The "Post WrestleMania 35" Monday Night RAW Thread
Will we see more call-ups from NXT? What will the fallout be as we make our way to the "International Superstar Shakeup" scheduled for next week...

I have to work tonight so I won't be watching. Maybe we can start the thread around 12am eastern standard?
|
I have a feeling there aren’t going to be any more call-ups since they’ve already brought a ton of people up this year and don’t seem to have plans for any of them other than Black and Ricochet.
|
Yeah! The main rosters are already bloated and they're not doing a good job of handling the amount of talent they have. Would it hurt to ship underutilized talent like Breeze, Crews, Brooke etc. back to NXT in order to refresh them? It (somewhat) worked for Tyson Kidd.
|
Plz no more callups
|
Probably something lame like Seth vs Baron Corbin and Becky Lynch vs Lacey Evans or w/e
|
I didnt watch the last 2 matches. Gonna try to catch up today. Just too much wrestling. They really need to trim 2 hours off that show. I fell asleep. And the show was not boring me at all. I just cant watch wrestling for that long. Trim the Women's tag match down. Get rid of the Kurt Angle retirement match because it was obviously crap and made zero sense. I dont need a 4 minute HHH or Balor entrance. Trim the entrances down entirely. Also dont need a 25 minute HHH vs Batista match though i'll be honest, I really liked that match. Even though Batista fell through the ropes during his entrance.
|
There was a time when Corbin had really short matches on NXT and everyone was okay with it.
|
I like Corbin and i might make a thread about this.
|
Bray Wyatt should be back it's a matter of what show he's on
|
If "AJ vs Daniel Bryan" have a 60 minute iron man match at Mania "HHH vs ____" will go for 61 minutes

Ambrose is gonna attack Raw and it will turn out that Ambrose leaving complete with missing Wrestlemania was a Brian Pillmanesque swerve from the bootleg Brian Pillman himself.
|
Will he threaten to piss in ROHs ring next?

Ryder & Hawkins to lose the belts, I think. Not sure to who. I’m going to guess it will be a random SmackDown team making no sense prior to the draft. I’ll go...Rusev & Nakamura, but The Bar would not shock me.
Maybe Mojo and someone like Jinder? Seems very WWE. I can see Matt Riddle and Undisputed Era called up. Vince was probably impressed by them. I think Sasha is going to turn on Bayley too, just because why else lose the tag belts? |
Ryder & Hawkins = The B Team by May
|
Plz no more NXT callups....
|
LARS should return tonight and challenge Seth for the title and then win the belt

Jesus Christ, Curtis Axel has been on the main roster for about 9 years now. He has been Curtis Axel for 6.
|
lol Lars. No thanks. WWE logic has me thinking Dean Ambrose might be going after Seth. If not him then for sure Corbin. Drew isn't going to get Seth fresh off a loss to Reigns.
Ryder & Hawkins are going to end up facing Ricochet and Black with the way things are going. Is Kairi on the main roster now after last night? Either way, I see her on the main roster soon. Maybe Bazler too if Ronda is leaving. Undisputed Era also probably on their way up. Hopefully they send a few acts down though to compensate. |
Felt like he was on the bubble until his Axelmania stuff started. Finding a comedy niche really may have saved the guy.

I can see Black & Ricochet besting Ryder & Hawkins in their “hometown” and then being confused about why the crowd gives them a bit of shit. Very WWE.
|
I feel like Axel just had bad luck by coming along at the wrong time. I think he would have been a much bigger deal in his dads generation. His look, his style, everything about him just makes me think he would have been way better off in the business 20-30 years ago.
|
Last time I watched Raw, Axel and Dallas were doing a segment hocking merch, and Axel made a reference to being Intercontinental Champion. Was actually one of the highlights on the show.
Kind of want to see a Mean Street Posse vs. B-Team feud. |
Remember when WWE were sincerely trying to present Bo Dallas as a babyface who could carry a company? “The smile for miles.”
|
So weird that Axel got that push in 2013 basically because Brock and Rock had both separately put in words for him (well, Brock is a long-time friend). I like Axel, but it makes you wonder what someone like Rock saw. Like, did he think he was going to show all this charisma?
|
I do not remember him being pushed at a "carry the company" level. But yea, I remember his original push. But his gimmick, while funny, was never ever going to get over. I remember they soured on him and that push ended pretty quickly.
|
A random Curtis Axel fact: He has three sons. I know two of them are named Brock and Blade. They immediately are the manliness of men and carriers on of the Hennig legacy.
|
Curtis should have been given the Mr Perfect gimmick to carry on his dads legacy. Cocky heel role. I really think it would have worked but at the same time......it's kinda Dolph Zigglers thing to an extent I guess.
|
By that I mean Ziggler was already playing the Hennigesque cocky heel character.

Black and Ricochet are two of the IWC’s favorites in a crowd almost exclusively filled with them. |

Axel never had the same charisma as his dad. Cocky heel would have felt so forced. He feels more like what his grandfather would have been. He seems a man’s man, and a flannel vest-wearing farmboy sort of straight-shooter.

I hope we don't get anymore NXT callups. Nobody from that brand should ever get called up again unless WWE is instantly putting them in the main event.
|
I’d be fine with Matt Riddle winning the Universal Title tonight.
