WWE RAW 9th January - Live Discussion Thread

[Andrew]

Making this in advance.

Last week we saw the cryptic videos to be revealed as Chris Jericho who came out to a 'face' reaction and left without saying a word. Will Jericho speak this week?

Brodus Clay didn't debut but has been promised once again that he will return this week on RAW. (I doubt it)

Cena/Kane ended up with Kane trying to pull Ryder down from the ring, what will we see here in this storyline?

With many more things happening for RAW, what do you expect to see? Discuss.
​

Look forward to seeing Jericho this week to see how the crowd react to him. I suspect that they will cheer when they hear the music but by the end will boo him because of how he acted last week. They expected more and I wonder if they will delay his promo for another week just to get the fans even more worked up.

Kane will be a highlight as always for me and I see WWE booking them into a match for the Rumble this week.

Should see some RR qualifying matches or matches to determine things like Number 30 pick. Basically a lot of focus on the Rumble so that WWE build it for what it is which is the second biggest PPV of the year.

 

[Andrew]

Won't be watching, neither next week too...

Will be looking up results online. It sucks

 

[Heisenberg]

Troy basically summed up most of the same thoughts that I had so I haven't got much to post and I think this RAW is sort of unpredictable.

Like I say every week, I can't wait and especially since Jericho is back! Hopefully my internet speed picks up by tomorrow afternoon.

How many posts will we hit during RAW? Or pages?

 

[Crippler]

Jericho to troll for another 10 - 20 minutes please.

WWE Possibly Announcing A HOF Inductee Tonight

Tonight's RAW might feature the first official Raw announcement of an inductee in this year's WWE Hall Of Fame. Tickets go on sale in a few weeks which might cause WWE to announce a big name to help ticket sales, according to F4Wonline.

Mexican wrestling star Mil Mascaras was announced a few months ago as an inductee for this year's class.

I'm not confirming anything, it's just a possibility.

 

[Deuce]

I hope they announce a cool inductee to start it off. I am hoping to see Jericho tonight but I hope he doesn't troll this time, it was annoying. I don't think Brodus will debut tonight, I see a Royal Rumble debut and that's it.

WWE "Daniel Bryan challenges Kofi Kingston to a Champion vs. Champion Match" | January 9, 2012

After WWE Tag Team Champion Kofi Kingston questioned World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan's wins over Big Show, the submission specialist countered with an offer Kofi couldn’t refuse for tonight's Raw SuperShow in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Kinda glad for Kofi, just hope they don't make him look like a bitch =/

[Andrew]

Least Kofi gets a match.

Looks like Bryan's turning heel if Kofi's questioned his antics.

 

[Deuce]

-- WWE.com has announced a match pitting World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan against Kofi Kingston for tonight's RAW SuperShow.

After Kingston questioned Bryan's victories over Big Show, the SmackDown Superstar challenged the WWE Tag Team Champion to a match. Bryan added, "Obviously non-title, of course."

I actually can't wait to see what Kingston can do against the WHC, kind of hoping to see him pull out the big W.

 

[Deuce]

Just found this!

-- John Laurinaitis just tweeted the following:
I hope you're all excited for #Raw tonight...Brodus will be debuting, and @IamJericho will be speaking. It's like a redo from last week.

 

[The Cork]

Very boring, lets just hope the talented one (Kofi) wins otherwise WWE will be a lauging stock.

Jericho isnt a troll, hes just a terrible babyface. Lets hope they dont over milk it again this time.

 

[Andrew]

Kofi vs. Bryan could be good, this could lead to something. I'd much rather have Epico or Primo make an attack thus making a storyline for the Tag belts. Do something about them already!

 

[Heisenberg]

Could Bryan vs Kofi be a heel turn? The way Bryan has acted on SmackDown lately and the ending of his previous match against Big Show. It'd make sense him having a beat down on Kofi and would get much more attention being on RAW, would be viewed by more people too then SmackDown. With Big Show possibly making the save during the beat down?

 

[Andrew]

I'd like to see it happen, Bryan wins via Submission but holds it in even longer and doesn't let go allowing Big Show to come make the save?

That'd work.
