WWE RAW Thread - 25th January 2016 - Booker T is turning into somebodies Grandma
 

Hell yeah

Goldberg or bust!

OoOoOoOoOoO or Scott Stiener.

It's clearly Gallows.

Or, you know, Daniel Bryan or The Rock

Probably The Rock since it's Miami, but they tend to blow their load in advance when it's The Rock to get people to watch

I'd say Undertaker faces off with Braun Strowman.

Rumours going around on Reddit that it's Rock. Probably coming back to make a bitch of some young talent because of course they can't get any heat back on him but whatever.

Big E and Kaitlyn speculate on who it'll be

If it's Rock, he'll be playing the role of Reigns daddy and telling off that big bully HHH.

IT'S ME

Maybe Undertaker will show up to start the seeds of his STEEL CAGE RETIREMENT match with THE DEMON KANE

I mean casket match

They bust a 'Taker nut after Fastlane don't they?

which will be what TOTALLY gets roman over....

No,

Too bad it isn't Kaitlyn herself. That would be perfectly acceptable.

Probably not a snowball from W.Va.'s recent snowfall (and that's a fuckin huge snowball too) of it happening, but what the hell: I'd like to ser Sting vs. 'Taker with the stip that it's both their final career match no matter what. Make it even more of a spectacle by having 'Taker alongside Sting in the HoF and then the next night @ Mania, let them both have at each other, one-on-one, straight up, no gimmick match, no special ref, no enforcers at ringside, no non-finishes, no interference, and let them put on a 5-star clinic.

Might as well. We all know Triple H vs. Reigns is going to suck shit.

:eek: The return of <s>Hornswoggle</s> Lock Jaw as the Anonymous RAW GM

ITS CM PUNK!









:shifty:

What if it's all a clever swerve and another poster returns to his role as RAW G.M. (mike adamle)?

No groping from the new girlfriend, which means the level this show has to reach to be "acceptable" is a lot higher than last night.

I hope we get to see more of this.

What were her thoughts on the Royal Rumble... or were you "too busy" to "pay attention"?

I want to see AJ Styles vs. Tyler Breeze tonight.

Sex was between football and the Royal Rumble.

I thought it was "good" up until the Rumble match. They're getting better since presumably Pat Patterson stopped booking all of it, but the third quarter of the match was a chore, and the stuff leading up to it was still kind of bland. They just don't know how to book it any more beyond the singular, major plot point/ending.

Like, AJ Styles' debut was great and shocking and everything, but then he proceeded to get punched for the next twenty-five minutes and not do anything memorable other than be there for twenty-five minutes. Same thing for just about everyone else.

They did at least book the ending properly. I don't have a problem with the result, but at least they learned from their mistake last year, got Roman out second to last so the end wasn't a YAY ROMAN GOT ELIMINATED, and made sure the guy that was in the "hope spot" was someone people would care about in Ambrose.

Probably still would have liked the show for the most part without the handjob.

Becky Lynch can't take her disrespectful treatment at the hands of Ric Flair, Chalotte and Sasha Banks lying down.

I have a feeling we're going to move into a Kalisto vs. Cody Rhodes feud at some point.

Did I ask for your thoughts?! :fu:

I don't care what you want.

#MeanestPoster2016

Hope the surprise is just Orton or Cena so I can hear the collective groan of an entire generation.

Yeah... really really hope they can keep her going strong and build up to a triple threat at Mania, where I would have her win....

She loved New Day but was otherwise nonplussed and working on homework.

FIRST BLOOD FEUD OF 2016!!

I will fight you in the yard

I came here to see a Styles Clash. I better not be disappointed.

And maybe a few more Bullet Club members.

Great use of word nonplussed..... all is forgiven... (for now)

Wrong.

It's going to be this man:

Really should've been someone other than H going over, but if they were so hell-bent om him winning and becoming a 14× champ, they should've had him really heel it up to get Reigns and Ambrose eliminated instead of just eliminating them both cleanly. At least have hi do something clearly underhanded to get the last guy out.

Also, I'm officially guessing tonight's main event will be (unless it's already been announced, in which case, I stand corrected) Reigns and Ambrose v. H, 2-on-1.

@Dark One

It's really convenient that we'll be out in the yard, because when I suplex you through the earth, we can just put a gravestone over the top of the hole and skip the whole funeral bullshit that no one would come to.

#MeanestPoster2016

I think we'll get Triple H teasing the rematch with Reigns, which he goes through with, only for it to end with a beat-down when The League of Nations reveal it was a set-up on Reigns.

Cena would be just exactly the kind of asshat who would try and rush back from another not fully rehabilitated injury.

Nope. Sasha. Becky's never gonna win the big one. You will like it.

Good for WWE for not spoiling the surprise.

No Chance.

NO CHANCE IN HELL!

Love Steph swaggering alongside Vince....

Eek.

Bad make-up job, Steph.

What's the record time for a boring Authority promo opening Raw? They're going to smash it tonight, aren't they?

I'd rather see Roman Reigns vs. Vince McMahon than Roman Reigns vs. Triple H for the title.

When they show highlights of the previous night's PPV, how come they can only show still shots from the actual in-ring "action," but they can show video of anything that doesn't include the ring?

JBL's voice is shot. Let's replace him with Mauro.

If it is Rock who's the rumored "major star" backstage, this would be the perfect time to have him interrupt just to shut Vince the fuck up. :lol:

At least this wont be followed by Roman coming out and hold the title belt.

Will see how long they let the Hogan guy in the front row

Vince telling it like it is

Got some imitators at ringside. Keep an eye on the WWE fun police to make them change their clothes.

:lol: starting off the show with Vince yelling "shut up" to everyone

BAH GAWD HE'S BROKEN IN HALF!

Spotted in the crowd so far:

Homemade Panama flag
"Animal lover? Go vegan" sign
Hasidic Jew costume

Poor Sandow having to pay for a ticket to get to Raw :(:(:(

Undertake and Hulk Hogan return to RAW!!! (in the front row)

Vince is on fire tonight folks!

Sounds like he has a head cold, too. My voice always sucks when I have one, and his sounds pretty similarly raspy.

That's an ugly tie, Vince. Where's the trademark Red Power Tie you and Trips always rock?

Stephanie goes out there like people actually watch for her. It's funny.

WHAT A GREAT CONFESSION VINCE!!

If they're not miserable when he comes out at the start of the show, then by god, they will be when he comes out at the end of the show.

Stephanie dressing like a whore - it really is 2000 again.

Overcome the odds? That's John Cena's job, Steph.

Ohh lol

Holy shit Macho Man is alive!!!!!!!

Wait...didn't Vince "admit" to enjoying the misery of others back when "Mr. America" (forgot who portrayed him...) made Vince take a lie detector test back in like 2003?

I think half of the TPWW Tipsters contestants had Triple H in the rumble. Not really much of a secret.

Camera already panning away from the Characters lol

AJ STYLES YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!

wtf

AJ Styles with his longer hair now and beard and whole look.... reminds me of Justin Gabriel.

TIME TO PLAY THE GAME FUCKERS!!

That's the latin translation this time around?

Cheering is edited and piped in ×1,000,000 right now. Guarantee it.

The Coup by the COO

It was the most predictable ending. So predictable I didn't predict it but only cause I figured they would realise how predictable it was.

How soon before those guys in front row are made to change?

JS is bowing in his room.

Rude of them to cut <s>Trips' theme</s> that touching Lemmy tribute so abruptly...

Church of McMahon restarted!!

Fixed.

Vince trying to hide a boner right now.

Loving the full on heel Authority promo.

We're going down the respect road again?

15 minutes and counting

Opening 30 minute authority promo not holding my attention this week, posting about Pokemon in the casual forum.

Sounded like a psychopath tbf

Pissed Vince is the best.

I think he means "Adapt or Perish"

Can we decide on a theme for Paul McMahon?
