RAW January 19th, 2015 Live Discussion

We will see. It was just my idea.

Nah, that's cool. I'd just prefer it at Mania. But to each their own.

I'd love to see a cash in by Rollins, regardless. And I would just hate to see him have a short title reign, that's all.

 

[Crimson]

Right, me too. But I fell like it's a good way to do what I just said in the previous post. Lesnar is a big name. Even though, Lesnar never wrestled on RAW since he has returned.

I'd like to see a bigger reign, though. But if Reigns wins at WM, I don't see WWE taking the title from Reigns this fast.

Lesnar is paid per appearance, so I doubt they'll have him wrestle on RAW, they'll save their money for the PPVs, most likely.

- Why not? It's only gonna make Roman a bigger face than he is already. If Rollins cashed in on Reigns at Mania, we'd get the former Shield feud and that is cool, in my book. Reigns would prolly regain the title at SummerSlam.

Speaking of ruining big moments, WWE likes chapping D-Bry on the ass, so I really see Rollins cashing in on Bryan at WrestleMania.
Or, Bryan can win the Rumble and still fail to beat Lesnar, then Heyman can turn on Lesnar and help Rollins to cash in (Lesnar's contract expires on post-WM Raw episode).
Plus, they teased Rollins/Heyman working together in the near future this past Thursday on SmackDown, so that one's possible.
There are a bunch of scenarios, really. But we'll see what happens.

I can only see Lesnar appearing in the Raw Reunion segment

Yes, I can see him finishing what he started a week before SummerSlam, when he crashed Hogan's B-day party, but Cena showed up and Lesnar made himself scarce.

 

[Jacob Fox]

If he wins this match, he won't be a cowardly heel as WWE books him nowadays. All he needs is a clean win over someone big, like Lesnar. Being WWE Champion in the Wrestlemania Season means something.

I don't know. I Rollins's recent behavior shed a lot of that cowardly stigma. Yeah, he had some big guys in the ring with him when he was forcing Cena's hand and it doesn't take much courage to intimidate Paul Heyman, but I still think his attitude lately has done some work on its own to make his character stronger. The Smackdown segment aabout cashing in on Lesnar, I feel, helped as well. Sure, Lesnar wasn't there, but there are several times when Lesnar wasn't supposed to be present and showed up when someone threatened Heyman. It would have been reasonable for Rollins to assume that was going to happen again. I

Agree, Rollins totally comes across to me as an opportunist. If the Authority just wants to hand him a title he'll be happy to take it, if his goons want to help him out, more power to him, but he CAN get it done on his own.

He's not the Miz.

Rollins kind of reminds me of Edge (especially when he was with Vickie), and when it comes to him being an opportunist, he'll take calculated risk, play little mind games with you (the Rollins/Heyman segment from last week's SD episode is a perfect example of that) and he'll strike when you don't see it coming.

Which is exactly what I'm hoping to see go down at Mania. Mr. MITB turns into WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

 

[Just Kevin]

I'm still holding onto hope that they are going to announce Legends House season 2 with the cast of Ric Flair, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Sean Waltman (X-Pac), Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, Jimmy Hart (for a second run), and Ron Simmons as the token black guy.

That would be so much fun to watch and it might be the first time we see a real fight in the house lol

We'll see, but the word right now is that The New Age Outlaws may be involved in a 'quick program' with The Ascension to get 'em ready and put 'em over.

Well... Here's to hoping!

Speculation On Sting Appearing At Tonight's WWE RAW Reunion, Backstage Notes From Dallas

There has been a lot of speculation about Sting appearing on tonight's WWE RAW Reunion show from Dallas because Sting lives there and he's due for an appearance to further his WrestleMania 31 feud with Triple H.

As of 5pm EST, all of the top stars for tonight's show were backstage but Sting was not. If he were to make his RAW debut tonight, it's likely that he would be kept hidden until it was time to come out.

One name who is backstage for tonight is Sheamus. We noted earlier that he may be making his return at this week's SmackDown tapings.
