NotThePars Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Laughed at the tag title relinquishing bit. Braun’s the star of the show nowadays and hits the perfect spot between being goofy and a big threat. The rest was a bit bland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon the focus of being the main face is going to shift from Reigns to Braun very soon. He's getting the sort of reactions they only wish Roman was getting. I don't even mind the goofiness so much as his delivery is very good and it more comes off as a guy who just doesn't know how to be anything other than strong as f**k rather than a bumbling fool. Even when ushering the kid into the ring at Mania, his 'GET IN THERE' when opening the ropes drew a proper belly laugh from the crowd. Face badass Strowman vs arrogant and dangerous heel champ Reigns who is assisted with his slimy lackey in a returning Ambrose would be absolute money for them. Thought Reigns promo was quite heelish as well in its delivery and despite its content about him being kept in the dark, not in anyway supposed to draw sympathy. More to make him look like a whiny face. Joe's no-nonsense bit about him always having an excuse despite same outcome time and time again against Lesnar and Reigns' scowling, disgusted face at Joe's appraisal of him, certainly made it feel like they wanted folk agreeing with Joe. Nothing about the entire segment made Reigns come off as likeable or someone to get behind. Edited April 10, 2018 by djchapsticks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be some dunt next time Braun's facing a beatdown, music hits and mini-Messi bursts through the curtain. Love Samoa Joe. Guy can cut a great promo as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Tunbridge Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Reigns being outed as a Celtic fan on RAW should make him set in stone to be a heel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 What a pile of shite this RAW has been. It's the hope that kills you. I thought It wasn’t too bad overall.Jeff Hardy, Joe and Lashley returns are all good. Ember Moon call up Is good, she’ll be champ sometime. The whole Reigns thing Is really boring now, they need to let someone else have a go. No way Joe Is just another Adam Rose Bunny so no thank you. Alexa Bliss needs to step aside and let another diva have a go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 They've tried Reigns as the anti-authority hero stuff before and it never worked. Why do they think it will work again? Joe called it right in his promo. Talking of which, does the fact that Reigns will face Joe at Backlash mean that Reigns is winning the title in Saudi Arabia? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jeff Hardy return in that segment made zero sense to me. I didn't really pop just thought it was pointless. Unless I'm missing something and he had beef with Miz and that before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought they might of put him on SmackDown and go for the US title, as that title needs different people fighting for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Enjoyed Jeff's bit with Bray and Matt. He came across like he was indulging his brother's mad shite which tbf he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 By all accounts, Lashley is a very different thing at this point. But then, we heard the same about Tensai and he was still boring as f**k, so who knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Would love to see:Jeff Hardy v Bryan v Naka v Styles4 very good wrestlers that could all bring out the best In each other’s while making a classic storyline.I see Brock Lesnar’s deal Is only a pay as you play basically, only paid when WWE need him. If they’re paying him to be at Greatest rumble then I can see Reigns winning the title there? Maybe Lesnar bowing out at Summerslam In a classic v Lashley? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Lesnar vs Lashley would be far from a classic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 I genuinely wouldn't put it past Vince to try and stage a legit MMA bout on his card between Lashley and Lesnar. He is the guy that wanted to basically genuinely square go Dana White 'for the fan's'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 This feels like a give away. All the lads here I'd imagine will be switching. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Tunbridge Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Charlotte is guranteed to go to Raw to build for Charlotte - Rousey at 'Mania 35. Which would be fucking class, Balor to SD makes sense, Can't see them swapping the secondary titles around but you never know. Hopefully it's better done than last year with regards to who's switching. Rather than their music hitting and Cole going "Dean Ambrose! What's he doing here!?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
