RAW #1011 (8-10-12) / Dolph & Schwarzenegger

CMpunked

Soon after, Arnold thanked the cocky Superstar with this message:

@Schwarzenegger:
Good luck with that and enjoy the book @HEELZiggler. Appreciate the support.
Cordial enough, right? But Mr. Money in the Bank wasn't quite as well-mannered in his response:

@HEELZiggler:
@Schwarzenegger hah relax brother, i don’t need luck & im not a fan, just a heads up, im on my way to being a much bigger STAR than you!

Whoa! Strong words considering the former chief executive of California was named the World Box Office Champion by Mr. McMahon 13 years ago on SmackDown (WATCH ARNOLD). Apparently the T-101 felt the same way and chimed in appropriately:

@Schwarzenegger:
@HEELZiggler It's going to take more than reading my book. You better memorize it. Then do curls with it. Then you'll be 1% of the way there

Mr. Money in the Bank wasn't phased. He continued to taunt the Hollywood legend with these words:

@HEELZiggler:
@Schwarzenegger whatevs! Youre living in the past! #OldNews IM the future & wrestling is like, the 5th best thing i do! SHOW-OFF

But the man who claims he will "steal your girlfriend" (GET THE HOT SHIRT) didn't realize he'd just delivered some more ammunition to his new rival:

@Schwarzenegger:
@HEELZiggler I'd hate to see 1st-4th best things. You're right, you are the Show Off. Every time I see you I turn the show off.

Major zinger from the one and only Kindergarten Cop! But Ziggler needs to keep in mind -- this isn't Conan O'Brien, it's Conan the Barbarian! And yet, further antagonizing:

@HEELZiggler:
@Schwarzenegger good one, NOT! you & the whole world can watch what i do @WWE #MondayNightRaw I STEAL THE SHOW...& you know the rest


Will The Showoff reveal when he plans to cash in this Monday on Raw? Will Schwarzenegger respond to Ziggler's latest tweet? Will Mr. Money in the Bank learn anything from Arnold's new book, "Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story"?

Wonder will Arnie show up for around mania time.

If that isnt a set up, Ziggler got his ass handed to him!

Machismo Fan

That show off zinger is fantastic.

It is. Unlike Ziggler's 'Not' response. Someone needs to tell Dolph that one got old in the nineties!

takamichinoku

Schwarzenagger beat him pretty well there, but it's probably still pretty good anyway.


It's probably just me, but Hogan almost sounds like a normal person there, a normal person trapped in a seriously f*cked up life, mind.

J. Marston

You're right, you are the Show Off. Every time I see you I turn the show off.

Diabhal Beag

That was a sick burn alright.

rovert

Looked like a work.

Stereomaniac

So will Arnie end up in a movie with Dolph or something, what do people think is gonna happen?

xpletiv

He been confirmed since as the Social Ambassador to either a Raw show or some PPV...

An apology for Jingle All the Way and for rte constantly repeating Junior and Twins. Or is that too much to ask?

2.Tag Team tournament continues
3.Punk vs Ryback?
4. Arnold Schwarzenegger is the "Social Media Ambassador"
5. Mr.McMahon will deliver (Yet Another) State of the WWE address!

JP Liz V1

Arnie to release a sex tape of him and Vickie

Schwarzeneggar as Social Media Ambassador would be nice if it wasn't for the fact they always tweet bland support of the faces. Larry King last week was embarrassing, I doubt he even wrote any of the tweets, suprised if he even watched Raw. It's good advertising for WWE but would be good if celebrities actually said something interesting.

Frankie Boyle for WWE Social Media Ambassador.

Anyone think we might see Cena as guest referee for Punk/Ryback at Hell In a Cell?

the groutch

sorry CMpunked, but gotta be said that may be the worst thread merge ever.

J. Marston

Such was the clusterfúck of bolloxology last week, I'm actually looking forward to Cena tonight.

jaykhunter

I merged the thread from off-topic, aim your rotten tomatoes this way. It's also no coincidence this back & forth came up a few days prior to tonight's RAW, so it's relevant.

I done nothing! I was as surprised as you! :pac:


Wwe are pulling out the big guns tonight in the form of mcmahon, i hope he 'shakes things up again!'

gnfnrhead

Shake things up by rehiring Big Johnny maybe?

Two babyface authority figures dont work. One needs to be a heel. I wouldnt mind AJ being given a shot as a heel, but Big Johnny is tried and tested. Heyman would be good but will never happen due to Triple H. In kayfabe land he would never allow that given their recent history.

I don't know if you saw RAW last week but AJ apologised for her actions towards Kaitlyn then laughed at her as it was a joke. So maybe a heel run for AJ is on the cards.

A major nee historic change in WWE:

Major fallout before Raw



Vince McMahon was not in a good mood this afternoon to say the least. Brian Gewirtz after a decade plus was removed as head writer of Raw. He is still under contract as a consultant.

Everyone is scared. Vince told the producers today, "I want results or I want resignations."

He is credited for writing Rock's comedy back in the day and Cena's current day "comedy."

sorry, keep forgetting you don't mod this forum

GTR63

Hmmm can't help but wonder if thats a HHH decision?
A bit off topic but they said last night on Wrestletalk tv(I know not a great source) that Triple H would be getting even more control this month onwards, don't know where they heard that but can't remember hearing it myself. Is it true or BS?

Could be right but I haven't heard anything to that effect.

I would guess this is a USA network decision. You know when a series starts dipping in ratings they bring in new writers to freshen things up.

Just remembered this guy is on the free market:


:P

Any chance this is a work?...

Brian will never be an on screen character and way too inside. So no.

jaykhunter

Remember when Russo was re-hired by WWE for a wet day? Was it "creative consultant" post that he turned down?

MrKingsley

I suppose the upshot of this rubbish is at least that its gotten out of the way early in the show

ricero

Feed me more !!!

MrKingsley

Really warming to ryback.

That was a useful start. Also helps that he cut cenas exit short

CMpunked

Wonder will tonight's raw have little to no promos owing to the gerwitz situation.

IanMc666

Micheal sounds like a duck when he laughs, I cannot stress this enough.

Show Time

Nice one Vince to save the show.

Did he only get the chop today as head writer ?

Sorry i was referring to the crap cena was spouting as rubbish. Nothing to do with any hirings or firings

RobbingBandit

Love the new shirt.

CMpunked

Ha. Vince makes fun of his own companies merchandise.

MAJR

This is a quick way to get fired by Mr. McMahon.

Show Time

If he was ten years younger Vince would deck him.

MAJR

Vince from the 90's would never stand for this. And Vince now wont. Vince vs. Punk? I'm calling it now. Cena run in.

ah well, that's happening anyway seemingly...

Surprised there was no mention of Heyman and Vince's history and Heymans stance is quite confusing.

Show Time

This is worth staying up for i feel.

PucaMama

Talk about overselling a slap. LOL

Punk's t-shirt is just like he's been for the last number of weeks: golden.

ricero

Holy **** ! Holy **** ! Holy **** !
