Official Raw thread

This is really cool. They threw a surprise party for Ric's 70th birthday. Check out this guy's timeline for a bunch of cool pics and vids.

The guy he is with is comically top heavy. Like it seriously looks like those old mix & match toys where you could swap out body parts

I could be wrong, but this long drawn out intro for Roman doesn't feel like a coming back intro. I think he's done.

 

[jeffro151]

Glad to be wrong!

So there's 1 WM match

So there's 1 WM match

That was a good surprise. It's the perfect program too because its two guys people are interested in but keeps them away from other people so you don't have to worry about it burying other guys, etc.

 

[wildturkey]

In regards to Roman, have the released any other details other than he's in remission? Because "remission" has different stages and meanings.

 

[Judge Fudge]

I kinda liked it.

 

[Duffman]

Batista plays a much better douchebag heel than he does a face so I’m excited.

 

[justanidiot]

that may have been the best ending on a raw in the past 3 years or so, and Nature boy probably came up with the idea.

 

[OregonDucks]

Glad to hear Roman is back and in remission, whatever that may mean he's in good shape now and wish him the best of luck on his continued battle.

Batista's back? Hell yeah. Will watch for a week.

I didn't watch, but my guess is he is just back for a WM storyline? I doubt he's back fulltime. He will probably show up every couple weeks until WM, then fade away.

Ya he was just back to attack Flair and to call out HHH for a WM match.

I hook you up with a recap.

Natich was introduced but he didn't come out for about 2 minutes or so.

Bastisa grabbed a camera man and drags him to Flairs locker room and says something to him, I think it was make sure you get this.

You here a commotion while the camera man focus on the nameplate and the door.

Door opens. Bastisa drags a " unconscious Flair and drops him.

Screams to the camera " Hunter. Do I have your attention now. Huh?".

Walks away and camera pans to Flair on the ground.

Now to the ring with Hunter with concerned look. He sprinted to Flair aid with cameras following him. Screams for help. Fade to black

I agree. I'd run with this:

Next week. HHH is in the ring to start. Cuts a promo on how much Flair means to him and then calls out Bastisa.

Vince comes out and says that he, Batista, is not here and blames this as consequence of insubordination, using the whole Becky attacks during suspension.

Vince says Batista will be at Fastlane. HHH says so will he. Drops the mic.

I'm glad they're going in the direction of Ronda refusing to wrestle Charlotte to force Becky into the match. No Ronda...no main event. Unfortunately, my resolution of kicking Charlotte out of the match entirely is but a dream in my own noggin.

I would do that match at WM not Fastlane.

wait people are actually stoked about another Evolution drama again? Batista/HHH have happened what? Twice since Evolution broke up?
