WWE RAW 3rd October 2011 - LIVE Discussion

[John McHenry]

That would be one big turn around. But why would Punk have cost himself the title?

By the way we crossed the 400 post mark. Excellent work everyone.

He said it in a promo once already he hasn't been about titles etc. He was about upsetting the status quo. You have Nash on Twitter saying he'd back up Punk. You have everything you need to make it seem as if it were the longest angle WWE has played out in sometime do I think that's whats going on...No. But you could make it work.

I was surprised at Miz & Truth not attacking HHH to end RAW.

Perhaps they could be the one starting RAW next week?

Not sure what they can do with those two especially since they "filed a lawsuit". I see them sending in another video.

HHH has appeared on Smackdown a lot though. Most of the Smackdown roster fucked off. WWE is in tatters. Big things to be expected!

I still think that they can get away with it being that Teddy Long runs Smackdown and that wrestlers are safe there. Whatevers happens it should be great to watch.

Fair enough it just does seem odd that someone would cost themselves the title. As you said he did say that his goal was to upset the status quo and this long angle would certainly have done that.

I like your thinking on Punk there...

I guess we just gotta wait and see to what happens next week on RAW, It sure is going to be interesting.

I might watch it next week, could be late because I have to drop a friend at the airport.

 

[Troy]

To the other members viewing this thread don't be shy. Post your thoughts on what went down on RAW tonight. Even if you have only read the results add your feedback on what this means for WWE and RAW going forward. Join in the fun.

Someone just mentioned FCW. I was watching FCW vids on Youtube and Laurinitis appears on there too! Could work imo.

 

[Andrew]

I'd mark out if FCW appeared on RAW next week.

Seth Rollins & Ambrose...

It could work.

 

[Andrew]

RAW in Oklahoma next week, we might not see FCW Wrestlers..

 

[Troy]

I'd mark out if FCW appeared on RAW next week.

Seth Rollins & Ambrose...

It could work.

If they have one match from FCW it has to be a match between those two because their feud has been incredible.

 

[Andrew]

I agree.

I guess Smackdown could reveal a bit more about RAW, I feel Teddy Long could open the show or something

 

[Troy]

I definitely think that Smackdown will open with Teddy Long explaining that RAW and Smackdown are two seperate things and that Smackdown will continue.

Maybe this will be the end of the SuperShow idea and they will go back to the split rosters?

 

[Andrew]

Possibly, the supershow concept was stupid anyways.

Just reading through and I've just IQd Raw for tomorrow night here in Aus so I can watch it if I'm not home in time tomorrow arvo.

I'd need to see it properly to gain a proper understanding, but just for my own interest, were blokes like Cena, Punk, Morrison and Kingston all out there in the ring as well?

 

[The New F'n Show]

Was a very good show in my opinion. Ending leaves a lot of possibilities but I think you are going way too far with FCW guys. They will keep the lawsuit thing going and get trips removed no full fledged strike though even with the walkout that was to just make a point. Was I the only one who thought the 12 man tag was the best Raw match in like 2 years? Ton of action was surprised at the lack of excitement during it. Expect a Teddy or Laurinitis promo to kick off SD but rest of the show will go as normal.

 

[Seak]

Decent RAW, but the crowd ruined a lot of it by being completely dead until the last match and segment.

First off, this is the first time in a while that RAW started with a match. It was a good sign of things to come as this RAW had more matches than segments, which is great imo.

The final segment was done decently. I was expecting the heels to walk out while the faces stayed, so I was pleasantly surprised that this segment went beyond that. It leaves a lot of questions for next week, but with WWEs track record, I'm not expecting anything amazing. I highly doubt we'll see anything from FCW, wrestlers who are gone, or NXT. Triple H will probably start the show with some announcement (maybe he steps down, maybe not) but the rest of the roster will be there and wrestling. It was a walk out after all, not a strike.
