Official Raw thread

On a totally different subject, several years ago I would have hated The New Day. They are a joke act. A farce. Comedy central.

But this isn't Georgia Championship Wrestling. This is WWE. Which is a joke act n and of itself.

Because of the nature of the show, The New Day is the best thing they have on Raw.

I love the New Day. They can make anything entertaining on otherwise generally a bland show. I was pissed when they were in Seattle for Raw and got sandwiched in between matches.

Every report says it's a concussion issue and not related to his neck. Again, if reports are to be believed he's been cleared for action by renowned, independent specialists. It's wrestling so there's always a chance it's all a work or misinformation, but if the issue is that WWE won't clear him but he still wants to wrestle elsewhere than they should just let him out of his contract

What did he have neck surgery for then?

 

[futballiscool]

He had neck surgery close to 2 yrs ago, he returned to action and was then sidelined with concussion issues. That's how I've heard it described

According to Total Divas, he fudged up his neck but kept wrestling after WM 30 and the WWE wanted him to get surgery but he wanted to go all natural trying to recover and had several set backs until he finally got the surgery

Unless Stephanie is out in her leather outfit there isn't a reason to watch HHH enter the ring in the WWE anymore unless he is giving a push to someone the crowd is behind which undoubtedly the WWE won't do.

I agree!!! I liked that HHH got revenge on Roman and cost him the title then they had HHH win the title instead of losing to Brey or Owens or Ziggler or Ambrose or ETC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that's the biggest problem with HHH winning the Rumble. They're obviously setting up a
"pass the torch" moment at Mania against Reigns but Reigns isn't really over with the crowd. So you basically have a main event with one guy who's past his prime and another who hasn't fully connected with the audience. Maybe it turns out better than I'm expecting but as of now it seems like a nightmare

You're right, it's a nightmare!!!

Except that we all just can't wake it and make it a distant fuzzy memory.

I liked HHH being in there it just seems like idiotic writing to have Ambrose in there at the end and not have Ambrose turn on Reigns to give HHH the title or have Reigns turn on Ambrose to keep the title. I hate Kevin Owens but with the crowd reaction to him and Zayn and Styles it seems like they could generate a ton of momentum if they do that feud for the IC title. Cause story telling wise Ambrose is a huge loser with the Rumble.

How is Ambrose a huge loser? He went 20 minutes with Owens earlier and then lasted 20+ minutes in the actual Rumble itself. Last night made Ambrose look amazing.

Also under no circumstance should Ambrose turn heel right now, look I get that you want it but WWE needs faces right now with Cena and Orton being injured and Ambrose it mega over with the crowd. Turning him feel would extremely idiotic.

I'm not saying he should've as I'd prefer Reigns but someone needed to if HHH was going to be involved.

Ambrose had an amazing night but from a story line I feel he lost big time going into WM. Him and Owens had an amazing match but basically every WM storyline was created in the Rumble except Ambrose and there aren't any real partners left for him to feud with.

WWE is teasing a "huge" return tonight. They are in Miami. Gee, whoever could it be?!?!?!!

 

[Kinzu]

They need a major Heel right now more than a Face. They have no heels on the roster capable of elevating a Baby Face to superstar status which is why a lot feel Roman should have already been turned into that guy by now. He has all the makings to be a great heel right now and they have plenty of baby faces that he could feud with and each would have their status elevated over the course of it. Reigns fails as a face because he comes off as to powerful and just not likable.

Miami isn't that far from Orlando. He could've showed up last night and done something at the Rumble but I guess everyone was expecting that so WWE didn't do it.
