[antonz]

[Pickles the Firecat]

Fuck, they got me.

 

[Thorakai]

YES

 

[Ilive1up]

woooooo

 

[The Frankman]

Oh shit Shawn...

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

Lol Shawn is still amazing at doing promos. Also he's coming off as the face right now... Why do Faces always come off as heels and vice versa?

 

[darkside31337]

That was awesome.

 

[G-Fex]

BITE HIS HAND SHAWN BITE HIS HAND!

 

[MisterLuffy]

lol Shawn Michaels

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Guys Bryan isn't over, it's all about the chant. The arena's cheering him for blindsiding HBK because of the chant, right guys?

 

[krae_man]

"Everything a face does is okay because they are face"

Why are they a face? because we said so!

 

[canadian crowe]

Okay. i care about Bryan again.

 

[somedevil]

Who is writing this show? Also, this crowd is great.

 

[Bowser]

damn dbrine just got his heat back

 

[KissVibes]

IT'S STONE COLD DANIEL BRYAN.

 

[TheWarrior]

Crowd is pretty good tonight

 

[antonz]

That is one reason why Shawn is the best. That whole segment with Bryan was fantastic

 

[Ithil]

Daniel Bryan just won the Smile Championship! Michaels has lost his Smile Championship!

 

[sf2fanatic]

B+ wrestler makes A+ wrestler tap out!!!

Headlines the Rumble now!!

 

[The Frankman]

OH MY GOD I THINK HE BROKE HIS FREAKING ARM
HE BROKE HIS FREAKING ARM

 

[FallingEdge]

Now this the aggressive Bryan we need.

 

[Lost Fragment]

That segment was so great. Dat subtle heel turn.

 

[Plywood]

Now cut your hair Daniel.

 

[joelseph]

OH MY GOD I THINK HE BROKE HIS FREAKING ARM
HE BROKE HIS FREAKING ARM

Number of broken arms this #RAW: 2

 

[Bowser]

Dolph Ziggler ‏@HEELZiggler 3m

@steveaustinBSR #RAW

lmao

 

[G-Fex]

Kane returns!

To job!

 

[SoulPlaya]

Holy shit at that crowd pop for Kane.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

HBK still the best in the business.

 

[Nocturnowl]

For a while, if someone was holding the briefcase, you got the feeling that the company was behind that person and they were going to get a solid push at some point in the future.

The it became... MITB holder becomes a jobber, but hey, they have that briefcase and at SOME point they're gonna cash it in and become champ. It could lead to something decent (Bryan) or they could fuck it up horribly (Ziggler).

Now it really means fuck all. Sandow has been jobbing since he got the thing and just got fed to one armed super Cena. Christ.

I think Swagger was the turning point, the feeling that the company was behind the case holder really took a hit with Swaggers' flop of a reign and the booking that surrounded it (even before he won the case since he was jobbing on the road to WM) The MitB PPV arrived in the same year diluting the gimmick with three cash ins in one year, granted Kane and Miz actually had solid reigns gained from their cash ins but it's not been the same since that year.

 

[The Frankman]

Number of broken arms this #RAW: 2

Nowhere near the number of torn quads in one episode.

 

[blackaroni]

Who is Kane supposed to be feuding with? Wyatt family?

 

[toddhunter]

Lol at Michaels still selling the arm. Makes Cena even funnier.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Now hopefully Bryan doesn't return to being a sarcastic twat on Smackdown.

 

[Kaladin]

Bryan is learning how to Stone Cold.....don't trust Jose Lothario!

 

[Mr. Luchador]

The WWE games really do capture the WWE in fairness.

Both are canned, dated offerings of the same shit every week/year.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

Crowd is pretty good tonight

Crowd is 1000% better than last night.

 

[G-Fex]

Who is Kane supposed to be feuding with? Wyatt family?

hopefully he jobs to them, sending him down to lower mid-card heck.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Ugh WWE and WHC angles already happened Punk is still stuck in that universe

 

[Anth0ny]

That excuse actually does have some merit, though. One of the smartest guys I know on another forum still keeps it on as background noise every week. He knows the shows are bad, he knows that there's very few compelling guys left on the roster, and he knows that things are going to get worse before they get better. But he just does something else while it's on. He only keeps Raw on because at this point, it's like "comfort food."

If something actually exciting happens, then he just has to turn his head to the TV to see what's up. If not, then he can keep grading papers. In either case, he's not losing anything by having it on. It's just been part of his routine. I admit to have done the same thing, but when I mentioned last year that i was going to stop watching for a couple months, I meant it. I just wish some others here who claim to have quit WWE would actually follow through.

That's what I do, too. I don't have the patience to watch 3 hours of this shit. 20% of my attention is on Raw, 70% on games, and 10% on GAF.

It works.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Lol at Michaels still selling the arm. Makes Cena even funnier.

His face was the seller. Red as Kanes outfit

 

[Ithil]

First hour of RAW, CENAWINSLOL aside, was very good, in that a lot of shit happened.

 

[Branson]

The WWE games really do capture the WWE in fairness.

I hate that it's getting good reviews too. I'm part of the problem. But if they didn't have universe I wouldn't care.

 

[darkside31337]

Crowd is pretty good tonight

Yeah. It was crazy walking around downtown today. So many people in wrestling shirts, it was bizarre. Wish I could have went to the show today but got stuck at work late tonight.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

That acting!
