Cena vs Reigns will be confirmed tonight. Your thoughts?
I want the match, but it needs more build and a bigger stage.
But with Cena’s schedule and the fact he is about to film a movie soon I understand the reason for doing it now
Then don’t do the match at all. If Cena isn’t willing to commit the time to build the match, don’t do it at all.
Shawn and Taker had there first ever match on a B level PPV so why not with Cena and Reigns
They had more build than this and a reason.
and yet it was still a B level PPV
But there was a reason for it. What are Cena and Reigns fighting over? An accidental punch in a tag match? Shawn accidentally cost Taker the WWE Championship and refused to apologize.
They had a little Twitter battle idk what it was about
That’s not a big enough reason for this match. This is a dream match, give me a better reason than that or don’t do the match.
Regins is still penciled in to face Brock at mania for the universal title
They can still build it to a bigger stage than No Mercy. They could build it to Survivor Series or Royal Rumble, not rush it.
A B Level PPV is a B level PPV at the end of the day i remember that stuff well though simpler times back then
HBK vs Taker wasn’t the Dream match it became a decade later. Cena/Reigns is a dream match and WWE owes it to the fans to give them a better build than a half assed rush into a B PPV so Cena can go be a movie star. I’d rather never have the match than a rushed build.
The build started last week and they are still a whole month out from the ppv that’s not rushed to me. Rush would be only having two weeks of build
While this should be saved for mania i understand why they would do it now at No Mercy. 4 weeks left until the ppv hope the build is good
what a weekend with all of the May-Mac stuff
That was a great fight and respect to connor for lasting 10 rounds
he’s a one of a kind athlete I know I heap his praises a lot so maybe I’m not exactly un biased but he deserves all the credit in the world for lasting 10 rounds and for even winning some rounds against Floyd
Did you see that moron enzo spent ten thousand dollars for his ticket
Enzo needs to stop calling out Conor lol Conor though i know his performance may not of been the most beautiful but it was a inspiring performance
The only thing saving him from not being released is his promo skills and merchandise sales
Who do y’all got winning the battle royal tonight?
Jordan or Balor I’d prefer Balor honestly
Looks like sexy star career came to end smooth move dum Ass
I was shocked when i heard that news of what happened with her and Rosemary
She is going to have a hard time finding a job
That’s the kind of news I hear and think man either Sexy Star is unprofessional which is possible or there was serious heat between her and Rosemary that led to that
Even if there was legit heat, that’s no excuse for deliberately hurting Rosemary. If you can’t be professional in the ring, you don’t belong in the business.
True keep that and handle that backstage
I hope Sexy Star never works in wrestling again after this and I never wish that on someone.
They need to strip her of her title or titles and kick her out of the business
It wasn’t even between her and Rosemary she was caught in the crossfire. I think she had beef with another wrestler in that fatal four way
Wrestlecade just announced that her appearance at this weekend show has been pulled
Good I wouldn’t hire her after doing something like that totally unacceptable Shawn Michael’s and Bret Hart had major issues with one another but when they got in ring together always professional
I can’t say I’m sorry. What she did was inexcusable.
Let’s Go!
Here we go
Miz kicks us off
Really Kurt??
Find someone to take that title off of Miz. It’s become worse than insignificant.
Battle Royal tonight
Next!
Wait is that Big Show!?!?!?
Lord god, Show looks like a thumb!
Hardys went from tag match to battle royal.
Nooooo the beard is gone
Would love to see Miz vs a Hardy for the title
Huh, lot of biggish names here? Any chance our tag champs appear?
Don’t think so
My goodness…. Olympians, Hardys, Big Shows and Balors OH MY
To get Balor back on track: step 1 win the battle royal step two win the IC title
I watched the first episode of the Mae young classic have watched the other ones yet
For those who have seen the Mae Young Classic already what are your thoughts. Note: only watched the first three episodes
I’ve been so distracted with my work experience lately I forgot about it honestly
Yuou should really watch it so many good matches
Really enjoyed it
This has to be the thinnest battle Royal I’ve ever seen .
Did they add lyrics to Jordan’s theme?
Yup looks like it I guess Vince didn’t like his theme either
EWWW Big Show looks gross without his bread
ya he looks…ya i’ll just say looks
It’s so weird
Kudos WWE I see what you did there
I wished still that Gallows and Anderson had moved to SD and reformed the Styles Club with AJ
So it looks like Goldust plans on debuting a sidekick has been nixed
Everyone’s forgotten about Crews so does that mean he’s gonna win the battle royal
Nope
Lol
By the way this is how you open a Raw. We are going to get thirty really good minutes of Raw here and it involves a title and can be used to setup multiple storylines if they choose. They are pulling out all the stops pre Monday Night Football.
Elias vs. Jordan. Balor Club vs. Miztourage. Hardys are awoken. That’s what I would like to see.
Bray’s not don’t with Finn
JEFF HARDY WINS
YES!
Jeff!
GREAT for Jeff him vs Miz will be fun
What I wrote in my RawViews while the Hardys were doing their entrance..
“Next
out are the hardy boys and what I would pay for a good Jeff Hardy and Miz feud
oh my”
I also said that Miz vs a Hardy would be good too
It’ll likely be a one off but a feud with those two would give some a cool dynamic. People love to boo Miz, love to cheer Jeff Hardy and styles would mesh well.
Agreed and maybe it’ll catch fire like Joe and Brock and Strowman and Brock
So Enzo Amore and his cruiserweight debut is up next, does it do anything for you?
Nope
Chances he talks about “dropping a deuce” to make weight.”
And how he spent 10 grand to see the mayweather McGregor fight last week
Or even better….. I made weight by dropping 10k to watch Mayweather do what I could’ve done for less.
is it bad that i would pay 10 grand to see McGregor KO Enzo?
Yes
lol okay i wouldn’t pay 10 grand…$60 bucks sounds better
More like 0 dimes
I see what you did there.
oh we going to war lol it was a great event from everything i heard
all it does for me is hearing a rat piss on cotton
Is it bad that I immediately thought about how that would sound?
i can only imagine it’s bad lol
I’m hopeful for him, but other than that, I’m not that invested.
The latest bring it to the table episode explains why Enzo has MAJOR heat backstage
Taking shots at Cass
So is Enzo a comedy act now?
He has always been a comedy act nothing has change
Ahhhh makes sense. Why when he was with Cass I was ok with it and now I just find it annoying?
Which is why WWE should have never split them up they are the one team that should never had broken up cause Enzo is nothing without Cass
I feel sorry for Dar.
Deserves so much better
He does. Heck of a talent, even if he annoys me and I hate the way he used to say ‘Alicia Fox’.
He’ll get his chance at the crown soon
42 days until I finally get to see Monday Night RAW live!!!
Have fun
You are going to have a blast!!
I fully plan on it!! I’m so excited!
WWE Flexing its social media dominance and you know what that spot is sponsored by Burger King…. #ThatAdvertisingMoney
Here comes the pain
More like the boredom.
Bathroom break??
Ah! The Tag Champs!
I was just thinking about how happy you would be when I heard “BURN IT DOWN”
It’s singles action, but the tag champs are in the house!
Seth in singles action!
Add Seth Rollins vs. Cesaro to another network special main event quality match tonight.
Last week’s US Title match is why Talking Smack should never have been cancelled.
A Reigns callback during the entrances of AmbRollins
Are we having a malfunction? Why are they suddenly airing a Cena thing?
Hello? Can we get back to the Tag champs?
Right so rude they are just waiting in the ring watching this
Yeah. This can wait until after the match, very rude to the champs.
I have a feeling Roman Reigns won’t be the only Samoan at the contract signing.
So when does Sheamus leave for his movie
Probably after the No Mercy rematch.
Yeah, we got a brawl in the making.
Its possibly that Cesaro is the most athletically gifted superstar in the WWE.
He is incredible
I know he’s super strong but he shouldn’t be so agile with his speed. Everything looks effortless unfortunately he lacks a bit of charisma and natural star power.
Yes the announcers say it like every week
Ambrose is not a good spectator.
Cesaro stole that one.
Add Sheamus vs. Ambrose to a network special main event quality match.
So Dean has to win now.
Of course
These two matches have been REALLY good.
Emma is the Bray Wyatt of the women’s division. Except instead of lights going out and creepy noises, Emmas feuds start with her looking at her cell phone.
Lol but true
Is it a requirement now that all backstage promos start with someone looks at their cell phone? Emma, Daniel Bryan and Kurt Angle all say yes.
Burger King got some extra advertising money apparently. First the social media dominance segment and now this Angle spot.
It helps that Lawler is there since people used to chant ‘Burger King’ at him.
So, does Emma finally win one?
EMMA HAS A NEW THEME
So we have a stipulation match now…. We have ourselves a Hashtag Match Playa holla holla holla
What was the stip? Emma had to steal it from Mickie.
Mickie now has to tweet a hashtag of Emma’s choosing if I heard everything correctly.
FINALLY
Is it me or does Cena have a condescending tone to his promo tonight? I’m asking to check my perspective..
No, Cena usually takes a condescending tone in these kinds of promos.
Ha! touche
Roman, just shut him up.
Think Cena is projecting. O.M.G We have gone there!
The one match Cena never got to have.
Cena went there and that’s check mate ladies and gents. Goodnight
Hi guys! Been a while! But after that bomb, I need to be here. WHAT WAS THAT? Cena made Reigns look small.
That’s the Cena that feels challenged and absolutely destroyed Reigns. Problem is Reigns didn’t step up to the plate like Styles and Miz did last year or Punk in years prior. Reigns stumbled and staggered he found his footing and delivered with passion in second half.
True! All the defenses came out at once!
Roman is never going to be a great promo guy, it’s just not his strong point, but he almost doesn’t need to be. He puts on great matches, he gets a reaction.
This crowd has been lame for a Monday Night Network Special episode of Raw
Elias stole Emma’s shades.
Who wants to walk with Elias?
If he could actually play that guitar with any skill, maybe.
You tell him, King!
Oh no, King’s not going to wrestle?
SOUTH PAW CROSSOVER!
Who the living hell?
Pelvis Wesley!!!
He could’ve at least dyed his beard to match his hair.
Lord god help us all! Least Slater could do is dye his facial hair. Elias is like ‘WTF?’
Okay, Elias, El Kabong him.
ONLY time I’ll say this, Thank you, Elias.
Women’s Title match is the main evemt tonight let’s go
Is there anything else announced for tonight or are the ladies Main Eventing?
Looks like the ladies will main event
Absolutely the right call.
Think it’s the ladies.
Thanks
Can’t wait to watch episode 4 of the Mae Young Classic after RAW
Renee!!!!
Who ya got?
NEW CHAMP
BS! Sasha deserves better than that!
She will always be known for never being able to defend a title
Which is a disservice to her talent. She’s the best on the RAW roster and gets screwed every time!
The hell?! They did it to Sasha again!
THANK YOU NIA
Sasha Banks is the best talent on the RAW women’s roster, yet WWE screws her over EVERY. TIME!
