For an episode that was prerecorded, I would've expected this episode to be better edited but there was a lot of dead air and that whole thing about the tag title match being announced

I hope the live crowd weren't that dead for Asuka. Jesus it was like a funeral.
I did laugh at Balor doing the dive on Joe & one of the security guys who bumped got up before Finn did :pac:

Was this match announced since it's mentioned on the Survivor Series wiki page as taking place on tonight's Raw? Though the source is 411mania

Bayley vs Dana vs Mickie for the final spot

I'll laugh if Bayley loses, giving her multiple opportunities to join the team yet fail is making her look like an utter dweeb.

Which is fitting for the character, and how they've been handled overall.

J. Marston · 13-11-2017 05:25PM

She's already an unredeemable dweeb for me. That kendo stick nonsense killed her.

Big online rumours that Paige is back tonight and ends up been the 5th member of the SS Team

Should be a story of one woman really: Asuka. Putting Paige in there dilutes her impact. If it was up to me Paige would be in and I'd find something else for Asuka to do. I don't think Asuka not being in the team makes her look weak at all, if anything it suits what should be all about; a one woman wrecking machine that doesn't play nice with others.

Lord TSC · 13-11-2017 06:18PM

Auska is such an easy character to write at SvS.

It should come down to three on one vs Auska, and she dismantles the three and walks out sole survivor.

Lithium93_ · 13-11-2017 08:46PM

Paige

spotted in Atlanta, Georgia.

PTH2009 · 14-11-2017 02:04AM

Stephanie is back

J. Marston · 14-11-2017 02:05AM

Go away, Stephanie.

Go away forever.

johnnysmack · 14-11-2017 02:17AM

What's wrong with kurts legs, he never looks like he's standing up straight? His legs are always bent, some past injury?

J. Marston · 14-11-2017 02:26AM

Looks like no Paige. Thought she'd be in this.

johnnysmack · 14-11-2017 04:35AM

HHH looking like obediah stane from the first iron man movie!

DM_7 · 14-11-2017 09:33AM

What will the winning team of the 5 v 5 mens bout get as a prize at Survivor Series?

Hip replacements?

Lord TSC · 14-11-2017 09:45AM

People are going to complain bout HHH

I don't care. That five vs five looks incredible with the additions of Cena and Hunter to the mix. It's going to get fourth minutes and it's going to be an incredible match.

That, New Day/Shield, and Styles vs Brock.....I am utterly hyped for this show.

I wish. She's unbelievably annoying, and almost never gets her comeuppance. I could deal with her being annoying if she let people get one over on her from time to time, but she never lets that happen.

Agent Coulson · 14-11-2017 10:38AM

Just watching now and Kurt really doesn't healthy at all to me standing in that ring maybe it's a bad suit but his posture looks so bad.

He standing like an S shape with a bent spine.

Heyman kills it.

14-11-2017 11:42AM

Bray Wyatt is trash now, moving to the red brand killed him.

This whole Jason Jordan experiment hasn't worked at all. Crowd never took to him at all. Looks like the whining gimmick is next for him. Paul adds serious and much needed star power to Team Raw in all fairness.

Dying for this weekend's action, both cards.

As time has gone on, it increasingly looks like when they were doing Jordan's storyline they thought of nothing beyond "he's Kurt's son now".

Furious-Red · 14-11-2017 12:25PM

Yea i noticed the way Kurt was standing and the way his knees were it looked like he was so uncomfortable and he really should not be wrestling. I can see Angle going out quick with everyone going "OMG Team Raw's captain has just been eliminated"

AJ is 40 too.

Seems like 35-40 are the prime years for male wrestlers.

Always Be Closing · 14-11-2017 02:22PM

Jordan is basically Rocky Maivia before he turned into The Rock

Crowd will absolute destroy him. X Pac heat 101

Just watching it back now, and I think he might have been using an old trick that used to be used for back-stage interviews. I think even Michael Cole used to do it. You take a wider stance and slightly bend your knees to make the other guy look bigger and more important/intimidating.

At least, I hope that's what he was doing.

He's Rocky Maivia alright, but without an ounce of his charisma or in ring talent.

The Sean Waltman heat will follow him no matter what he does now

J. Marston · 14-11-2017 02:47PM

It was such a stupid storyline to give him. Nobody could have succeeded with it.

Wrestling fans are willing to suspend disbelief more than anyone so when you really try to insult their intelligence, they let it be known. I don't think crowds have a problem with Jordan but anytime he's on screen now, they're reminded of that stupid storyline and take it out on him.

They could've achieved the same thing by just making him Angle's protégé.
