RAW: Roman vs Lashley, may God help us all ***OFFICIAL THREAD***
 

Might skip this one. It's shark week.

No reason to watch the main event obviously.

Might hang around for the first hour or so and be on my way.

Vince is here.

This is super-duper important.

Time for my weekly existential crisis and then G1. Although I heard Night 4 of Block A wasn't that great, so perhaps there will be no cure tonight.

Triple H and Steph.

All this for a pregnancy announcement?

Vinny Mac is here

"The XFL will be taking the first hour of Raw."

Boo this man.

Nikki Cross just debuted on RAW

Vince looks great.

lol Did they just spoil Nicki Cross debut?

Time to announce a wrestling reality show filmed in Saudi Arabia.

Billie and Peyton on RAW r/n

Vince may have had a face lift, he looks great.

Maybe you should tape it.

damn she is in the center too

Nikki Cross too

Look at Baron Corbin trying to suck up the Triple H by finding a matching suit kind of

"Ladies, you are different than the men. Let's remember how every moment we give you is a huge deal"

"You're fired"

Can Asuka stay on RAW plz

To the point already.

Are they about to announce an Alexa Bliss Playboy spread?

"Now if you could go back to catering and make all these men standing behind you sandwiches, we had a problem with the catering company this week"

HHH trying not to cry

I don't mind it this time but far to many times they put every member of the roster on stage.

Let's start another one.

#GiveBraunthebelt

Goddamn mother fucking direct tv now this is the second week in a row they've botch Raw for me. I'm dropping this shit.

rockstar spud sighting

Triple H must be cursing up a storm because my feeds sound keeps cutting out

EVOLUTION IS A MYSTERY!

This would be the best time to have Ronda come out and throw an arm bar on Stephanie.

"Evolution" eh?

Oh please if our voices really matter to you we wouldn't have to sit through Bobby Lashley and Roman Reigns

Missed the opening segment, was it about the Women's PPV or tag belts?

And did Steph take most, if not, all the credit for this big announcement?

Kind of expected that the Mae Young Classic finals would take place there. Much better choice than after some Smackdown taping or whatever again.

Women's only PPV at the end of October.

Smackdown women are probably saying "I flew into Cincinnati for this?"

Nice all the championships and the Mae Young Classic that is a great call.

Looking forward to that event..... will watch it and enjoy......

Wonder what the ratings will be next week if Roman Reigns wins tonight.

I doubt it. They are probably super fucking happy.

Is Nikki Cross in the Mae Young Classic?

should have named the pay-per-view "sorry for Saudi Arabia"

All Women's PPV, somehow they will put Roman over.

Could already easily guess its going to be bad or poor if anything else on tv is interesting next week or good if RAW is the only option left.

The sad part is that it's not outside the realm of possibility Roman is going to enter the Mae Young classic as Rachel Raines and win the whole thing

B-Team is so good.

Elias in his finest bath-robe

LOL they forgot the belts.

Dammit at Elias getting interrupted.......

Was looking forward to seeing him after listening to his album earlier.....

I wonder if this means they're going to drag out the Sasha/ bayley drama until October

I do hope that we end up with some kind of double turn so that Bo and Bray can join up together, maybe in a triple threat tag team title match or something.

Poor manners by Matt and Bray to interrupt what would have been a majestic musical performance tonight.

Elias should just crack that guitar over Matt or Bray's skull.

ABT currently rolling in his grave

A interrupted Elias for this s*** really

I just searched for Elias on Spotify and didn't see anything, is the album a gimmick? Did I get worked?!

THESE BATTLE SCARS

Okay nvm just found it on iTunes and previewed the songs, they suck.

Matt and Bray about to j-o-b

I love how the B team has a theme this badass in contrast to what they are

You shut your mouth

I mean when you been listening to Stevie Nicks throughout the day...

I love Maryse's plump titties.

:eek: Besmirching the musical prodigy that is Elias

Apparantly Trish and Lita will be at Evolution, if they lace up the boots I'd love to see them go up with Royce and Kay.

Elias will tour with Fozzy at some point I'd bet money on that.

You heretic why would you listen to that when you can listen to real music " nothing I can't do" made me cry real human tears

That was, unique.

Opening act is Black Machismo performing hits from BE A MAN.

"Hollywood Hulkster you're at the end of your rope
And I'm a kick ya in the butt and wash your mouth out with soap
Cuz like Rodney Dangerfield you gets' no respect
So come on Hulk let's wreck so I can put you in check"

Between then and now Lita really needs to work on her moonsault so she won't kill anybody I get very very scared when she does that move

Listening to WWE: Walk with Elias on Google Play Music: All Access (never get tired typing that). Pretty damn good! Triple Platinum on the way!

Hardy/Wyatt heel turn

They always keep a distance with Bray and Bo... can't wait for that to pop off. Hardy is in awesome shape right now.

The fact that the B team has the belts right now gives me hope that Asuka will win the women's Title One Day

Is it just my TV or are you guys seeing a yellow tint on hardy?

LOL It must be your TV because honestly he looks like he's been tanning with Hogan.

Okay Finn Balor vs Drew McIntyre is a match that I didn't know I wanted to see.

Who the hell are O.A.R.

Shattered (Turn the car around) is their big hit.

lol at Finn Balor being "Hey, what are you doing in your gear? You don't wrestle!" to Gable

How dare they taunt us with the return of Gable's catchphrase.

Balor hanging out w/ his new best friend Chad Gable backstage

Corbin legit brain injured during his football career

O.A.R is here to remind me of college

I hope they have a bunch of segments tonight of Finn Balor having fun in his Funhouse backstage

Constable Corbin forcing Finn to change in a playhouse

That Finn/Corbin skit seems like something straight from a Nickelodeon show.

FRIENDSHIP WITH BRAUN OVER
CHAD GABLE IS MY NEW BEST FRIEND

That scene from Home Alone 2 of Harry and Marv hiding out in the kids houses in the toy store just popped in my head.

Guess Corbin moved on up to evil Bond villain type look for this week. Probably pays better than fancy bartender Corbin.

"This is everything wrong with WWE" right now seems like an overreaction but... That's definitely where my head went immediately.

Finn's Funhouse
