Yeah, I stopped marking out over the old school wrestler references around promo number 3...he's going to run out of names soon...lol
He's a heck of a speaker though, can't blame all his fans for enjoying it...I'm a fan myself.
Just watched the Jericho thing....hey, I'm just ready to see him wrestle...Comment

Good Raw. Probably the best of the year so far. The evolution of Johnny Ace is something I didn't expect and is a pleasant surprise.
Jericho's schitck was the best so far.
Punk's promo was good, not great though. Just my opinion.
main event was awesome. Some great wrestling by Punk, Bryan, and Ziggler, but should we expect any less? These guys are incredible.
Ace taking out his frustrations on Foley is a nice metaphor for him being the actual bully who even doesn't realize it.
Really like Primo and Epico. Oh and Rosa is ok.
Thank God the divas match was only about 5 minutes.
Swaggs winning the title was a good thing imo. Start of what could be a good feud for him and Ryder. Keeps the title relevant.
Cena is embracing the hate. Unfortunately I feel it will end with him having a catharsis about how wrong he was and finally send Kane back to Hell.
And by God do I love me some Funkasaurus.Comment

Just got home. It was a blast, I know fiancee was shown at least once on TV.
For clarification the you can't wrestle chant was for Otunga. It was weird because I'm not sure how it fit into the tapings. Bryan did his thing. Jericho came out. The heel team followed. After otungas music finished Jericho has his hit again and ran around. I got confused for a minute but it was funny.
Superstars matches before were OK. We walked to our seats so I only caught the celebration. Mason Ryan and Santino vs Tyler Reeks and someone. Santino got the W.
Next up was ARy vs Jinder. Camel clutch ftw.
After the show Cena fought Kane. Good match, Cena took a chair to the stomach for a dq win. Kane walked up the ramp but came back down. Cena hit the AA. During the match, they had a little sequence of teasing finishers. It was pretty good.

its not that I didn't know him, we just walked to our seats as the match was ending. I didn't get to see who it was, but ryan and santino celebrated for a few minutes - and I saw Reks goofy self walking out before he got away.
Possibly ryback. Isn't that skip Sheffield?

Nah man...Punkster only does it for matches haha
She's hot period.
I absolutely love these Star Wars references.
hahahah
To quote Ron Simmons....DAMN!....(I really miss the APA)
the only good thing about her.
Um....
And he didn't have passion in the shoot?!
and as a Rams fan, he has done like the big eye black triangles.
Yeah, I stopped marking out over the old school wrestler references around promo number 3...he's going to run out of names soon...lol

Just watched the Jericho thing....hey, I'm just ready to see him wrestle...
As for Raw...top to bottom...with a little segment in the middle excluded...it was an exceptional show.
Funkman and Punkster really brought it tonight.
Jericho continued his awesome act. Exactly what I wanted to happen.
Cena. YES!!!!
Rosa Mendes. Si Si!!!
Although I don't really get why the took the strap off of Z?...obviously he's not getting over as much as he once was. Unfortunately my guess is Z! TLIS is coming to an end soonI really can't believe it's been almost 10 months since that started!!!!
Really though, just an overall good show.
I'm also really surprised people on here (unless they are little jimmies) don't know Animal being Ace's brother, and James the linebacker being Animal's kid...thought people would be more up on their history...oh well.Last edited by BDKiiing; 01-17-2012, 01:12 AM.St. Louis Cardinals | Milwaukee Bucks | Los Angeles Rams

Cool story, real quick. I got to meet Joe and James Laurinaitis at my sisters graduation at OSU. James was graduating that day as well. I took some pics with James and my sister along with Brian Robiskie. Joe was a class act as well. Treated everyone who recognized him well.Comment

RAW was soooooo good tonight. Surprised by how hot the crowd was from the start, but everyone brought it on the mic and in the ring tonight so it was justified.
I even could stand the Perez Hilton nonsense because the rest of the show was so great. So I'll make a deal with you WWE, you can pull that Snooki/Perez/random celebrity nonsense if you give me entire shows like that more often than not.
Also, can't decide who had line of the night.
"I hope daddy didn't eat our lunches again."
"She told me she loved me, and I appreciate that."
"I don't even know if that's PG!"
It also seems like almost every wrestler has positive momentum (sans Kofi and Bourne as I don't see them staying together if Bourne is going to continue to be punished, which is a bummer because it seemed like this was finally a team that would stay together long term.)
You might also make the case for Ryder, but he's been getting less support from the crowd -- I think because he's associating too much with Cena. I think if Ryder separates again and just gets into this Swagger feud he'll be fine again. It also might just be a flaw that occurs with plenty of faces. He's great chasing and as the guy not being appreciated, but as soon as he makes it, people start to like him less because he's not really the renegade/underdog type anymore that's easy to cheer for. Plus, I just think he'll be cheered more on the east coast and less everywhere else by default.I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update).

Probably because I'm so damn in the tank for R-Truth, but I have to give his "I don't even know if that's PG!" the line of the night award.
Though Bryan's is a close second.Member: OS Uni Snob Association | Twitter: @MyNameIsJesseG | #WT4M | #WatchTheWorldBurn

I will say I went in not fully knowing what the crowd would be like, and actually expecting the worst (SoCal isn't known for their crowds.)
I came out pleasantly surprised, and thoroughly impressed with my neighbors and they way they cheered.
Feb 13th can't come fast enough. 2nd row seats ringside, on the side the camera doesn't face (bottom of the screen.)

Tap'd in from the GNexAnd I watched the whole thing on YouTube when I got home. Thing is, this show just looked like it was better on TV than person. I mean, as a Jerichoholic myself, I'd be pretty pissed in person if he didn't wrestle. On TV, however, I think the trolling is great. Get it? And, I'm not a fan of seeing the same superstars over and over in matches... Shows a weak talent roster. Show feels incomplete without Mysterio, Del Rio, RKO, Nash, HHH, etc.
OK, I'm really just trying to talk myself into being happy I didn't go. I know the show was goodComment

Here's how I see it playing out...
Shenanigans happen in Ziggler/Punk and Punk is being screwed left and right. Somehow Big Johnny gets knocked out and Punk hits the GTS on Ziggler. Foley comes down and makes the count for the three.
Laurinitis comes to and is wondering what the hell happened. Next night on Raw Laurinitis comes out saying that wasn't a legal match/yadda yadda. Foley comes out says that, indeed, it was a legal match because he was the Anonymous GM and, technically, was never fired.

The 13th is another RAW. Its down at the Valley View arena or whatever they have down there.
Its after RR so I'm of the belief that Jericho will be speaking and in full heel mode. Fiance will be happy since Blandy Borton Bot 3000 should be back in action.
I also would support the scenario above. Especially now that Johnny Ace has come into his own out there. I'd rather them not bring up the anon GM again but if they do it they do it.
