The first RAW with Goldberg as champ… Predictions?
Hope Taker and Balor return sasha turns heel
You think Taker and Balor? Would love it
They need to start building matches for these two
We get another Seth medical update tonight too
I wonder what it will be
Hope he is medically cleared since mania is 27 days away
Should be a decent episode!
Hope so *fingers crossed*
Let’s go!
Let’s Go!
Jericho!
Huge pop for Y2J
So its Y2J vs KO for the US Title at mania
i honestly contemplated not coming only cause don’t wanna bring you guys down if Raw is terrible but might aswell be with some people who I can at least try chatting with if Raw sucks lol
I did too, but I’m going to Smackdown tomorrow, so I won’t be here.
Nice hope you have fun since you will be in for a treat wyatt as champ plus his entrance and Randy vs Styles
I’m not a Wyatt fan. I bought the tickets because of Ambrose/Miz and Cena/Styles and I don’t know if I’m going to get either of those matches tomorrow.
Not the cena/styles match cause they doing Orton/Styles
That irks me because I was excited to see that live. Now that Miz is working with Cena, I don’t think I’ll get Ambrose/Miz either.
You will get Cena/Nikki vs Carmellsworth
That doesn’t thrill me. Still, I’ll HOPEFULLY get to see Dean Ambrose kick someone’s butt tomorrow.
Yup me too but on my tv lol
*skates in through the door holding staff and cape* I’M HERE! I’M HERE!!! Don’t start without me!!!!
Lol we would never. *Hands over half of my blue kryptonite* TEAM BLUE BAABBBYYYYY
All the way!!!! ???
Here comes KO
Lol twist it in man
for once we actually get a logical reason for some one turning on some one on Raw no less lol
Or someone turning heel period take Dolph’s recent heel turn for example
ya Dolph’s heel turn have we really gotten a explanation honestly?
Not really but i think its just him being mad that he kept losing all the time and crews got all up in his face so he taking it out on him
it’s a small thing with no Dolph explanation but when Smackdown was as awesome as last Tuesday was should we really care?
Nope he still but on a somewhat decent chairs match with apollo
true so even Smackdown’s worst is just decent
That makes RAW look sad
I’d give Raw a tissue if I actually felt sad for them but I don’t
Lol
That’s why it’s hard for me to get behind Dolph these days. I dunno why he’s mad.
On a scale of one to Trump winning the election, how mad are y’all that Goldberg won? Cause I’m not exactly happy but I’m not that deep in my feelings.
Its like 10 points off of trump winning the election thats how mad I am about that
Hahahahahaha!!!!
Cheer me on man
I feel like this might be a great feud. They’re both great characters.
Lesnar vs Goldberg at wrestlemania does it go over or under 5 minutes
Under so they dont expose Goldberg
The fact that Goldberg’s matches over younger, better opponents don’t last long has already exposed him.
True
Rumors are true HHH is making a new version of Evolution
And KO and Samoa Joe are the first of the new recruits. Whoa.
Yup who fills the final spot and will they go the female route
it’d be great if they threw Charlotte in there but I’m 50-50 on it only because I think Charlotte will turn face eventually but if the idea is to keep Charlotte heel and feud with Dana then put Charlotte in Evolution 2.0
Sami vs KO again ok I’m down
I am always down for them to face off
So now we have two confrimed matches for mania
you think Joe and Zayn are working a rematch at Mania?
Thats a possibility cause if seth is medically cleared than we can still do HHH vs Seth
I hope if Seth is cleared let’s do Joe vs Zayn so that way those 2 get a big Mania match while HHH and Seth can work I think a great story with this knee injury
Woah Joe vs Jerhico tonight
A crusierweight title match on RAW thats a first
Should be a good one
Yup can’t wait love Neville’s push
Wish they’d done the division this way from the start instead of doing it backwards and hamstringing it from the beginning.
Ya thats why it took so long for it to get off the ground
Michael and Graves breaking kayfabe lol oh that’s such a funny intro
I would too
I’d be like excuse me I gotta leave cause I’m worried about dry heaving and bustin my gut laughing lol
How is mania the ultimate thrill ride this year when the card is full of part timers for the RAW matches
Because Goldberg and Lesnar okay??? ????
That’s not an ultimate thrill ride that’s an ultimate trainwreck
??????
So you change the swoosh on the belt but not the graphic
Who ya got?
I mean we would like to hear the commentary too but okay RAW. Also, Neville landed really badly on his neck. Ouch.
Too many commercials
It ruins this awesome match
awesome match despite the commercials so at least this first hour of Raw surprisingly good
here we go let’s start this build to Neville vs A Dub
LET’S GO
just seeing A Dub at WrestleMania will be GLORIOUS
jesus even now that still looks kind of nasty
Lets go Aries vs Neville will burn down the arena at mania
they don’t need no watter let that muthafucka burn, burn muthafucka burn hahahaha I had to do it
Agreed
????? I love this group so much!
I got that partially from the Nelly music video with that song “Hot in Herre” one of my favorite rap songs
I know! That video is nostalgia!
ya hell Ray Lewis lip synced that song on Lip Sync Battle
Lol
We love you back ??
Aries!
Yes! Austin Aries! I love it all!
Cesaro does have pepperoni nipples.????
Okay, even with the sound off, that Cruiserweight segment was AWESOME!
Agreed!
Naomi showing some love for the crusierweights
alright let’s see how this build goes for Brock and Goldberg
Who cares
gotta live with it it is what it is
Truw but doesn’t mean I have to like it
believe me I hear you but still it is what it is and it’ll be over before we know it
Here comes the beast
Here comes the pain
Motha Nature! I walk away for two seconds! What the heck is going on?
Brock F5d Goldberg
Tag titles on the line who ya got
It makes no sense to give them the titles tonight. None. I love Enzo and Cass but not tonight. Just no.
It would make better since to give them the titles at mania
there you go Triple Threat for the titles at Mania
I’m down
surprised no celebrity inductee yet but I think were going to get one very soon probably the last inductee announced
Who would it be
I think it would be Ali
Rumor is that it’ll probably be Shaq or Lemmy.
Hope it’s Lemmy
There should be a separate entry for Rude’s mullets.
Lol
well Steph’s cleavage game is back
Full force
Steph and Nikki loveeeeeee there cleavage hahaha
True dat
Heel turn for Sasha right now?
might aswell I mean what the hell at this point right?
Or will we ses a fatal four way
well there you go right now Charlotte’s out there and we need Nia do the 4-Way and turn Sasha heel the night after Mania
Here comes the true queen Steph
Sasha vs Bayley next
WWE to the fans “We know you wanted it at Mania so we’ll just throw it away for free on Raw”
Either way it would have been for free. But what I’m straching my head about is where was Nia at during that segment and why was Dana out there
Raw again making no sense what else is new hahaha
Lol true
CM Punk chants are rude but did we really expect anything different? SMH.
best of my knowledge that’s the first time I think Sasha has defeated Bayley
I THINK she beat her in NXT but don’t quote me.
she might have but I don’t recall it I think Bayley’s always beat Sasha but again that’s a big THINK
I think at the two takeovers they wrestled each on Bayley won but i think Sasha won on TV but I’m not too sure
I hope either Bayley retains or Sasha wins and Charlotte stays out of the title picture for awhile after Mania.
Well. We have a triple threat. Interesting turn of events.
Where is Nia
Excellent question. They can’t discard her just like that.
Ya cause than what was the point of the Sasha/Nia feud
either she’s popping up next week or something more is going on
She’ll probably have a match, but she’s not really ready for a title shot right now.
Yeah but against who? Dana Brooke? How would that work? Unless Tamika Snuka comes back and they get paired…….
Maybe a cross promotion with Tamina.
Wait. Tamina is #TeamBlue? I’m really not sure cause I can’t remember.
Ya she is she has been working Smackdown live events recently since she just came back from injury
Cross-promotion. Nia from RAW vs Tamina from SmackDown. They used to do them back in the first brand split.
OK. Thanks. Could not remember if we had drafted Tamina or not.
She wasn’t eligible for the draft, but she’s supposed to be coming to SmackDown.
Thank you.
No problem and no she wasn’t drafted
Thanks guys!
No problem
Against who
gotta admit love seeing Charly Cauraso gorgeous woman I mean being a backstage interviewer apparently for the women can be as good as anything cause we get to crush all over them
I know Charley Renee Jojo and Dasha
yea hell even Lillian if I remember was one for a long time before becoming Raw’s ring announcer
ol grey beard Triple H
He’s getting old. Wow.
Is it irrational for me to be legitimately worried for Seth’s long term physical well being? I dunno about this knee.
No I’m worried about how his knee will hold up from now on after this recent injury
Yeah. I’m really concerned for him. It’s through ignoring injuries that we lost a lot of good wrestlers to retirement. So I’m mad concerned for him.
Ya and we lost good wrestlers too like edge and Christian Daniel byran just to name a few
Exactly. He needs to take it easy.
Both times were accidents. A torn MCL isn’t all that bad. If he’d blown the knee apart again, he’d probably be done.
I know but at the same time looking at the footage, at how hard he’s working that knee, is making me worry. It’s probably nothing but that’s just me.
Here we go again
Thoughts on Emma since the draft
………
Fair enough
can’t really give any cause of her injury
Taker is here
Guys! I can not. I can’t right now!!!!
Right there with ya
Dear LORD, don’t make this Taker/Braun! Please, make it Taker/Roman.
I know right dont make his last match a bad one
It’s gonna be Taker/Braun
Braun is not the person for that spot. WWE’s set it up with Reigns. Let Strowman win the battle royal.
Wait. I take that back. Or do I?
I mean, tonight’s show was still garbage but hey…. It’s the Undertaker!
Looks like its gonna be taker/roman
Rock/Cena 2 all over again it feels like
Difference? This will only happen once and they’re not dragging it out for a year.
Yes. I was wrong. I take back my previous comment.
Yeah but how does this rivalry make sense?
Royal Rumble. Reigns eliminates Taker and tells him that it’s his(Reigns’) yard now. Taker’s been the Big Dog for over twenty years, he’s not going to stand for that kind of disrespect.
No he doesn’t. He does not suck.
And there’s the foundation for this match
Is that how the rivalry starts? *sigh*
They really need to watch SD. SMH.
Thank you, God! RAW finally putting up some matches worth watching at Mania!
Y’all I’m out. See y’all tomorrow God willing for the real wrestling show. The A show. SmackDown Live. Bye!
Bye
