WWE RAW 7th May 2012 - LIVE Discussion

[Troy]

Brock Snaps
HHH returned last week and said that Lesnar wouldn't be getting everything his way anymore, all the extra provisions that Johnny Ace agreed to were scrapped and that didn't make Lesnar a happy man. In response Lesnar locked in his kimura and "broke" HHH's arm. Will either wrestler appear on RAW this week?

Johnny Ace Attacks Cena
Johnny Ace made the surprise announcement on RAW that he would face Cena in a 1 on 1 match at Over The Limit. He then decided to get the upperhand on Cena by leading a 3 on 1 attack on Cena where Lord Tensai did even more damage to Cena's injured arm. How will Cena respond to this attack? Will Lord Tensai be added to this match in some way? Will we see some Rocky inspired training videos for Johnny?

A.W. Signs Epico, Primo and Rosa
After RAW last week Abraham Washington finally signed his first clients for his All World Talent Agency. It was a trying night for the team though as they lost their tag team titles to the team of R-Truth and Kofi Kingston. Will they have their rematch tonight? Will A.W. sign more wrestlers to his group this week?

Daniel Bryan vs. CM Punk
Daniel Bryan won the beat the clock challenge last week to get a WWE title shot against CM Punk. How will this feud develop and will it again be about who is the Best In the World?

Layla's Back
Layla is the Divas Champion and started her championship reign with a quick defence over the exiting Bella Twins. Who will be next in line for the Divas Title? Will we see Kharma return?

Tune in for that and more on RAW this week. Be sure to join in the discussion and talk about the show as it happens with other WS members.​

I hope Kharma doesn't return as I'd like to see Natalya/Layla first with a short feud because I'd like to see Natalya/Beth before Beth/Kharma in all honesty.

Bryan/Punk is just a dream come true, I cannot wait to see what both have to say. I hope they refer to their old days here.

AW signing Epico & Primo, this should be a good storyline. I'd like to see a Tag Division Storyline as we haven't really seen one since Nexus/Corre

Johnny Ace attacking Cena is very interesting. I see Lord Tensai v. Cena happening this week somehow.

Lesnar/HHH storyline could just as well be scrapped, they state they won't use Lesnar as much so there's a good way to suspend him until Summerslam or something.

 

[Troy]

I can't see Natalya getting a title shot anytime soon as she hasn't really been pushed that much. I just realised that Kelly Kelly is the only active diva left on the RAW roster so they need a Smackdown Diva to get a title shot. What I think would work well is if Rosa Mendes got the next title shot. A.W. is their new manager and he could show his worth by getting his new client a title shot. I don't think that the match would be any good but it works in a storyline sense. I hope that we see plenty of A.W. this week to follow up on the signing and to actually give some airtime to the new stable. I also want him to sign another wrestler to his talent agency.

I see HHH appearing on RAW to address Lesnar and "suspend" him for a month as a way to write him out of the show for a little bit.

I can see Lord Tensai getting involved somehow in that PPV match, I think that Johnny Ace may make it a lumberjack match but with Lord Tensai, Sakamoto, Eve and possibly David Otunga if he is back by then as the only lumberjacks. He will stack the deck against Cena by having his henchmen at ringside.

Can't wait to see what Punk and Bryan do this week to kick off the build for their title match.

 

[Dale]

If anything, I hope we get some new feuds taking place because i'm just not getting any real good vibes from this show.

 

[Crippler]

The only thing i'm really looking forward to is Danielson/Punk and what they do with the feud e.g. is it gonna be about who's the better wrestler or are they gonna over book it and get personal. I'm fully expecting HHH to come out and suspend Lesnar. Ace/ feud I HAVE ZERO INTEREST IN. Diva's are pretty much mehhh. A.W. Signing Epico, Primo and Rosa is gonna be hilarious cause i'm 99% sure nothing will happen with this and they will continue to be jobbers.

 

[The Cork]

No Lesnar = nobody watching this show.

Wonder if they'll acknowledge Trips being Mayweather's bitch boy on Saturday.

 

[Big Red Jericho Punk]

That picture of Layla is greatness. It's May so wrestling tends to fade out a bit although at least it won't be an outrage like last year when Christian had a two day title reign. Punk-Bryan is the only thing that's appealing to me. A possible Orton-Jericho feud would be another but WWE never remembers things.

 

[John McHenry]

I kinda expect Brock to be their and Ace to be giving him what he promised. Basically being Brocks bitch. As for the rest of the show can't be as bad as last week.

 

[Andrew]

There's a lot that can happen especially hearing Mason Ryan is now Ziggler's bodyguard. That'd be interesting if played out on RAW.

Looking forward to the show, just one more hour!

 

[PHX]

They don't wanna use up all of Brock's dates so I'm pretty sure they are gonna use this time to keep him off the show until after OTL

 

[Crippler]

it's that time of the day.

 

[Prodigy]

Punk and Bryan need to open the show.

 

[Heisenberg]

MR. EXCITEMENT!!

Btw, why is Cena still the headline storyline when he isnt even champ?

 

[Crippler]

I'm begging WWE please remove his theme music.

 

[John McHenry]

Ace's music is too similar to JBL
