RAW December, 1st, 2014 Live Discussion

[Prince Bálor]

First thing I thought when I saw The New Day stable was "Is this fucking Blue's Clues?!" First we see them in the photo with Grumpy Cat wearing Tons of Funk style Adidas longsleeve jackets and pants, and now they wear blue. I get it, it's a new day, but still it felt kind of weird. I don't really understand why whenever someone or a group of guys get repackaged, people automatically shit all over it. Come on now, give it a chance. Their debut wasn't bad or anything even though it was against Slater, Titus and Axel, who are now jobbers. Like seriously, why break Prime Time Players up? They were over. Darren and Titus were fantastic, they were in high profile tag matches and had some entertaining segments. I think with those two, it's a case of Cryme Tyme. They both suffer without each other. Titus is jobbing, Darren is out with an injury and wasn't doing anything worth of any notice. It was the same with Cryme Tyme. Shad was released not too long after and JTG was never really used (which made him the subject of many jokes and memes among fans) and yet was still on the roster. So yeah, they both suffered without each other. Slater and Axel have always suffered. Even with Paul Heyman, Axel was a total bust. Yeah, I gave that a chance and I did the same with the laptop GM when they first started the whole thing, but it just never seemed to work. I do wish that Bischoff wasn't still with TNA so that if WWE wanted to, could bring him back to power. He was great as GM of Raw back in the day. You might be surprised by this but I hated Paul Heyman as GM of SmackDown and John Laurinaitis from two weeks after WM 28 up until some time after Extreme Rules a few weeks later. Heyman showed favoritism towards Brock Lesnar his entire run and so did Laurinaitus did until Heyman came back to be the mouthpiece. I don't like the whole "showing favoritism" thing by a person in some kind of power for anyone even in things not wrestling. That's a fan's job. Anyway, I'm looking forward to Raw tonight and next week. Should be a good show.

I like what I'm seeing from The New Day, honestly. I'll admit, though, I was shitting on it before they debuted 'cause I wanted to see 'em as a heel stable, but I'm glad I was proven wrong. This thing could be fn' sweet!

I totally understand why they were put against Slater-Gator & Axel, they needed to look strong in their debut.
And for the record, blue is cool!

PTP and Cryme Tyme had the same fucking fate, it's unbelievable.

As far as the anonymous RAW GM goes, it's ridiculous. I'd be totally fine with having anyone else on that position or no one at all. WWE needs to get their shit together.

Strong rumors that they plan on revealing the Anon GM today, which would be awesome if they did.. assuming most of the IWC/WWE Universe is opposed to that specifically being recycled.. although with it being "Cyber Monday" they may just wait a tad longer (hopefully not too long).

Yeah, next week would be great.

Anyone replacing this anonymous RAW GM dogshit would be awesome, really.

Or if WWE wants to try to pull a swerve, it could be revealed that Triple H and Stephanie are sending the emails

[HASHTAG]#BringBackTheAuthority[/HASHTAG] lease:

Then book Sting vs HHH at WM31 to finally strip The Authority of all their power. :yay:

I'm guessing New Day will win this, otherwise it would be pointless to waste their Raw debut on this.

People need to keep it optimistic for the new day crew. Everyone here is so quick to shit on anyone and anything new outside of generic gimmicks we see over and over. They are 3 good/great midcard talented wrestlers, Xaview IMO deserves some mic time, and the tag division has been absolute dogshit. It's nice to see a babyface gimmick with some attitude, because the uso's fucking suck. They are 2 months worth of #1 contender/champ matches away from hearing Cole yell "Vintage Uso's!" every time we see their 4 move gimmick.

I'm excited to see what they do with the team in WWE, and it's a shining light with this hornswaggle dogshit GM role going on. The only thing keeping me interested is Ambrose/Wyatt, New Day, Dolph Ziggler, and Luke Harper tbh. I even buy into Ryback but could give a fuck less about Kane. WWE needs to bury their monsters and admit they turned them into blubbering vagina's 10 too many times.

 

[Aids Johnson]

I wouldnt be surprised if Gold and Stardust cheated to keep New Day from winning, even if it cost them a title shot at TLC.

 

[Just Kevin]

Hopefully Big E and Kofi will be the tag team while Xavier is more of a mouth piece.
