KawadaSmile Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Sadio Mane vs Mohammed Salah in the finals of a continental tournament is one of the biggest match-ups in soccer at the moment. I kinda miss new, huge match-ups in wrestling. AEW has done something, pick up the pace, Fed. Roman vs Goldberg is happening four years too late.

Johnny Sorrow Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Getting ready to take the kids to RAW tonight in Denver. It'll be the first time I've watched an entire RAW in a few years. Should be fun, the kids are excited to go to a live TV show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 For those who are unaware, Raw is on Syfy tonight due to the Winter Olympics. Make sure to update your DVRs. I'd hate for anyone to miss the quiz bowl between RK-Bro and Alpha Academy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted February 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 The crowd seems to like it. This feud is faaaaaar from the worst thing they have done, really. Just harmless fun and it serves to make Orton's case as a top 100 wrestler ever!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenese Sarwieh Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Owens/Theory had a good showing and I have to give props to Owens because he always gives effort regardless of where he is on the card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Bianca getting to meet Jackie Joyner-Kersee was a pretty cool thing, I remember watching her in the Olympics when I was a kid and she was unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 We just got back. The kids had a blast and so did we. Three hours flies by live. There was a Becky vs. Bianca match after for the live crowd but we left to beat traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm betting they start coming to Denver more often. The crowd was hot most of the night and while it wasn't a sell out, it drew more than a lot of cities lately.

Reel Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Two straight raws that were pretty good, not as good as last week, but another solid 3 hour show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Obviously, the pacing felt a bit weird for the first hour without the commercials (kinda feel that NXT has done it a bit better with time, maybe because they did it a couple of times already) but a fun RAW nevertheless. KO & Austin Theory deliver another banger, the Quiz Bowl was hilarious and it looks we might be headed for Rollins vs KO at Mania? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Street Profits vs Alpha Academy was a banger as well, Montez continues to prove gravity is optional for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reel Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Gable is the MVP for TV Wrestling this year, was always a very good wrestler, but has become a great Angle-type comedy character with this gimmick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted February 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Yup. Raw being GOOD two weeks in a row is a surprising welcome. I cannot confirm it by memory, but Denver feels like one of the most recepive crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It filled my heart with a weird joy as I turned to look at the boys screaming "You suck!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Pete Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Yeah the crowd really helped make the Quiz Bowl and MizTV segments. The latter of which I felt really delivered especially given how thrown together it all was. I'm curious about the direction they're taking with Owens, Rollins and Lashley. Lashley definitely played to the home crowd tonight and I get the sense Owens could be turning babyface. Also Alexa has to be the sixth participant in the RAW Women's Elimination Chamber, right? Curious to see if they pair her up with somebody in the match and the two go onto challenge for the tag titles at Wrestlemania. Liv seems like the obvious choice here.

NintendoLogic Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Meltzer said today on the F4W board that Shane is apparently ridiculously jacked for a guy his age. He prefaced that by stating he didn't want to say anything more, so it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what he's trying to get at. If that's the case, it would go a long way in explaining his apparent personality change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strummer Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Just occurred to me that Shane is the same age now that Vince was when he started his feud with Austin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 I know it was his hometown, but is Lashley actually supposed to be a babyface now? He's feuding with Brock, who was the clear babyface against Roman, so it's all confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they continue doubling up the vignettes to speed up her return on TV, that's possible. Apparently, 9 vignettes were shot and I think 7 of them aired, so there are two left. Although I'm still thinking the sixth entrant is Asuka. But even if she returns but doesn't win EC, they can still set up Alexa's Wrestlemania program based on that match. Having her face Nikki would make sense, based on how her whole downward spiral started. But that also depends if she'd be face or heel at that point.
