Tonight’s WWE RAW Supershow takes place from the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado. Advertised locally is John Cena vs. Big Show and John Laurinaitis in a Handicap Match. WWE will also tape SmackDown tonight as Tuesday’s tapings were canceled due to the Colorado wildfires. Tonight’s tapings will see Superstars first, RAW live at 9pm EST and then SmackDown following RAW.
WWE is hyping the following points for tonight’s show:
* What is AJ Lee up to as we approach Money in the Bank?
* Who will be the next Superstar to fall victim to Alberto Del Rio’s wrath?
* A possible rematch between Tensai and Tyson Kidd
* More as The Prime Time Players go for the WWE Tag Team Titles
* Who will the mystery General Manager be?

Not sure how these things work - does that mean the same audience will get to watch all three events one after the other - possibly lasting over five hours? That's a very long time even for the most hardcore fans.

Supposedly

Bob Backlund

will be the returning legend tonight.

I could see the anonymous Raw GM being the "mystery GM" tonight.

Yes. Probably about a half hour break in between as they do set change overs etc. Reckon the crowd will be dead for most of Smackdown.

Yeah, the crowd will be over popped.

Minus tv breaks what is your average WWE tv taping? 1hour 40 minutes?
So seeing as how Smackdown is being taped after raw. I expect they'll lash through it. Either that or just put that bit more crap in (recap of raw or what not)

Eire-Dearg

Tough going, I'd probably head away after Raw tbh.

CMpunked

wait, whats on after raw tonight?

CMpunked

Holy wow thats some pop!

Mr.Nice Guy

Dunno if this belongs in the unpopular opinions thread or not but I'm getting mighty sick of AJ at this stage.

J. Marston

Am I the only who hates soppy love angles in the WWE?

BohsJohnny

Professional Griefer

dafuq...

Mr.Nice Guy

Shame we can't see these two wrestle instead of being in this goofy soap opera crap.

J. Marston

I've sat through little people's court, Big Dick Johnson dancing and numerous other embarrassing segments but Christ, this is cringey on a whole new level.

Professional Griefer

His mouth says no, but his shirt says yes yes yes....

:P

J. Marston

I'm expecting Phil Mitchell to come down the ramp any second.

Mr.Nice Guy

Tempted to turn this off.

RobbingBandit

There are matches tonight that will get less time than this ****e.

Dean820

2012 WWE - Your world and WWE Champions look like geeks.

CMpunked

POSSY

Just turned it off... 20 minutes to destroy a good angle and a potentially great feud, well done creative! It can only get worse if she's runs off with the computer and says she's marrying it!

RobbingBandit

Poor Swagger poor, poor Swagger.:(

BohsJohnny

But Seriously how bad is wwe at the moment and they wonder why people aren't buying ppvs and watching raw and they turn out ****e like this.

CMpunked

Who's this guy?

BohsJohnny

just seen this from lance storm on twitter sums everything up.

My daughter just made a great observation. "I thought this was supposed to be about wrestling"

Eire-Dearg

Lol, Kane and Cena teaming up later.

B.A._Baracus

Man,
I really really wanna enjoy wrestling again. Watching it all my life sure.

But... its just too hard. WWE sucks.

Ridley

Well I voted no but I don't think it'll do much good, Cole.

Thank God there is TNA.


And i'm not even taking the piss!

RobbingBandit

Vote NO or die of bordum watching this **** match.

Dean820

TNA is actually looking promising again. WWE has been on a bad run for months now.

B.A._Baracus

... and Drew doesnt even get an entrance.

Future endevored?

Ridley

Jericho has forgotten the GM's IP address!

Eire-Dearg

I miss Destination X.

J. Marston

Ah, when wrestling was good.

B.A._Baracus

"social media ambassador" :pac:

I've heard it all now. Lol.

RobbingBandit

Mister Kennedy didn't.

deafroadrunner

Shes quite the woman aright

Personally, I dont know why I am watching this. Almost like I am waiting around before going to bed :pac:

But I guess I have an interest in who will be the returning 'superstar' this week. Reports saying its

Bob Backlund

. Beyond that I honestly couldn't care.

Raw has been pretty good the prior two weeks

Professional Griefer

Want to turn it off, but I do wanna hear One Man Band again.

bobby_says_hi

that was one of the most insane openings to Raw ever. too bad Cena had to cut a redundant promo before his tag match and clog up the rest of the night's time
