Punk is still gonna get cheered like a baby face and Cena booed like a heel, do I wonder how it will work this summer compared to doing it last.

I would've loved Austin too. I still think it was overall a decent show though.

No Stone Cold is trending worldwide atm, seriously :lol:

Austin was really all the show needed that it didn't have.

& D'lo Brown.

In the world of pro-wrestling, being out for 3 minutes of a match is like being in a 6 month coma. It's a long **** time.

Could Paul Heyman have something to do with this ?

Pretty much. I expect to hear that little parable 7 days from now.

Paul Heyman with punk vs Cena could ceartinly help. You can really hate Heyman.

Okay, good show.

Best part: slick
Worst part: no Austin

Right now, it looks like it's going to be a triple threat match at Summer Slam with the addition of Big Slow. The twitter pole kinda spoiled that.

I'm seriously pissed about Ausitn, but if you're grading this on the "wrestling on television scale", it gets an A.

Wish Big Show would go away.

My thoughts:
McMahon got two of the loudest pops of the night, guy still has it. One of my favorite heels ever
Seeing DX again was nice, glad X-Pac got no promo time. Saw a Road Dogg/Billy shoot interview from a year ago saying that they found god and they turned their life around, and from the looks of it they've kept it together. Good for them, actually laughed at a Triple H joke too for once. No Chyna, but that's expected :lol:

No comment on Funkasarus/Swagger, just release Swagger. Great seeing Foley again though :lol:

Slick, no comment needed on him. Wedding was pretty stupid but oh well, if Bryan stays in the spotlight I'm good
Rocky's insults have gotten worse, but it's PG so I can't blame him. His delivery is obviously still top notch
6 man tag match was pointless, hopefully Jericho/Dolph leads to something good. I want a Mysterio/Cara match asap
Steph and Lita still look in amazing shape. Lita looks in really high spirits, considering about 5 years ago she was known as a slut/whore etc It's nice to see her bounce back and still look good. Nice to see all the legends again as well.
The McMahons burying Heyman/ECW/Lesnar all in one segment, that's a first.Not expecting much from that match
Miz/Christian was decent but nothing special, great seeing Bret as always
Punk heel turn should lead to some big things for him again, **** the Big Show. Just retire already. Loved Rock's reaction after the spinebuster
Loved seeing the Brothers of Destruction again, although Taker really needs a wig or something :lol:

No Austin and Edge were wtf moments though. No excuse for them not being on, mostly Austin. Guy was probably the main reason Raw is still on the air.
Shane would've been nice to see as well. Can't be that busy managing golfers/whatever else he's doing.

Probably missed something

AVolumeScorer · Post #555 » by **AVolumeScorer** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 3:41 am

Oh yeah, those Sheen segments were so **** stupid. I'd be shocked if he brought a single viewer to the show
TNA chant was funny
Touting is dumb as well, nice ad placements throughout the show though

Post #556 » by **studcrackers** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 4:23 am

well that ending was unexpected.

the way theyve mentioned now on at least 2 broadcasts how long punk's reign has been im expecting he holds it til the royal rumble at least (whether he not he actually main events a ppv remains to be seen)

Yep. Punk's back where he belongs.

Heel turn came out of nowhere, but done beautifully !

I hope there won't be any recycling of his promos from last year (criticizing Cena and Rock).

this could be the anti management Punk we've been waiting to see. I'm not sure how that will work with AJ as GM though.

Post #559 » by **studcrackers** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 4:54 am

so aside from punk's turn what was everyones favorite or most surprising moment?

i laughed my ass off at the hand and mae young. aj as the new gm was great too

also, even though i love christian so much more than the miz it was cool to see the heel get a clean victory, could hopefully start a resurgance for him (and maybe that title too)

3 beefs i had was where was ziggler/jericho, uneeded squash match between clay/swagger and there was about 15 seconds of wrestling in the 1st 90 minutes

sandow interrupting dx was amazing too

oh yea, and it needed austin

Seeing all of DX for once was awesome. Thought we were gonna have just HBK and Triple H. Don't mind Punk turning, I mean he's kinda been stale as of late. Should of been Cena though. I know we say it all the time about Cena. But I don't remember the last time Cena beat Punk, how great of it would of been if he had to cheat to win.
