Hope yall had a great new years eve and holidays
well mine was recovering from the Rousey loss lol but one of the things that kind of brightened my mood recently was hearing what Dana White told Ronda after the loss
Happy New Year
Thanks for joining us!~
you’re welcome
Happy New Year I’m recovered from the loss Ronda suffered and have done some reflecting but let’s see how Raw does I hope Raw does good tonight but I got my reservations as always
hi
excited for that Strowman/Zayn LMS match the only reason besides Goldberg I’m watching Raw is for that cause I’ve actually come around to Strowman oddly enough
Any predictions?
Zayn vs Strowman is awesome and maybe Goldberg spears and jackhammers a jobber who interrupts him
Boring just like last week even with Goldberg there but a great last man standing match between Zayn and Strowman
Hey everyone! Happy New Year! All of God’s blessings for the New Year and may Cena have a full heel tur——I mean, Go #TeamBlue!!! ????
Lol ya that’s never gonna happen
Don’t be so sure. We’re the land of opportunity. Anything can happen in our world.
That is true
I hope that this year’s RAW is ok or good or great.
I hope so too.
Here we go!
So, RAW is back in Tampa. Any chance we see an NXT person on the show?
RAW is not the laND of opportunity
Let’s Go!
hope for the best here we go
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Tonight is gonna be a good show!
Yay Goldberg returns and a boring last man standing match.
I kind of feel like Strowman should of won at Roadblock and Zayn asks for the Last Man Standing match but whatever it should be great regardless
Look at Mick.
Why does Mick’s music sound like Goldberg’s? Love Mick’s hair cut and he got the Just For Men facial hair color right.
He’s actually showing his ears!
Thoughts on Mick’s new look
I like.
Happy he figured out which Just For Men facial hair color matched his own.
I like it. Makes him look more neat
He look ugly
Mick can’t stop botching lol
Mick’s hair! Mick’s face! Mick’s hair and his face!!!!!!
A sexy pinata!????!!! ?????
The Cage of Jericho Lockdown me in Maaannn ??????
Oh man! This is going to be solid!
Kevin Owens and Goldberg in the same ring? okay I’m hooked lol
Someone is getting speared tonight
Alright for years I have been hearing that there is always a bidding war for wrestlemania I am calling bull shit on that this year it’s in Orlando couple years ago they had to almost bag Jerry Jones to have in Dallas know there going back in that terrible stadium in New Orleans it should be called the shit dome
Roman vs Chris for the title AGAIN
Like I said awhile ago, #FireMickFoley
Please GOD fire him Stephanie
he’s always botching
exactly. That’s why SmackDown is more better.
i disagree with you there
ok.
wait what did Stephanie McMahon just acknowledge Raw lost in the ratings…okay now Steph berate Mick lol sell this competition
Totally ignoring the fact that SHE was in charge last week when RAW lost in the ratings.
True I forgot about that she gave Mick the week off for the holidays so why is she blaming Mick
she’s been in charge before that
She’s griping at Mick for RAW losing in ratings last week. He wasn’t in charge, SHE was, so it’s her fault, not Mick’s.
not really
This is true. So the problem isn’t Mick. ☕☕☕
#TeamBlue!!!! #TeamBlue!!!! #TeamBlue!!!!! The winning team all day erryday!!!
TEAMBLUEBAAAAABBBBBYYYYY
They didn’t believe us but here we are!!!!
They know we here now after beating them last week
I’m still holding out hope for RAW.
awwww Steph I wanted you to give more Mick of a ass chewing like I’d give you…okay that came out very wrong lol
??? don’t talk about bae like that
sorry must of been the boredom that Raw induces or thoughts ran back to that time in 2003 on SD when Steph was bent over the desk but i’ll likely go with option A
Yay Seth!!!
Big pop for Seth
Seth Freakin’ Rollins!
I’m disappointed too Corey
Top 10 wrestlers 2016 for me were 10.The miz 9.the new day .8 Alexa bliss 7. Big Cass and enzo 6. Chris Jericho 5. Sasha banks 4. Seth Rollins 3. Charlotte 2. Kevin Owens 1. AJ styles
Yup. This list is legit. I agree!
Cass and Enzo above Miz and the New Day?
I would move Miz pass big Cass and enzo but not New day
interesting
I felt like new day is getting boring
i feel you on that one
If WM34 is actually in New Orleans, any of y’all planning on going?
Terrible place to have WM 34
why? WM30 was there and it was very good
It was just there your telling me you could not find different city to have in and stadium is awful
either way, people are still gonna go
I think WM could be in a dirt pit and people would still go.
I think they should have went to better city and stadium
this year will be the 3rd year in a row Summerslam is in Brooklyn, do you disagree with that?
Yesssssssss hate when they had it in L.A. every year
I’m frustrated. There are other cities capable of hosting WrestleMania and large PPVs.
Yes agree
I just love how everyone is so upset that WM34 is REPORTEDLY going to be in New Orleans but never said anything about Summerslam always being in L.A. or now this year being the third year for Summerslam and NXT TakeOver being in Brooklyn
yep!
I hate that to
Why
I don’t like that it’s in the same city every year
Kevin missed the target at full speed!!! Ouch!
Seth said a naughty word
What did he say didn’t hear it
f word O_O
Really??? He dropped an F bomb and I missed it?????
i’m almost positive. they muted it so you couldn’t hear it. but that’s what it looked like he said
Oh OK.
That’s it he is going to time out
happy to hear Cesaro got a new shirt now all we need is that main event push for Cesaro
I think 2018 will he the year for that world title push after his tag title run
Would like to see Sheamus in the world title picture again at some point
I dont
why? he’s a great heel and had a great run as world champ
His previous run was boring but i wasnt wacthing when he had his first couple of runs
his first few runs were great
I liked his feud with Daniel Bryan over the big gold belt leading into WM29
wwe is handled gallows and Anderson so badly
2017 will be there year hopefully or maybe 2018
Now that the need to keep the titles on New Day is over, I think Gallows and Anderson will get better booking.
Sheamus’ accomplishments are very nice. MITB winner, King of the Ring winner, Royal Rumble winner, world champ multiple times, US champ, and now tag team champ
All he needs is the ICTitle to complete his career
very true!
Weirder tag team sheamus and Cesaro or Orton and Wyatt
I wouldnt say werid i would new fresh i enjoy both teams
It’s strange to me it’s seems odd
If by weird you mean stranger combination, Sheamus and Cesaro but not by much. They are just the one you didn’t see coming.
Anderson/Gallows vs Sheamus and Ceasro for the tag titles at the rumble??
We’re literally 3 months away from WM… April 2
Loving this feud between zayn and Strowman
I love that Braun is getting a push as well as this feud
better then I thought it would be
Same ar first i didnt think anything of it but Strowman proved me wrong and sami is really playing up this underdog from the underground character
I still think zayn would do better on smackdown
Lol people booing the Bucs
They booing their own team??
hahaha so sad
Do we seriously have to watch this again?
JOJO???
I tried to trade you last week lol
I’m surprised you have not tried to do that too me yet lol
hahahaha key word is yet
oh you like me you know it
I know but ill just keep looking at her from a far
Sami got himself a shiner
*dances happily*
BRRRRRRAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNN
Strowman’s back O_O
YASSSSS going backstage
Now this is a real last man standing match just like the one between edge and kane back in the day in SmackDown
Sami is DEAD
great match perhaps setting up Zayn and Strowman in the final 2 at the Rumble
and then Sami vs KO at WM for the title?
or Sami vs Reigns
oh yeah i forgot about Roman possibly winning the title
That was excellent match
Stroman went body bowling with Sami’s stretcher. Dang.
That match just exceed a lot of peoples expectations
Will Jerhico win the title tonight??
I freaking love Jack Gallagher
That gentleman’s duel was life
I love this background music lol
Whaaaaaaaaaat?! They discuss Hogan?!
Looks like they will be discuss any and everything
right! including why Bret Hart is always mad lol
New Day in the rumble baaaabbbbbbyyyyyy
EEEEEWWWWWWWW Titus
I’m officially scarred after hearing that
Im shaking in a corner right now
Oh, Titus, don’t do that.
I actually kinda like this idea lol
Thoughts on Titus apart of New Day
I wouldn’t mind it
That was actually a funny segment
Had low expectations goning in but they actually have good chemistry i was rollin
We need to see Xavier wrestle a lot more
I have to admit that WWE is doing a better job at streamlining RAW this week and having more matches. Doesn’t feel like they’re wasting so much time.
Don’t worry guys, Sasha will save the day!
Finally we have #1contenders matches again
They need more CW matches throughout RAW. The less we hear Byron, the better
Leave Byron alone! He’s a sweetheart. ???
never -_-
Awwww.
So, KO and Goldberg is the main event?
It looks that way
Back to the drawing board, Best Friends and Stephanie.
Question of the day: Is RAW gonna beat SD this week? Has the show done better than last week?
The show has done better than ladt week but we just have to wait for the A show to air tomorrow but i have faith that the A shiw will prevail again this week
Yup yup.
It’s been better. More matches, more streamlined, but they still need to work on using more of the roster. Think SD can still beat them tomorrow.
there’s like 35 minutes left… how much can you possibly do in that short amount of time?
I could care less about her debut
That’s the problem with them pushing it back every week, it breeds apathy. No one’s going to care when she does finally debut.
just like Curt Hawkins
And Eva Marie.
OH MY GOODNESS EMMA WILL NEVER DEBUT
I think Zack’s injury might of pushed back her debut a bit
They’d pushed it back at least twice before Ryder got injured.
i know but i think it got pushed back even longer due to that
Bayley will win due to Sasha’s interference
duhhhhhh lol
Come on wwe that was so predictable
Bayley’s hella strong to pull that on Nia.
every time she’s beaten Nia, it’s been with that exact same move, the exact same way.
She made Nia tap out in NXT, wish they’d let her do that more often.
yeah i would like that better
Loving the Kevin Owens Show set
Tampa Bay just made the list
Jericho is in the rumble
GOLDBERG
Jericho is technically the 6th entrant in the rumble
UH OH
EVERYBODY RUN
Goldberg vs Roman i could dig it
Hope they didn’t forget SD Live is in the Rumble too lol
