WWE RAW 1st July 2013 LIVE Discussion - Heyman Guys vs. PTP

[Dale]

1. 'Heyman Guys' vs. The Prime Time Players
Last week, CM Punk seemed unsure of how he felt about receiving assistance from Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel in fending off a 2-on-1 attack from The Prime Time Players. This week, the pair of "Paul Heyman Guys" will team up to face Young & O'Neil in tag action. With Brock Lesnar's recent attack on Punk causing friction between Punk and Heyman, a tag team victory could be just thing to smooth things over within Heyman's circle.

2. Is Mark Henry nothing but a liar?
Mark Henry relished in fooling the entire WWE Universe into believing he was retiring. Now The World's Strongest Man declares he will dethrone WWE Champion John Cena at Money in the Bank and walk off with his title. Will Henry’s prediction come true on July 14? Will he finally capture a title that has eluded him his entire career? Or, is Henry's championship claim just another big lie? Who will make the next move as the WWE Title Match at Money in the Bank fast approaches

3. Is the party coming to an end for Del Rio?
Dolph Ziggler doesn’t want to accept the fact that he lost the World Title to Alberto Del Rio at WWE Payback. Ever since, he's been hell-bent on letting the WWE Universe know it. On Friday's SmackDown, The Showoff crashed Del Rio's "Championship Fiesta" and smashed Ricardo Rodriguez with a guitar. Will Del Rio ever get to relish in regaining the World Title, or will Ziggler continue to chase him all the way to their Money in the Bank match?

4. Will AJ Lee or Kaitlyn strike next?
First it was Divas Champion AJ Lee who infuriated Kaitlyn by donning a muscle suit to mock her last week on Raw. On SmackDown, the Hybrid Diva got a measure of retribution when her AJ outfit led to a distraction, causing AJ to lose her match to Natalya. As tensions boil over in an emotional war between the two former best friends, what will happen next?

5. Is an angry Big Red Monster coming to Raw?
Last week’s Raw marked a milestone moment in Daniel Bryan’s career when he forced Randy Orton to tap out. On SmackDown, The Viper scored a win over Kane when Bryan shoved Kane back into the ring to continue the match — and right into the waiting fangs of The Viper and an RKO. The loss brought a smile to Bryan's face. How will The Big Red Monster respond this week? Tune in at 8/7 CT on USA Network to find out.

Still find it odd that the Prime Time Players were chosen to face Heyman's Guys. They had barely been used and then suddenly they are facing this big new group. Going to be a very one sided match. Good to see another tag team back on RAW though.

Henry needs to be given promo time, just let him talk because he is great on the mic.

I assume that AJ vs. Kaitlyn for the Divas title will be added to MITB. The Usos vs. The Shield for the tag titles should be added as well.

Been enjoying RAW this past month so hopefully it delivers again tomorrow.

I don't even take the Primetime Playas as threats to anyone let alone Axel or Punk. It's great they hyped that for the last week because a match of that quality sure deserves promotion. I expect something to go down that will influence the development of Axel/Punk and that is it. Pretty standard, half ass booking.

Most looking for to some Henry/Cena interaction which should be top notch to say the least and Paul Heyman runnin' his mouth. Hopefully throw together some matches involving the folks in both MITB ladder matches throughout the show.

Piss Timers better lose in <4 minutes.

 

[zigglerHEEL]

Would really like for the Wyatt family to debut but since that probably wont happen I'm just looking for good progress in the storylines heading towards MITB...

 

[John McHenry]

You know the highlights at the top don't really speak to me.

 

[Andrew]

Cena/Del Rio been announced. That could be a good match.

More intrugied on where they are going with BRYAN.

If they don't get more than 4 video promos tonight, then they clearly are debuting in the main event tonight.

 

[John McHenry]

Fuck what a god awful way to open the show

 

[Cwalker]

The heat Vickie gets is crazy sometimes. She doesn't even have to say a word to get booed

 

[zigglerHEEL]

[Crippler]

Cena/Del Rio could be fun

 

[Chris]

I don't see why they made that such a big deal really.

 

[John McHenry]
