Who's watching? I'll be here for a bit.

If I do, what do I have to look forward to?

Other than the company of all my friends here at tpww.

I think I put some details in the thread title.

I'll be watching live until my friend gets off of work, then I'm probably going to go get drunk. I look forward to quality time with my TPWW family until then. :heart:

Rumor has it that RP wishes he was Kevin Owens last week and Braun had tipped over a porta-potty freshly used by Alexa Bliss and Liv Morgan.

Fuck yeah, Roman and Lashley BAYBAYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Lol Raw starting strong with a highlight package for Roman and Lashley

WWE Raping me in my throat with more Roman Reigns right off the top of the show

95% chance I'm going to fall asleep during this show due to bronchitis + lack of sleep.

Also is that the first time they've shown ANYTHING from December to Dismember in a highlight package?

Stupid WWE Revisionist history. Bobby was not in the main event of Mania 23

Bob Lashley

Blows my mind that they can get Lashley and Reigns to the point of killing each other in a matter of weeks yet we're waiting for the same thing to happen with Bayley and Sasha Banks for a few months now.

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Lashey/Roman? Can there be less charisma in a match?

RAW opening w/ a 5 minute video package on Roman Reigns....

This crowd is not going to be friendly.

Don't tell me that was a piped in chant.

Did Lashley just call out Roman for not calling him out?

Did my ears deceive me, was Boston just chanting "Lets go Lashley"???

Is this better or worse than when Triple H called out Sting in order to call him out for a future PPV in which he would call him out?

You know how some shows have, like, three main events?

Why does Roman's entrance take longer than 'Taker's?

BIG DOG gets BIG BOOS

Opening movie package, backstage segment, in-ring promo.

Oooof.

Not just last week. All the time.

The boos ones are so real

Maybe they just hate Roman THAT much.

HARD HITTING!

Is this new Lashley music?

Has Lashley gotten over at all since he came back?

Lashley should have charged the ring and just started swinging.

People might actually be in to this if they believed for 1/2 a second that bob stands a chance

It doesn't we just hate him so it feels longer

It's the battle of bad promos, Roman vs "Bob" Lashley

New as of last week. Slight remix. I like the other one better.

Who told Roman that calling Bobby Lashley Bob makes him sound cool or clever because they lied to his f****** face

Are we just done with Bobby Lashley's sisters or nah?

I wanted to hear more about them stapling him to a car door when he wouldn't wear his seatbelt.

OH MY GOD WE NEED THE LOCKER ROOM FOR THIS!

*sarcasm*

Mojo Rawley for sure gives a shit about this.

I have "Snakes On A Train" from The Asylum on in the background in case RAW gets boring.

Strike that. Just jobbers to separate 'em.

I think this segment was cool one time with Lesnar and Undertaker, but that's about it.

I can't even come up with a sentence describing how horrible this is.

Moving up to the mid-card.

Brock should come out now, why not

I DONT WANT TO SEE THEM AT ALL COACH!

:lol: at Balor beating up Corbin instead of helping to separate Reigns and Lashley

Did I see Mike Bennet in there somewhere?

Cena/Brock where Cena was bleeding from the mouth was before that, and pretty decent. This is garbage.

LOL Bob just ran over roman

Where's Braun?

This will end when he shows up.

The Constable needs to assert his author..oh wait

Can we get to the Alexa Bliss segment now?

I want somebody anybody to hit no way Jose in the face next and then Mojo Riley not necessarily in that order

Holy shit Bobby Rhoode is back!

Why the fuck would guys that are supposed to be feuding be working together to stop other wrestlers from fighting. Mojo and Jose, Corbin and Balor. A.O.P. and Titus Worldwide. So stupid.

Regretting watching this. Looking forward to the Supreme Court pick at this point. zzzzzzz

Samoa Joe Brock Lesnar pull apart was really cool

Why is my dude Balor being used as a flunkie in this segment

Tell that to CM Punk. Main Event is the match that ends the show.

This isn't anywhere as good as 'Taker/Brock.

Don't you miss the days when the heels were for the heels and the faces were with a faces now it's all just one giant clusterfuk

All that's missing from this segment is Lashley or Reigns randomly beating up Konnor to match Taker and Lesnar's brawl.

Alexa's face when she see's a black beast.

There you go

Roman takes out the entire RAW roster (sort-of).

Ughhhh.

Sweet Bronchitis take me away.

Doubt Reigns wants to be cursed by invoking Lashley's sisters name. Look what happened to Sami shortly afterwards.

Franky BayBay and Slik BayBay are on the same page, BayBay

oh neat...a purge tv series

Lol yes, the roster can get away with 2-3 tweeners max, not 90% of the locker room.

All this did was remind me of the really good Brock/Taker pull-apart

Trump did announce his 2020 campaign slogan is "Keep America Great'

Hashtag STOLEN from The Purge: Election Year

stop smiling you fat retard

I know Mickie James is far older than most the other divas, but seriously her fake boobs are the best.

I want Alexa Bliss to rub her period on my face

There goes the Kendo Stick being super powerful.

You laugh but he has his priorities straight

Alexa was in a kendo stick match vs Bayley last year at ER

The first 40 minutes of this show has been Roman Reigns + Bobby Lashley promos and Alexa + Nia Bliss match and promo.

What did I do to deserve this

So what was the purpose of Nia turning heel on Ronda if she went right back to being a face against Bliss. Even rehashing the same storyline the last time those two feuded.

And she whooped Bayley's ass in that match too. What is she so scared of?

And now a segment recap involving actual shit and blue liquids.

I was just thinking " where's my Mojo vs No Way Jose rematch ".

You know the stupid name notwithstanding I think Kevin Owens would have been a better for oil for Kurt Angle then Baron Corbin as constable

oh boy...

Please let this be quick.

if this shit was in the Chicago area tonight, the All State Arena or wherever would burn to the ground.

So about Naya Jacks let me get this straight Naya Jack spends most of her time as a heel against Asuka then suddenly she's a face because Alexa Bliss was making fun of her despite having no road to said face turn then after she wins the title from Alexa Bliss she goes against Ronda Rousey and it begins looking like just a friendly competition to want to have only to have Naya Jacks inexplicably turn into a heel again and then lose and then suddenly have her remember that she dislike Alexa Bliss and she's a face again?

Who the hell is writing this it doesn't even flow as a proper story. Why does Vince McMahon insist on having storylines when they clearly don't know how to write them?

This is the third time in a row really is somebody really this invested in no way Jose and Moe Joe Riley

Drop that shoulder, Jose.

If there was an Slammy for Most Useless Feud of 2018, Mojo vs No Way would easily be the heavy favorite to win it.

Dr. Shelby replaced.

Please God end this match

All WWE shrinks share the same office
