Just made this. Bury if unoriginal.

People have to go to sleep tonight, dude, WTF?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

John Cena is the corniest fucker alive. I wish they'd let another wrestler call him out on his corny promos.

They do. Then Cena buries them with a corny promo and beats them clean in the middle of the ring, destroying their credibility forever.

 

[Jimmy King]

Cena in two movies this year and on Parks and Rec tomorrow? Perhaps an Oscar and Emmy in the same year?

 

[bean breath]

Gotta love how the old man dresses in jorts and bright shirts

Isn't he in his mid thirties?

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

Given Brocks age I think this is his last shot at MMA. I think he is taking it no matter what.

He can always come back to WWE in 2 years but for UFC (or that other place) its now or never.

he can go to ufc at any age

not like he's doing anything special there or there is any stiff competition there

they let cm punk in and he is old and has no experience

they can just book brock against another old guy.

 

[serenewarfare]

I'm beginning to think these polls are getting out of hand.

 

[Mr.Swag]

So, John Cena demoted to USA champ search, Roman a heel, and Paige getting more time.


I think they're listening to the fans.

Wow, WWE poll is shooting?

Most middling heavyweights or gatekeepers would kick his ass at this point. And the training camp to prepare for a fight is a lot harder in MMA than the WWE. He's not going to want to do that when he gets older. He could easily go to Bellator they are opening up the wallet and would have no problem feeding him can HWs.

 

[serenewarfare]

Here's the full Brie quote about the NXT divas and getting more time from that video interview.

.Man, if I was a NXT diva, I would, like, not wanna come up to the main roster because you get so much time down there. And as a woman, you know, we love.. like, if you come to a live event, you see we get a lot of time on the live events, but when it comes to TV, we get so frustrated because it’s hard to tell a story in 3 minutes. Especially when they’re like, ‘we want an entrance’, and we’re thinking, ‘what? Can you cut the entrance? We want our time to wrestle.’ Especially after watching the NXT Rival Pay Per View, and see girls get 20 minutes? It’s like a dream. So it’s something we love and we’re trying so hard to get more time. It’s like there’s a 3 hour RAW and you can’t give more time to the Divas?

 

[bean breath]

That camera work was awful

BronsonLee likes to zoom in at the point of contact to add more impact to the move and elevate the performers.

 

[Paracelsus]

Watch as Cena unifies the IC title with the US title since that's the last belt he has yet to win.

 

[Vylash]

I'm beginning to think these polls are getting out of hand.

"find out what's wrong, goddammit!"

 

[Toki767]

I'm beginning to think these polls are getting out of hand.

I wonder if Joey Styles is giving the results to people making the decisions.

 

[funkystudent]

Prediction.

It being super obvious that the Cena match is ending in a DQ to set up the mania match means WWE will swerve and Cena will beat Rusev clean at Fastlane and will go on to being added to the WWE title match at WM or some dumb shit.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Soooo how was raw?

 

[JPeeples83]

The fact that its basically a guarantee that Lesner is leaving after WM and therefore a lock to lose the belt kind of means making the match a 3 way is the only way to add a bit of unpredictability to it.

If only WWE thought of that 2 months ago when planning the rumble.

Then again if they did think of that then we would probably be on the road to Orton vrs Reigns vrs Lesner right now

They've been planning for Brock to be gone for a while - but know the money is in Lesnar putting someone over at WM, especially after ending the streak. Viacom is willing to spend ungodly sums of money for TITO ORTIZ, so Brock would be foolish, and WWE would be foolish as well, to not let him go back into MMA and do something. He'll be worth more again to WWE afterwards - especially if he's booked to be protected, which will be surefire thing in Bellator, and for UFC...make a Masters heavyweight title and put him against the Cro Cops and Arlovskis of the past.

Soooo how was raw?

Raw was pretty good overall. They got the fire they needed underneath Bryan-Reigns, and did an excellent job with Cena-Rusev.

 

[bean breath]

fuck dunn and that camera work jesus christ.

Do you know how I know that you have no clue what you're talking about, fox318?

 

[Alucard]

Good episode of Raw overall tonight. Liked the brawl at the end, but still think Reigns and Bryan have kind of weird characters right now that aren't outright connecting with the audience unanimously. They've both been dickish.

Yeah - that's a major issue with this whole thing. They've turned a 2 into a 6-7, but have greatly damaged both guys in the process.

I think Rusev wins on Sunday. Maybe not clean, but I think he wins. Sets up the rematch. Plus you can have the whole "John Cena doubts himself" storyline they seem to love.

Yes. Mostly good. Even the stuff with Big Show and Kane.

Great episode. I think almost every segment worked well, it still could be trimmed down to two hours tho.

 

[DMczaf]

I told you guys. Tonight was the night

 

[bean breath]

Man, that's some pretty heelish shit right there.

Your Hero, John Cena, everyone.

Pay back's a b*tch, Jack. It's too bad WWE can't lower their storytelling to your level, so that you can easily follow along, but if you have any more questions we'd all be happy to help.

 

[Rhaknar]

Cena on Parks & Rec?

As himself or a character?

 

[serenewarfare]

He was wearing his own t-shirt in the promo, so probably himself.

Linky please?

Holy shit Dusty does not look well. The American Dream is truly dying.

Hopefully NXT will be better when he's gone.

 

[Paracelsus]

Yeah - that's a major issue with this whole thing. They've turned a 2 into a 6-7, but have greatly damaged both guys in the process.

Punk said it best in an interview (wizard world, I think), the "I'm the best" schtick only works so far before they turn on you.

 

[BoboBrazil]

I didn't watch Raw. Is it true fans were chanting you can't wrestle at Reigns? lol

 

[Paracelsus]

It's the new "LEZGOSINA/SINASAKKS" but "UCANTWRESSLE/ROUGHMENREIGNS"

 

[bean breath]

I liked that promo from Reigns

Me too.

 

[Toki767]

"Yes he can"

They just showed some images from the episode. Here's one.

Pray tell Cure why you could not watch tonights The Monday Night Raw which airs live on Mondays every Monday?

fucking lmao...but seriously that gif needs to be in the blackbox next to the Punk smug face one.

 

[Officerrob]

I'm beginning to think these polls are getting out of hand.

That's real? Good lord...

 

[bean breath]

<----Tired of Bryan.
Smug, goofy bearded hobo, even the yes thing is tedious.
And always smiling like he is touched in the head.

I feel the same way.

 

[serenewarfare]

I didn't watch Raw. Is it true fans were chanting you can't wrestle at Reigns? lol

Yes. Male fans chanting "You can't wrestle" and the little girls (and I do mean little girls, like super high pitched) chanting "Yes he can".

 

[Jimmy King]

It's great for how weird it is but it's also damaging two guys who were on their way to being fucked anyway. Reigns was never going to be what they wanted him to be anyway and Bryan's whole gimmick only works if he's treated like the number 1 guy which was also never going to happen. So this at least gives them some much needed dimension other than looking like utter failures.

 

[KissVibes]

I'm beginning to think these polls are getting out of hand.

Why not just have a WWE Network series to find the new Vince Russo? If the "smarks" love your ideas as presented on Smackdown, you become head writer and win $100,000 + lifetime WWE Network access.

 

[bean breath]

Reigns can literally do nothing right in gafs eyes I can't wait until wm when he is standing over db and Brock as champion

That's how I feel too.

 

[bean breath]

Daniel Bryan is actually somewhat interesting as a smug subtle heel.

Your hero, Daniel Bryan, gentlemen.
