OOfficial Discussion Thread for: RAW (June 12, 2017)
Tonight on RAW: WWEU Champion Brock Lesnar returns to TV for the first time in over 2 months... in fact, he will kick off the show in the first
segment, according to WWE official preview... given that Samoa Joe assaulted Paul Heyman last week, it's safe to assume that Brock isn't
coming to chit-chat, and depending on Paul's condition, Brock's mouthpiece might be less verbose than usual.... those Coquina Clutches can
really crush a larynx, amirite?
So anyone, don't be surprised if things escalate quickly, and turns into a wacky ultraviolent brawl that WWE then proceeds to replay about 7 or
8 times throughout the rest of the show, while the rest of the weekly roster guys and gals take over to cover for Brock and his monthly 15 minutes of
free TV work...
Chief among the other issues on tap tonight is a tag team title rematch, with the Hardy Boyz challenging Sheamus/Cesaro... no stipulation this time,
but my expectations are high that these four click together in a way that they did not at the PPV.... could conceivably even hold up as the
night's main event (although that is more of a SD-type move, to elevate a title match, rather than determining main events by roster
spot)....
Other stuff: based on last week's main event, it seems like WWE is fixing to turn Seth Rollins vs. Bray Wyatt into a featured upper-mid-card
feud.... Dean Ambrose still has unfinished business with IC Champ The Miz, but could also be outta luck depending on how GM Kurt Angle reacts to
Ambrose disobeying orders last week (in which case, word on the street is still that Roman Reigns will step in to be Miz's next challenger, and
Ambrose has a built-in feud with The Drifter)... Alexa Bliss retained her title from Nia Jax last Monday, but only by getting herself intentionallly
DQ'd, so you can bet there being more to that story... mysterious attacks on Enzo Amore expanded last week, and now, Big Cass has been laid out,
as well; various theories exist as to the culprit, and as of 7 days ago, you kinda have to plug Big Show into the discussion, too... Goldust vs.
R-Truth is simmering nicely, with some unique old-school pro-done vignettes that recall Goldust's earliest days with the WWF, but should be
making it into a ring soon enough.... and lastly, the ongoing adventures of Titus and Apollo has seen the pendulum swing back AWAY from a true heel
turn for Apollo, as he joined in the giggles after Titus got beat by Kalisto, leading to a dispute...
Oh, and of course, there's the whole thing with GM Kurt Angle's ominous concerns regarding something that Corey Graves knows.... other
than Graves and Angle both being from Pittsburgh, I'm not exactly sure what the hook is supposed to be (maybe Graves reviving Monsoon's
old "Gorilla-vine" gimmick of having inside track on backstage info?), but I would guess that this is setting up the return of Stephanie McMahon, to
play the antagonist to Kurt's friendly figurehead...
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!

1) Teh Rick!
2) Getting this one out of the way early tonight:
You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know,
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
I'm not high. You know what I mean?

The Beast is about to be unleashed! Hopefully this segment involves Joe coming out, followed by Lesnar making a Strategic Retreat. UNLEASHED.
Also, Great Balls of Fire. I've now typed that for the first time. It feels good. So good. 
You did it, Nibbles. Now chew through my ball sack.

Hooray for Bulkier Damian Sandow's win! I guess! At least the match didn't end on yet another cheap rollup.

Now it's even better with that entrance.
Edit: Remember, kids. Never use your phone while driving. Also apparently never use your phone while headed to a wrasslin' match.

Once Tyler Breeze taught them how to put smartphones on the big screen, it changed the business forever.
That's not even terribly hyperbolic, all things considered.

That was really worth the five minute break to change the ropes from red to purple, and the current five minute break to change them back from purple
to red. The only good part was all the confused cajuns trying to figure out if they were supposed to cheer for the black dude or not.
Heh heh, Bray is their leader!
Wow. Tonight's RAW is just made for being mercilessly run through the Frinkiac.

This version of the Hardy Boyz is lame. As. Fuck.  Save them, Vanguard 1, you're their only hope.

I keep waiting for them to go Full Broken, and they don't do it. WHY WON'T THEY DO IT. Maybe it can be triggered by Senor Benjamin
suddenly appearing on the entrance ramp during a match in silhouette while holding aloft a mighty.... rake. AND THUS THE MAGIC IS RE-ENCHANTED AND THE
BREAKING WILL BE TO COMMENCING FOR ALL.
GREAT. BALLS. OF. FIRE.

Timing it from the end of the Miz/Angle bit. This is now getting close to a full hour of time-killer/complete garbage in a row.

If you are entertained by Alicia Fox, then you are beyond professional help. It's time for someone to take you behind the barn and pull an
"Old Yeller" on you.
