Raw Thread - 10/8/18 - HHH & HBK respond to the Brothers of Destruction's heinous attack. In the year 2018.
 

Also, two six person tag rematches from Australia. Evolution and Crown Jewel should both start to shape up.

The preview makes me think this is a huge mistake. But here we are.

Trish Stratus will be there too.

meh..just hope I don't miss Brees breaking the passing record while listening to the nail on a chalkboardconics.

I wouldn't be shocked to be Heath Slatering this thread this week.

At least they're in Chicago. Hot crowd.

Chicago.

Oh boy.

Better tell the crowd he ain't coming back.

How is this going to lead into a 25 minute Baron Corbin match

Anybody else thought he was gonna open up by saying "Are you ready?"

What a slap in the face. At least when Cena and Rock was Once in a Lifetime, they waited a year until their second Once in a Lifetime match. This Last Time Ever match is only like a month apart from the Second Last Time Ever match, which was like eight years after the End of an Era match.

For the last time ever *COUGH* in Australia *COUGH*

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

ABT, I regret to inform you I'm only probably here for an hour or two. I want to fit in NJPW's King of Pro Wrestling show from last night before bed.

This recap video for Taker-HHH is doing a great job of hiding how much that match dragged on and was somewhat boring at Super Show Down.

I feel like this will be a really boring RAW but I'm going to give it a shot

Aside from the WWE staff, probably nobody.

Now we get there.

Quick what's the best way to kick off Raw ?
I know I know with an old schoolTriple H promo

I'll be in Chicago for Crown Jewel. Hopefully no one will want to watch it with me.

I'm not mad at you.

A membership to New Japan World is looking better and better right now.

Not very Christian of him to tell us to suck it

The most anti-climatic "I'm coming out of retirement" speech possible.

Granted, the crowd popped for it being framed as "DX is back"

And so ends the only retirement angle that seemed like it would stick.

I don't understand how anybody could even work up the energy to be excited about another DX reunion.
Guys you're almost 50 come on

The promo sorta made sense, but please, not that fucking match.

Are we going to get dick and poop jokes at the Undertaker's expense all month?

Wow, those new DX shirts are awful

So with DX back again, who's getting the Spirit Squad treatment of being shipped back to NXT or future endeavors?

Night of a thousand rematches

Really glad they are doing several re-matches from Super Showdown tonight. Real useful show that was.

No ill will to Shawn.

If someone asked me if I'd come out of retirement for a million dollars in oil money, my boots would already be on before the sentence was finished.

Probably Dolph again

TPWW, ARE YOU READY...……..to see a politician, a man who can barely walk, a corporate suit, and born-again Christian/wannabe actor, get back in the ring?

Torn because I have many fond memories of All State Arena but then again...just burn it down, please. Just burn this whole show down

Katie Vick 2.0

Shawn and Taker are my two of my all-time faves

and I can say this wholeheartedly: I'm not excited about this at this time.
Shawn's retirement was the one I hoped would always stick. The one who kept his word.

Yeup. I like to think Vince just kept tossing briefcases of money onto a table every time HBK said "no" until he relented. Maybe even used the spare MitB cases so they became legit money in the bank.

Suit with no shirt.

Bold choice Lio

Don't worry, Seth Rollins is wrestling tonight.
