Payback was a bore but it was okay background noise.

But the main-event was cool. People went bonkers for the SHIELD and it's sad that Reigns kept the song because it would be amazing to hear the reaction when they get back together. It will be somewhat diminished.

Also, Rollins loses his amazing finisher but gets the pedigree. Could be worse.

 

[Entropia]

Bo Dallas must be pissed with New Day completely stealing his gimmick.

They really just need to have him try to join.

Kevin Nash in a match against HHH that nobody was asking for

did Nash actually have good matches in WCW or was he an attraction due to all the NWO business? or was it because he was Kevin Nash and that was enough to get him over.

Makabe doing the voice acting for Erectus in Mad Max. Pretty awesome.

Ric Flair has a podcast now? I'll listen to it on my run just to see how carny it is.

You forgot to mention Nathan Jones!

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Erectus was Nathan Jones, so it was a nice touch too. Wrestler voicing for wrestler

Card Subject to Change and all, but scheduled live events post-EC are advertising Sheamus as IC champ

Nah, you'll get away with it. The pop for that intro will be batshit, that's the bit people are waiting for.

The Shield theme was like the modern day Stone Cold theme for instant pops. Fans knew shit was about to go down once that theme hits.

Top 5 themes to pop to...

1. The Shield's theme
2. Stone Cold's theme
3. The Rock's theme
4. Enter the Sandman
5. The Four Horsemen's theme

which makes it funnier because you will have Rollins and Ambrose back in their Shield gear. Nothing will change about Reigns.

Totally forgot about that.

Man, cannot wait for that.

EDIT: Altought it would still be better if we didn't listen to the song every week.

Nice. I've always thought Makabe would be a damn good seiyuu.

Sooooo it seems due to House Show advertising that it's quite likely

Spoiler

Sheamus

will be winning the IC belt at Elimination Chamber.

Good. I saw the new Sheamus for the first time last night and his entrance is phenomenal. Like, top guy-level shit.

Vinnie Chase and the boys are coming to Monday Night Raw.

Adrian Grenier, Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon and Jerry Ferrara, better known as the stars of the upcoming “Entourage” film, will join the May 25 edition of Monday Night Raw as the show’s guest stars. Visitors to the WWE Universe always make for memorable evenings, but it’s been some time since Raw welcomed four celebrities under its roof, so shenanigans are sure to unfold when the Hollywood foursome mixes it up with WWE’s most outlandish personalities.

Tune into Raw May 25 at 8/7 C on USA Network to see what goes down when the would-be “superheroes” join the WWE Universe!

[Striker]

I don't care about a podcast, playboy. Jericho doesn't have the credibility to put over main eventers in 2015. He did nothing for Wyatt last year except further his descent down the card.

Down the card? It was complete filler to segue into the Dean Ambrose feud. And boy, that feud certainly helped everyone in the process. Fact is, he's won everything he's been in except the Cena feud and Undertaker match and people still seemingly act like he's berried or lessened by other guys. Creative, like they do with nearly all other guys, has no idea what they're doing with him. Now it's probable they reunite the Family again, but really, who really cares at this point.

As for Rollins, how can anyone accept a guy who's 220-ish lbs. to dominate dudes bigger than him? Makes no sense and cheating and getting sneaky, cheap wins ties into being a heel. He's not Mark Henry or Brock Lesnar. They need more quality heels, it's lackuster especially with Rusev in the current spot he's in.

Douchetastic! The guys from Entourage will fit right in with the writing staff.

No love for Brock or HHH's theme for pops?

 

[Cybit]

I was sort of hoping that after Reigns said "loser buys the beers", he instead said "lets go get some beers" and Dean and Reigns leave the match, cut to a bar, where they're drinking beers, and turn into APA 2.0.

Might have marked out a little. That, or after Reigns comments about the beer, they look ringside and try to find some beers from the crowd to drink.

 

[Sephzilla]

So this was Roman's like 3rd or 4th title shot. How long until Vince ape's the Sami Zayn "can he win the big one" angle and puts it on Roman?

 

[Plywood]

That should be his next look entirely. Get it done Sandra.

If only

Bork is honorable mention and I don't think people really pop for trips theme on the level of the themes on the list.

 

[Data West]

I thought Devitt was The Demon King though

 

[Barrage]

Ugh, well the rose-tinted glasses on the WWE Network are coming off. Payback is running like absolute shit. I shouldn't have to stream the PPV on a site when I have the fucking Network.

Roman was the best part of Payback last night, I can't follow that he still generates enmity amongst the crowd, the guy is fucking alley. ISEC needs to get off it. Their baby boy is done, let the man get his shine on. He's the muti to this boring ass Seth/Kane prog.

So what you are saying is instead of pushing guys to fast,you give them time to get comfortable and they turn out good.

What a novel concept

The IWC has been easing off Roman for a while now

I legit love that Roman and Dean are still best friends in kayfabe. It's like a small island of humanity in a sea of inhuman cyborgs.

I'm real excited for MitB this year. There's no obvious choice.

I can imagine not even WWE wrestlers want to watch Raw unless they really have to, so I can accept that Reigns just didn't see it happening.

Is there a gif of Roman trying to work the crowd as they chanted for one more table spot? It was very...Romanesque.

Someone on Reddit translated Rusev's I Quit stuff

Ahhh no...ahhh I give up! Next time we will crush you! I give up! Stop! I told you! I'll crush you Cena! Damn your old mother, Cena! I will crush you! That's enough, I told you!

Friend, every word uttered in commie-speak translates to "I quit, America is #1". I didn't need some fancy-pants Reddit thing to tell me what my ears heard.
