Posted January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828239 Lots of injuries going on. Let's see if they are able to keep the pace going on RAW despite that.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828249 The Revival is back. Fun short squash and a fantastic promo after. Great stuff.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828257 Sasha got straight-up squashed. Evidently she is being held responsible for what happened to Paige.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828264 I hope The Revival gets its heat back. JFC, the crowd couldn't care less. Its also unfortunate that Paige had to get shoot hurt before WWE sent out the mandate that a trio of wrestlers doesn't ALWAYS have to appear in the same formation regardless of how contrived it comes off.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828272 It was pretty bad booking to have the Revival do a "WE'RE GONNA SPEAK THE WAY WE WANT TO" promo when they've been in the Main Event (the show not the card position) ghetto since returning. Like why would the crowd have any reason to care what they had to say? Also it looks like their new thing is doing injury angles that are supposed to be thought of as real. Enzo last week, Nia tonight. Finn selling the return of the Curb Stomp like death was a nice touch, but of course the stupid WWE TV presentation had to stay on it so long it looked like a scene from the Office.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828286 So, Braun was great. Not a great episode on the whole but I assume they were kind of killing time until next week.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828290 Am I the only one thinking Jericho being there next week is huge? he's basically making appearances for the two biggest promotions in the world at the same time, seeing how he is still working with NJPW.

Like why would the crowd have any reason to care what they had to say? It has to start somewhere, it has to start somehow. What better place than here, what better time than now? Also, yeah. Y2J being on WRESTLE KINGDOM and RAW25 on the same MONTH is incredible stuff.
January 16, 20187 yr comment_5828336 Looks like Jey Uso caught a DWI in Texas, should be interesting to see how WWE handles that.
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828343 Some guy is apparently busted for dealing steroids to celebrities has claimed he sold to Roman Reigns. Obviously nothing concrete but he also named Mark Wahlberg and some other actor I can't remember so it could become a mainstream story if there's any legs to it.
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828351 These handheld video promos are a nice idea, or at least they would be if the delivery of the promos weren't so woeful. They just did a bit for the women in the Rumble and the Riot Squad each cut the most dire promos one after the other. Xavier vs Jinder was a strong match though and got some decent time
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828409 On the Roman steroids issue, isn't this gonna date from before June 2016 when he served a suspension anyway? So I don't think it's gonna matter if he can claim he's been clean since then.
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828417 Had to check out the Revival segment after hearing some people buzz about it. Meh. The only feeling I got from it was that they were prepping the Revival to be the team to eat a handful of the legends' finishing moves next week. It's the same role the Ascension, La Resistance, and other esteemed pairings have filled on these past anniversary shows. Not so sure why people were acting like it was a breakthrough moment or anything. Did I miss something there?
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828454 So, Braun was great. Not a great episode on the whole but I assume they were kind of killing time until next week. What exactly was the point in firing them and then a hour later rehiring him? Obviously if you fire someone storyline there is a point to it ie when Austin got fired and Shane stood up to his father and rehired him but doing it in the same show made no sense.
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828456 It makes sense if it's leading to Braun vs HHH. Stephy hires him back for her man to put him in his place.
January 17, 20187 yr comment_5828459 Braun vs HHH and what's in spoiler tags maybe. Yikes. McMahon Mania incoming. Color me very much uninterested.
January 19, 20187 yr comment_5828668 Braun vs HHH and what's in spoiler tags maybe. Yikes. McMahon Mania incoming. Color me very much uninterested. I wouldnt mind Braun/HHH for Mania as at least that means Braun gets nowhere near the main event.

I wouldnt mind Braun/HHH for Mania as at least that means Braun gets nowhere near the main event. HHH is always the real main event and even if he's not, why the hell would you not want Strowman near the main event?

Ive not been interested in Braun at all since he was in the Wyatts, just felt hes completely overratted in a big man being pushed because Vince likes big guys. All these guys getting squashed by him, id rather see real wrestlers on tv than this chump hogging the storylines.

He has great matches and gets over huge but I guess he must be terrible and only be pushed cause Vince has a hard on because he's over 6'4
