RAW LD 1/25/2016 - IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[rbv13]

Tonight is about impressing The Authority. Maybe one of seven Divas involved tonight between two matches will main event Fast Lane. Sasha vs. Miz w/Bo Dallas spitting some sick rhymes on play by play.

 

[Reflection]

Each time the Lu-cha! Lu-cha! thing starts, Kalisto instinctively stops doing whatever he's doing and starts playing to it. That's a major weakness in the long run, fellas.

 

[BaconBits]

been a fun show, but storyline wise, nothing much has really happened tonight thus far...

To be fair, Brock isn't here, and more will become clear with Roman in the main event tonight.

 

[L@RISANO]

Fair enough. Nothing else has been setup either, unless you count Charlotte's botched? attack on Becky and Sasha...

 

[J.J.]

Miz really plays a convincing heel.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

How can one of WWE's best heels be a jobber?

I have zero fucks to give about Charlotte, so I don't care if they advance her story or not.

So here's my problem with this Raw.

The wrestling has been better tonight because it's all about impressing the Authority. That implies to me that the wrestlers aren't trying as hard as they can every single week and they really can turn it on at a moment's notice. If that's the case, why should I watch if they're not going to give anywhere near their best effort every week?

 

[J.J.]

How can one of WWE's best heels be a jobber?

Probably because he's not marketable in comparison to Kalisto.

 

[Slash-LN]

Miz did a good job of coming across as angry and aggressive.

He should wrestle like that a bit more often.

 

[SD619]

Nice finish...

 

[BaconBits]

Heels lose, and lose often. That doesn't make them jobbers.

I really believe that's more of a management decision. Save their best for Network exclusive material.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

This RAW is nice, but feels like filler. Only the final minutes will have some meaning to drive the story further.

Miz's been irrelevant for years.

This looks like you actively looking for a reason to complain about an otherwise pretty damn good Raw.

That's the key, make you watch so you won't feel like you're missing anything.

Nah it's been good. Just a thing with the storyline of the show.

 

[BaconBits]

Miz's been irrelevant for years.

Not being a main eventer =/= irrelevant.

Exactly. I always hate when this tactic is applied. They are turning it up tonight? Great. Why the fuck was I watching all those other weeks. Am I also to believe that dick head bosses like The Authority don't already have an agenda?

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

So, Roman w/o title = cheered. Roman w/ title = booed?

 

[J.J.]

Ambrose selling his injury like Owens.

 

[J-Dogg]

I do like the league also Dean is doing a good job of selling the injuries

 

[Reflection]

Oh so it's only two guys from League of Nations..

 

[J.J.]

Wade Barrett hasn't had to wash his trunks in weeks.
