01/04 RAW Discussion (Notice it says RAW...not TNA)

[Axis]

Holy shit, what more did you want? BRET HART AND SHAWN MICHAELS FUCKING HUGGED IN THE MIDDLE OF A WWE WRESTLING RING. In my opinion, that moment was bigger than the Hogan/Rock confrontation. It may very well have been the biggest moment in WWE history, along with Hogan/Rock, Shane buying WCW, and Hogan slamming Andre.

I've always heard a lot of complaints that the guest hosts get too involved in the show and detract from the actual works; that is a sentiment with which I often agree. We finally got a host that secluded himself to epic moments and one or two backstage promos that were short and entertaining (the only one I can think of is Hart/Jericho), and now that's not right either? Personally, I hope that guest hosts are only in a handful of segments, and not plastered all over the show.

^I actually wanted him to get involved for to have a solid storyline. Whether it involves DX&Mcmahon/Bret&Dynasty or any other option. Its awesome to have Bret in the WWE, so why not get those 4 months contract with a one last epic storyline that would help young talent to get their push and have Bret involved in WM (as a manager not wrestler).

 

[Axis]

You don't think that Vince kicking him in the balls is going to lead to a storyline?

thats true, and if they made Vince go to this SD! the Dynasty will beat him down. But still, im not sure that they will let Bret to appear again.

 

[Axis]

If they don't, then I agree that it was a HUGE wasted opportunity. But I can't help but think that they have something big in store. He may not even be back next week, but they will likely have some sort of Shawn/Vince confrontation or something. Remember, when Bret was at his prime, in his best storylines, everything built slowly. I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened here.

I hope too.
Its kinda unclear atm as how they will allow Bret to induct his father in the HOF IF he will be applying a sharpshooter on Vince and would be his nemesis for the next 4 months.

Bret signed something like a six month deal. He'll be back for sure. He ain't coming back for a one-shot just to get kicked in the balls, he's winning this feud and nothing is a surer bet this year.

 

[The Rated R CMStar]

It's obvious Bret will be back. They have long term plans for him, they are even now selling new merchandise for him. So worse case scenario he'll show again to push his T-shirt. But seriously, it's rather obvious Bret and Vince will be working a program. The nature of it is still sketchy, but they are going to work together for sure.



NOW, onto other subjects of Raw, that Miz segment was awesome. As little as his mic work on Maryse was, the whole atmosphere created by the staredown between the two, the douche look Miz has and the awesome new theme song he was given was awesome. Here's hoping MVP doesn't get the belt, I like him, but Miz is awesome.

 

[Dynamo]

Miz needs a programme, and the only person on RAW who can give him a decent feud is MVP. They can really make something of those two. There should be a couple of title changes before WM and have them end it there.

Also, does anyone else not see how good Evan Bourne is? That high knee he does is quality, as well as every other move he pulls off.. I wish they'd let him fuckin work, instead of spending 60% of his time gettin squashed.

 

[JurassicBonez]

Just checked out The Miz on you tube and his new entrance music is :thumbup:. I liked his other one but this one is way better. That's the only thing I wanted to see on RAW.

Evan Bourne is fucking incredible. He should have gotten Kofi's push. A feud between Evan and Miz is sure to overshadow just about everything else going on.

that hug was soooo fake though, they should have kept it with the handshake

 

[noumenon]

Take a look at the looks on both of their faces when it happened and call it a fucking great moment. They both looked disgusted.

 

[Dynamo]

^^^That was fuckin cringe worthy. I felt like maybe Shawn was less adverse to the idea, but Bret was not feelin it. LMAO.

So, are we at some point going to see Bret put Vince in the sharp shooter, and if Bret is on a 4/6 month deal. Is he gona be involved in WM?

 

[JurassicBonez]

If you don't really care that Bret's coming back or about him and HBK/Vince *raises hand* then what else was there to look forward to on Raw? A title match? A majority of their title matches the past month have either ended in no contest or DQ. Sheamus? Guys title reign has been crap. Orton vs Kingston? That feud lost steam along time ago, and that's coming from a Kingston fan. DX? Hornswaggle? .... Enough said.

Hell after the entire show, alls I wanted to see was the Miz, his new theme is awesome. He's the highlight of Raw when he's featured.
