Official Raw thread

Sadly, I think the Bella angle is one of the most interesting ones in WWE right now. A fatal-fourway from the title with Brie, Nikki, AJ and Paige would be cool. I like the Rusev-Henry feud and Lesnar/Cena rematch is tolerably decent. If they wouldn't have had a great Summerslam, I'd have been done with it for a while too.

That said, I won't be watching Monday. My Cardinals are on MNF so no competition there.

the only title deal they can get is to send nikki up against paige and have brie cost her the title. I just dont see Brie too into this whole deal, probably wants to get knocked up and this is her way out of wrestling. Hopefully the Bella deal does not mesh with the title feud, there are two separate reasons to get divas involved in raw.

Still expect sexual chocolate to get a valet soon for the rusev deal. I still hope Jenn Sterger is up for the gig since she trained with CJ Perry for a while. That would allow this bella deal to go away when the ratings are ok for the diva program.

They just need to let cena and lesnar throw a few punches on raw before NOC.

Lesnar would actually have to show up for Raw for that to happen, so no chance.

Give them a tiny amount of credit.

Brie did a segment with Nikki without having one of those boohoo fake cries.

In her defense, the way she has been written in this whole angle up til this point, be hard for anyone even with good acting skills not to come across like an annoying crybaby.

one thing that keeps me from watching MNF is al michaels.

Al Michaels does the Sunday night games. So Mondays are now open for your viewing pleasure!

Al Michaels on Raw would be sweet. Fire Jbl. #9.99

In spite of Nikki being the bad twin, it's really hard to side with Brie. In fact, Nikki made a lot of good points about Brie being a self-centered bitch.

I'm surprised Brie hasn't called NIkki out as a liar for all that stuff. It makes more sense, considering Nikki is the bad twin, for all that stuff to not actually be true. Look for an episode where the prom date and cop that allegedly arrested Brie come to RAW to set things straight!

I don't see any reason for Nikki to lie about that stuff.

or their parents will show up to set the record straight.

Wrestling Booking 101 says that heels always lie.

IDK, I find heels to be more honest than faces.

WWE signed Lesnar to a deal that will allow them to book him as much as they like. What this mean is, Brock will be making A LOT of money, and John Cena is about to get squashed like a bug again

Brock Lesnar Signs New Contract With WWE, May Appear In Night Of Champions [VIDEO] - International Business Times

Pretty interesting. Seems like they officially latched the money wagon to Brock.

another source adds a fact, "While he is champion"

http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/507769-brock-lesnar-wwe-champion-contract

I wonder if this is something they do with each new title holder.

 

[johnson]

"May appear at Night of Champions"? Odd headline. I figured that was pretty much a given.

That was odd, but the international news source might not be in tune with the WWE. It almost seems like he could go out and say that even HHH does not think cena is worthy of a title shot, so Brock wont be fighting because nobody is worthy of a beating. Maybe it turns to a fatal 4 way to get to a #1 contender?

But then again, if its gonna be big bucks to get Lesnar to each individual show, maybe thats the other side of the coin, if WWE does not want to pay him, they just dont book him.

Legendary Jim Ross to make his MMA debut

Saw Smackdown tonight, was a pretty good show by Smackdown standards. I'm actually enjoying Smackdown more than Raw as of late.

 

[RobToxin]

So how soon before Ray Rice makes his Raw debut?

I got the Raw after NOC. Although I believe but can't confirm that TNA has dips on all bad conduct suspended NFL stars (such as Packman Jones).
