Cage match will be fun lol
I predict a cage wall will break
It almost has to lol
Right cause the last time they faced off the ring exploded
Any predictions?
Miz wins via DQ Cena beats Jordan
hey yo Labor Day RAW coming up soon and it’s also the 20th anniversary of the NWO parody on the 4 Horsemen
Let’s Go!!
Here we go!
A rehash of the Cena/Reigns thing.
Not a fan?
Cena’s promos are usually the same thing he’s been saying for years, so I didn’t listen.
Last weeks was great lol
I don’t remember him saying heel turn in the past or promo. Got a kick out of it
Cena was spitting flames
it’s still bizzare to think Cena was the opener at SummerSlam when he brought that up it’s one of those things that makes you think you’re in some sort of bizzaro world
My girl JoJo looking good as always
I’m sure Bray says the same thing with less clothes on
CHHHHIIIIIILLLLLLLL
mic drop moment lol
First time ever match right now: Jordan vs Cena who ya got
Cena lol
Cena wins and I do like what they did there with the whole throwback to Cena/Angle in 2002
Bravo RAW for going straight into the first match of the night instead of a 20 minute promo segment
Unsure about this match. Jordan’s skills aren’t the problem, it’s his lack of charisma or personality.
Yeah he is missing something
He’s just…not interesting.
awesome match I think this is something Jason needed
Well, it wasn’t a burial, but I’m not sure what this was supposed to accomplish.
Hi all! Long time no talk. What’s going on?
Hi!
Howdy
Hello!
not a lot but Raw just started with a great Jordan/Cena match so maybe this will be a good holiday episode of Raw…maybe
I caught the tail end of the match and wondered what the hell was going on. Hahaha!
The crowd was fired up for Cena lol
first time in god knows how long I’ve heard full fledged Cena chants
Roman practiced that comeback all week. He went to the Rock, the Usos, the New Day and asked for tips. Hahahaha!
He had to cause his promo sounds so rehearsed
Yeah. I looked at it last week and it was really bad. He had no room to move.
Just like this week
It was only slightly better. Only slightly.
He did okay this week. His comeback to Cena pointing out that his fly was open was hilarious.
I did think that one was clever.
The Hounds are here and it looks like they’re doing commentary tonight!
I didn’t get to say this before so Imma say it now. I love RAW’s new Tag Team Champions!!!
Isn’t it awesome?!
Okay, we got The Bar Vs Animal House and a tag championship rematch for No Mercy!!
The right call. Good chemistry
Rhyno gored Jericho though the TitanTron, yet gets beat by a kick to the face.
I know right? Makes no doggone sense!
So The Hounds retain at No Mercy, Sheamus does his movie, who do Rollins/Ambrose feud with after this?
Gallows/Anderson
I was hoping for the Hardys. Their match the RAW after SummerSlam was amazing.
But I think Jeff is getting a singles push right now
Really not sure. RAW needs more teams IMO
They could feud with Animal House, while Hardys/Club finish up.
Both franchises do, in fact. The divisions are becoming boring cycles.
How do you see the finish for the IC Title match tonight
Miztourage interupts
Leading to the rematch at No Mercy
Will Maryse EVER get back in the ring and ACTUALLY wrestle a match or will she be Miz’s valet for the rest of his career
I’d hope she does actually but if WWE doesn’t want to have her wrestle and Maryse is content with it then that’s just how it seems like it will be for the future
Apparently, she was asked and said that she can’t keep up with the girls now, so she’s sticking to being a valet.
HHH did build this thing in Orlando called the prefromance center
TBH, Maryse was pretty good in the Divas era, but she’d get eaten alive in the Women’s Revolution and I think she realizes it and is sticking to being a valet.
We saw that first hand at Wrestlemania this year
Yeah, I think she knows her limits and is sticking with valet.
Hey Bo, I don’t know how you got a hold of my mother’s ‘Special Occasions’ jacket, but she’d like it back now.
???
My mother has a jacket that she only wears for special occasions that looks exactly like that, I swear!
I guess Bo heard you cause he took it off
Miz just beat Jeff CLEAN
A little messy. Maryse helped him out a bit lol
Miz had help, as always.
For the first part but in the second half he handled his own
So that wasn’t Maryse helping? Must’ve been my eyes.
She squeezed his hand
Still mad about Sasha get screwed over again by WWE.
I don’t think WWE has faith in her as champion
They don’t give her a chance to be champion, which makes it worse.
Max out limit is like two weeks
She loses EVERY rematch as champion. WWE would do better to give her an actual title reign than how they’re treating her now.
Even Sasha believes that the company doesn’t have any faith in her
And then people wonder why there’s speculation that she’s leaving when her contract expires, I don’t blame her TBH.
I rather see her go back to NXT
NXT is a demotion, Vince needs to have the faith in her that Hunter did and give her an actual title reign.
Which is why HHH and Stephanie need to do a coup and take the company from Vince
Does Emma want to die again
Yes. Yes she does. It’s part of her delusion.
Is there an actual reason for Show and Strowman to have a cage match?
Nope but big Cass is injured so why not put show in some kind of match right and Brock is gone till like next week
Steel Cage match is supposed to mean something, not just ‘We have nothing better to do with these guys’.
Right cause the last cage match we got the RAW tag titles were on the line
True or the IC title was on the line. Steel Cage is supposed to be a blow off and they aren’t blowing off anything but the last few minutes of the show.
WWE is just filling time and trying to boost ratings at this point which is why they are having a lot of title changes
Title changes is more in line with the Attitude and Ruthless Aggression Eras, but gimmick matches for no reason but to kill time are another matter.
Can we get to the match already
I was just about to ask of anyone else was wishing for this to be over. Glad to know I wasn’t alone.
Enzo talks way too much for my liking sometimes and cracks the same old jokes
Agreed.
Okay, WWE is clearly not expecting a lot of viewers this week because this is a mess.
Show was going well lol
I bet Corey is happy that he is no longer calling 205 Live now that Enzo has joined the division
Except that now he has to pull double duty instead of WWE bringing someone else in.
I was wondering how he was gonna cope with that. Yes, Cole did it for years but that doesn’t make it any less difficult.
He was already at the SmackDown tapings for 205 Live
But he wasn’t having to cover both PPVs, 205 was on RAW PPVs and 205 is only an hour. He’s going to be doing commentary for five hours a week, plus brand PPVs, and covering both shows at joint PPVs.
Corey’s got it worse, two shows, PPVs AND covering both shows on the joint PPVs, that sounds horrible just on paper.
Alexa must have forgot who she was talking to…..!!!
Right
If you haven’t watched the Mae Young Classic yet what are you waiting for
Bray Wyatt always be coming out with a depressing story in these vignettes. Haha!
I think that’s part of the gimmick.
He is the eater of worlds
Are we getting the rematch now?
Yup at No Mercy
So what’s going on right now?
Sorry I stepped away for a few are we talking about finn/Wyatt or the women
Women.
The rematch has been announced but if Nia/Emma win this tag match then it’s a fatal four way since both Emma and Nia went to Kurt asking for a title shot
Oh, okay.
Legit Boss looks legit pissed.
I hate Emma’s new theme so much
Its new
And I don’t like it I like the original evil Emma theme better
I mean this one is differen than last weeks
But me too her old one is the best
Did Emma change her theme again?
Yep lol
It’s better that the “Who’s That Girl?” thing but it’s still not my cup of tea.
Props to Bliss it’s only been a little over a year since her main roster debut and she is already a 4 time champion
The girl is a beast!
To say she never won the NXT Women’s Title and never been on a TakeOver and have this much success im her first year and a half on the main roster your right she is a beast
And to think she started off as this sparkly, cheerleader-esque, fairy princess kind of character (which I do miss a bit). She has worked hard and come a long way. Props to her indeed.
That was smart by Emma
A Fatal Four Way. Interesting.
It’s Nia’s time and I’m happy Emma is in the title picture
So Sasha got screwed out of her title and now she’s getting screwed out of her rematch too.
She didn’t get screwed she lost clean but she just fell victim to bad booking
She never gets a fair shot with the title, now she’s not getting a rematch. I call that getting screwed.
That’s just terrible booking and now the fatal four way I guess is to set up Nia vs Bliss for the title and to give Emma a chance and possible feud with Sasha
But Sasha is still owed a 1-1 rematch, Triple Threats and Fatal Four Ways don’t count. They could have Emma vs Nia #1 Contender’s match and let Alexa and Sasha have their 1-1 at No Mercy.
This is the company not having faith in her as champion
Vince won’t give her a chance. She’s the only one of the Four Horsewomen not have a title reign last past the rematch.
Dude, don’t mess with Renee, she’s got a lunatic for a husband.
OOH! I like this match up!
What in the world? Guys, you’re getting your rematch, get out of the ring.
It’s Sheamus and Cesaro. Of course they’re gonna stir the pot.
Steel cage match now???
Got to give Show and Strowman time to get to the ring.
Lol
TBF, they’re probably going to cram another five minutes of commercials somewhere in that too, so the match will only be 10mins tops.
I’m going to keep my hopes up about Enzo and 205 Live, but that win looked so bad.
Big show scares me without his bread
Show looks weird completely bald and beardless.
I’m surprised they didn’t break the cage
