Matt D Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 On the bright side they could turn Becky Lynch back into a Riverdancer to be his valet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 If it wasn't for The Authority's involvement I could see Seamus having one of those one-day title reigns, but there's no way Triple H is made to look foolish, right?

Mad Dog Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 He took a spear from Reigns, that means he has to win for the next month to get that elusive heat back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 This was easily the best of the long Authority promo segments in the last month. By a lot. Thought Seamus was quite good in this segment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 On one hand I'm bummed that Rusev is gonna be used as the new Kane/enforcer for The Authority (unless it's a one night only type of deal). On the other though, Rusev as the new Kane is a huge fucking improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy James Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Anything for Rusev to do is nice, and I'm already liking the prospect of him and Reigns if they go with a "beat the authority goons" thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scg84 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I wonder if they'll still run with Barrett since it was the three of them before Rusev was injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...TG Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 The opening promo wasn't quite as bad as I'd feared, probably due to Sheamus being a new (ish) voice. Plus Roman seemed really over with this crowd at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 So you cut a long albeit hilarious promo about how much they hate country and then decide that the open tag challenge should be 2 Mexicans and 2 Samoans and they don't even have a match. That was really disappointing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffey Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 The Prime Time Players & Goldust Vs. The Cosmic Wasteland (Stardust & The Ascension) was a lot of fun. So was the pre-match backstage skit with Stardust & Titus O'Neil. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Lots of booking tricks to make it happen, but the crowd has absolutely been with Reigns tonight. I like Reigns and want him to succeed in his role, so I hope it works over the long haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Loved the main event. HOSS WRESTLING~ Â Also, there was a dream sequence about Torito in a cowboy hat, and hamburgers. Â I thought overall this was the strongest Raw of the last few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 A good night for Reigns but this show was painfully boring in spots  I generally like all three of them but they can't possibly have long term plans for Sheamus on top when he's paired with Rusev and Barrett. Barrett gets to do a run in during a main event angle and is instantly disposed of. Pretty sure this is just a backdrop to setup Hunter v Reigns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chief Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Overall they used a lot of fresh faces tonight and I approve. Guys like Goldust and Rusev coming back from injuries and then guys like Swagger and Slater who never get TV time outside of the C-Shows. They even gave The Lucha Dragons a little bit of promo time. Its too bad there's so many injuries right now but the show did feel fresher than its been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codysseus Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Two womens matches were the highlights for me. Can we please have a Sasha/Becky feud?I thought Paige was probably at her best as a heel last night. That Raw match was muuch better than the Survivor Series one, but Charlotte needs to put Paige through the announce table next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Two womens matches were the highlights for me. Can we please have a Sasha/Becky feud? Â I thought Paige was probably at her best as a heel last night. That Raw match was muuch better than the Survivor Series one, but Charlotte needs to put Paige through the announce table next week. Why is it that the women use all types of submissions, but the guys only use chinlocks? Paige seems to bust out three new submissions every match, and they all look nasty. Charlotte is getting better, but the seams of her work still show too much for my taste. She just looks like she is trying to look like a wrestler instead of naturally feeling like a wrestler. She's the perfect base for all of Paige's submissions though, she has that Melina flexibility that makes submissions look devastating.

Slasher Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 In terms of the athletic abilities that their wrestlers have, it is more likely that the women have a background that is more focused on flexibility than the guys. Guys think being in shape means weightlifting, cardio exercises, etc while the women come from more of a diverse athletic background. Then you think of like John Cena vs Neville in terms of their body frame. Cena is more bulky with more muscles while Neville is more lean. So you would expect Neville to have better flexibility than Cena. Same applies to their women vs men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Yeah I would echo that I love the women busting out all kinds of holds that remind me of the days when Fuchi would stretch Kikuchi into a pretzel in the early 90's. Paige has some nasty stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blehschmidt Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Rumor is that Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe asked for and received his release from NXT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Rumor is that Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe asked for and received his release from NXT. Â If he hasn't he should since they've done precisely jack shit with him. He must not have shook the right hands backstage since he went from getting hype videos to debut his character to becoming a jobber in record time.

Blehschmidt Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I really like Sami as a worker, and he's a hell of a nice guy. I'm not sure what happened down there, but hopefully he can make some money heading back onto the indy circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 So it looks like standing pat with the same "champ is a toady for the Authority" story just earned them the lowest Raw ratings in 20 years. Â It's getting pretty amazing how completely paralyzed this company seems to be right now. It's like WWE is a turtle that someone flipped over and they are unable to get back up.

C.S. Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Rumor is that Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe asked for and received his release from NXT. Â He was terrible - at least from what I saw of him in NXT. He came across as a total goof and wasn't in the least bit believable. Can't blame the gimmick either, because the gimmick was actually good and contemporary, but he did jack shit with it. I'm sure I'm swimming against the grain with this opinion, but so be it. What he did in front of 500 people in ROH or wherever means nothing to me, because that never translated in NXT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
