OOfficial Discussion Thread for: RAW (May 8, 2017)
Tonight on RAW: it's one of those 2 weeks out of the year when WWE is overseas, so they've already taped RAW, and if you want to go
looking, you can find the spoilers.... but OO doesn't roll like that... here's a very brief non-spoiler rundown of what's on
tap....
No Kurt Angle, but he assigns a very capable surrogate, who I expect to be very amusing, if last week was any indication....
Looks like you can scratch Brock Lesnar from Extreme Rules in early June.... WWE shuffled creative at the last second last Monday, which is why a
segment all about Seth Rollins and Finn Balor eachwanting a shot at Lesnar's WWEU Title randomly morphed into a match for #1 Contendership to
Dean Ambrose's IC Title (which was won by Miz, beating Rollins and Balor)...
Miz will reveal his timeline for chasing down the IC Title tonight, but in the near term, he ends up being put into a one-on-one match by Balor, due
to the sketchiness of Miz's win last week.... meantime, Rollins rebounds from the setback by facing off against Samoa Joe again (Joe cost
Rollins last week's match)....
Attempting to prove that his title really IS the most important title on RAW, due to Brock's lack of non-absence, Dean Ambrose declares
he'll face all comers.... so, he puts himself in a non-title match.... *plonk*... as a result our main event tonight is Ambrose vs. Bray
Wyatt....
No Brock also means another go-round for Strowman/Reigns is now your main event for Extreme Rules.... expect it to be an Ambulance Match....both men
are back on TV tonight, Strowman with a match against Kalisto, and Reigns... well, I said I wouldn't spoil anything, but Reigns shows up and
does just about exactly what you'd think, if you've ever watched a single pro wrestling show in your life....
Lastly, per GM Angle's order of last week, Tag Team Turmoil takes place tonight, and is a gauntlet match to determine the challengers to the
Hardy Boyz tag titles, featuring every non-Hardys team on the roster...
That is all. End communication.
The flOOr is yours, OO Nation. Don't wait till after 11pm to post, either. Pre-show previewing and prognosticating is certainly welcome.
So discuss, debate, and rate!

I guess the WWE is like the UFC now where titles like the Welterweight and Middleweight are more interesting than the Heavyweight titles.
Diggin' Mizeses Sam "Ace" Rothstein glasses though.
And the "Thank you, Strowman!" chants continue.

Instead, WWE swerves us and delivers a Jack & Coke in a Cole Match. The results will be....... less than satisfactory.
Edit: I guess that'll do for a 400th post.

But the commentary could be highly amusing?
Why didn't they change the ring ropes to purple if they're sending the cruisers out to start the.. Oh, that's Miz? He's not a
cruiser..
eta: I didn't even notice I hit P2K. Huh. (That's Post #2000, for those scoring at home.) I wonder what I rambled about for the
milestone in question.

That looks more like a coked-up Jack? But it's hard to tell with that fella.

Be interesting in a moment to see if Alexa, who could in time be the single best female promo artist they've ever had, be able to handle that
British crowd that left Bayley and Charlotte looking like deer in the headlights the last time WWE went to London.
EDIT: no promo? fuck you WWE!

that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but

Prediction: Dean has to face Bray in a Shower of Horrors Match.
Edit: Sorry Kalisto, you don't particularly matter! Make haste to Lucha Underground or something, where you'll probably be booked about
1000% better.
Also, it seems like how often Roman relies on Superfisting everyone and everything, Strowman should just stomp on his right hand over and over and
over. Problem solved! Or perform a Monty Python-esque arm removal.
Strowman: Your arm's off!
Reigns: No it isn't! *cocks phantom arm, attempts punch anyway, probably succeeds through sheer force of will/Vince*

BOOOOOOOOO'S mean cheers over in the UK and Reigns is extremely popular there, correct? Also, here, have this ---------->
Be neat if they fucked up yet another Wyatt and let Braun get smeared by Roman like Bray was waxed by Cena.

Smearing? Waxing? Superfisting? Since when did this forum turn into a Diva's private home video?

Speaking of which, time for some slop jalops! Aaaaaaaand he's rhyming aboot poopy draws. I guess that kind of Diva video would be pretty cool
too. You can imagine those gifs for yourself though.

The switch from HE'S GOT KIDS to NO MORE KIDS was delightful. DEEEEELIGHTFUL.
Edit: I actually started thinking Golden Truth had a shot at winning just because. But shrug, I'll take what we got.

If Jinder Mahal can become #1 contender, we are living in a WWEUniverse where the Golden Truth -should- get a tag team title shot.

Additionally, it wasn't a very good line. Having said that, I've now guaranteed that Samoa Joe will receive a shirt within the next month
that refers to him as the Kingslayerslayer.
Edit: That might've been one of the best stair collisions I've seen in some time. Or Gallagher's just REALLY good at hitting things
with his head.

Everything is better with -slayer.
Hmm.. If somebody defeats Eeeeeville, could we conceivably have TWO kingslayers on the same show at the same time??
etafterthinkingitthrough: Actually since 205Live is its own little (heh) universe, I suppose they wouldn't REALLY be on the same show. Crisis
averted.

Until we have Crisis on Infinite Balls of Fire, and the 205 Universe is merged with the RAM Universe. Then you'll end up with whoever unseats
Neville, plus Rollins, and then Joe for being the superior slayer of things. Except since Joe has proven capable of slaying the slayer, he'll
just slay everyone. And then Goldberg will beat everyone up because he was in Santa's Slay, and I've now doomed us all to an eternity of
Goldberg. I'm sorry.
Slightly less silly, EGADS Gallagher lost in his homeland? Say it isn't so!

If Gallaher (the second g is invisible, thus silent) actually HAD won in his homeland, I think that would be a sign that the Infinite Crisis of Firey
Balls was upon us. Or that we're living on Fireball-C Minus?
Now I've gotta go read the proper comics, and see if I can straighten all this out in my nerdbrain.
