Official “MONDAY NIGHT RAWBACK (IS WAR)” thread - 10.29.2012

The WWE Universe has gone through “Hell,” and WWE is not the same as before. CM Punk is still WWE Champion, but he is a hunted man following his controversial retention over the monstrous Ryback inside Hell in a Cell. Sheamus’ World Heavyweight Championship reign is no more, brought to an unceremonious halt by two KO Punches from Big Show. Kane & Daniel Bryan are still Tag Team Champions, but tension between Team Hell No is at an all-time high. With Survivor Series less than three weeks away, what ramifications await on Raw? WWE.com has five ideas.


Notes on the "AJ Scandal"

Vickie Guerrero dropped a bombshell at the Hell in a Cell Pre-Show when she claimed to possess concrete evidence that John Cena and AJ Lee carried on an inappropriate relationship while the latter served as General Manager of Raw (READ VICKIE'S EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW). Vickie did not produce said evidence, but she did invite AJ to Raw to witness its unveiling. The gusty AJ naturally accepted via Twitter. What will happen when Vickie brings her evidence to light?



Just say (Hell) No

Team Hell No retained their Tag Team Championships Sunday night. But it wasn’t the prettiest of wins, as the bickering titleholders had to settle for a moral victory after Kane (who’d caught an accidental knee to the head from Daniel Bryan) went on a rampage and got the duo disqualified against Team Rhodes Scholars. The quarrelsome champions had seemingly been inching toward a breakthrough in their teamwork skills; will the snafu at Hell in a Cell be a setback or will they be able to regroup by the time they’re called upon to defend the twin titles again?


The hunt continues

CM Punk escaped Hell in a Cell with his bodily functions intact and the WWE Championship in his clutches, bringing his reign ever closer to that elusive one-year benchmark. Ryback, however, did not seem all too happy that referee Brad Maddox took matters into his own hands, keeping the human wrecking ball from feasting on The Second City Saint in the place where rivalries are supposed to be settled. Survivor Series offers a prime opportunity for Ryback to exact his revenge; can Punk elude the creature’s grasp until then?


Long hard road out of "Hell"

Big Show did exactly what he promised at Hell in a Cell: He connected with his industrial-sized right hook and sent Sheamus to dreamland with the KO Punch (although it took two to beat the Celtic Warrior), relieving Sheamus of his coveted World Heavyweight Championship in the process. With the 45-second monkey off of Big Show’s back, how will the new giant World Champion’s reign of terror impact the WWE locker room? And after Big Show kicked out of the Brogue Kick, can Sheamus find a way to take the title back? And, on that note …


Dolph denied

No doubt Dolph Ziggler was expecting either Sheamus or Big Show, or both, to be barely conscious after their ring-shaking war, opening the door for Mr. Money in the Bank to make good on his promise to cash in his contract on the victor. Suffice it to say, Ziggler’s expectation was wrong, and The Showoff was nowhere to be found while the 7-foot Big Show celebrated his KO defeat of The Celtic Warrior. Still, Ziggler remained confident, vowing to haunt the giant every waking minute until the opportune moment strikes. What, exactly, is The Showoff’s plan of attack? Tune in at 8/7 CT to find out!

Getting the thread starting in case we all lose power? Good thinking. Can they just start Raw now at 2pm for me?

Hang on. I’ll call USA and NBCUniversal and find out. :shifty:

Also, just wanted to say a big THANK YOU! to whomever got this stickied. You, whomever you are, are awesome. :)

np

I hope AJ Lee turns heel and she says she's a Paul Heyman girl.

I predict Ryback vs Brad Maddox tonight.

FEED ME SCREWJOB!

DONT LISTEN TO HASNEY

IT WAS ME

THOSE ARE RIGHTFULLY MY KUDOS

Cha-ching!!! :y:

Now, now boys, play nice. No need to fight, there's plenty of this to go around...:naughty::shifty::shifty::shifty:

WARNING: Do NOT stare directly at image unless you want to melt your face and screen simultaneously...

You know you can’t resist that charm and charisma...;):naughty:

Unlike Goatf--err, I mean Daniel and whoever the first guy is, I only ever leave the goatee when shaving my face. I even get the area right between my lower lip and top of my chin.

Only thing I hate is that with just about any razor, electric or disposable I almost always have trouble getting certain bits of stubble at the extreme ends of the left and right side of my jaw...

I'll wait until this gets the Shisen Seal of Approval before contributing further.

you do know that is Lesnar right?

If WWE really wants to make a new star, they should keep Ryback and Punk apart. Punk holds the title until Mania, sneaking past wins against Cena and Rock along the way.

Ryback wins the Rumble, finally gets his hands on Punk for his rematch at Mania and wins the belt.

CM Punk said "whoever the first guy was" at Raw 900 about Lesnar. It was about the ring breaking incident.

NOTE TO SELF: Always check the title of the picture (picture save file name.jpg or whatever) before posting. I saw the UFC 121 caption, so yes I am now aware that is Brock.

Thank you for your concern, and everyone in here now and who posts in here during the show tonight, be good to each other and yourselves and have a great time watching and discussing the show. Just 1½ hours to start time!

THE RETURN OF RIC FLAIR?

That'll be my Ryback moment.

"Last night, the Champion retained over the challenger via official interference. What will be the fall out? Tune into Monday Night Nitro to find out!"

Hoping power stays on the entire show. Just noted on Main Page there is some announcement about Lawler tonight too.

Hopefully Lawler retires from commentary. JBL and JR being back has been so much better.

Agreed. Really like that Cole has dialed it back too....But you know the big announcement is going to be that hes back, like, next week or something.

JR tweeted “Big news coming tonight on #RAW re: @JerryLawler. Great info. Watch #WWE Raw live from Charlotte”

"Great info" pretty much eliminates the chance of the announcement being him retiring. They're probably just announcing he'll be back next week.

Ddpunk

LOL at the sign "Hey Punk, My Wife says I'm the Best in the World"

:| them trying to say last night was more controversial than Montreal or even Stone Cold shaking hands with Vince

Punk ripping off edge

Would have loved it if he pointed at the fan he smacked a couple of weeks back there.

Sounds like Punk is setting up a Face Survivor Series Team

Oh is this on now? Someone stream me.

Brad and his Big Blue Mad Ox

:lol: Punk

Well....he does always look like he should have a sign asking for money by the highway.

Dont know why, but for some reason I am intrigued to see the teams they set up.

Punk ran out in the crowd again? Didn't something very bad happen the last time he did that?

Would love a team of "Heyman's Guys" Form over the next few weeks to back Punk

JTG LOL

Haven't we seen this before? Back when Ryback first had pink eye?

Ryback got about three inches off the mat there.

is he going to say something other than feed me more?

Ryback shouldn't talk

Should've gave Ryback a title shot on Monday night and let him win it! I don't expect to see it though, I expect to be disappointed tonight.

Ryback started off channeling warrior there

No, Ryback shouldn't be on the mic

Howdy Damndirty! Howya been?

Pretty good Frank! Enjoying the cold weather... sorta.

yup...more facebook friends than Coke. Something Ive been trying for years to accomplish myself.

Everyone over Ryback finally?

I hear the Northeast is gettin a lil wet!

Orton was starting to look like the Legend Killer again for a second there

it won't be there for too much longer;)

Still dont get why so many on here love seeing the same match over and over again. Clothesline/shellshock is just the new spear/jackhammer.

was the first Red Dawn a good flick?

Tell you the truth, I've been kinda yawning over WWE lately

Wolverines!

I've been enjoying the Aces and Eights angle on TNA... does this make me a traitor?

Classic flick

Looks like Jack Nicholson in like the 4th row lol

It seems like its been forever since Orton was involved in an actual storyline.

Starting to wish the local liquor store stayed open later.

They're trying to scare him out of getting the 3rd strike.

AJ looks quite perky this evening.

Vicky needs to not be on the show, this is not good television.

If they wanted a heel GM, it should've been Heyman.

I see 2 good reasons for AJ to be re-hired and 3 if she turns.

Hmm, Vickie Guerrero Kiss My Ass club? :naughty:

Vicky is just.... random and annoying

Is it just me or does it seem like every last person/company does a thing for breast cancer now? Its like a full proof way to get positive press.

Oooh

Call me homophobic, but seeing half the roster wearing pink is pretty fucking tooty fruity

...and why are the heels wearing pink? If anything they should get over by saying they want everyone to get breast cancer.

Mr. Nose Day Off

Nose day off

Darren O'Neil? Anybody else catch that?

Who the hell is Darren O'Neil lol

Lol I was thinking something similar

I'd rather see that, but Komen's would probably withdraw their name from the company

Mr. Nose Day Off.

"Bulletproof" Titus O'Neil.

Then sue them using the donations they've received for daring to use the pink ribbon for purposes other than their own.

God.. she's ugly....

New superstar in that last match folkes: Darren "Mr. No-Doze off" O'Neil

I really like the song Bulletproof by Five Shingle Death Proof.

Doesn't the gay community use the ribbon too?

Live the Revolution by playing a game set in 1998. Shouldn't Assassin's Creeds 3's motto be Live the Revolution too?
