Sasha will kill herself someday she is a botch away from landing on her neck the wrong way.

A Rogue Hobo · 30-01-2018 04:48AM

Sasha vs Asuka was a cracking match but I agree Sasha is scary reckless at times, both in how she bumps and how she treats her counterparts too. The double knees off the top towards the end also made me cringe a little bit with how Asukas head bounced off the mat.

Looks like the beach ball is back and getting more attention than Cena and Finn’s match.

martyos121 · 30-01-2018 05:00AM

It’d be nice if the power went in the arena just now, these smarks don’t deserve shît. You get a proper main event and still toss around a beach ball. Twats.

A Rogue Hobo · 30-01-2018 05:08AM

What exactly was the point of Gallows and Anderson coming out before the match only to go to the back again straight away?

Agent Coulson · 30-01-2018 05:08AM

They seriously need to stop close ups on Cena matches as he keeps getting caught calling spots way to often.

Super AA to beat Finn at least.

martyos121 · 30-01-2018 05:09AM

Cena wins LOL.

In fairness it's the third night in a row in the same city, probably a lot of fans who've been to all 3 shows. Not surprising that there is some audience fatigue at the end of a by-the-numbers Raw.

There was enough dullness during the rest of the show to be at that crap. What puzzles me is how so many of those fans would be clamouring for Balor to be pushed as a main eventer and this is the respect they show him. It’s just something that pisses me off way more than it should, especially during a high-profile match like that.

Oul John boy getting riled up by the boos again, must be going somewhere.

Are we finally getting the heel turn? Maybe they’re heeling him up and have him face taker now they’ve given us the Cena Finn Match.

Burned through Raw in 20 minutes.

Pretty bad follow up to what I felt was an incredible PPV, but thats WWE in a nutshell....

ERG89 · 30-01-2018 11:46AM

The beachball appearing in a Cena match is quite apt as he seemed quite supportive of it in the past.
But it just makes everyone look bad

All it'll do in Vince's mind is add fuel to the fire that Finn isn't over.

showpony1 · 30-01-2018 12:45PM

I was wondering what the point of them pushing Balor's strong showing in the rumble was when knew they'd do something like this.

I imagine they'll have to build to a Demon match now at mania which is a gimmick they've still kept strong as if the clean losses normal Finn take don't matter when the Demon is involved. Hard to see how that fits in with the Balor Club thing though.

I think he'll probably work with Miz now; which could be better than taking a pin and setting up very little in the chamber match.

I’d like the idea of him working with Miz at WrestleMania actually. If he wrestles as the demon, he’d have to absolutely obliterate him though to keep the gimmick as protected as it is. It wouldn’t hurt Miz too much because he can always talk his way back up the card.

Anyone watch the WWE 24 on WM last year? Decent in parts, lots of out of character Taker. He appears to be done.

Shows his limping about heavily backstage before the match and he mentioned all the injuries he has.

I usually like the 24s but found this one very boring apart from the few minutes of Undertaker and the Hardy boys stuff.

krustydoyle · 30-01-2018 04:04PM

I generally watch the best of videos on youtube.. Its handy when you can't stay up for monday nights

paulie21 · 30-01-2018 04:47PM

I didn't get the big fuss over Braun throwing the announce table over Kane. It was a Last Man Standing match ffs so anything goes.

I stayed up to watch Raw last night thinking it would be great with the post-Rumble crowd. I really regret it.

They spent the whole night talking about Braun and ignored what was happening right in front of them in the ring. The cuts between camera angles were dizzying, bordering on nauseating. They went to ad-breaks during wrestlers' entrances and came back with the matches already started. It's just awful production.

After the great shows on Saturday and Sunday nights it was hard to believe I was watching the same product.

Didn't get it either. No reason Kane can't stand up after the announce table missed him by a mile and a soft black cloth gently fell on him instead. My cat, whos a lot smaller than Kane, can easily escape when I throw a tea towel on his head.

SlickRic · 30-01-2018 04:57PM

they're going to fatigue me with Braun soon. same shít all the time. i still like him, but i can see the honeymoon ending soon. also Graves coming out with a mic to ask him 'what have you done?' was classic WWE fúcking nonsense.

no follow up on Rousey was moronic.

John Cena wins LOL.

Reigns losing was fine, though the sheer amount of interference that was needed was a bit off. meh, it was what it was.

Steph needs to get the fúck away from the women. it makes me so fúcking irrationally angry when I watch her make sure we all know that this 'revolution' was because of her, and that she's in charge of it. fúck off.

such a terrible follow up to a Royal Rumble that so many people were excited by. WWE never cease to amaze me with how stupid and lazy they can be.

Gallows has painted his face before as well don't forget!

PTH2009 · 30-01-2018 06:13PM

so we have a heelish frustrated John Cena now

CastorTroy · 30-01-2018 08:30PM

When was the last time Cena had to earn a title match, never mind earn a number 1 contender spot?

And they did the women's Chamber announcement like I didn't want them to. And no qualifiers there, since not enough women

Rock Lesnar · 30-01-2018 08:41PM

Like i said last week, Strowman can destroy everything and everybody between ppv's but doesnt get the job done on the big shows, i like the character but im bored of him now doing the same nonsense every week

Lithium93_ · 30-01-2018 08:44PM

Can we just give SlicRic the Best Rant Award already?

Not even February yet :pac:
