It's so Braun will get in an argument with him resulting in a Roman win. Foley using Mr Socko on Braun will keep the fans happy. At least that's probably the plan.

I keep forgetting Seth is IC champ. And after the whole B Team thing they quickly brush them aside just to get the tag titles into Roman's story.

So what game did Nia change that was so significant to get an award nomination?

I know someone was saying in another thread about 205 Live. I'm wondering now why Drew Gulak is coming out with the rest of the heels on Raw and Drake is manager of AoP. Could be they're planning on winding things down for 205?

Speaking of Drake and AoP, with the way he keeps looking at them both while walking in front of them makes me wonder if he's looking for the Way to Amarillo.

Apologies to anyone who now has that song stuck in their head

It's actually WWE Crown Jewel and a triple threat match between Lesnar, Braun and Roman.

The name is apt considering the amount of jewels WWE are getting

With Braun being the wwe Saudi Arabian Champion Will he win the big one there ?

J. Marston · 18-09-2018 01:22AM

Had to laugh at the crowd's total silence for that announcement.

They're still doing the "Brock loves UFC, you should love Roman" shtick.

It takes some doing to book a World title match on Raw that I have less than zero interest in but they did it. Props to WWE.

We all dreamed of what HBK's match would be if he ever came back.

I'd put money on no one thinking "It will be DX vs Brothers of Destruction in Saudi Arabia".

EDIT: I also just realised, this would negate "Last time ever!" immediately....

Lord TSC · 18-09-2018 10:09AM

I will say this though.

I had seen zero of Lio Rush up till now, but thought he looked brilliant on Raw.

I enjoyed him too. Guy is super tiny though, I think he might even be smaller than Rey.

The crowd were dead for him though. He definitely seems more of a heel for me. Elias was brilliant though

If he suits better as a heel then he’ll be one in no time since WWE got to where it has by listening to fans...

CastorTroy · 18-09-2018 05:56PM

He's a heel on 205 Live. That's the guy who annoyed a lot of people when he made a joke at Emma being future endeavoured.

No better way to build your Monster character than by saying "He was so angry, he took to social media". Why not just say he wrote a strongly worded letter?!

"Just go out and issue the open challenge without telling anyone" they say on a backstage scene being broadcast to everyone. And an open challenge with no match
The Bellas aren't going away anytime soon, are they?

While trying to think who Ember's partner could be, Nia didn't even cross my mind. Forgot clean about her, even those she's being nominated for/winning loads of awards for some reason.

So now they're promoting 3 Network specials at the same time. They have enough trouble building one big event.

His size works brilliantly for Lashley though. Being so small will make Lashley look even bigger.

The Shield to open RAW tonight.

Use the hashtag #RomansShieldBuddies

CastorTroy · 24-09-2018 11:15PM

Well it was likely 50/50 between The Shield and Strowman/Drew/Dolph

PTH2009 · 25-09-2018 01:23AM

Vince and triple h are going to be angry as a lot of shots during Finns entrance showed that camera men

Pentecost · 25-09-2018 08:47AM

Oof. Just saw what happened to Liv Morgan, she got kicked full in the face a couple of times. Hopefully she’s ok, sloppy from Brie.

She got taken backstage before the match ended they’re evaluating her for a concussion.

Lord TSC · 25-09-2018 10:28AM

There's a shot of Ruby decking Brie after that too going round.

Brie is bloody dangerous. Whatever blame could be placed on Sarah Logan for one mistimed suicide dive last week, that's now all three members of the Squad Brie has had bad botches with, and that Liv got knocked silly from one is a disgrace. Couple it with the stiff knee to Vega on Smackdown too, and it's painting an image of someone who, if she wasn't married to who she is, would have been pulled from matches already.

SlickRic · 25-09-2018 11:18AM

Brie was, is and will always be shít. I think I ranted about her a couple of weeks ago.

she has absolutely no value.

she's dangerous.
she's a charisma vacuum.
she destroys the appeal of Daniel Bryan.

just kick her out. talentless buffoon.

sky88 · 25-09-2018 11:24AM

i dont think brie has ever really tried to become a better wrestler all she added was a few of bryans moves and she doesnt do them. i actually think nikki did try to be a better wrestler and has become solid. if im remembering right brie was more of the wrestler in their 1st run

and fair fúcks to her.

Angron · 25-09-2018 12:32PM

If they are going to have her wrestle, at the very least stop her doing Bryan's moves. She's nowhere near athletic enough to pull them off, but insisting on trying is just dangerous, both to herself (almost necking herself on suicide dives) and others (KOing Liv).

J. Marston · 25-09-2018 12:45PM

Married to Daniel Bryan, her mother is married to John Laurinaitis and they have that wider appeal with Total Bellas/Divas. She is well dug in and won't receive any punishment.

She's been a shìtshow since she came back but last night was another level. Ruby looked so pissed off with her.

CastorTroy · 25-09-2018 01:03PM

Commentators seemed reluctant to draw attention to Liv Morgan missing. It took them a while to say it after the break. Brie is a disaster and would like Miz to use it, but he probably wouldn't be allowed.
I'm also really sceptical that the Bellas seemed to get the biggest reaction of the night. Please don't tell me they're here for the duration of their new season
