Was their even a need to spoiler tag it? I did it any way.... should be kinda intresting.

(BTW, while typing "did" i typed "dies" by mistake, so if something bad happens during tonights show i am gonaa freak out").
 
Looks like a horrible show. They should just tell me what time Christian will be on so I can tune in just for him. If they took Sucky Grenier out of the IC match it could be a decent match though.

Calgary always gets a horrible RAW.

The only good RAW here was one I went to during the 2nd week of the "Invasion" angle. Lance Storm did a run in and superkicked somebody, I forget who, and the 'Dome almost caved in. The loudest pop I've ever heard.
 
I dont want to ruin Raw.. but.

Lance Storm is there. Not sure if they will use him, but considering the pseudo-invasion angle they have Bishoff and Angle using, I figure Heyman might bring the war to Raw.

Ruin it? You just increased my interest immensely. Also Harry Boy Smith is supposed to be backstage too.

The boy makes Chono look small. Maybe I shouldnt call him a boy.


God I'd love to hit Hemme in the face with a spiked bat. Just bring Stacy out and end this shit now.
 
has anyone seen that late night infomercial for one of those VIP room porn things? It comes on Spike or comedy central and Christy Hemme is the host of the infomercial (no, I have not seen the whole thing, I was flipping channels, saw her and stopped).

Also saw her on the biker build off show as some random bike slut that posed with the bikes.

is Harry Boy Bulldogs kid? I heard he would be at the show.
 
lol, they try to turn Victoria heel and the fans pop because they are sick of Christy also.. lol
 
I think Edge is enjoying this shit a bit too much..........I can't even watch that crap.


"You screwed Matt, you screwed Matt". Chant it people!
 
No now that these people are heels the best thing to do is be as silent as possible. In wrestling the worst reaction is no reaction at all. Go find a clip of Victoria's first entrance after they lost the rights to "All The Things You Said". Thats a perfect example of dead silence.

Welp there is Edge and Manjaw. Time to change the channel. Someone let me know when Christian or Storm Show up.
 
meh, looks like Lance is staying backstage tonight :( I kept hoping for the run in to save Benoit.
 
shit, a masterlock segment that was good? How did they let that happen, they better fire someone quick.

HASSAN FOR CHAMP

oh and that Christian promo... TOP FUCKIN TIER

send him to smackdown and job Cena to him PLEASE

Christian cut one hell of a promo and had the crowd in the palm of his hand.

It's his time Vince, let him roll with a title. The Cena backlash will happen soon enough.

Big Daves got new music too....why do I feel he's going to lose to HHH at Vengeance?

DAMN Daivari bladed pretty deep.

Because he will. The day Triple H loses 3 straight PPV title matches is the day when pigs fly.

Give that man the fucking heavyweight belt and let him roll.


Christian needs to put on some muscle before Vince ever hands him the title. If Christian does that his mic skills certainly guarantee him a spot as champ, now just get in shape toothpick boy.

BAH! They gave a title to Michaels and he looked really skinny. So anything is possible...
 
meh, I applaud Christian for not being roided up... plus his size is perfect for his charachter.

I hear ya, but Michaels was the show stoppa and was more cut and muscular than Christian is. It's all up to Vince, and Vince says "Christian get in the fucking gym".


Eddie Guerrero got the title after he beefed up, Edge is getting more of a push after getting bigger (still needs more size) and Benoit of course is small but absolutely friggin shredded. Vince has been known in the past to push big guys and typically has a thing against smaller wrestlers.


Just look at some of the guys he is pushing right now Cena (ripped), Hassan (ripped), Masters (ripped), and Christian..........uhhhh. I think Christian can get bigger without using roids although Edge is apparently roided up and doesn't look that much bigger to me. As much of a jackass as Edge is and as poor as his promo skills are when his music hits and he comes out in that gear he looks like a bad mother fucker.

Christian is on roids. He dodged the question like crazy on Off the Record. It was basically an admittance of it. Roids don't necessarily equate to monster results like Steiner or Batista. Even Orton is on them.

Well I guess he needs to up the dosage because his ass still looks scrawny! :lol
 
I love the fact that Dave looks like a jacked up roid monkey, yet gets winded about a minute and a half into a match.

It's a bitch being 39 isnt it?

Batista is 39? Holy shit, I didn't realize he was pushing 40. I honestly thought the guy was in his early 30's at the most.

Indeed. This man was busted as UFC Heavyweight champ for being on roids:

Yep 39, born in 1966.

Shrot term investment folks.... he won't be around long. Milk it while it lasts.

How long has Batista been in WWE? And when is HHH going to stop thinking we want to see him in main events all the damn time? His shtick is getting old at this point.

Hopefully not long. I know he's the flavor of the month but he's about half notch up from Luther Reigns and a notch and a half up from Heidenrich. Which isnt saying much.
 
My "peep meter" was in full effect..The only real thing I wanted to see was Christian, and I actually fell asleep 25mins into the show, woke up with 15mins left, was like "Oh Shit I missed Captain Charisma" and then his music hits and he cut his bad ass promo.

Seriously though, the WWE gave Jericho the undispuated title(putting him over on the Rock and Austin for goodness sake) and he was about the same size as Christian is now. This is the second time in just over a month that Christian stole the show without wrestling a match *remembers his Backlash promo*...

Christian and Orton should be champions of the brands, doesn't matter which respective titles they own, this needs to happen. Hopefully CC gets drafted to smackdown, because gawd knows a heel champion is unlikey on the Raw roster with The Game running the locker-room.

Time to play the game..........good gawd game over please! :D

I've always been a huge fan of HHH(The Kliq>>>everyone) and I've defended him in the past, but this shit IS getting old. Yeah, IMO Batista is a horrible champion, but when was the last time that the WWE has been able to put over a heel World Champ on Raw??

Going back to the inception of brand titles. HHH is world champ, loses to a face HBK, gets it back, loses and feuds with a face Goldberg, gets it back, loses and feuds with another face Chris Benoit, who loses it to a heel who turned Face the next night, who loses it within a frigign month to who else HHH. Once again, HHH loses the belt to a face champion, who hes no doubt going to get it back from the next PPV..

Its the same cycle over and over. Christian, Orton, Hassan, Jericho, and even Edge, all guys that would make great champions as heels, all of which are going to keep getting held back...Even Hollywood "the greatest heel ever" Hogan let other heels get over as champ, and we all know hogan was a control Nazi.

I totally agree, but when you bang the bosses big tittie daughter every friggin night I guess you get to have it any possible way you might like it. It sucks for other guys who have careers being put on hold while HHH basks in all the glory of being top dog. I liked HHH for a few years myself, but this backstage politic crap really needs to be stopped at some point. The question is when will Vince put a stop to it? He obviously thinks HHH is still the top heel and pretty much refuses to let anyone else have a chance.
