Raw LD 8/22/2016: One More Feisty Brooklyn Crowd

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

Bray is on Smackdown. I don't even think the former Shield members being on top is going all that well. Even more reason to make new main eventers. I do think Cass might be winning this whole deal, though.

Yeah the truth is, with all the hype around the Shield, about bringing in new eras and a new time for wrestling, the Shiled as main eventers haven't been anything special nor did anyone of them create the ultimate buzz that would make him the next John Cena, or the next Austin, or even the next Punk or the next Edge.

"He's got long hair!"

 

[OYDK]

I wouldn't call being punked by Lesnar a fight.

He wasn't punked. Apparently there wasn't even a physical confrontation.

 

[BaconBits]

He stood up to lesnar so I'm fine with that.

He got worked, so he's kind of an idiot. The newer reports indicate the boys in the back aren't so impressed by any of it.

Or the next Gene Snitzski.

Seth has done the better job out of the 3

 

[Navi]

It really is no excuse for simply going back to the same well and asking fans to drink the same bull shit. They could've done so much more. If anything it should've been a chance to get crazy.

They kind of did. None of these matches would be happening tonight if Balor hasn't had to vacate the title. Show would have been completely different.

 

[nwocongo]

I'd like Jericho to respond to the Y2j chants with "I'm the heel you stupid idiots"

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

The way Roman smiles and grins when someone beats him up is golden heel material. Why doesn't he turn already? He could turn the entire WWE upside down.

 

[rbv13]

Get your ass out here Rusev.

 

[Navi]

Did that kickout get called before he actually kicked out.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

I love that dropkick of Roman's.

 

[Navi]

Where is Owens. Oh Jericho will be pissed he didn't have his back. That will be one hell of a feud, the promo's alone will be outstanding.

 

[Slash-LN]

The brand split is the best way for WWE to make new main event wrestlers.

No way would Cass be there right now if there wasn't a split.

 

[shafe_41]

It would be so heel-tastic if Owens came down and just punched Jericho so Jericho could get into the match.

 

[J-Dogg]

Reigns has this now

 

[OYDK]

Where the frig is Rusev.

 

[J-Dogg]

He just swore his head off lol

 

[OYDK]

Give me a break man.

 

[L@RISANO]

Loved the drama at the end there.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

Owens turned into Shia Lebouff.

 

[nwocongo]

Hahah suck it Brooklyn, you got your Bayley debut now quit bitchin and accept Roman as your saivor

 

[rbv13]

They kind of did. None of these matches would be happening tonight if Balor hasn't had to vacate the title. Show would have been completely different.

I refuse to accept that excuse. I'm not debating the show would've been different with Balor. I talking about their inability to entertain when in a bind. Working on the fly happens in entertainment, as other industries, and they continually fail. They did nothing to capitalize on opportunity here.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

Rusev just doesn't care any more about Roman.

Thank god he got rid of him challenging him for his title.

 

[J-Dogg]

And that's end to a pretty meh show
