Raw Thread - 5/21/18 - The Road to Money in the Bank continues!
 

What the hell is happening tonight? Something about Bobby Lashley's sisters?

Bobby Lashley's sisters debut.

I'm here.

Smackdown is apparently worth 1 billion dollars and nothing means anything any more.

Oh yeah I forgot about Bobby Lashley sisters tonight raw turns into hostel

Oh no. Nia will be cutting a promo. This can't be good.

The Nia Jax/Ronda Rousey contract signing. And Bobby Lashley's sisters.

Yeah. That's gonna get me to tune in.

Not.

Could you imagine Ronda and Brock both being top champions who never wrestle?

My are my balls tingling...

Bobby Lashley's sisters segment will either be hysterical or horrible w/ no middle ground

Is Stephanie McMahon Bobby Lashley's sister?

Steph looking good, as always

Awesome here comes the ball Breaker Deluxe man that shows off to a good start

B show..Stephanie 20 minute promo. ehh....ehhh

Go Lightning!

wait a minute I thought she had a broken arm she heals faster than fucking Deadpool

Oh, Steph's back and she's mediating the contract signing for Nia & Ronda.

And here's Roman. Oh boy.

Guess Nia is turning #heel later

GRrrrr I'm da BIG DERGGGG. THIS BER MY YERDDDDDDDDDDDD I GET TILTERED SHERT CAUSE I"M DER BIG DERGGG

:rofl:

"Management has an issue with Roman Reigns".

Not even trying to hide this new angle.

Nia was just a heel like three months ago.

Wonder if Reigns will have anything new to complain about this week or just the same tired shtick with him.

Fuck right on off with that shit.

Poor Roman. He's trying so hard.

Please God don't let nia speak please don't let Nia speak please don't let Nia speak please don't let Nia speak

Yup.

Then he runs into BRAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN. And Roman runs the other way.

So are we to understand that a temper is a bad thing for a professional wrestler to have?

He's going to destroy himself?

Steph is da boss

SAVE US, KEVIN

"Roman Sucks!"
Commentary table: "the fans know how big Roman Reigns heart is that he will never quit"

Still going w/ this 'Brock never wrestles' angle to try and get Roman cheered, eh

That's worked so well thus far

Only Samoan ones.

I feel like we're building towards a TAG MATCH BROTHAAAAAAAAAAAA

Yeup, especially for Brock's bank account.

Is he still f****** Harping on Brock Lesnar really he really thinks that's the way in

Wow.

Kevin Owens must be laughing inside right now.

lol at KO saying he likes Roman Reigns as an uber heel tactic.

KO about to eat a pin

This should be a pretty good match on the real though. Unless they do something crazy like have Mahal mess it up at the end.

They still don't get that Roman Reigns wrestling isn't what's best for business.

I look forward to years from now when Roman Reigns is hailed by aWWE as a legend who was loved by all and second to none in the ring

I'll take 20 child sized Roman Reigns Samoan Temper flak jackets, please.

You tell 'em fan in the green jersey!

Doubt WWE cares anymore considering their bank account got way fatter after somehow conning FOX and NBC to give them a ton of cash for a new tv deal.

They really should have put Reigns and not Rollins in the Authority when the first Shield split happened.

owenbrown I see u lurking

what u think of this match

Kevin Owens is giving this one the old HBK sell job.

That knife edge chop followed by the no-sell it's basically a microcosm of Roman Reigns career and the source of the fans hatred

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">So KO had an IC Title match against Seth and an MITB qualifying match last week.

Coach : " Guy's i have a gut feeling we havent seen the last of Stephanie McMahon tonight "

Umm she announced she would be back for the contract signing asshole lol

Wait a minute so they want to push Roman Reigns as this vulnerable Babyface yet have him get right back up from being assaulted by Owens yeah that makes sense

i wish Superman existed...and he'd come show RR a true punch.

Yay. Jinder's here to bust up this awful match.

Yeahhhhh...our hero has arrived.

Nice of Jinder to help his pal Kevin Owens. Wonder how Sami feels about Jinder trying to move his way into the status as KO's Best Friend.

Oh Seth, stay away.

You'll become guilty by association.

Uh-oh he kicked out of the Superman punch Raines may have to reach down deep and pull out something we've never seen before perhaps a spear from the second rope

"Seth Rollins is crazy over again? QUICK. RUB HIM AGAINST ROMAN REIGNS. PASS THE POPS"

Seth Rollins has CENA NUFF of Jinder Mahal

Oh yes our Canadian turn Indian savior is here thank you gender Mahal
* realizes Roman Reigns vs Jinder Mahal is still in our future...*
Seth Rollins what are you doing bro let him die.

ITS A TAG MATCH BROTHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

UGH! IT BECAME A TAG TEAM MATCH?!

My son and I are there...fucking nosebleed seats...

Watch Dean Ambrose and Sami Zayn come out and this evolves in to a 6-man.

Have fun Purgy!

Warrior's ghost could come running down the ramp and they'd still go to commercial break.

1st hour all about roman damn

Roman is to Rollins what NSYNC is to Justin Timberlake

So I guess we won't get a dope Seth Rollins singles match this week either. Yikes.

cyber bullies out in full force on twitter

sm damn h


<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Roman not getting cheered has actually worked pretty well, to the tune of billions of dollars in profits in a single day &amp; the WWE Shop site crashing because so many people were trying to buy Roman's new merch that dropped, which is now sold out &amp; on back order.

:lol: at Cole and Graves praising Jinder's evolution as a star. Only thing that evolved was him discovering the benefits of roids in the WWE.

40+ minutes to start Raw dedicated to Roman and/or Jinder? Oooooof

[IMG]http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...psedy8qa2k.jpg[/IMG]

that was taken about 7pm

Another commercial break? Is this running the whole show?

nice shot

Those seats could be worse, Purgatory.

I mean, I can't imagine how, but I'm sure they could be.

Holy shit 4 straight segments of Roman and K.O. to open Raw. Those writers must have had a tough week.

the entire first hour of the show has been about THE BIG DOG so far

Remember when Raw was an hour total?

Huge coke party to celebrate the Fox deal.

Ten at around 6PM they realized they still had to write Raw.

This would honestly all be fine if there was something on the line or a reason to give a fuck about this match at all.

The year was 1771, and the top album was Mozart.

Hour 2 will be all Rousey/Nia/Steph.

Hour 3 will be a replay of Titus Worldslide on loop.

It's finally over.

"Don't take anything away from Roman Reigns."

Jesus Christ

Tag match was pretty great. Didn't really do anything for anyone besides Rollins in the end.

Oddly enough, I was just invited to a coke party seconds ago. Should I even bother DVRing this?

Jeez this segment is still going?

Good. He's obviously the best one out there.

Yes but only for the segment with Bobby lashley's family Inquisition

Good idea. Replaying this Bobby Lashely interview.

What the fuck is Bobby Lashley talking about?

Knowing this company though they're going to try to do something to kill his momentum because it's not their Golden Boy getting over enjoy it while it lasts.

How interested are you in finding out more about Lashely's messed up family?

Everyone shut the fuck up.

Bobby Lashley’s sisters are here.

OH NO NOT A LASHLEY RECAP

We’re you not around for the Bobby Lashley family stories thread I made?

Oh man. You missed some good stuff.

"Renee have a seat next to me and let me tell you about the time my sisters fed me ground glass.
You should have seen the lacerations"

I wouldn't trade my sister's for anything in the world.

I'd like to hear more about Bobby Roode's cousin-in-law, or something equally as stupid.

They already are pulling the classic Cena tactic of letting Reigns leech off of Rollins' popularity. Just got to squeeze it dry before they toss Rollins to the side and look for another unfortunate crowd favorite.

If I was the Usos, I'd probably fear being randomly traded to RAW since Reigns recently said he wants to form a stable with them in the future.
