rovert posted:Slept through Raw so I assume this was the highlight That's some Shane-O-Mac Stunner selling, good poo poo Liv. (I know the Squaddddd isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I like that they have them interacting with random wrestlers they have nothing to do with backstage. Logan's "hey man" to Elias was great.)

I know a way to get rid of this Roman. Historically I think all we need is a few dozen senators and a knife.

Maybe the writers have it right and we’re overestimating the intelligence of the fans. Maybe the fans can’t rationalize Roman’s actions as heelish.

The paradox of WWE on Roman is amazing cause despite the fact they say they don't care that the crowd boo Roman they keep trying to find ways to get the crowd to cheer him. Funny thing is if they actually booked him with the idea that it doesn't matter if the crowd boos him they probably would of had better TV and...it might actually get people to cheer for Roman. Hell if you just made the Mania match about Roman wanting to prove that he could finally beat Brock it would of been better.

When Lashley cut that promo on Roman in the beginning there was dead silence, people couldn't even give enough of a poo poo to do what chants.

Gaz-L posted:If this stupid feud was at least earnestly trying to get the Revival over as a great team, and making that why they can beat Lashley and Roman, because they're acting like two loners, but no, they can't even pin THE BIG DOG in what was essentially a handicap match. This is why the 'DQ for kicking too much rear end' is dumb, because it doesn't protect the 'winner' but it makes the loser look dumb, so no-one gets over. DQ for kicking too much rear end should only be used if its a beatdown so gruesome that the person is covered in blood and you gotta call down actual security instead of 3 more refs.

She already did that last one and it ruled. She just totally no-sold the guy to hug a kid next to him then walked off.

Jerusalem posted:So far it's just been very generic "I am not going to let things bother me, I'm just gonna breathe and try to stay calm" and there hasn't really been any cultural connotation to it. That's so far, I don't think I can really give WWE the benefit of the doubt on this not ending up going to some pretty stupid places. Like VJeff said, Jinder's already done the more racist version of this "peace and love" gimmick. Surely they have to be going back there.

I was building one of those Bandai model kits but of Android 18 from DBZ instead of a Gundam during Raw. Thinking of getting either a Piccolo or trying one of their Star Wars kits next.

I use Raw time to peruse Big Dog Tshirts online half-thinking I will never buy one and half-thinking if I ever see a super cheap one I'm gonna have a new trash shirt for yard/garage work.

VJeff posted:https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1014207245293367296 Depends what kind of sprain. There's three grades, Grade 1 which is days to weeks, Grade 2 which is a minor tear and is 3 to 6 weeks, and Grade 3 which is a full rupture and is months If it was a full rupture they'd have probably said it, so it's likely Grade 1 or 2. Wouldn't expect Extreme Rules plans for her or Nakamura either way

It doesn't matter what it is, it matters how it comes across. One of the only other things that might come across worse is if they started enforcing the five count for being on the top rope and disqualified people regularly for it.

DeepDickPizza posted:Like VJeff said, Jinder's already done the more racist version of this "peace and love" gimmick. Surely they have to be going back there. Okay, so, here's the thing about Jinder and his weird peace and love gimmick and why I find it weirdly compelling. I think the idea back in 2016 was that he claimed to be this guy who, after he left WWE, was filled with anger and sadness (which is true!) and then he traveled the world and found inner peace, but deep inside, it was just a cover and he was still filled with rage (look at his expression here), he was just trying to mask it. He winds up in sensitivity training with Enzo (and also, Darren Young, Bob Backlund and Bo Dallas), Enzo is a prick to him the entire time and Jinder winds up snapping and teams up with Rusev to beat the piss out of Enzo for a few weeks. After that feud ends, Jinder has completely abandoned the "man who comes in peace" gimmick and is just an angry rear end in a top hat who demands recognition and respect and boasts that he's a main event talent. Then he goes to SmackDown in the Shake Up, you all know what happens, he enlists the Singhs and wins the #1 Contender match and the title. Now, apparently, according to Jinder, originally the promo he was going to cut after he won that #1 Contender match was about how he came in peace and wanted to bring peace, but he was rejected and ignored and mocked for it and now he was an angry rear end in a top hat who was going to win the championship. But Vince called an audible and gave him the Foreign Heel You loving Americans promo instead. So he had his crappy championship run, then he went to Raw and now he's going back to the peace stuff. WWE has been exceptionally awful at portraying Jinder in a way that's not super tonedeaf, but I kinda like his character of "guy who tries to be peaceful but is really just trying to hide that he's an angry dick." It's better than the crap they had him doing on SmackDown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-tte71APps Also, this is really cute.

If it came across that way we wouldn't even be talking about it in this manner. It is just another bad finish in a company that loves their bad finishes.
