But Punk WWE is anti bullying :P

[Guest Ciaran The King]

What was that with Punk, came across as childish to me

[dsrchris 190]

He's always done it, and it played into him being p*ssed off after losing to Brock. He comes out to vent, an annoying guy in the crowd starts being super obnoxious, so Punk says "dude, I'm in the mood for a fight, and if you don't shut up it's gonna be you".

 

I like it. But then I liked Punk and his invisible microphone, and him telling that guy in Australia that he has a vagina.

[Guest Jimmy Redman]

So was Raw good?

 

Maybe its just me but I thought the show was a blast.

 

The Bryan angle was exactly what it needed to be from all involved. The only thing Cena didn't do was literally light a torch on fire and hand it to Bryan. The Shield as Corporate hired guns is a winner. Steph hugging Orton and him smirking like a rapist was a genuinely great moment that I popped huge for. And more to the point, I was CRYING TEARS OF LAUGHTER all night, between Stephanie's "a solid B+" and Hunter's "Check your ego at the door, just like I do every night." Seriously, Hunter's pained selfless martyr act was hysterical; as a babyface he was unbearably unlikeable, but as a heel he has carte blanche to troll the absolute f*ck out of me with wild abandon. Top notch dickheadery.

 

I do feel as though Orton needs to shave his hideous neckbeard to present the proper Corporate Champion image though.

 

What I really want to stress though is that THE USO MAKING THE TAG MID-TOPE IS THE GREATEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE.

 

Also, the Show vs Shield match was super fun sh*t. Show reacting to the match with "Do you really want to do that to the Shield?" was totally badass. He looked good tossing them all around and spearing Reigns, before the Shield finally regained their numbers enough to end it, and they also looked good picking Show up too.

 

Someone with technological gizmo gadget talent, please, please, PLEASE find/make a GIF of Curtis F*cking Axel trying to hand his belt to Heyman for half an hour before realising that he wasn't behind him. MOTHERF*CKING DIED A THOUSAND TIMES.

 

And speaking of, Sin Cara returns to (important) TV and kills himself on literally his first move. And Alberto tries to beat the sh*t out of him for it. You can't write comedy like this. I told you, this show was a riot.

I like Punk but he came across a sore loser punk b**tch when he went went mad

[Guest Jimmy Redman]

I thought it made him come off pretty real and sold him being pissed off. It was also consistent with Punk's character because he's generally always a pretty huge c*ck. And I'm not talking about mine. Boom boom.

 

People popped huge for it, it worked.

[Guest The Beltster]

Its better than Cena coming out, again, the night after losing the most important title in wrestling, again, and f*cking smiling.....AGAIN!!!!

 

God, I hate him so much.

[Guest Fatherof10minis]

Bring back The stooges for ONE MORE MATCH!!!!

 

And is anyone else intrigued with the Rodriguez/rvd combo? I for sure am

Yeah man, all it said to me was "I'm not in the mood for your sh*t tonight". I always like it when things like that happen.

Cena is happy no matter what because he knows he'll be back on top again

[Guest Inno]

No. It's a wellness violation in a rental car away from disaster.

[Shaun2J 127]

They should bring back a hologram of the Big Bossman as Zordon for the Shield to answer too. So essentially it's the Corporation bringing back the guys from back in the day. You'd have some MMA fighter too and down the line the Ascension could play the Ministry role. Everything rehashed in place. Just throw in some other characters like David Otunga as the Corporate lawyer and Brad Maddox as the corporate commissioner.

[Guest Magic]

I liked this show. The whol Bryan/Mcmahon's angle is something I'd like to see, and Punk was top drawer. I'm with Chris, I love the pwning of the guy in the crowd.

 

The only thing that disappointed me was Orton not wearing a suit.

.

Oh! And I legit did a lol at Ryback. And in a good way! First time that's happened.

[Guest Fatherof10minis]

I thought what punk did with the fan interaction was great. We all get complacent with the norm of things it's nice to get something a little out of the box. It's damned time these guys show real human emotions once in awhile.

[Nightfox 11]

Decent RAW, most good, with a few bad bits:

 

Ryback being a bully cracks me up, I got the feeling Del Rio was fuming with the way the match went with Sin Cara, my son loves Sin Cara, I prey everytime he wrestles he will win one single match just so my kid will be happy but every week we watch RAW my son is upset lmao.

 

AJ blatently talking to Layla, camera man caught a lovely chat between them lol. Cena leaving for a few months? thank god.

 

I think Reigns killed Ziggles

[dsrchris 190]

Oh man, I almost forgot about that spear on Ziggler. DAYUM!! :eek

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Ziggler sells like a mother f***er!!!!

[The Icon 152]

Whats next for bully Ry? While these skits are ok he needs a feud.

[DC 536]

I was saying to Becky that had he not went mental, Chris Benoit would have been the perfect "little man" to stand up to him.

[The Icon 152]

Ok so who in WWE is the, as you put it, perfect little man to stand up to him.

 

 

No name springs instantly to mind.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Rey when healthy

[dsrchris 190]

It would've been Bryan, but he's far surpassed Ryback by now.

[The Icon 152]

Rey when healthy

 

So never then.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Then what about Sin Cara?

[The Icon 152]

I was just about to mention him above. Then I thought is he over enough for fans to care right now.

 

Also his contract runs out soon. I have a feeling WWE may future endeavour him.
