All these comedy deaths is making me scared we're gonna lose Cosby this year, and I refuse to accept that.

Guys, this is rad as heck, guys. Guys, I think this is rad.

 

[Perspicacity]

Fuck Winter

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Jericho/Bray Steel Cage Match tonight.

 

[Mengetsu]

Should I watch Raw tonight? I didn't last week and I see everyone talking about terrible it was. And Jerry Springer tonight? Ugh....

 

[Perspicacity]

It's the season premiere so maybe they'll kill a character off to set the tone for a dark edgier Monday's Night Raw

 

[BassForever]

Thread is dead lol

 

[Heroman]

Cage macth?

 

[Toki767]

Thread is dead lol

Everyone switched over to football.

 

[Branson]

Season premiere?

Bryan's already dead

Can't get any darker than that.

 

[The Silver]

season premiere?

since when in the fuck does Raw have season premiers?

 

[Dick Justice]

Opening Raw with a cage match. Ok.

 

[mightynine]

This open is nice, but it would require them to not write a show five minutes before airtime.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Wait, this little video reel was supposed to convince me to watch Raw and not flee while I still can?

 

[RP912]

Lol season premiere

 

[krae_man]

Season premiere LOL

 

[melonrabbit]

I don't understand this season premiere business.

 

[HerbertFish]

Starting off the show with the main event? Desperate

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

battle of the jobbers

 

[Toki767]

I don't understand this season premiere business.

Now that they got a contract renewel, they can pretend to be the longest running weekly episodic series on television again instead of sports.

 

[RP912]

Trying to get them first hour ratings wwe?

 

[krae_man]

Wyatts? Steel Cage? This will end well

 

[bitesnintendog]

season premiere?

since when in the fuck does Raw have season premiers?

They did one for both shows around 2003/4. I only remember because it was in my town and I think it was the last Raw or one of the last Raws we got before becoming a Smackdown only stop. Now I think we only get Smackdown every other year.

 

[simplythebest]

Lights are on bright tonight

 

[Heroman]

Why are they fighting again?

 

[BoboBrazil]

This match means nothing. Jericho has been made to look weak and so has Wyatt. Now they are fighting again. Wyatt winning doesn't do anything to elevate him. Jericho winning doesn't mean anything.

 

[HerbertFish]

Lights are on bright tonight

What do they represent

 

[Big One]

What is this season premiere business all about? Is it that shitty movie voice-over opening going to be a thing now? Fuck you Kevin Dunn.

 

[melonrabbit]

Doesn't one of the soaps on daytime have that title though?

 

[BassForever]

But Wyatt won that match

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Why are they fighting again?

This question has been hanging over this entire feud.

 

[simplythebest]

I'm calling it now
Orton gets buried again
Cena makes a stupid speech about never giving up
The bellas will be boring

 

[RP912]

Raw feels kind of weird tonight?

 

[Ithil]

This "season premiere" thing they've never mentioned before and never will again is a pretty lame way of pretending this is a special episode. They're gonna get killed by MNF and there's nothing they can do about it.

 

[Toki767]

Doesn't one of the soaps on daytime have that title though?

Probably. No one's going to fact check something stupid like that when it's a wrestling company claiming it.

 

[HerbertFish]

Raw feels kind of weird tonight?

It reeks of desperation.



But honestly that's a good thing. WWE usually does well when backed in a corner.

 

[somedevil]

Hot crowd tonight.

 

[HerbertFish]

I must be the only one who remembers wwe doing raw season premieres in the past. Odd.

 

[RP912]

It reeks of desperation.

There's a different between a certain company putting them in a corner and them putting themselves in that corner at the same time being comfortable with it.

 

[Phatmac]

Guess we're all watching the game?

 

[Ithil]

JBL constantly proclaiming matches to have "a big fight feel" is tiresome. That's not something you can just claim for everything.

 

[melonrabbit]

Probably. No one's going to fact check something stupid like that when it's a wrestling company claiming it.

Guiding Light had 15,762 episodes over 57 years. I think they win by a longshot.

True true. I was talking about the nfl though. Wwe certainly hasn't helped themselves of course

WWE is really the only one to blame for that. Constantly pushing Cena is hurting the company and it's showing more than ever. Yes the merch and ratings are good, but they could be much much better and that's the issue with Cena. WWE is convinced that Cena is THE GUY to go to because he's a ratings draw. The problem is that Cena isn't getting any new viewers to the product, and anyone who is an adult who might be interested in the product are constantly reminded that Cena is still at the top.

Are you insinuating that tonight is NOT the greatest night in the history of our sport?

 

[Heroman]

Man, this is waste of a steel cage.

 

[Anth0ny]

It's the season premiere, everyone.

Season premiere.

Big things going down tonight.

Spoiler

please don't watch football

 

[Branson]

Guess we're all watching the game?

Nah. I could care less about football. Even less if my home state team isn't playing.

 

[Nameless]

Man I don't think I have the words to describe how much I've grown to loathe Michael Cole.
