MORELOCK Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 They should make an effort to dress Brie up in more young girl clothes and stuff like pigtails so they can maximize the physical contrast between her and Stephanie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbie Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Last week (?) people were debating what needs to be done for the divas to change people's perception of them. I thought everyone was wrong. The divas need have more interactions with the men. If the divas are supposed to be hot, great to be around, and everyone wants to be them and/or with them, why don't most of the WWE Superstars avoid them like the plague? What woman in the WWE has EVER gotten over by just being a diva who fights the other divas? I love that Brie is officially becoming a lesser, female version of DB. I just wish her naturally sweet side she shows on TD would come out more on Raw. I thought Brie out worked Paige in that match. Or maybe it's the lame screaming Paige does that makes me think less of her. Is she anti-Diva because she has Tourette's? Then again, Brie does the same "scream then hit a move" thing and no one praises her. DB busting out a fucking monkey wrench had me rolling. BEST WEAPON EVER. The segments was good too. Can't wait til Brie dropkicks Kane, making him stumble around before a big running knee by DB. RVD is terrible and I was so satisfied with Wade calling him past his primed and the way Wade fucking smashed his face in was brutal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Personally I think if you didn't like the opening sequence, then you're just too cool for wrestling. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait til Brie dropkicks Kane, making him stumble around before a big running knee by DB. I have a memory of being at a live Raw in Indianapolis many years ago. It was the same Raw where Foley and Funk got pushed off the stage in the dumpster. And there was a segment with Kane and Vader involving a giant wrench. I believe it was Kane braining Vader with it. Karma, bro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbie Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 DB looks like the typical lumberjack. If an axe is too violent, let him carry a monkey wrench around. "WOMAN! GIVE ME MY WRENCH!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 since Linda isn't running for the Senate at the moment, DBry could use a wrench to aid his application of the Yes Lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Cibernetico Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 RVD is just depressing to watch. I am convinced his employment is just one big troll against TNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Kind of a dull show, but I liked the ending segment a lot. The way they teased another tedious HHH beatdown, only for The Shield to make a worthwhile comeback but still having HHH escape the triple powerbomb for the second time was perfectly laid out. Also got The Shield a nice pop after several minutes of lukewarm reactions. If Flair "turns" on the Shield at ER, that would be about the lamest thing ever. They do, however, have a perfect chance to turn a common wrestling trope around with Flair trying to cost The Shield, but they take him out easily en route to victory. If you're trying to establish The Shield as badasses, the last thing they need is having to do a job because a 70-year-old man hit one of them.

Brian Fowler Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 He's got the Cenation, in his hands He's got the whole Cenation, in his hands He's got the Cenation, in his hands He's got the whole wide world, in his hands HOLY CHRIST, man. This feud just needs one great match at ER to go down as absolutely legendary. There hasn't been character work this good in pro wrestling since... Shit, Foley's anti-hardcore stuff? And Cena's later promo was great. He's rattled. He started it being obviously shaken, then started to segued into his usual jokey bullshit, only to come back around to his old "Terminator Cena" violent threat serious stuff. That right there was really good. But BRAY FUCKING WYATT. He's got the whole world, in his hands. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Oh, and I was trying to remember the details of Kane/Vader/Giant fucking wrench while I was watching the show, so thanks for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird, now that I look it up, reports say it took place at the No Way Out PPV in 98. So why the hell do I swear I have a recollection of seeing it live at Raw? Weird.

I remember Mankind hitting Kane with a wrench. It was shown in the video package for Kane vs. Mankind at Survivor Series 1997. Great opening segment.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I try to cut Brie some slack because I like her but the way she delivered that "bitch!" line was like she took acting lessons from Chris KATTAN. Slight edit for accuracy. I now want to see the Bellas repackaged w/ characters like Will Farrell and Chris Kattan in Night at the Roxbury.

The Z Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 For anyone who was wondering, I did the math. Rob van Dam last held the Intercontinental Championship in 2006. Wade Barrett was born in 1980. So there you have it, Wade Barrett was wearing diapers, when he was 26 years old. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenalysis Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I wonder if that injury was legit and caused some of that. Didn't make sense to have an injury angle there, and it did look like he landed awkwardly. Also no work on the leg , if it was part of the match- they would have done some legwork. (This is kinda bad on all four of them though- they should all know better) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhammedboehm Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Kane can always kidnap Nicki Bella and make her his wife.. Ugh. That would be like aiming for Eva Gabor and getting Zsa Zsa. but Nicky as the evil Bella also opens the door to a skit where she goes undercover and Bryan doesn't realize he's with the evil Bella now Because Bryan can't tell that his wife went from an a cup to a d cup over night? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Flair didn't seem drunk at all. I'm not sure if some of you have ever been drunk. He did look like a punch drunk old man out there doing his shtick, though, which is exactly what he is. I'm assuming he turns on The Shield this weekend, leading to a ton of people fantasy booking Sting, who never shows. I've been drunk. Flair seemed drunk. I was at Raw tonight. The crowd seemed into it for the most part, but they weren't loud at all. It was like an arena filled with thousands of shy kids who were watching intently, but quietly, scared that the cool kids would make fun of them if they cheered for the wrong person. I don't know how it came off on TV, but it was fun. Terrible. It came off terrible. I blame you. (kidding) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 My take on last night's RAW: Opening segment was GOLD! This is Kevin Sullivan with a budget. The children, the last fans Cena has, turning on him and embracing the evil from the swamp. If only we weren't in this bloodless era, Cena could beat Bray bloody and have a laughing Wyatt tell him that's what he wanted, laughing while covered in his own juice. Magneto jammies....cute for the kiddies in the audience. WAY too long for what it was. I mirror the sentiments of the earlier poster who was lamenting the new death of the tag division. So we now have the Uso's, Rybaxel, and Los Matidores? Wow...depth. Get Swagger a new partner and continue the Real Americans at the very least. What are they doing with Cesaro? Whatever it is, it's not working. The crowd wants to love him or hate him and they'll gladly do either. His push is floundering from the fan perspective. Heyman on the mic is fucking golden but seriously, pick a direction and move towards it. "Look, it's funny because they are little people dressed in costumes!" Nope.....not my cup of tea. My burgeoning man crush on Bad News Barret is growing. Assuming he can stay healthy, he is money in the main event scene and sooner than later. Oh, and RVD...go home. So, when he puts on the mask with the wig on it, he becomes some sort of supernatural under-the-ring rape demon? Sorry, I've never bought the demon schtick. The sooner the Kane/Bryan thing is over, the better. I'm still digging Paige. The Shield vs. Evolution is falling flat and it's not because of the Shield. I think, once again, HHH has overestimated the amount of "reverence" his legacy actually carries. If everyone is into it, you can act like it's epic and it is. If everyone isn't into it and you act like it's epic, it's pretentious. The Shield needs to crush them on Sunday and be done with it. This feud does nothing if it drags out. The Shield needs to look unstoppable. That means that Evolution getting their asses handed to them is "best for business." And yes, Ric was drunk and it's hard to watch. Please, stop putting him on tv. Right now, the best thing the WWE can do for him is stand by to help with rehab or funeral costs. I've seen this movie before and I know how it ends. I'm sure other shit happened but I didn't care. Overall it was a three hour show that I enjoyed about 40 minutes of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
