WWE RAW 29th August 2011 - LIVE Discussion

Nash vs Punk shouldn't be too bad.

Yeah lots of people hate Nash as a wrestler but then again everyone wants CM Punk vs. SCSA to happen yet SCSA can barely wrestle these days.. Bit like Nash hey?

Nash wouldn't have been signed unless he was fine to wrestle and it looks like he is, they did take a while to re-do his contract so he must have gone through all medical testings and such to see if he could compete. CM Punk must have wanted the match against him anyways, so don't rule it out because it could be a decent match.

I think we're just having one Supershow and then Super Smackdown don't think the extensions over he just botched the presentation.

I have read that he said "for the forseeable future" Smackdown wrestlers will be appearing on RAW. It sounds like more of a one week deal.

 

[Andrew]

Brand split would be cool. I'm all for it, this kind of feels like PG Era is over when it's not though.

Ziggler's out now, I seriously dig his theme remixed.

But in their primes Austin was a much better wrestler than Nash. Plus Austin can still walk whereas Nash struggles to walk. Punk vs. Austin would be a much better match than Punk vs. Nash.

 

[Andrew]

Anyone predicting Swagger to come out and interrupt Ziggler as a payback from last week?

Might be the case, but I believe this match will be still good enough even if CM carries the match.

 

[Troy]

Hopefully Ziggler comes out of this match against Orton looking strong. No need to bury the US champion a few weeks before the NOC PPV.

 

[Andrew]

Orton seems to be rushing things in the ring by the looks of it, anybody noticing this?

 

[Troy]

I am coming into the match with low expectations. Even with Punk in there I don't expect Punk to be able to work miracles with Nash.

 

[Andrew]

Another ad break. This match seems a little rushed...

I wonder what else is booked for tonight.

 

[Prodigy]

This is why I hate Orton. Getting back into the ring after a finisher on the outside ffs.

 

[Andrew]

HE got back into the ring at 7...

Learn to sell, I'd be back in at 9 or 9 1/2

 

[Andrew]

Anyone going to see the movie 'Warrior' looks like it's based on UFC.

 

[Andrew]

Swagger is seen backstage watching the match.

 

[Troy]

Swagger watching from backstage. Wouldn't surprise me if he comes out to the ring later.

Ziggler looking good against Orton.
