WWE FOR 8/10

HOGAN LIED, PIPER DIED





Stephen Amell is gonna be on Raw.

-Seth Rollins is out and he's talkin' 'bout stuff. It's Monday Night Rollins. He made fun of his nose. Seth Rollins is a weak and terrible champion. Seth Rollins is still talking. John Cena is via satellite. Have you ever seen those fake interviews on Conan? It's that and it's terrible. Cesaro walks out with a microphone. Kevin Owens comes out with a microphone.They're a bunch of rude dudes in feuds. Randy Orton joked about Owens's weight. Randy Orton is wearing elbow pads larger than normal. Seth Rollins wants everybody out of the ring, and then Triple H comes out. He books Orton vs Owens vs Cesaro. The winner of the match goes into the main event vs Seth Rollins. Pray for John Cena.

-Daniel Bryan will be on MizTV

-Team BAD (Best At Dominating) is walking backstage, presumable to the tv where they will be filmed watching the diva match.

-The Three Bella Twins come out to the ring to face Team BAD (Best At Dominating). The Submission Sorotity is on commentary so they don't have to cut to them watching tv in the back three times during the match. Where can I get the rear end Licker shirt? Everything is bad. Alicia Fox is working two weeks after getting a concussion. That rollup was dogshit. Thank you, Stephanie. Team PCB (Paige Charlotte Becky) runs in to attack Team BAD (Best At Dominating). Thank you Stephanie.

-New Day is out, but Los Matadores are already in the ring. PTP are watching the match backstage taking notes. The New Day won.

-Seth Rollins is talking to Triple H. Seth isn't happy about an opponent.

-Randy Orton vs Cesaro vs Kevin Owens. Randy Orton is very good. Kevin Owens is also very good. Cesaro did the swing and then a sharpshooter. Randy did the draping DDT to Cesaro and Owens. Owens screamed and then Cesaro did a dive. Orton gave Owens and Cesaro an RKO and won. This was pretty good, so you should go out of your way to watch it.

-Dean Ambrose is talking to the audience. He didn't have a lot of friends growing up. He's a troublemaker. Roman Reigns is also there. Roman "Cool Dude" Reigns is Dean's first real friend.

-Undertaker video package. Remember when he mattered? He lost clean in a bad match. They're going to face each other at Summerslam.

-Dean Ambrose vs Luke Harper. Dean Ambrose lost.

-MizTV time. He calls out Daniel Bryan. Against all odds, he is able to lift his arms above his head to leech heat off of the Big Show. Miz said that Bryan still isn't cleared to enter the ring. BIG SHOW TIME HELL YEEEAAAAH!!! and also the ryback. The point of this segment is Tough Enough, Bryan's book, and The Ryback.

-Rusev and Summer Rae walk out to the ring. Lana is on commentary. Mark Henry, representing America, walks out with a flag to face Rusev. Summer Rae and Lana are fighting in the ring and the ref rang the bell. I'm glad this is happening. Summer took off her shirt and put Lana in the accolade. Rusev celebrated as hard as a human can celebrate, and then a Bulgarian flag with Rusev's face came down. If you think this would be better if Dolph Ziggler was involved, then you're an idiot moron.

-King Barrett vs Neville. Neville beat the guy who kept losing to Ra guy with a Plunger Scepter and Burger King crown. Stardust attacked Neville and looked at Arrow guy, Arrow guy rushed the ring and was held back by security.

-Triple H scolded Stephen Amell. Triple H is protecting the biz from marks like Stephen Amell. Wade Barrett and Stardust vs Stephen Amell and Neville.

-If you don't have the network, you're a moron and I hate you. It's only $9.99.

-Seamus, who won Money in the Bank, is being interviewed. He won Money in the Bank.

-Randy Orton vs Seth Rollins. At least this Main Event Title Match isn't Opening the Show this week. Randy Orton wins by DQ when Sheamus broke up a pin. Sheamus cashes in and demands a match., but the ref was stalling or something. Sheamus gets an RKO for his trouble.






If you want something added to the OP that everybody loves talking about, like KANE, Hogan lying under oath, ppv buyrates, WWE distancing themselves from Hogan because of the racism while still treating the segment where X-Pac was in blackface as one of the great moments, WWE's search for a superstar Diva that isn't Lana, Scott Steiner's new tattoo, or Kevin Nash, just let me know and I'll add it.

Other than Rollins continuing to look like a chump and the Cena/Rollins match being literally the most obvious outcome in WWE history (Taker/Brock was more of a question mark even before people started buzzing about the possibility) I liked that Raw a lot and Summerslam is shaping up to be a loving awesome card.

"Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?"
I was on the other side of the room when a Tough Enough commercial aired. I misheard the commercial as "TOMORROW, JOHN CENA GUEST HOSTS TAPENADE!".

Now I want to see John Cena host a show about Tapenade.

Like Ernie himself, they have risen from the dead. Dynamite puts out Chaos now as a creator-owned imprint.

Amell's ring gear will be a highlight of SummerSlam.

I've reversed from last week. Not because rollins looked like a chump, but because it's title for title. I don't see Cena losing a double-title match.

Well that's because plans changed, they intended to have them trade titles, but everyone saw them trading titles, so they unified them.

Rollins looks like a chump and we get the heatless boring duo of Orton and Sheamus to do it. Oh boy.

They're just so much better and more interesting than Cesaro and Kevin Owens for example. I'm finally starting to see that now

Dean is going to get "knocked out" and then Roman will lose 2 v 1 to set up a Survivor Series match. Roman will get his heat back by fighting off Bray and Harper 2 v 1 while Dean just mysteriously vanishes and is never mentioned.

I'd almost put money on this result

They'll win and Cesaro will win

The big matches at Summerslam won't go your way, so just accept the pity undercard stuff as consolation

Seriously the WrestleBros are going over clean as a sheet. I'd bet on Roman getting the pin but Dean will figure into the finish and stand tall with Roman after.

Please put money on your scenario though, do it

Raw was fun. Was pleasantly surprised by Green Arrow dude not getting chumped in the ring. The Syncro-Vox was just dumb enough to be funny, although that segment dragged a bit. Triple Threat was great. Please never let Becky Lynch do commentary again. Please give Team BAD some better lines.

Raw was an overall good show. Good opening segment, a few good matches and an excellent triple threat match between Cesaro/Owens/Orton. Nothing really felt wasted, just about everything was building Summerslam up, except for the Rusev segment, which was great because the flag is back.

Summerslam looks like its going to have one of the best cards in a while. Divaa Trios match, 4 way for the tag belts, IC match, US/WHC match, Owens/Cesaro continues to build, and Orton/Sheamus is building steam. Oh and Lesnar/UT is still gonna be boffo

gently caress, even the telegraphed celebrity fights Stardust angle was pretty good.
