WWE Raw & Smackdown Weekly Thread

Really? AJ is the GM...do you wanna join me now, with the fact that this is whack?

If that's all you're complaining about, they've done well so far. It's an angle they'll keep for a few months and then drop when AJ's act gets stale. None of the GMs are ever permanent.

Come on, we've seen a DX reunion, JR, Foley, Hot Rod, Hacksaw, Bret Hart, and The Great One. I liked the six man tag match. I liked the segment with Bryan, Punk, and Rock. And now an IC match with Miz and Christian. And we're only half way through the show. Should be a great night with Lesnar, HHH, and some more surprises to follow.

Agreed. She looks pretty goddamn good.

Not as good as Trish though... :tongue:





Brock definitely dropped an F-bomb. I love it. And big props to Heyman for letting Stephanie beat him down.

It took me a while to recognize Trish. She doesn't even look like herself. She looks alright, but I'm not "wow'ed" by her at all.

So what do you guys think:
They did this (allegedly legitimate) poll on what people's #1 dream match would be, through the game WWE 13, and the winner was John Cena vs Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Do you think they may possibly be hinting at a possible main event for next Wrestlemania?

btw, Holy shit. They brought back the plush dolls... I thought those were so cheesy, even when I was a kid and they were pushing the Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior and Macho Man ones.

 

[Moonchild22]

I'm not trying to sound like a sap, but I believe I had a tear in my eye when I saw Lita. My all-time favorite Diva. She still looks a-freakin-mazing. I miss her.

 

[darkwarrior3007]

I was hoping for a CM Punk vs Steve Austin match, if they were going to do something like that. Personally, concerning that poll, I chose CM Punk vs. Randy Savage.

Oh yeah, ahh Lita!:drool2:

 

[maildude]

Mick Foley should go to work for the CIA.

 

[Ace Bandage]

Lita might have looked the best tonight. I'll give you that.

Ryder (WWWYKI) making a GTV reference was awesome. Those secret behind the scenes clips were great back in the day. I always thought the G was for Goldust. :dunno:




Goddamn, fucking Undertaker. The hits just keep coming. Where's the Rattlesnake?

 

[Moonchild22]

I just saw a local WWE commercial for Chicago's Allstate Arena. Due to contractual obligations, John Lauranaitis must team up with the Big Show to face John Cena and CM Punk.

Stone Cold is the missing piece. That's for sure.
I think GTV was originally intended for Goldust to be behind it, but they changed it at some point, revealing it not to be him. Then it eventually faded away...much like Goldust did. Speaking of Goldust, remember Terri Runnels? :drool2: The horny little she-devil.

 

[Ace Bandage]

Did Vince Russo write the ending segment of RAW tonight? A heel turn for Punk and no Stone Cold? Where the fuck did that come from?

How do you have a 1,000th episode celebration without the guy that put the show on the map? I'm the biggest Rock fan of all, but Austin vs. Vince was the greatest feud in RAW history. Somebody dropped the ball tonight.

 

[darkwarrior3007]

Overall, RAW was pretty good tonight, but Stone Cold not being there doesn't make any sense.

 

[Moonchild22]

"I think CM Punk just turned on the WWE Universe". Oh, shut up, Lawler. He was never turned to the WWE Universe. He never catered to the masses. He always did what he wanted to. The 'universe' decided they wanted to cheer for him. If they decide to boo him, then they turned on him. Of course his real fans will continue to cheer for him. It's just those wishy-washy ones, who only liked him because it was the thing to do, who immediately turned on him. So fical. They turn on a dime, don't they? Hell, I still cheer for Jericho, and he's almost always heel.
I liked the way it played out. Of course they want us to take this as a heel turn. Note the extreme close-ups on Punk's face. They always do those when trying to push heel turns.
They must've decided that Punk was more interesting as a heel, and that they've gone as far as their minds can muster with him as a face.

The show overall was good - great, compared to what we're used to. I think the entire universe (at least those over 21) are all saying the same thing: "Where the hell was Austin??"

 

[Ace Bandage]

I knew Austin was filming a movie and had prior obligations, but how do you not have something from him? Fuck, tape an interview with him, or go live via satellite. The Rock mailed it in for months when he couldn't be there in person. Why couldn't Austin have done the same thing?

I wouldn't expect ol' Stone Cold to flake out. I'm sure there will be all kinds of rumors now.

Speaking of CM Punk, I guess it's good that he's turned heel (again). He'll actually be put in main events now. As long as the likes of Cena are there, he'll never main event as a face.
This may also be a ploy by the company to get people to want to see Punk vs Rock. The whole "I respect you but I don't like you" angle they had during Rock vs Cena wasn't interesting enough, so they may want to make things more intense or edgy with Punk's feud with him.

i usually watch the replay of RAW which i record on saturday night, but i had to record AND watch this when i got home from my hockey game last night.
STEPHANIE LOOKED STUNNING!!! she was always my favorite "diva" but i guess that is because i had a crush on her!
LITA was a super surprise! i for sure thought AUSTIN was going to come out to destroy Slater.
so all of DX was there except CHYNA? i guess she was busy making a porn film?
the Taker-Kane segment was cool but what did it do? nothing?
so how does the Rock who hasn't been around since WM get to be in the title match @ royal rumble? shouldn't you have to work your way up the ladder to get a title shot? and wouldn't Cena have been better off not cashing in his money in the bank contract,waiting for after the royal rumble...if by some chance the Rock was to beat Punk for the title ....wouldn't you (CENA) get the PENULTIMATE revenge by beating a world champion Rock instead of possibly defending a title against him IF you beat Punk last night?

BTW where was Austin???????? me= disappointed :crying:

The biggest draw in wrestling history, doesn't even show up?


Whalers, i agree with everything you stated.

Austin underwent a major knee surgery on his left knee. that's why he did not attend Raw.

He still could have done a taped/live promo...regardless, WWE "still" dropped the ball!
