WWE Raw Discussion III

[Stanford]

I'm not a big fan of the "lol wrestling is fake I'm real" thing, but it's OK on twitter. Especially when Becky is involved.

[Spens1]

Lol, the fact that people are talking about these tweets so much shows that the actual feud is working. People take Twitter too seriously.

the twitter feud is great, but Rousey is not doing her bit when she legitimately gets angry over this and makes Russo type statements on twitter because she's getting riled up.

[improper]

I understand that these guys can't stay in character 100% of the time and don't expect that, and I even appreciate when they do interviews out of character because they provide some nice insight into who these guys and gals are as people, but at least keep your official twitter account kayfabe or what's the f*cking point?

[iMoreland]

Becky literally had "Rebecca Quin" as her Twitter name a while ago. There's no reason for them to be in kayfabe on Twitter.

A lot of wrestlers do that actually, on twitter and ig. I've always figured it was to hedge against a WWE release.

In fact, Dolph Ziggler's name on twitter is his real name and his bio states that he's a stand up comic. I'll allow you some time to think of one funny thing that Dolph Ziggler has ever said or done.

Me neither.

[iMoreland]

I really hope they hand Charlotte the Raw Women's Championship on Monday, that would be so great and perfect for the storyline

[iMoreland]

I have zero interest in anything about this Corbin/Lashley/McIntyre trio.

Also, Aleister Black and Ricochet as a tag team = yuck.

[JohnPferdelack]

is tonight's edition better than the one of last week?

[Mr.Raptorsingh]

Rousey just turned heel.

[heatwillbeback]

Its part Lesnar being MIA and part annoyance that they cant figure out anything else to do, but the Shield stuff is annoying.

Rollins is in a world title program and they always go back to this.

[improper]

Rousey just turned heel.

You mean they just decided to finally turn her heel. She's been heel ever since Becky and her started feuding.

[tugs]

Loving Ronda's new gear. All business.

[Ruzious]

Whether you like what she did last night or not, that was a mesmerizing performance by Ronda. She's gotta be the #1 draw in the WWE.

[bestnamezRtaken]

Ronda is terrible on the mic, absolutely awful. It amazes me they still let her speak on it. Jeez. But finally, an official heel turn by Ronda.

I know I'm in the minority, but I'm okay with Lashley/Corbin/McIntyre trio. I'm done with the Shield BS though, was never a fan of the trio, just let it go.

Black/Ric as a tag team is fine, I'm also okay with that. They have great chemistry together and the bit at the end where Black does his backflip into the sitting position and Ricochet doing his backflip into his saiyin pose...awesome. Looked cool.

People are always going to b*tch about Raw no matter what.

[jakecronus8]

I wonder how much influence Prichard is already having with Vince, because the booking in the last two weeks screams Brucie. Seems less scripted, and more real personality coming out. Roman in particular looks so comfortable and Rousey was the best part of the show last night. I don't even consider that a full heel turn. That's just how a real storyline should unfold. Tons of people booing her and she's finally reacted rather than just smiling and pretending like nothing is happening. I would bet Ronda will have more support than before, given that this is exactly how she should have been booked from the start.

I'm really hoping Ambrose has a change of heart and re-signs. I just don't think AEW will use him properly and he's not a great fit there where I suspect they'll value work rate far more than character work. If they are loosening the reins on what these guys are allowed to do for themselves from a character standpoint, Ambrose will thrive. Ever since it broke that he's out, his DGAF attitude has been a breath of fresh air.

People are always going to b*tch about Ronda no matter what. I thought she was great on the mic last night. She's not smooth by any stretch, but I don't want her to sound smooth.

Totally agree with you on Black/Ric. This is a good way to start their main roster careers. And both are so good that they're both helping each other.

[Heat3]

I like Ronda as a heel. She delivered a believable promo this time. Really just sick of Charlotte being crammed into this. It's so convoluted I don't even want to pay attention to the story line anymore.

[bestnamezRtaken]

Charlotte is making this storyline great. Dunno how people still think Charlotte in this storyline is bad.

[Flames24Rulz]

Cole explicitly mentioning Ambrose's contract status yesterday just re-affirmed to me that the whole thing is a work with him. I'd be extremely surprised if he actually ends up leaving now.

[Ruzious]

Charlotte is making this storyline great. Dunno how people still think Charlotte in this storyline is bad.

She does play the classic heel perfectly; doesn't she - just like her Dad did it.
