Thanks for coming!!!! Enjoy chatting with you every week!
Thanks for inviting me!
Del rio vs Kalisto, Dana vs Becky announced
Think they do a Becky vs Dana at extreme rules
Welcome everyone!!!! RAW starts NOW
RAW STARTS NOW LET’S GO
thanks for coming!
Ur welcome
I hope the pics I’m seeing aren’t all we’re going to get out of Ambrose/Jericho. I want an ACTUAL match at Extreme Rules!
Cage match?
Cage match on RAW, which probably means no match Sunday if I know how WWE works.
AJ Starts us off!
THEY DONT WANT NONE
AJ Styles kicks off RAW! Though I wish his theme song was better!
WHAT his theme song is ???
Waiting for our tweets to show up on RAW lol
Here comes Reigns!
Here comes the Roman Empire
Of course, #WWE drowns out the boos for cheers! No surprise there!
WOW did anyone see that we want big show sign??
???Rollins chants!!!
SAVAGE Roman just shut down the crowds chant for Rollins
AJ killing this promo!!!
Loving the We Want Rollins chants
Me too am just waiting to market for his return
They shouldnt chant Rollins until he comes back. I know we’re all anxious but its not time now.
Rollins should get a great reaction when he comes back
The “Bullet” Club! Still angry that #WWE had the nerve to cut out Bullet! So that Finn Balor can show up!
Thoughts on the opening segment?
Thought they both did good on their promos
It was great they both cut good promos and great build for Sunday and the tag match tonight
They wanted to but couldn’t get the rights from Japan
How many wanna bet that Women’s title contract signing is gonna end up like every other contract signing? A brawl!
What is a contract signing without one
Apparently it looks like both Miz and Owens will be on commentary for Ceasro vs Zayn it’s TakeOver all over again with Ceasro vs Zayn
It was great. AJ killed the promo. Roman best promo I’ve seen from him. Excited for this matchup again.
Miz and Maryse still make me ill. I know they’re married, both seem like legit nice people, but something about the way they interact in character makes me sick.
You and me both! I’ve never liked The Miz and I’ve always despised Maryse for so many years!
They are both super nice and cool in real life, but something about the way they interact in character just…makes me ill.
okay so in my opinion even if Reigns beats AJ I am not going to be entirely angry because if the plan is to do Rollins vs Reigns for SummerSlam then keep the title on Reigns until that point unless something catastrophic happens then I am completely fine I am not a full fledged Roman hater because I actually like Reigns as a performer not character wise but the performer I am fine with I mean he and AJ had a great match at Payback why can’t they have a great one at Extreme Rules?
I love Sami Zayn’s entrance
I still hate Sami’s hat.
Why
I have no idea, I just hate that hat.
Lol
The Miz and Owens on commentary lol this should be a treat
it’s a treat to have Owens on commentary and Maryse being out there and yes Miz is there too
Its gold so far.
Are we all in agreement that the Miz is the worst wrestler out of them 4. . . . . . but has the hottest wife.
No Miz is not the worst he can almost key word almost hang with the rest of them he’s been around for a while and is actually a good wrestler that’s why he’s been around for so long
Out of Cesaro, Sami Zayn, and KO, yes, Miz is the worsy wrestler.
Apparently we have a name now for Kevin Owens frog splash he is now calling it the 6 Star frog splash
The card for extreme rules looks pretty good
This has broken down already it just got started but now here is Shane to make it a tag match just like it was in SmackDown
Here comes the money
Shane rocking those Js
Steph really enjoys being the heel and it’s great for us cause god damn Steph loves showing off that bod of hers jesus
I would do some really freaky things to steph that i would normally be ashamed of.
Am right there with u she is hot
might aswell ask this you would buy a porn film that involved Stephanie being the leading starlet would you?
I would pre-order buddy.
same…Steph’s had the boobs for it since 2003 remember that top she wore on Smackdown I think when she confronted Vince great hot boobs of fire
What a great call by Stephanie KO and Sami Zayn on the same team and if KO leaves the match he will be out of the IC Title match on Sunday great call
Great job Shane & Steph
Cesaro and the Miz vs Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens
Great call by Stephanie
How will Owens and Sami Co-exist!?
Somehow, they wont
HEADLOCK MASTER
Nobody breaks out of his headlocks
Cesaro is gonna come in with the hot tag
Extreme Ruses is this Sunday who do yall see walking out as the IC Champ
Cesaro!
Anyone but The Miz!
That’s wrong to say cause he is really good in the ring and paid his dues but I do agree with u anyone but him
I think Owens is walking out with the IC Title and they are building toward that Owens vs Zayn rematch at SummerSlam and I would like to see Cesaro go after Reigns because they could go with the story that Reigns took Cesaro out because if I remember correctly Cesaro’s last match before the injury was the match with Reigns on Raw before Survivor Series great match btw
Owens making a babyface type hot tag is…strange still awesome though
Skull Crushing finale on his partner!
Ceasro showing Miz how it’s done
Zayn and Owens win!
I would just like to see them keep it on someone for Moore then month the IC title changes hands so often
Well it has been more than a month since Miz has one the title from Ryder the night after WrestleMania
Right but it changes so much we have had so many different IC champions over the last couple years
True and that needs to stop pick one guy and give a 6 month or year long unstoppable regin
Agree
I have not enjoyed a build to a IC Title match in a while but I have really been enjoying this build
FINALLY PRIMO AND EPICO REDEBUT NEXT
Lets see what they got.
Any second now we will see how the crowd reacts to them and if they remember them
The Shining Stars up next!
“The Shining Stars!” um… That’s the Name? Really? O..k!
That’s what am saying that sound dumb as hell am just gonna call them Primo and Epico
Primo and Epico’s 3rd debut up next
You keep counting as their 4th debut is in planned. In case their 3rd debut doesnt go well.
Lol
Whenever AJ is around i am happy.
Get ready for the Colon Travelling Agency.
If this doesn’t work for primo and epico there done
Yup basically or maybe if they still get to stay they go to NXT
idk how well this new gimmick will get over but I wish Epico and Primo the best
Haha I am pulling for these guys
Tumble weeds.
JBL misspoke he meant to say THEIR FINALLY BACK
Is my hearing going or is the crowd dead for the Shining Stars?
Nope the crowd is officially dead
No! I’m going deaf just seeing this! This crowd is just bored to tears to this gimmick for Epico/Primo!
Well lets not forget how bored the crowd was of the new day on their debut. Give them some time. . .maybe, maybe not.
Gotta be a bad sign when you have to win over 2 local jobbers
I flipped over from Raw just to real quick Fox Sports 1 to re-watch Ronda Rousey’s 16 second destruction of Alexis Davis…I still think Holly Holm cost us a Ronda appearance at WrestleMania 32 lol
They should bring carlito as there manager
Love when the WWE uses jobbers lol
The crowd is dead but for the 2 jobbers, its their happiest day in life to be on RAW television. Lpl
This entire crowd is just dead for these two! I mean, literally dead!
This is sad.
I give them props for the nice use of Total Elimination, but the crowd isn’t feeling it. Ooh, Shane and Dean talking.
damn Dean must of had a quickie with Renee to get his jacket back
I’ll be happy when Cena returns…just so I don’t have to hear about it anymore lol
I a big Cena fan. I’ve never seen him wrestle until the end of 2014. I watched attitude era as a young kid but stopped in 2000 or 2001. Didnt start watching again til 2014
Cena’s a great performer but like Reigns I don’t like the character great performer but the character is just yuck too me
I care more about the wrestling than anything else. Characters and promos dont really matter to me.
Here comes Dean!
I know this sounds nuts but why not have a Ambrose Asylum Steel Cage Match between Jericho and Ambrose at Extreme Rules?
Chris Jericho-Comeback Wrestler Of The Year in 2016
“Quiet! quiet, quiet ,quiet!” Y2J being The Miz all of a sudden!
Quiet on the set, i repeat, quiet on the set
What stipulation will be added??
Steel cage
Cage match will be nice
I am going with cage match
Steel Cage Asylum Match…yea I booked this one you’re welcome lol
What is an Asylum match lol
Nun-chucks (sorry, cant spell)
I booked it this was my idea lol so you’re welcome lol
Looks sort of like a House of Fun Match only PG.
Asylum match..courtesy of Dean Ambrose!
Anyone got some crow for me? I owe WWE an apology.
??
I saw some spoilery pics of RAW earlier and jumped to the wrong conclusion.
The Shinig Stars has the best entrance ever for any superstars in years.
– Nobody
For once WWE actually got creative…I am really looking forward to this match
I guess that is creative
push-up bra much Dana?
now I am probably going to start going back and forth between Raw and Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals
Becky Lynch vs Dana!
LOVE Becky’s mocking of Dana, hot and adorable
Am proud of Dana Brooke having her in-ring RAW debut tonight
Dana kinda looks like Nattie, which I hate to say cuz I really love Dana, and don’t want people talking about just that.
Dana gets the win!
Im impressed with Danas main roster appearances. She’s memorable and owns her character. ?
She will be a favorite with the guys because her 2 assets are whats best for business.
WHAT Dana got the win tonight YESS
Dana a good wrestler. I liked it. I never watched NxT so this is my 1st time watching her.
Ric Flair gonna need some serious physical therapy in 15-20 years.
Has nattie ever won the women’s title?
She’s won the Diva’s title once, but I believe not the Women’s title!
Well of course Charolette is the only womens champion.
Sorry ment if she ever had a run with a title
Darren Young needs to wrestle some great matches if he wants to get over. Not these silly promos for kids
RAW has improved dramatically after Mania 32, I’m not Reigns’s biggest fan but since he has been champion the creative envelope has been opened some what
These silly Darren Young promos are so not interesting! Just get in the ring again!
Steph called Shane O Mac the “king of cheap pops” lol
The seeds have been planted in the Shane/Steph drama. They finally got into a small argument
YESS THE GOLDEN TRUTH IS FINALLY TOGETHER AFTER 5 MONTHS
??
#PushTylerBreeze and squash these 2 jabrons.
This song that they are playing is gold. (No pun intended)
I just can’t believe this is happening! Goldust and Booker T reference anyone?
The Golden Truth!
Booker T and Goldust-Comedy Gold R-Truth and Goldust-Drizzling Shits Comedy
Breezango?
Hahahaha.
Tyler Breeze bleeding
Dustin Rhodes is one of the most underrated wrestlers
Hes good in a tag team, wrestling half a match that is under 5 minutes. Not as a solo guy wrestling a 10 minute match.
I think in his prime he was pretty good
Well, that was a lot of nothing.
Filler as Stephanie said she can’t have a hole in her show and whatever gives breeze and Fandango TV time
They couldn’t find something else to put in?
Do you want another Smackdown recap? Or maybe another Darren Young promo? Or a recap of how they dominated social media?
I would’ve settled for a longer match, that was just nothing.
Apollo Crews Social Outcasts another Women’s match Corbin anything
I would’ve taken any of those with a smile.
It makes me happy that Breeze is at least stringing wins together finally I guess he’s taken his plates of shit and WWE might actually start pushing him
Hope so
He called them the Golden Girls
New Day!!!!!
NEW DAY!!!!!! FEEL THE POWER
If there was a real cereal called BOOTY Os would you eat?
I would have to buy it for my 6 yr old son.
YES OF COURSE THAT’S A NO BRAINER
New Day are still red hot!!
Love the New Day lol
Still red hot
Thats the same time machine from the show “Family Matters” that Urkel would use to turn into Stephan.
Why is it sticky that’s good
An adult joke that (young) kids wont understand
Lol this is great
I’m getting a seizure just by looking at this machine!
What da fuck? LMAO!
This segment has me rollin ?????
VaudeVillians getting a lot of heat. They accomplished their job tonight. Good for them.
right through the cardboard time machine oh the humanity
are they closing the show with Charlotte and Natalya? if so that’s great…feels great when the women gets this bigger spotlight now a days
That would be a smart move since they are now pushing the womens division
Well actually, less people watch the end of the 3rd hour. Thats why Bloodline is fighting Bullet Club next. Because more people are actually gonna be watching.
I doubt it. Not sure what the Main is going to be.
What a segment lol
The best segment of the night
AJ Styles & Sasha Banks have the best theme songs
So true I be jamming to them all the time
True, i actually bought both songs on itunes
JBL was right. . the whole mood changes when Roman Reigns music hits
Anderson and Gallows vs the Usos!
I like how the Usos are wearing darker colors tonight.
I hope AJ doesnt do anything to aggravate his injury tonight
Haha. They tried to get a Rollins chant going but to no avail
How is JBL a heel, becomes a baby face every time reigns comes out?
That’s because Vince is in his ear telling him what to say
Well I know that, but im saying he usually a heel, but when Reigns comes out, he praises him. I find it funny is all.
How will this one finish?
Hopefully AJ stays out of it and doesnt do anything that might aggravate his minor injury.
Lets hope not
The Usos pick up the win!
Woah!? You said this before it happened! either my tv is late or you’re a wizard
So this is the big bad Bullet Club that took over Japan?? (IM using sarcasm, so calm down lol)
I was thinking the same thing. They didnt even have much offense in this match
The Usos with the CLEAN WIN
STYLES CLASH TO THE CHAIR!
He hit the Styles Clash of Roman!!! Wow
STYLES CLASH ON THE CHAIR
SUPER MAN PUNCH!!!!
SUPER MAN PUNCH!!!! ??
– Me
You wouldve thought that the entire arena wouldve pop’d for AJ but they really didnt.
Crowd sucks, though the past crowds have started to decline in noise.
Reigns vs AJ has had really solid build up the match could be even better then there Payback match
Looking forward to the podcast next week
Huge fan of the Styles Clash
Im really surprised he did it on Roman.
me too
Its official, this crowd sucks. No huge pop for Cass
Haha. Urkel reference.
You got any cheeeeeeeeese?
I almost forgot about this match
Big Cass wins a quick one!
Very quick.
How hell do you state it before it happens?? My tv is like 4 secs late from when you say it lol
Haha must be a bit ahead of you!
Oh JBL is a Heel again, got me worried after all that Roman praising lol
That was sad that was basically a squash match
Yeah but its still keeping the push going for the tag team when Amore comes back
Yup
Trying to book Cass Strong cuz he’s their future Kevin Nash or something
I am happy that Big Cass is doing well solo but I miss Enzo
Contract signings are always the same. They sign contracts and then rumble.
But not in NXT, no sir. Look at Bálor and Samoa contract signing, it was the best I’ve seen and no confrontation!! NXT! NXT! NXT!
I dont watch NxT. Ive never seen 1 episode to be honest
Yeah hope something happens
okay honestly do you think with Cena coming back in 2 weeks that Rusev is winning the US Title from Kalisto only to drop the title to Cena?
Lets hope so. The weekly open challenges were great.
Lol did anyone else see that slip from Kalisto
Can they already announce that the US Title match is going to be on the pre-show
Is del Rio really dating page they seem like such an odd couple
Is that beautiful bronzed skin lol
At least my Alberto is getting TV time! Hey, better than no TV time right>
The Lucha Dragons debuted the night after WrestleMania 30 and they were one of the hottest tag teams and expected them to win the tag titles soon and now two years later look at them nowith
Salido Del Sol from top of ladder, onto another ladder……. Never forget
I love Alberto! I even jumped out of my seat when he returned, but then they killed him by putting him with Zeb, then again when he was in League Of Nations…. so sad
Del Rio wins
QUICK Turn Del Rio face please!!!! HURRY!!
Raw’s been great tonight in my opinion it’s gotten me excited for Extreme Rules
Yes!!
Very excited to see Roman Reigns destroy AJ again.
Well guys, im outtie. Not gonna watch the contract signing. Very good episode of Raw. Cant wait til Sunday
Thanks for joining!
I swear Nattie be dropping sexual references every week in her promos??
I would never want to be on the receiving end of a slap from Stephanie…never ever
Good show
Thanks for joining us guys! Hope you can join us on Sunday
