Ambrose selling that knee well.

 

[Sephzilla]

You know, American Sniper looks like a good movie. But if I see one more fucking commercial for it I'm going to not see the movie out of spite.

 

[Hex]

The Scorpion King. IN 2015.

Stars someone's kitchen staff.

 

[imBask]

This Raw's been pretty good, overall.

better than last week but I would go as far as saying "good"

 

[Fox318]

 

[reptilescorpio]

Hogan inducting is horse shit, spot light hogging has been fuck.

I really fucking hope Lanny comes out and knocks Hogan out with one punch before he starts talking. Not the place or time for Hogan to talk for someone who has passed on.

 

[UberTag]

"Dean you have to put Rusev over, i'll owe you one"

At least Dean has Renee to go home to... you can't feel too sorry for the guy.
I wonder how many "ones" Ambrose is owed at this point.

I know a guy that is selling it on special with a two pack of t bones. I'm not a customer but I really know a guy. He gave it two thumbs up.

 

[ScribbleD]

It's 10:52, wtf is going on? Is this company not capable of sticking to their fucking timeslot? Is 3 hours not enough for this shit?

 

[Alucard]

How's Raw been tonight? When did Bryan show up?

Just finished my ROH write-up for this week. Check it out here:

ROH TV Episode 173

Features:
-Roderick Strong vs. Mark Briscoe (good, fast-paced match)
-Nigel McGuiness confronting Tommaso Ciampa (really good mic work from everyone)
-Will Ferrara vs. J. Diesel (Eh...round 1 of the Top Prospect Tournament)
-Elgin vs. Ciampa vs. Hanson #1 contender's match (some cool spots, but forgettable overall)

Final grade: B-

GIFS

Crazy Briscoe bump

Ferrara selling

Three-way spot

Worth watching for the opening match and the Nigel/Ciampa/Elgin promo exchange. ME was kinda "blah."

 

[ramoisdead]

Oooooooooo, Dean said a swear.

>3 Hour long show

>Still runs over

Ambrose certainly has a WWE title reign or 2 down the line.

 

[Fox318]

Oooooooooo, Dean said a swear.

"Benoit"

 

[DMczaf]

Ambrose in another feud where the other guy is being built up for Mania.

Get ready for lots of losses and non-finishes!

.

 

[Officerrob]

What a finish...

 

[Ithil]

They couldn't even think of a reason for a DQ.

 

[UberTag]

You know, American Sniper looks like a good movie. But if I see one more fucking commercial for it I'm going to not see the movie out of spite.

This is why you don't watch RAW. You'll be sick of every commercial that airs when you're subjected to 3+ hours of having them drilled repeatedly into your skull.

 

[reptilescorpio]

What is the point of JBL burying the concept of a jobber team? Who does that help?

Maybe JBL wants off Raw too and is trying to hasten the process!

 

[Anth0ny]

great finish

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Oh hey, a non-finish.

 

[Fox318]

What the fuck?

 

[Heroman]

Dean never got his rematch for the usa tile did he?

 

[Sou Da]

That bray wyatt neckbeard guy in the back.

 

[DMczaf]

Maybe JBL wants off Raw too and is trying to hasten the process!

Apparently almost everything JBL says is something Vince is telling him over the headset (according to Meltzer)

19:54 DuncanNightRaw: Kane costs Bryan the Rumble match and that will be your Wrestlemania feud.

19:54 DuncanNightRaw: They will go third and have 10 minutes with Bryan winning with a school boy pin and will STRUGGLE for that IC title belt until the rest of his career

#TeamDuncan

 

[Downhome]

Wow, what a load of cow dung.

 

[Hex]

It is a good finish, they let Dean lose without getting pinned and the fued can continue.

 

[aspiegamer]

That actually made him look strong compared to all the other crap he's been put through the past several months.

 

[T.A.L]

What? I like Rusev but this is dumb. Build up Rusev for Ryback. Sacrifice an actual talented guy who is getting over for a dumb idiot. Logic!

 

[Officerrob]

It is a good finish, they let Dean lose without getting pinned and the fued can continue.

Thanks Vince

 

[UberTag]

Apparently almost everything JBL says is something Vince is telling him over the headset (according to Meltzer)

Pretty much. JBL would be hastening his exit from RAW by not parroting all of the stupid moronic insufferable bullshit spewed from the gaping orifice that is Vince McMahon's maw.
Clearly JBL loves his job and has no intention to climb mountains any time soon.

 

[JavyOO7]

Watching the MNW doc and Hogan actually says this line in re: BATB 2000: "From my perspective I had a final saving grace. I had a contract where I had creative control. Which I have never exercised until the situation."

 

[reptilescorpio]

Just read this. I know it's an old article but I've been catching up on what's happened since 2005.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1302598-wwe-11-events-that-have-damaged-the-wwe-championship-since-the-attitude-era/page/12

A lot of these decisions still baffle me.

Yeah that's where a lot of this 'there isn't just one main event!' bullshit comes in. The main event is for the main title. The main event is the one that is the most important event.
You can have several 'showcase' matches that are there to sell people on the event but there will only ever be one peak for the event. That's just logical.

 

[Kiever Sher]

It is a good finish, they let Dean lose without getting pinned and the fued can continue.

Classic finish, wrestling 101, no problems with it.

 

[Fox318]

How many people there actually have the networkl?

 

[imBask]

that OOOOOOOH chant is so damn funny, it's the most fun i've had watching a RAW in a long time

 

[Alucard]

Just read about Reigns' promo from tonight.


...


LOOOOOL

Also, Bryan vs. Kane?...AGAIN? Okay, I guess. At least Bryan can work pretty safe.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Booker T "I gotta put these guys over man...."

Must have been talking to Vince on the mic after he was told to call them jobber jobberoo jobbers.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]
