Official RAW Thread for 01/18/10 - Gosh, I don't care about either of the hosts.

[Xero]

Sup?

As always (chat only): http://www.justin.tv/juan_version_ten/old

[ClockShot]

I'm with ya Xero. I ain't comfy with Crockett and Dynamite hosting either. I'll be hitting the last channel button on my remote more than usual tonight.

Although, I'm curious to see where they take Sheamus/Orton in the next couple weeks.

[Cool King]

Gosh, I don't care about either of the hosts.

[KIRA]

No ones cared about Heder since that crappy film and I don't even know who the other guy is.

Sheamus and Orton should make up for it but not by much.

[ClockShot]

You don't know who Don Johnson is?

How old are you?

[screech]

http://damox.com/cars/thumbs/Plymouth/1971_Plymouth_HemiCuda_NashBridges.jpg

Only thing to look forward to tonight.

[ClockShot]

Nah. I wanna see that Ferarri.

[The Franchise]

what are the chances Bret is on RAW tonight

[KIRA]

You don't know who Don Johnson is?

How old are you?

I'm 24 and Ive heard the name before just wouldn't know the face

[ClockShot]

Long live The Dream.

[RKO'em]

Mmmm...dreams...

[ClockShot]

Vinnie Mac to open it up.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

[KIRA]

Is he talking about wrestling or his penis

[ClockShot]

Dead Man on Raw. I like this.

[KIRA]

taker sweet

[Stealth-Icon]

I wonder if Santino will come out dressed as Tubbs tonight

[The Franchise]

taker. nice

[Stealth-Icon]

uh o, Taker nipple slip. check it out at this link......

[KIRA]

preach it deadman

[The Franchise]

Interesting. HBK to win the Rumble and face Taker for the title?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Michaels is definitely winning the Rumble</font>

[KIRA]

that was just cool

[The Franchise]

lol 50 bucks HHH wins the Rumble and feuds with HBK *gunshot*

[ClockShot]

Hmph.

Great idea. A few obvious flaws, but it can happen.

[Zeeboe]

Just turned on Raw.....did not bother with it last week since Bret was not there, but anyhow.....like I posted two weeks ago, I love that it is 2010, and yet all my boyhood wrestlers I grew up are not only stll in the wrestling world, but are the top guys as well.

Great Undertaker/HBK segement. I did not see much of their feud last year. Very nice and old-schoolish watching that. :y:

[Flair Wooo]

Bret us obviously suprise entering the rumble at 30 and wind it by knocking Luger over the top rope.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The only thing about Taker/HBK at WM for the Title.

HBK's pretty much said he's gonna take a few months off after WM every year. Taker looks like he's on the verge of retirement, and even if he doesn't, he usually disappears for awhile after WM. Something's gotta give.</font>

[The Franchise]

Yeah as cool as it would be either

a) Taker wins again. Sweet but that is the exact same as last year
b) HBK ends the streak. Eh... HBK doesn't need the rub and it would be real shit to be honest

So unless one of them is retiring or something big that we don't see coming happens, the end of Mania will be kind of disappointing.

[The Franchise]

lol Sheamus got NO reaction

[ClockShot]

Bourne jobs again. This is getting old really fast.

[Juan]

As much as I don't want HBK to end the streak, I would LOVE HBK and World HEavyweight Champion.

[KIRA]

I understand your love of old school and all but seriously dude things change.
The people you consider old school were once young up and comers,someone had to move over and make way for them. You don't seem to get that nothing can stay the same.

You wanna live in the past so badly WWE has a big ass library full of your boyhood heros go pick some dvds and go away.

[The Franchise]

As much as I don't want HBK to end the streak, I would LOVE HBK and World HEavyweight Champion.

sometimes i dont like the streak because i want some matches to happen at WM where taker doesn't win. but the streak fucks it all up!

[Ermaximus]

If anyone ends the streak and takes the title from Taker at WM, I'd hope it would be Jericho, but we shall see.

[ClockShot]

CROCKETT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever. :roll:

[The Franchise]

Triple H burries Napoleon Dynamite

[VSG]

Why did Lawler call that crucifix finisher of Sheamus a "Celtic Cross"? Also, anyone care to enlighten me on the HHH-Other Random guest host incident referred to there?

[Stealth-Icon]

Carlito, hitting rock bottom there

[ClockShot]

Recycling scripts again?

[KIRA]

There are only so many Celtic refrences in the world youre bound to start to repeat yourself :D

[The Franchise]

Cole just gets more awful every year :foc:

[KIRA]

why has swagger fallen so far?

[Stealth-Icon]

Next week Chavo gets to toss Swagger over the top rope

[The Franchise]

Wow Swagger has also hit rock bottom.

[Stealth-Icon]

Where's Pedro?

[Hanso Amore]

LOL Heder getting the heat

[KIRA]

so thats their connection southern california?

[Stealth-Icon]

I calling that Jericho is in the Limo

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I preferred his old music...

[The Franchise]

Haha no pop for Heder

[Juan]

so thats their connection southern california?

They're promoting a movie they're both in, you twit.

[RKO'em]

I preferred his old music...

me too

[KIRA]

or maybe its cause their names rhyme

[The Franchise]

I calling that Jericho is in the Limo

Me too

[KIRA]

They're promoting a movie they're both in, you twit.

I was kidding dude relax

[Hanso Amore]

MVP and Tubbs are also both black

[Juan]

lol Heder has been pretty hilarious so far tbh

[Stealth-Icon]

Too much Wiz. Need to take a piss now

[parkmania]

Either Jericho or Bret...

[The Franchise]

LOL throw heder a bone here Knoxville

[Hanso Amore]

Juan what is with the troll like anger?

[Juan]

It's what I do :cool:

[parkmania]

Welllllll... It's the Miz Show!

[Hanso Amore]

LOL Heder

[Hanso Amore]

Miz show name is gold

[parkmania]

And the crowd goes mild.

[KIRA]

lol Knoxvilles delayed reaction to Heder

[Stealth-Icon]

Big Show's gonna knock out Miz by the end of their match

[The Franchise]

The trend of shitty WWE crowds continues...

[parkmania]

Big Show's gonna knock out Miz by the end of their match

We can only hope.

[MrMyc]

So a host that can actually cut a promo gets no reaction.

[Stealth-Icon]

lol Knoxvilles delayed reaction to Heder


They are a little slow in Knoxville. Takes them a minute to process big words.

[VSG]

This crowd was actually much better than normal.

[EDWARD]

hey i'ms from knoxville and i knows how to speak good!

[Stealth-Icon]

So a host that can actually cut a promo gets no reaction.


Don Johnson was pretty good wasn't he

[Johnny Vegas]

Heder would be an awesome mouthpiece for somebody like Miz-Show or Legacy (Ted & DiBiase)

[parkmania]

They are a little slow in Knoxville.

That's why there's so few different letters in the state's name.

[KIRA]

I'm just curious to see how/if Jericho will figure into this whole thing.

[Stealth-Icon]

[quote=Stealth-Icon;2903697]They are a little slow in Knoxville.[quote]

10-eh-c

[KIRA]

They are a little slow in Knoxville. Takes them a minute to process big words.

The sad thing is you're not joking Ive spent time there.

[ClockShot]

IT'S A NEW DAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

[parkmania]

My god, King! Randy Savage?!?!?!?

[Innovator]

Randy Savage, really king?

[Robodiv]

RANDY SAVAGE!!!! HAHAHAHAHAH

[MrMyc]

Marine vs Marine

[KIRA]

Nice to see John in the upper mid-card if only for a while.

[benji718]

Honestly I can care less for Sheamus!!! Everytime he comes on I just get up and do something.. I really hope Orton beats him... Sheamus SUCKS as a champ:n:

[Splaya]

K I'm here now, 24 was amazing as usual....








Now i have to watch this shit

[Stealth-Icon]

K I'm here now, 24 was amazing as usual....








Now i have to watch this shit



And shit it is

[benji718]

Seriously we need to let WWE know that Sheamus is terrible... He hasn't fought anyone but Cena and all they do is put him up against lightweight wrestlers... Step you game up Sheamus!!

[KIRA]

The thing is I want Sheamus to be successful cause its something different but man I can't get into him.

[Stealth-Icon]

The thing is I want Sheamus to be successful cause its something different but man I can't get into him.


They need him to start coming to the ring with a bowl of Lucky Charms. That would put him over instantly!

[benji718]

I really don't see anything in him... I rather see CM Punk as champ again...

[Stealth-Icon]

Miz and Big Show's tag team name=

MizRawShow

[parkmania]

Welllllll... It's the Miz Show!

Sorry, this is simpler and better.

[The Franchise]

This main events going to suck

[Zeeboe]

Has Bret shown up yet?

I understand your love of old school and all but seriously dude things change.
The people you consider old school were once young up and comers,someone had to move over and make way for them. You don't seem to get that nothing can stay the same.

You wanna live in the past so badly WWE has a big ass library full of your boyhood heros go pick some dvds and go away.

No. :) But seriously, I have gone away several times. I only come back when I see the old-school guys back. And if these kids were anything like the legends, the wrestling world would not need to count on the old lions to save the day.

[parkmania]

So stoked that Burn Notice is back this week.

[Skippord]

I would enjoy banging Alicia Fox

[Stealth-Icon]

I want to see Maryse do her pin on top of Eve....Hot

[The Franchise]

I'd do all of em

[Splaya]

I'm going to go look up Impact spoilers and if theirs are better, I'm going to watch that instead of the RAW main event. Yes i will skip Tonight's main event to watch Thursday's

[Stealth-Icon]

http://www.411mania.com/siteimages/maryse_39871.jpg

[Juan]

lol shadow dropkick

[parkmania]

Holy - I just realized that it's already 10:30. Where did the time go?

[Splaya]

Ok I've read the Impact spoilers. It sounds like a train wreck

[RKO'em]

what a terrible main event. Shit's like a circus.

[Stealth-Icon]

what a terrible main event. Shit's like a circus.


We're just missing the bearded lady, good thing that Vickie is on Smackdown

[The Franchise]

hahaha I'm diggin miz show

[Stealth-Icon]

haha, the Flame. Seems appropriate tagging with the Miz right now after his French gay statement a few weeks ago.

[McLegend]

Don Johnson is brilliant man.

[Stealth-Icon]

Don Johnson is brilliant man.


:y::y:

[The Franchise]

Orton's in DEEP trouble :lol:

[Stealth-Icon]

With Shameas's hair all spiked up and red like it is, he should be called the flame

[The Franchise]

lol you cant wrestle chants to Sheamus

[Zeeboe]

Is Orton a face now?

[Stealth-Icon]

merely a shade of grey

[The Franchise]

Is Orton a face now?

Nah, its heel vs heel but Orton is just less shitty so basically the face in this feud

[Zeeboe]

merely a shade of grey

So he's a tweener?

[Zeeboe]

Nah, its heel vs heel but Orton is just less shitty so basically the face in this feud

Ahh, I see.......wow, that WWE toy commercial made me feel young.....

[VSG]

Wanna bet the crowd does a "Woooooooooo" when Heder comes out in the robe?

[The Franchise]

This feud reminds me of HHH/Angle from 2001

[Stealth-Icon]

I want them to start a "vote for Pedro" chant

[The Franchise]

they're still giggling at that whale/ants comment?

[Juan]

lol Heder is great

[VSG]

Lol he actually made it work! Great balls of fire!

[KIRA]

LOL HEDER gettin into this LOL

[parkmania]

It's a white-off contest between Heder's legs and Sheamus' whole body.

[Zeeboe]

Holy cow....I have not seen the DX intro in ages.....lol. Wow. Is it 1998 already? j/k. I love this old-school stuff. I remember even though I HATED DX in 97/98, I freakin' LOVED their intro.

[parkmania]

Where were the fireballs a la Taker for "The Flame"?

[Stealth-Icon]

So, Jericho should be getting ready to make his appearance after saying in the limo all night?

[parkmania]

Can't believe that Gamer is just now getting to DVD. Wasn't it out in theatres over a year ago?

[KIRA]

Little clothesline

[parkmania]

And when is Hunter gonna tell Shawn the "serious news" that he's in the Rumble too?

[benji718]

DX might split!!

[Splaya]

YES HUNTER IS GOING TO GET IN THE RUMBLE

[parkmania]

Oh, I guess right about now...

[Stealth-Icon]

and business is about to pick up

[Splaya]

YEAH WHY DON'T WE JUST BRING EVERYONE OUT

[Skippord]

SHOCKER

[RKO'em]

YEAH WHY DON'T WE JUST BRING EVERYONE OUT

[Splaya]

LOL SWEET PROMO

[Stealth-Icon]

way to announce it HHH!!!

[Splaya]

See this makes me care about the Rumble now

[KIRA]

Hunters voice just switched back to serious mode

[VSG]

A stupid but entertaining episode of Raw, especially with no Bret Hart even!

[Innovator]

I miss hearing the Game every week

[parkmania]

So now in addition to "Who raised the briefcase on Austin?" and "Who was in charge of GTV?" we also have "Who was in the limo with Heder?"

[KIRA]

Hopefully this is the end of DX

[Zeeboe]

So now in addition to "Who raised the briefcase on Austin?" and "Who was in charge of GTV?" we also have "Who was in the limo with Heder?"

Was it ever discovered who was driving the hummer?

[Stealth-Icon]

So now in addition to "Who raised the briefcase on Austin?" and "Who was in charge of GTV?" we also have "Who was in the limo with Heder?"


I was thinking the same thing. I am wondering if it was just the Miz since they seemed to have a bromance going on tonight.

[Jordan]

Pretty decent Raw, the Kofi/Cena vs Legacy Match was good. The guest host thing has got to end. It's getting unbearable.

[Innovator]

Oh yeah, when did Big Show get into the Varsity Club? Rocking the letterman's jacket

[Emperor Smeat]

Only saw the 2nd hour of Raw since "24" is back on tv now but it was decent. Heder coming out in the Flair robes and being announced as The Flame had me laughing. Also was laughing at how a part of the crowd chanted "You Take Steroids" at Sheamus without realizing most of the wrestlers take roids.

Crowd seems to only be active when D-X or Cena is in the match or doing a promo and dead/quiet for the rest of the show.

[Juan]

Miz was in the limo, you twits.

[VSG]

It was the Big Show, not the miz. See the replay and you will notice Heder talking about having Show come in tonight for security or something like that.

[RKO'em]

twits!

[el bobbo]

Did anyone who watched Raw tonight wish they were watching Smackdown?

I don't understand how one company can produce two completely different shows, and not realize that one is superior to the other. The guest host gimmick is a novelty which needs to be reserved for special occasions. VKM is really burning everyone out with this crap. At least Smackdown has feuds, storylines, and matches with people who actually work within the company.

[Phenomenal 1]

I pretty much was disgusted with RAW tonight and was disappointed every since the Bret Hart show when he had like only 3 spots on the show. I didn't even watch last week nor did I care to watch Tyson help DX bury Jericho even further. And watching Napoleon Fagmyte in tights made me vomit in my mouth....not that TNA is any better but at least there is some promise there. Wrestling in general just sucks right now, except for Ring of Honor.

[Phenomenal 1]

I think WWE should start marketing and using Cena and Kingston as a new tag team...they could call them "Trouble with Merchandise"

[Droford]

I just watched this finally and have a question.

Right before the Tag ME, they had a thing up that said :

"WWE RAW was shot on location in Knoxville, TN"

when did they start doing that?

[parkmania]

I was wondering the same thing. They also thanked some of the city or state officials. By the time I noticed it I couldn't read the whole thing. Is it possibly something to do with state of Tennessee's laws???

[Xero]

Yeah I noticed that. We'll have to see if it happens again, but I have a feeling it had to do with some weird laws.

Though imagine if they started doing credits like WCW did. lol

[Droford]

I totally remember when WCW would roll the credits after a PPV.
Made it feel special or something.

[Xero]

Now that I think about it, I very vaguely remember something like this happening a few times and thinking it was weird.

Thanking Tennessee, not the credits.

[kareru]

'raw was filmed in front of a live studio audience'
