The "what will WWE do without its top star" Raw thread for 8/26
 

And by its top star I do, of course, mean Ted DiBiase. WHAT WILL THE SHOW DO WITHOUT HIM?

Also apparently Daniel Bryan will do things.

Dibiase is still there.

oh btw. *squats* *batista pyro goes off behind me*

I'm expecting a 20 minute Ted DiBiase pipe bomb promo tonight.

Big E. Langston was the last member of the Dibiase Posse.

Sorry Gertner :( wherever you are.

Goddamn that would be amazing.


He could be like "FUCK THE MARKS. and u know what else? I HATE BLACK PEOPLE"

I understand a little bit to building up the brand new Corporate Team last week but feel Bryan needs a big boost tonight to stay at the level he has been at.

"Randy YOU SHIT IN MY BAGS TWICE. YOU TWO STRIKE PIECE OF SHIT."

Dibiase at the top of the ramp like "I...am the best....in the world...."

its gold, jerry. gold!

My finisher when I did backyard wrestling in high school was a Cobra Clutch/Russian Legsweep combination. Ted DiBiase actually got my finisher animated in a video game. Then he changed his finisher and it wasn't animated anymore. Still it was pretty damn cool and I'm going to miss him.

Also want to know why they keep doing these Free Non-Title World Championship matches with Del Rio. Did with Christian couple weeks ago and now doing again tonight with RVD. I don't see the logic. I'm no businessman but that just doesn't seem smart to me.

Probably to set up some sort of triple threat match at Night of Champions with Christian Vs. RVD Vs. Del Rio.

This actually works wonderfully when you combine it with Ted's complete lack of enthusiasm.

Damn really needed to go to the grocery store today. Oh well....time for Raw.

Hopefully Christian is actually on this episode.

Can I defeat the odds and drink an 18 pack in the time it takes Raw to conclude?

No.

Can Daniel Bryan overcome the odds?

We'll see about that.

That video still hurts a week later.

Remember the talks of Randy Orton being disclosed as The Shield's leader? Well, they are on the same page now.

<font color=goldenrod>Orton comes out to cheers. God dammit.</font>

Randy Orton paying homage to Khali by holding the belt upside down.

They'll die down soon.

Yep. Bryan is totally trashing that car later hahaha

I wonder if that Escalade will look the same after the show is over...

Bryan is totally going to Kofi that car.

That car will be destroyed by the end of the night.

It'd be amusing if they redid the "Orton's new car gets trashed" story the same day the guy who bought him the previous car leaves the company.

No way Bryan does anything to that car tonight.

... No way.

<font color=goldenrod>Bryan's gonna make that car tap.</font>

Orton is certainly prettier.

Heel Triple H is such a dick lol

ROYALTIES, TRIPLE H!

Isn't that song trademarked or something?

Nice. D-Bry vs Seth Rollins.

Daniel Bryan Power Hour v2!

Triple H making the pecking order quite evident.

This gauntlet match pleases me.

Triple H using the "Bow down to the King" theme since Summerslam. Nice.

Didn't he just do a gauntlet two weeks or so ago?

Bryan needs to step his game up on the microphone

lol. Ridiculous stipulations.

I want to date a girl like Summer Rae.

Tag Team Match Playah.

I smell a Tag Team match Playa

Drink every time HHH says business

Tag match, playa!

DJ Maestro Maddox :lol:

Ha. I'm sure you've figured this out for yourselves...

Maddox is basically like "yeah, you know what I'm gonna say".

Maddox is meta-Teddy Long.

Better than him treating most of us like we're stupid and acting like it's some big mystery or surprise.

I would date Thom Yorke too.

Teddy Long probably shed a tear of joy for Maddox declaring the tag match to occur

I did ultimately end up choosing 'C', but I can't claim I wasn't awfully tempted to vote for Heyman as Special Guest Ref.

Rosa Mendez back on Raw :O

Michael Cole is trying to drive Twitter traffic from last night's VMA's. What a tool.

I voted Heyman to be guest referee, but I am convinced these voting things they have on the app are very much fixed.

For a second I thought he was going to bring out Mrs. Fandango Number 1.

Just realized that this vignette was for Epico and Primo

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/H7CbvoLFGow" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

What kind of people like The Miz?

Rosa back on TV = Not a bad thing at all.

I voted B.

People from Cleveland. Former Reality Stars. About it really.

They're "fixed" in that clearly there's one choice that is going to win. I don't think they need to fix them past that.

<font color=goldenrod>Do they really need to sway the audience's vote when they blatantly set the poll up in a way where C will win in a landslide, anyway?</font>

I think it's going to be a train wreck, stupid gimmick, plus they were established as Primo & Epico.

I would never, ever be seen wearing a WWE hat in public.

I wear my Edmonton Oilers one with pride, and hear it enough from everyone. I could only imagine the beak show I would be apart of if someone seen me wearing a WWE brand hat...

3 - The amount of deleted posts by Guru Dave so far in this thread.

Los Matadores will be the biggest thing to come out of pro wrasslin' since The Rock. Saying it now.

He's good on the mic and he's got personality without needing a gimmick. He's just been "off" since turning face. Plus he's lacked anything interesting to work with. This Fandango feud could be a good start.

So is this why we can't have El Generico?

SO STUPID...... they better at least achknowledge who it is.

Christian getting to talk!!!

Just noticed El Generico's "Ole" chant is now being used for Los Matadores

Also, thought the T-shirt on his shoulder was a title belt. :'(

Also, nice to see WWE is still set on going the "Let's give a guy a title or MITB and job them like crazy and wonder why they're not getting over." It'll work one of these days!

Christian should win and get inserted in the WWE Title Match

RK Tool

Join Daniel Bryan in the fight against the McMahons.
