WWE Raw Discussion Thread, Aug. 22, 2016: The Demon King's Reign Begins

Because powerbombing someone into a barricade is totally safe. :lmao
Just like spearing someone through one, right? :lmao

Wrestlers do dangerous spots on the outside all the time. As long as it was planned, it isn't reckless. If Reigns hurt Rollins, but did the spot as planned you couldn't blame Reigns. Only if Reigns took things too far and went above what was needed or did something unsafely opposed to how they normally do it, it would be on him.

Spear spot is done in a corner that is collapsible.

Tossing someone into a spot that isn't designed to do that is a dumb spot.

The Dudley Boyz to ‘say goodbye’ tonight

One night after yet another miscommunication cost The Dudley Boyz a victory during the SummerSlam Kickoff, the most decorated tag team in sports-entertainment history will evidently be saying their farewells to the WWE Universe tonight, live on Raw.

The Dudley Boyz made the announcement earlier today on Twitter:




For more than 20 years, Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley have been among the most dominant tag teams in the world. They returned to WWE one year ago to earn their 10th tag team championship in WWE—a quest that was ultimately and unfortunately unsuccessful. Nevertheless, there will never be another tandem in sports-entertainment like The Dudley Boyz.

Find out how Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley will cap off their legendary career tonight on Raw, beginning at 8/7 C on USA Network.
