RAW is Laptop! 7/19/10

[obtainium]

This is the first time i've watched Raw on a steam, American ads suck.

[Masculine Todd]

hell probably feud with him to kill time till he cashes it in at some point


Um...didn't you just say you wanted him to work his way up to Main Event?

R-truth pretty much equals Matt Hardy.

Personally, I don't want him to work up to it. I'd love to see him in the main-event now. He's been US Champ twice, and has done everything possible in the midcard. However, if he's going to tread water for a few months, I'd rather it be with someone like Morrison.

[Briomega]

what happened?
my cable went out right after he slamed shamus head into teh case......arrrggggggg

Sheamus wasn't concious. He has to be to start the match. While the ref tried to revive him Truth came out and Miz called off the match.

[Drew]

This is the first time i've watched Raw on a steam, American ads suck.

Agreed.

[UltimateQuintessa]

Today is actually the 19th Miz.

[Foolish Mortal]

Damn it! I was marking so hard for a moment. I hope Miz isn't relegated to a feud with R-Truth. That tease was fantastic though.

Miz still has the U.S. title. They're probably going to do something about that before he gets a wwe title shot.

[obtainium]

He won it on the 18th though.

Well not everyone can get a mega push like Sheamus.

[Masculine Todd]

Summerslam '98 was the first wrestling PPV I ever watched live. The Austin/'Taker program was so hot.

[Drew]

Today is actually the 19th Miz.

He won the case on the 18th, and 365 days later is July 17th.

[Roger]

Today is actually the 19th Miz.

but he won it on the 18th.....so he has till the 17th of next year.

come on people....this isn't hard to figure out

[UltimateQuintessa]

He won the case on the 18th, and 365 days later is July 17th.

That's why the Miz is awesome and I'm not.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

He won it on the 18th though.

Yeah Miz was right.

[Briomega]

They are really turning Sheamus into a joke.

[obtainium]

It's not going to be shamus at Summerslam then

[Drew]

They are really turning Sheamus into a joke.

They can't have a fella be a legitimate threat anymore.

[UltimateQuintessa]

They are really turning Sheamus into a joke.

"turning"? I always thought he was?

[Roger]

cena setting up a trap for nexus

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Cena turning would be great, but it won't happen.

[Drew]

"turning"? I always thought he was?

Fella, they presented the fella as a real threat to the DUBWA DUBWA E

[UltimateQuintessa]

cena setting up a trap for nexus

with a net. Hopefully of the giant butterfly variety.:cool:

[Roger]

It's not going to be shamus at Summerslam then

randy won the title shot tonight.

[obtainium]

Ahhh I wish Cena was turning heel.

[Masculine Todd]

Miz still has the U.S. title. They're probably going to do something about that before he gets a wwe title shot.

Right, but I'd enjoy seeing him hold the US Title when he gets the title. It won't happen, but it'd be the perfect the way to signify he's a force in the main-event.


Well not everyone can get a mega push like Sheamus.

Of course. I understand Raw's roster is so top-heavy, it makes upward mobility difficult at the moment. That doesn't change the fact that Miz is ready for the main-event. I'm also of the opinion that Miz/Morrison would lead to a more entertaining feud than Truth/Miz.

[Drew]

BY THE HOUNDS OF HELL, I STAB AT THEE QUIZNOS WIZARDS OF THE FIVE FOUR THREE!!!

*passes out*

[UltimateQuintessa]

Fella, they presented the fella as a real threat to the DUBWA DUBWA E

Maybe his tag team with Santino isn't as far away as I think.

[Briomega]

Hour and a half and the GM has done one thing. :lol: What's the fucking point?

[obtainium]

Man that Expendables trailer. That film cant come soon enough.

[UltimateQuintessa]

Right, but I'd enjoy seeing him hold the US Title when he gets the title. It won't happen, but it'd be the perfect the way to signify he's a force in the main-event.

It would be but I hope they are saving it when Morrison has proven himself more and is main event status. So we get Morrison and Miz fueding over the WWE title.

[Roger]

Man that Expendables trailer. That film cant come soon enough.

yeah, there's still some good flix coming out in the next few months

[UltimateQuintessa]

Hour and a half and the GM has done one thing. :lol: What's the fucking point?

Too busy playing mahjong to pay attention to what is going on the show.

[Daniel K.]

It would be but I hope they are saving it when Morrison has proven himself more and is main event status. So we get Morrison and Miz fueding over the WWE title.

I could totally dig this.

[Briomega]

We know what Todd's buying... :)

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

If WWE is PG why do they run ad's for movies that are rated R and PG-13? (sarcasm)

[Briomega]

No more silly clown pants for Woo Woo Boy?

[Masculine Todd]

It would be but I hope they are saving it when Morrison has proven himself more and is main event status. So we get Morrison and Miz fueding over the WWE title.

I'd love to see Morrison/Miz have a career-spanning feud, where they have a feud every couple of years at various stages in their respective careers, ala' Hogan/Piper.

[Roger]

hey...someone stole zack's other leg....

[UltimateQuintessa]

No more silly clown pants for Woo Woo Boy?

Good now I can take him seriously.

Oh wait no I can't.

[Masculine Todd]

While Zack has fantastic legs, his one legged look was awesome.

[UltimateQuintessa]

hey...someone stole zack's other leg....

Zack Gowan? I forgot all about that guy.

[UltimateQuintessa]

I'd love to see Morrison/Miz have a career-spanning feud, where they have a feud every couple of years at various stages in their respective careers, ala' Hogan/Piper.

You sure ask a lot out of WWE these days. :eek:

[Masculine Todd]

We know what Todd's buying... :)

I normally don't go for the muscly type, but I would eat cheesecake off of his abs.

[Drew]

Zack Ryder deserves better.

[obtainium]

It would be awesome if we could say in a few years, Morrison and Miz> HHH and The Rock

[Briomega]

Santino! :rock:

[UltimateFactor]

Holy shit, did Santino just get a clean pin on someone?

[Masculine Todd]

You sure ask a lot out of WWE these days. :eek:

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for Benoit/Cena at SummerSlam.

[Drew]

Black Cena didn't get his hair done?

[Roger]

i don't care....santino still makes me laugh

[Briomega]

Piper Perabo looks like a lizard.

[UltimateQuintessa]

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for Benoit/Cena at SummerSlam.

A lot of Benoit jokes tonight.

[Drew]

No John Cena leave me alone!

[Masculine Todd]

It would be awesome if we could say in a few years, Morrison and Miz> HHH and The Rock

Dare to dream.

[Drew]

A lot of Benoit jokes tonight.

It's getting to be about that time again.

[UltimateQuintessa]

No John Cena leave me alone!

If that happened to me, that would be the coolest thing ever.

[Masculine Todd]

A lot of Benoit jokes tonight.

You started it!

[Foolish Mortal]

It's getting to be about that time again.
Summerfest!!!

[UltimateQuintessa]

You started it!

:Oops:

[Briomega]

Come on Barrett!

[Drew]

Summerfest!!!

NO! SUMMERFEST IS A TWO-WEEK LONG MUSIC FESTIVAL, NOT SOME INTERNET MEME! NO!

no

[UltimateQuintessa]

Come on Barrett!

He ain't gonna lose to Kool Aid Man.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Promoting John Cena's charity 7-11 cup before turning him heel, I like it! :lol:

[Drew]

Here we go Barra, here we go. *clap clap*

[UltimateQuintessa]

NO! SUMMERFEST IS A TWO-WEEK LONG MUSIC FESTIVAL, NOT SOME INTERNET MEME! NO!

no

I gave up fighting that war the same night Jeremy Piven said it.:surrend:

[Briomega]

I'm kind of disappointed that Wade doesn't wear the suit jacket over the T-shirt.

[obtainium]

Oh this match is not going to be pretty.

[Briomega]

Promoting John Cena's charity 7-11 cup before turning him heel, I like it! :lol:

:mistrust:

[Masculine Todd]

Push this man to the moon, post-haste.

[Zack_Hunter]

squashing barret would be pretty funny

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

:mistrust:

I am not serious, I just thought WWE probably shouldn't be promoting charity work that Cena is doing even if they don't really turn him heel tonight or any night before he turns heel. It really doesn't help out the storyline.

[Masculine Todd]

King: "What a stain it would be on Nexus should their leader lose to Mark Henry."

Even King knows Henry's a jobber.

[Briomega]

King: "What a stain it would be on Nexus should their leader lose to Mark Henry."

Even King knows Henry's a jobber.

:lol:

[UltimateFactor]

I think the King is the GM.

[Briomega]

Barrett's fake tan is a bit uneven.

[Zack_Hunter]

oh come on!

[UltimateFactor]

Wow.

[UltimateQuintessa]

Barrett now has Hernia.

[Masculine Todd]

Botch, but it was still an impressive feat.

[Briomega]

Holy fucking shit!

:rock:

[Eison]

Well that certainly was something.

[Drew]

Barrett will be feeling that...in the morning.

[UltimateQuintessa]

I think the King is the GM.

Diva bikini/lingerie matchs every week. I could deal with that.

[xanderharris]

hernia-city

[Roger]

wow....henry was lucky he wasn't droped on his head.

[Drew]

Diva bikini/lingerie matchs every week. I could deal with that.

They would have to be tasteful. Rated PG after all.

[Briomega]

Jesus christ that was insane.

[Drew]

Henry shouldn't have held on the rope for so long.

[obtainium]

Ergh this isnt going to be very good is it.

[Foolish Mortal]

Henry didn't do much to assist Barret in that slam.

[UltimateFactor]

I miss old school Heel Jerry Lawler :rofl: I grew up on a lot of the southern wrestling so he was as great as Flair to me.

[UltimateQuintessa]

They would have to be tasteful. Rated PG after all.

Nope King's would nix the PG thing.

[Briomega]

Henry shouldn't have held on the rope for so long.

It wasn't that. Barrett is used to going back first before throwing the guy forward. Henry's weight just threw him off balance when he did that and he almost lost him.

[Masculine Todd]

It's amazing to think, just two months ago, Barrett was solely a part of NXT on Tuesdays. Now, he's an integral part of Raw each week and involved in the top program in the company. He's acclimated to the role well.

[Foolish Mortal]

It wasn't that. Barrett is used to going back first before throwing the guy forward. Henry's weight just threw him off balance when he did that and he almost lost him.

Barrett was rubbing his back. He's gonna be sore in the morning.

[UltimateQuintessa]

It's amazing to think, just two months ago, Barrett was solely a part of NXT on Tuesdays. Now, he's an integral part of Raw each week and involved in the top program in the company. He's acclimated to the role well.

JR sent Vince an email about that blue chipper.:eek:

[Briomega]

It's amazing to think, just two months ago, Barrett was solely a part of NXT on Tuesdays. Now, he's an integral part of Raw each week and involved in the top program in the company. He's acclimated to the role well.

I knew from the start the dude was going to be huge. He's just got it.

[Eison]

So would you rather bump into Rey Mysterio in a 7-11 or John Cena in a public bathroom?

[UltimateQuintessa]

I hope Barrett's back isn't seriously fucked up. Otherwise the Nexus angle is completely fucked.

[obtainium]

Barrett was rubbing his back. He's gonna be sore in the morning.

The big nancy girl.

[UltimateQuintessa]

So would you rather bump into Rey Mysterio in a 7-11 or John Cena in a public bathroom?

Maryse in my bedroom.

[Briomega]

Barrett was rubbing his back. He's gonna be sore in the morning.

Yeah, for sure. He should have just threw Henry forward and it would still have been impressive. They are both really lucky. That could have been nasty.

[Masculine Todd]

Henry didn't do much to assist Barret in that slam.

I attribute most of the blame to Barrett. He pulls the opponent back before slamming them forward. I can't fathom why he attempted to pull Henry back before dropping him forward.

[Briomega]

Looks like his neck is fucked up. :( Hope it's nothing serious.

[Drew]

Tarver's boring me.

[Masculine Todd]

I knew from the start the dude was going to be huge. He's just got it.

I think everyone knew he'd win NXT and receive a push of some sort, but I wouldn't have guessed that it would be to this degree. You're right. He has that "it factor."

[Foolish Mortal]

Tarver is a good talker too.

[UltimateFactor]

Huh. He's not great on the mic, but he's not bad either. Go Tarver.

[Briomega]

Tarver is a good talker too.

Yeah, he's not too bad and the bandanna thing is a cool look.

[Masculine Todd]

Tarver isn't bad on the mic. He's not great, but he's capable.

[obtainium]

Please do something unexpected here.

[Masculine Todd]

Yeah, he's not too bad and the bandanna thing is a cool look.

It's a nice touch. He's got a thug aesthetic that makes him appear dangerous.

[Drew]

Man. Nexus would have been awesome with Barrett and Season 2 at the Helm.

[Masculine Todd]

Quiet Cena will soon build to shouting, over-excited Cena.

He's like a Pixies song.

[The Human Target]

Piper Perabo looks like a lizard.

:mad:



Also, I love that Sheamus has seemingly won most of you over now.

[UltimateFactor]

Man. Nexus would have been awesome with Barrett and Season 2 at the Helm.

I agree. As a whole I like the season two cast way better.

[UltimateQuintessa]

Where is my giant net?

[Masculine Todd]

Man. Nexus would have been awesome with Barrett and Season 2 at the Helm.

I couldn't take it seriously if Percy Watson was dancing in the background, and that's from someone who adores Percy.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Quiet Cena will soon build to shouting, over-excited Cena.

He's like a Pixies song.

:rofl:

[Briomega]

I couldn't take it seriously if Percy Watson was dancing in the background, and that's from someone who adores Percy.

Yeah, seriously.

[Drew]

I couldn't take it seriously if Percy Watson was dancing in the background, and that's from someone who adores Percy.

Make him a Lawyer friendly version of the Joker and it would be gold. Oh Yeah!

[Drew]

Yeah, seriously.

Quiet you.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

They should have Bourne come out and try to talk Cena out of it and have Cena beat the shit out of him.

[Briomega]

How bout Option 3...

[UltimateQuintessa]

This is really weird.

[Kirblar]

Most vicious beating? But you can't choke him out with a tie!

[Masculine Todd]

Cena's lost his smile.

[Briomega]

And he's serious.

[Drew]

Here comes your Man.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Danielson should be on his team. I know it won't happen though.

[Briomega]

So now we get to spend weeks wondering which one is the traitor.

[Foolish Mortal]

Aw Shit! Hornswoggle!!

[UltimateFactor]

Not much of a surprise, but should be an interesting PPV anyway.

[Drew]

Oooh. Ron Killings ruins something else.

[Masculine Todd]

Great Khali? Really?

[UltimateQuintessa]

The Great Khali?

[Zack_Hunter]

Why the fuck would you waste a slot on khali?!

[Briomega]

Khali? :lol:

[Drew]

Oooh. The Great Khali main eventing a Pay-per-view?

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

So now we get to spend weeks wondering which one is the traitor.

Yup, someone has to be a traitor.

[UltimateFactor]

Cena is going to turn on them all.

[Drew]

Jericho? Interesting.

[Briomega]

What the fuck?!?!?!?!

[Zack_Hunter]

O_O


I did not see that coming!

[UltimateFactor]

Wtf?

[obtainium]

Sick

[UltimateQuintessa]

I love how the Nexus sold Old man Hart.

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Bret is the traitor and the GM.

[Eison]

Well that was a big ole lame sammich of stuff that continues to be awkward and make little sense.

[obtainium]

Heel turn for hart maybe?

[Briomega]

Hmmm, all part of a bigger picture...

...the traitor's Bret.

[Drew]

Bret Hart? That better just be for a crowd pop.

[Roger]

looks like i was right...7 on 7...whooo!!!!!

[Masculine Todd]

I'd gladly trade Khali or Truth for Evan Bourne.

[UltimateFactor]

Bah, when you get a team like that together, the Nexus is obviously outclassed. Hope they do something interesting.

[Roger]

Bret Hart? That better just be for a crowd pop.


well, he can be well hidden in a 7 on 7 match.

[Briomega]

I'd gladly trade Khali or Truth for Evan Bourne.

Yeah, I don't understand that one.

[Foolish Mortal]

So is this the result of that mysterious chewing out that Ranjin gave Khali a month ago??

[Roger]

I'd gladly trade Khali or Truth for Evan Bourne.

maybe we'll see evan vs the miz at the ppv.....hmmmmm
:)

[Foolish Mortal]

Bah, when you get a team like that together, the Nexus is obviously outclassed. Hope they do something interesting.

This is when their mysterious benefactor comes into play.

[Foolish Mortal]

I'd gladly trade Khali or Truth for Evan Bourne.

Hell I'd take Koslov over Khali.

[xanderharris]

That was a pretty cool ending....Take out Khali and thats pretty awesome. I marked out for Bret. It was unexpected. They worked Meltzer on the Bret deal unless it just happened.

Should be good and I have a feeling the Nexus' benefector will be revealed at Summerslam.

It has to be Triple H at this point.

[Briomega]

Yeah, Triple H is the only thing that would really even make sense anymore.

[Briomega]

So was that thing about Bret's insurance policy bullshit then?

[AndrewG]

That was a pretty cool ending....Take out Khali and thats pretty awesome. I marked out for Bret. It was unexpected. They worked Meltzer on the Bret deal unless it just happened.

Should be good and I have a feeling the Nexus' benefector will be revealed at Summerslam.

It has to be Triple H at this point.

My kids went nuts when Cena's team was revealed and begged me to order the PPV

[xanderharris]

So was that thing about Bret's insurance policy bullshit then?

Yea. There is no way theyd let him be in a match nevermind get attacked backstage.

Plus Meltzer said Bret was gone for good and was done with the company.

[obtainium]

Fingers crossed for a Cena heel turn even though i know its not coming.

[Roger]

Yea. There is no way theyd let him be in a match nevermind get attacked backstage.

Plus Meltzer said Bret was gone for good and was done with the company.

well, meltzer said so it must be true.....:roll:
he's just a mark with a keyboard that rely's on what some snitch from wwe tells him.

[The Human Target]

When is Batista starting with TNA again?

I forget.

[Briomega]

Yea. There is no way theyd let him be in a match nevermind get attacked backstage.

Plus Meltzer said Bret was gone for good and was done with the company.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I get my news from what you guys post in the wrestling thread so... :lol:

[Kirblar]

Yeah, that's what I figured. I get my news from what you guys post in the wrestling thread so... :lol:
Meltzer's getting played a LOT lately. :lol:

The Abraham Washington as GM thing has been the biggest thing they've repeatedly fed to him that was obvious BS.

[Roger]

When is Batista starting with TNA again?

I forget.

after his 90 day clause......ha.

[Briomega]

So could this all be part of a continuing Bret vs. Vince? It seemed like that's what they were hinting at when Bret was named GM in the first place but then he left. Could there be a Hunter wanting to take over the company from Vince and the two found a mutually beneficial path to all of that utilizing Nexus?

[Steve Marshall]

well, meltzer said so it must be true.....:roll:
he's just a mark with a keyboard that rely's on what some snitch from wwe tells him.

:roll:

He's been proven right more often than not.

[Roger]

:roll:

He's right more often than not.

please.....we all guessed last night's ppv just as much as he did.

hell, earlier tonight i said that there's most likely going to be a nexus vs wwe match at the next ppv.

now give me $10.00 a month...lol

[xanderharris]

When is Batista starting with TNA again?

I forget.

HAHHA I like you.

[Kurt Russell Crowe]

phew, a Fella didn't lose his strap, thought he was going to there for a minute!

[arthurloewenkamp]

Dark match following Raw was Cena V. Sheamus for the belt. Cena had the STFU in and then Nexus ran down. Team Cena followed and there was some fighting back and forth. It was capped by Bret Hart putting the sharpshooter on Slater. That was unexpected. Pretty solid Raw to be at, I didn't even have to worry about guest host bs.

[XXXenophile]

Here comes Jericho's...downfall.

{puts on sunglasses}

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[XXXenophile]

Is Sheamus a Kid 'n Play fan?

You know Black Cena is. He started with Kid's original hairstyle, and then went to the hairstyle he changed to in "Class Act".

[XXXenophile]

Why the fuck would you waste a slot on khali?!

Because he's a great visual threat all of the Nexus. Slater sold his reaction well.

[Dr. Blasphemy]

I was hoping for Bryan Danielson to be the 7th for the WWE guys...Oh well, it's okay to dream...:)

[Masculine Todd]

Yea. There is no way theyd let him be in a match nevermind get attacked backstage.

Plus Meltzer said Bret was gone for good and was done with the company.

That's erroneous. Meltzer mentioned that Bret had to negotiate new terms with Lloyd's of London to enable him to collect on his insurance while performing light "stunt work", but that he was expected back in the company around SummerSlam.

[Masculine Todd]

please.....we all guessed last night's ppv just as much as he did.

hell, earlier tonight i said that there's most likely going to be a nexus vs wwe match at the next ppv.

now give me $10.00 a month...lol


He's only won awards from ESPN and Sports Illustrated, the former giving him a lifetime achievement award, been published in the New York Times, Yahoo's sports section and other major publications, and has regular contact with virtually all of the major players in wrestling. He's often proven right, but fuck him!
