Raw LD: 7/25/2016: There's A New Set! Oh, And The Roster Is Different Too

[@smarkmouth]

"C'mon, I'm right here."

 

[Sean Valjean]

Next Owens will be telling Rusev to use Quick Attack.

 

[rbv13]

I'm pretty Balor wins this. It's the only one that makes sense.

Balor was in the lesser NXT. Sure he had success but has fallen off a bit lately. KO and Cesaro get punked out all the time. Rusev is the hot monster. The Brute could rule the Universe.

 

[BaconBits]

Combined introductions would be forty-five minutes. Thats before the first lock up.

I'm really tired of everybody suggesting Taker vs. (insert "spooky"
character here). What I hope is Taker vs. Kane and they both retire from in ring competition after. One last brothers of destruction salute, and that's it. Neither guy is ever seen in the ring again.

 

[J-Dogg]

Uppercut train time

 

[J-Dogg]

Damn good match

I agree about Rusev. He could absolutely be the top heel in the company. Problem is, Rollins is still the corporate lackey heel. Needs to be a face winning all of this calamity.

The bigger problem? There's no main event faces on RAW.

Kane is also spooky.

 

[BaconBits]

Kane is also spooky.

He actually has tons of history with Taker. Finn Balor... doesn't. At. All.

 

[J-Dogg]

I'm
Hopefully for Owens and Cesaro and Balor is still a strong contender he was huge in NXT and he's reaction for raw will only grow bigger hopefully. Rusev has come into his own and will be champ soon enough I feel.

 

[Sexcellence of Sexecution]

What a terrible way to debut Finn Balor.

New "era." Same booking. Run some fucking vignettes first Jesus Christ.

 

[rbv13]

Duh. Roman Reigns. They tell us all the time. People are going to love his "hero overcoming a mistake while called a loser ac."

 

[Poop Master Flex]

So just tuned in. They're making a 2nd world title again? I can't say I'm surprised but I don't understand why having just 1 champion is such a difficult concept. I think I need a porch to chill and bitch about children on.

 

[@smarkmouth]

Frogsplash is becoming the superkick of top rope moves.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

Everyone has Sweet Chin Music now.

 

[J-Dogg]

Match is going quite long

 

[J-Dogg]

Shit they all going for it

 

[BaconBits]

Duh. Roman Reigns. They tell us all the time. People are going to love his "hero overcoming a mistake while called a loser ac."

The Shield vs Shield stuff needs to die. That shit is more played out than rest holds, and none of them have much in the way of star power.

 

[rbv13]

More important than who gets the win his who takes the falls. Its not going to do anyone any favors.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

Cesaro win would be awesome.

 

[Sean Valjean]

Match is going quite long

Well, they only have about half the roster to work with and 8 guys are in two matches.

 

[J-Dogg]

He fuckin did it yes

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

Good opening match.

 

[rbv13]

Poor RuRu.

 

[@smarkmouth]

Loving the crane camera work.
