Nia sweating like this is the most she's moved in a month.

I'm just thinking of all the people that Nia Jax beat to the main roster and it's pissing me off

Sasha dead

That might have been one of the worst hurricanranas ever.

Maybe Impact tapings were the right place to go.

fuckin lol @ alabama

That was a pretty terrible women's match and that says a lot.

Nia is drenched somebody spent the winter break just stuffing their face

Lol Nia taps out again. I hope they continue burying her until she quits.

I am a huge Rock fan, but if getting rid of Nia pisses Rock off and he never comes back to WWE, it would be worth it!

Sasha vs Ronda has the potential to be one of the best Women's matches in WWE history.

I don't know how that's going to happen in seven minutes.

So Nikki Bella is banging the guy she was on dancing with the stars with.

The show she was on right before she didn't feel right about John Cena and called off the wedding?

Yeah, that whore cheated on him.

If he was growing that hair out at the time I would have cheated on him too

Don Ambrose vs Seth Ralley

Take over UK is probably going to be absolutely incredible

According to Twitter Dean wearing a chain is controversial, I have no clue why

Lol!

For real though, what a shady person. This is the same person that was upset Cena had a sex scene is a movie. Shameful

Oh no

No. Sasha isn't good enough and I think Ronda is too big and strong for her. They will have to rehearse and practice their match. No way Sasha can carry Ronda. As good as Ronda is she still needs somebody to carry her. The things Ronda did with Nia she can't do with somebody as small as Sasha.

I'm a fan of Sasha, but you are right. Sasha probably weighs about 105 pounds. Ronda is gonna have to ease up a bit or she could break her.

This is the most reaction Lashley has got since he came back.

Seth is definitely the most over male star on RAW right now

SOMEBODY PUT A STOP TO THIS!

Would have been a much better ending if they had Renee clock Seth Rollins in the back of the head

As for Sasha going against Rhonda forget what I said before about her spine after that match it's just going to look downright lovecraftian

You can probably hard fuck the shit out of Sasha.. Just toss her ass all over the room like Tina in Nightmare on Elm Street.

So the only really interesting things that happened tonight were a very great Mean Gene tribute video and Ronda's next title match being against Sasha baring Sasha's health status.

Did Nia just decide not to take the bump in the middle of the move?

Re-watched the Mean Gene special. I'm still not crying...you're crying. :'(

Did Renee Young cry at all? Her and Gene co-host ed WWE Vintage Collection together for years

I'm still having a hard time getting into Ambrose. His stupid facial expressions, whiney voice and invisible lats bother me. Why do he and Seth whine when they talk?

I lost it for Ambrose a few years back. He did some genuinely horrible work and came off really smug about it. Dude throws himself into what they give him, but it's shit, and he looks like he likes rolling around in shit as a result.

It took him forever to crawl and cover Seth making them both look fucking weak.

I really wish Lesnar would give a shit for a bit.

Lesnar works really well with guys that aren't complete geeks or giant turds.

The only matches I've enjoyed from Lesnar in the last 5 years or so are two guys who could make a case for being the best in the world.

Also, Mean Gene segment was awesome. Everything else was boring, typical RAW.

Out of everything "wrong," I think this is the biggest problem with the product.

I didn't pay attention for two weeks, and apparently in that time nothing changed. Drew beat Dolph, I guess, but what's the point? Nothing happened tonight either to reward me for tuning in or to entice me to come back again, either. There were two championship matches that meant fuck-all because they had clusterfuck finishes that didn't really move the story one way or the other. Sure, the Revival got boned, but it sounds like they've gotten boned for like four weeks straight at this point.

Yes, sure, it's the holidays and college football championship and all of that shit, but I don't know that there is a valid excuse in the world for three straight weeks of nothing progressing. If Breaking Bad had been four straight weeks of Walter going to the grocery store and picking up groceries with nothing unusual happening, I don't think that people would speak highly of the show. If Game of Thrones started off with six weeks of the Starks eating dinner and happily chatting, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have made it out of Season 1.

At some point, some shit has to actually fucking happen. Three hours to name one contender for one championship and otherwise fuck all happening should be inexcusable.

^ Nailed it.

Sure there was some good action but it was still same old, same old. The show starting w/ a brawl backstage caught my attention but then we went right into the 20 minute promo followed by multi-man match w/ umpteen commercial breaks. True, no evil heel authority figures on RAW but I think we're all skeptical of how long that will last.

It's not that WWE doesn't have the in-ring talent to shine, they do. But WWE is missing 'the x-factor' right now, something just isn't clicking for me. The entire show and product needs a refreshing, especially the format of the show and production style.

Even during one of the rough patches on Smackdown in 2010 (Jack Swagger's world championship reign and feud with Big Show) we had the following happen:

1) Continued build up of the straight Edge Society and masked member interference, which would lead to Joey Mercury, if I recall correctly
2) Some tag teams getting built-up (Dudebusters and Archer/Hawkins)
3) Sets up a feud with Christian and Ziggler
4) Kofi gets positioned for a rematch for the IC Championship (which presumably hadn't happened six times in two months)

I mean, some of that shit is a retread from previous weeks, surely, and it involves the Dudebusters and Curt Hawkins, but that's still more than happened on a three hour show last night with 1000x the star power.

Jesus.

Great seeing nobody boo Hogan like all the crybabies was hoping for.

Honestly, I'm shocked Raw threads get this many pages nowadays. There's barely anything to discuss because nothing fucking happens.

I turned it on and saw Elias vs. Corbin, did something else and came back to see the Apollo/Ember mixed tag at the 10 hour

Apparently EC3 and Lacey Evans going to RAW isn't a forgone conclusion since the only reason both wrestled last night was due to Vince wanting to see them personally (mainly EC3).

I heard that Lars is going to SD
