    Yes and hopefully the last.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,250 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Didn't we just have a singles one at NXT UK between Tyler and Devlin?

    And since Show has a knockout punch, all he needs is 3 at most

    R Truth is awesome.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,956 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Even if he’s joining to be the guy in the group that gets pinned, Murphy joining the main event stable is awesome news. He will get a tone of exposure, fight so,e top level people, and potentially get a big baby face turn down the road. Way, way better than doing nothing.

    Brock and Truth segment was fun. Crowd was fantastic for it too.

    Drew looks a beast and is a dark horse for the Rumble.

    And Kevin Owens can fly now, so that’s cool too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Truth is brilliant

    hard to believe heyman is only like 5 years older than him

    really like murphy joining rollins hopefully it turns into something good with him

    such a cool spot with KO too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,773 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Sounded a good raw, didnt watch it yet myself but plan to later

    I would of loved for Joe to join Seth's gang but obv not now. Could work out brilliant for Murphy

    No big show heel turn ??

    Buddy Murphys feud with Black has been great in hindsight, not that I didnt enjoy it. Both men looked strong throughout but after the latest loss, I felt for Murphy. But now the losses mean something and the perfect segway for him to join up with Rollins and AOP. Delighted for him. The rubb from Rollins will do he and AOP on harm what so ever.

    Truth saved a predictable Brock segment. Comedy done right.

    Drew may be a dark horse, but Id give him more of a chance than that. Hes been booked strong in recent weeks after shovel month after month of strong losses. I can see him getting the Diesel/Kane/Roman role in Rumble (though with Brock at number 1 Im not so sure).

    I'm done with Lane/Rusev/Lashley..... I indulged it for weeks but its finally jumped the shark for me post wedding. Couldnt care less. Many stars have looked great in Raws last few months, Rey, Andrade, Black, Murphy, Joe, Raiders, etc..... but Rusev and Lashley are the opposite despite being heavily featured. Thins angle has done them no real favours.

    Beckys promo post match didnt work for me..... just sounded like nonsense. Asuka is great though and Ive no doubt these will do a good job when its all said and done.

    The Truth segment was great. Liked the Brawl at the end not much of a fist fight but who's complaining. Owens running up the ramp was class and glad to see Murphy being used and added to the stable. Ladder match next week should be pretty great but I wonder if we'll have shenanigans, seems weird to have a ladder title match less than a week before the Rumble.

    I love the booking of Drew lately, they've wasted him the last while. Don't see him winning the Rumble, would love to see him eliminate Brock though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,250 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Glad to see Murphy doing well. Wasn't a massive fan when he was in NXT but when he came to 205, he was one of the best things on that show. when the feud started with Black, I thought it was going to be some throwaway match but they've both been able to show what they can do.
    I assume Black will help Joe & Co.

    So is there anyone online that translates what Asuka and Kairi say?

    She says "baka" a lot which I'm sure means idiot so it's nothing pleasant!

    Anyway, Kairi was the real star of that segment...

    Asuka putting the mist in while Kairi distracts. Teamwork.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,250 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Becky, ya big bully!

    Yeah, I heard Baka repeatedly and know that one as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,732 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    R Truth is awesome.

    It is a shame he never got a world title reign

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,105 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Its a nice change that they are actually promoting what will happen next week on their shows at the moment. Advertising the US title ladder match for example which is something I actually want to see. Similarly it's been a while since there has been an ending angle that has made me want to see what happens next week but I am genuinely interested in Buddy and this new stable. Are the WWE actually trying to build a new star / give someone a good push with this stable? Drew too, being given a win over AJ/Orton is great to see and hopefully it is a sustained push for him too.

    Rumble on the horizon and the company suddenly get their act together, who woulda thunk it!

    Hes a hell of a hand but hes no top star.

    I wonder who decided 'Ah sure Seth Rollins looks like jesus, so lets give him a Messiah gimmick' or someone just saw Messiah on netflix

    He's been called Crossfit Jesus for about 5 years now


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,729 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    That was one of the best RAWs I can remember watching in a long long time.

    Really good and Truth was brilliant.

    Also Rollins as the messiah is very SES and made me think of a lead into a CM Punk bout?

    Still can’t see Punk coming back. Even with the Fox deal he seems so bitter with wwe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,857 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Punk is like a shy schoolgirl to me. He never will ask them to come back but he wants WWE to come to him and make him an offer that he can't refuse.

    I think, he thinks that he will wait them out. He thinks they will blink first if the ratings go really low.

    His pride would never let him ask them to come back

    I know I say it every year, but Will we get the "every one in the ring, throwing people over" bit tonight or Friday? Women tonight and men on Friday or vice versa?

    Yeah and whoever's is standing strong at the end of it is not going to win it

    There’s an actual tag team in the faction but they rather give it to the two randomers
