Viktor (or Konnor) is the toughest SOB in the WWE.

Jon Stewart is hosting SummerSlam.

Any word if he's gonna be around tonight?

Probably not since he wasn't mentioned in the RAW preview on WWE's website.

How dare that twitter account forget about THE RYBACK

Awwwww. I miss him already.

Something to keep in mind for tipsters, however.

<font color=goldenrod>Oh goody, another long promo to start Raw.

*click*</font>

Was totally expecting Brock "The King of Minnesota" Lesnar to open up the show.

Been awhile since we have started RAW with this scene....

What's the PPV price, Steph?

Repetition is they key in professional wrestling.

How can something be "too big for Wrestlemania"? How does appearing on a show that isn't as big signify that?

This is reminding me of those old Gene Okerland SummerSlam Reports.

YESSSSS!!!! A CONTRACT SIGNING! I AM SO HYPED, YOU GUYS!!!!

It doesn't seem like the Cena - Rollins bout will have an ending.

Why do we need a rundown of the card for Summerslam?

Just get the show started already!

Smackdown rematches on RAW. That's new.

Now they are "Team Paige" lol

3 long hours to fill.

They change names as often as Big Show turns babyface/heel lol

Did they announce a Cesaro/Owens match? Kind of zoned out....

So are the Authority faces now?

Seems odd that Rollins was the one who ended up being the one to destroy the group as the bad guys.

The road to summer slam is just starting now?

Intercontinental Championship match isn't big enough for The Authority to announce it.

Remember when commentators ran down the card before the PPV? Especially during the brand split era when Cole and Tazz would appear to run down the Smackdown portion of the card. Loved that shit.

Who's ready for Summerfest!!??

WEEEEEEOOOOOOOWEEEEEEEOOOOOOWEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOWWEEEEEOOOOO DOOO DOOO DOO DOO DOOO DOOO

I thought they made it pretty clear that since the rematch was obviously too big for WrestleMania, there was only one other time, 16 months later, and only one other place it could happen. And that is at the second-biggest show of the year: SummerSlam. :shifty:

Can't wait until a SummerSlam match is forgotten for a year and a half only to have the rematch at Survivor Series because it was "too big for SummerSlam".

What does Sheamus yell in his entrance now?

End part still sounds like "FELLA", but he yells some stuff before it now....

Gee, I just don't know if I could be persuaded to watch SummerSlam this Sunday, LIVE from the Barclays Center if ESPN's SportsCenter featuring Jonathan Coachman wasn't there all day! :roll:

Something about lobster heads and limes

Good thing Lawler replaces Saxton on Sunday. Wouldn't want anyone to confuse him and Coach.

Sheamus/Orton zzzzzzzz

JBL's right. Calling Sheamus' look "stupid" is WAY too generous. Get with the program, crowds!

ZZZZ Raw right now

According to r/SquaredCircle, he's saying "Faugh a ballagh" which means "clear the way" in Irish. Its a battle cry in that language.

Hope RAW doesn't suck, WWE RAW has been blah for about a month now.

Actually, I think a fresh squeeze of lime would be great with some lobster. :drool::y:

Are WWE making and handing out the Cesaro Section signs?

I thought it was just gibberish meant to express exasperation at not having a private moment to masturbate.
