

[mike adamle]

Cold, calculated.

[Jannettyzilla]

Could be because we keep taking a break from the wrestling to talk about random stuff and pimp movies and celebs.

Oh wait, that's what RAW does. :lol:

[screech]

http://www.accelerator3359.com/Wrestling/pictures/ajohnson2.jpg

Better than Masters

[The Gold Standard]

Orton's looking especially orange tonight.

He gets more Orange every week

[Favre4Ever]

holy shit nice dropkick.

[mike adamle]

Oh my gosh.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Could be because we keep taking a break from the wrestling to talk about random stuff and pimp movies and celebs.

Like the RISE AND FALL OF WCW DVD, AVAILABLE ON WWESHOP.COM?

[Jannettyzilla]

http://thenewpwb.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/02masters.jpg

This is why he should be in the ME

Yeah, he definitely looks less rapist there.

[parkmania]

"That damn <s>Rattlesnake</s> viper Randy Orton."

[mike adamle]

HEADLOCK!

[screech]

Come on, Ahmed was in the Nation.

Instant awesome.

[Jannettyzilla]

http://www.accelerator3359.com/Wrestling/pictures/ajohnson2.jpg

Better than Masters
This, on the other hand, is a prison rapist face.

Sorry, I had to.

And for the record, Ahmed rules.

[Emperor Smeat]

Is it me or does it seem everytime Triple H/HBK tag up in a match, its usually HBK who gets beat up and Triple H as the momentum tag spot ?

[parkmania]

Kip up in 3... 2... 1...

[Sixx]

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XM-OgI8GaeU/Se3Mhz4tqrI/AAAAAAAAFOA/G4l5cAK2rAY/s320/i-like-botox-and-orange-tan.jpg

[mike adamle]

VINTAGE!

[Sixx]

TAN MADNESSSSSSS

[parkmania]

"Popped up like a pimple on prom night"


Where's King Bingo? He's getting as bad as Cole!

[RatedGSuperstar]

MVP and Henry need to bring back the NOD. Or at least get a theme mash-up. I get the feeling a combination of the MVP clock ticking and "I'M COMIN'" would sound badass when mixed with "Somebody gon' get their wig split"

[mike adamle]

TAN MADNESSSSSSS

Vintage tan madness!

[screech]

Tune it up

[mike adamle]

That crotch chop is why he's the main event.

[The Gold Standard]

http://www.wwechamp.net/design/photos/RAW-ChrisMasters-011.jpg

[The Gold Standard]

MASTERLOCK

[mike adamle]

YES COLE WAS TAKEN OUT!

[The Gold Standard]

and we lost commentary...boo cole is back

[screech]

Cole, you suck

[Emperor Smeat]

whatever happened to the spanish announcer table that used to be on RAW. I know its been gone for a while but forgot why.

[mike adamle]

Fuck not for long enough.

[screech]

That chin was great

[The Gold Standard]

There it is

[RatedGSuperstar]

Masters definitely looks like a rapist when he's making that face with the Masterlock applied.

[parkmania]

Dueling Figure 4s!

Whoops, guess not

[The Gold Standard]

That will be the ending to Breaking Point

[Jannettyzilla]

Was really hoping for the Hart/Piper turnbuckle spot out of that Masterlock.

And there's the submission buildup. :rofl:

[The Gold Standard]

cue Cena

[parkmania]

Orton Hide N Seek!

[mike adamle]

Slithering.

[Jannettyzilla]

Marco?

[The Gold Standard]

WE GOT A CAMERA

[RatedGSuperstar]

What, no Cena STF to end the show?

[screech]

Orton looks lost more than satisfied to be out of harm's way.

[mike adamle]

I can't see John Cena.

[The Gold Standard]

I want to see Trips Pedz everyone

[mike adamle]

I can't imagine Sunday.

[Emperor Smeat]

Looks like this RAW has proven 2 things :

1) Bob Barker probably has been the best GM host so far
2) TPWW agrees that Chris Masters probably is a rapist.

[The Gold Standard]

I want Trips to Pedigree HBK and turn on him at Breaking Point

[parkmania]

I can't see John Cena.

And that's not a bad thing... That's a good thing!

[Sixx]

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b254/The-619/ChrisMastersMasterLock.jpg

Looks like Nick Manning, so I guess I agree that he looks like a rapist while doing that.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Nice to see a 5 pound empty trash bin can take out Legacy.

[mike adamle]

Great No-Sell by DiBiase.

[Emperor Smeat]

I can't see John Cena.

Might be 1st time his taunt actually worked.

[The Gold Standard]

Someone is getting hit by a car

[Jannettyzilla]

This is such a WCW ending.

[Favre4Ever]

they just jacked a car? LOL.

[The Gold Standard]

ok now cue Cena

[mike adamle]

Carjacking is totally PG.

[parkmania]

No HHH Sledge through the back window? Disappointing.

[screech]

I enjoyed that brawl.

[mike adamle]

Viper promo!

[Jannettyzilla]

Someone is getting hit by a carBUT WHO WAS DRIVING THE HUMMER???????

[mike adamle]

No HHH Sledge through the back window? Disappointing.

Sledge isn't PG. Carjacking is.

[Emperor Smeat]

who parks a car near an exit/entrance to a wrestling event? Either car gets stolen or broken or in The Rock's case , cement poured on it

[Sixx]

Ok, so how did it end? I stopped watching during the DX entrance.

[The Gold Standard]

I was thinking that Randy was getting boring over the past 2 months, but I don't think so anymore

[mike adamle]

He doesn't consider is wife Samantha important.

[The Gold Standard]

I like the Cena Orton feud

[screech]

Every PPV always comes early.

[parkmania]

Why'd Cena bring a ref???

[mike adamle]

Nevermind, I see John Cena.

[The Gold Standard]

Love the DDT

[Favre4Ever]

BAH GAWD VINTAGE ORTON

[mike adamle]

Why'd Cena bring a ref???

For the dark match once this is off TV.

[screech]

Heel going over two weeks in a row? :eek:

[mike adamle]

I'd rather a punt.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Shit, Cena's winning the title on Sunday.

[Emperor Smeat]

lol at how Orton randomly blank stares/limps around when he sets up the punt.

[The Gold Standard]

RKO like Saturday NIghts ME ala Summerslam 2007

[mike adamle]

Without Legacy who will stop DX from making the save?!

[screech]

I don't think the ref left the ring area after the match. I had my back turned for a bit, though so I could be wrong.

[The Gold Standard]

I'd rather a punt.

Cena takes the best RKOs though

[Favre4Ever]

Orton is the man.

[screech]

Not as good as the last time, but still good :y:

[The Gold Standard]

Not as good as the Saturday Nights Main Event one from 2007

[Johnny Vegas]

Orton's character has definitely grown on me over the years. I love his character.

Definitely comes off as an unpredictable hot head. :y:
