Official Raw thread

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Just saying that Terry Allen and Goldberg dominated enough with two moves that it drove WCW to compete with Raw. Nothing wrong with watching Mike Tyson destroy every opponent. It would leave more time for all the microphone drama everyone seems to like so much.

Just saying we have watched plenty go down in flames with the long matches. Even Hogan was a two minute wonder. He would get beat up the entire match until he started shaking and hearing the fans.

They could try it but they'll need him to feud with Seth Rollins the whole time for Rollins to carry him in matches. Fans will take notice & turn on Reigns like how they turned on Ryback. Looking back they should've turned Roman Reigns into a heel.

At first I was like :gash: but if the other options are Brock Lesnar (who never shows) and Roman Reigns (who only has 2 moves) then it makes perfect sense why Cena is the champion again. They will have to push Seth Rollins as the savior of the WWE right after Summer Slam IMO.

Reigns needs to be a Heyman guy!

Yeah, they seem to have pushed Ambrose to feud with Rollins for that exact reasons. I still think Reigns will be the one that hits Cena first, but I dont know if that will turn him into a heel since Cena is 50-50 heel.

I'm in those rare situations where I find myself rooting for Cena to be the champion, unless Rollins cashes in the briefcase.

Cena is pretty good with the belt. Much as you want to see someone else with it, he knows how to carry a championship.

I have a strange feeling Bo Dallas is winning the IC Title. You heard it here first.

Conspiracy theory...

The WWE giving props to AJ Styles? Triple H and Samoa Joe followed each other on twitter long enough to exchange contact information this weekend. Angle's contract is up in September and on JR's podcast it would like he wants to sign with the WWE.

Not sure that it will happen but that'd be a nice infusion of talent for the WWE

Yeah, right now a lot of TNA talent should just crossover. Only thing that TNA has going for it is the Knockouts Division. They should just be about female wrestling instead of trying to compete with the WWE.

Somoa Joe , Styles, and Angle would all be great additions.

I think Cena is going to retain in the 4 way, then Brock is going to come out and destroy Cena, Rollins is going to cash in, and SummerSlam will be Rollins vs Ambrose for the Title, Cena vs Lesner, Orton vs Reigns, and HHH vs Sting(who shows up this Monday night)

Kurt Angle needs to come back and it's obvious who should manage him: Zeb Colter. He needs to go after Rusev and bring his medals with him.

That would be way cool, hope it happens just like that!

Looking back, Roman Reigns should've joined Evolution or whatever they're called now. Having him stand alone is exposing him for all his weaknesses as a potential main event guy. Only reason he's in the fatal 4way is because they're scared to put him in a big match where he has to promote & go the distance. He fails in both those regards. He needs the likes of Cena, Orton, & even Kane to compensate for all his shortcomings & hope Reigns doesn't continue to expose himself for flop that he really is. Kinda sad really, I was a big Reigns fan when he was with The Shield. But now that he's by himself he's looking more & more like the weakest link on The Shield.

 

[johnson]

Reigns would be a way better Heyman guy than Cesaro.

It's strange, I said from Day 1 that Reigns could not hack it as a main event player due to his poor mic skills, lack of personality, etc. But I've actually been somewhat surprised at how he's come across. Maybe because my expectations were so low?

I agree, make Reigns a Heyman guy ASAP!

You were right about Reigns. I expected big things from him. Boy was I wrong

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

It's funny, when The Shield split up I figured that Reigns would be the biggest winner and Ambrose would be the biggest loser. So far, it's be the exact opposite.
