WWE Monday Night RAW Thread

The thing that gets me about Swagger winning too is they hadn't even built him up. For guys like Christian and Drew they were giving them momentum, just look at how Drew got in it. If they built Swagger up more then I probably wouldn't have been so pissed when he won because to me it was a WTF moment

It isn't as if they had him win the title like Sheamus did. Now having that briefcase, you can be sure he's going to be in some pretty significant angles before cashing it in.

It's kinda the same thing to me though. Just with him having that briefcase you know he's got a title shot and will also get the belt unless he's the first guy to win MITB and lose the title match

Yes, just because he has a guaranteed shot at one of the World titles, doesn't mean he'll win.

tbh i can see him being the first guy to lose...but in all honesty....him being the first guy to lose, could work to his advantage, cos he can like go on a mental streak or something
it was nice seeing someone not predicted to win

That could be the reason why they did it LL, because most people thought Christian would win and some thought Drew so they went the unpredictable route to throw people off

I lol'd when the announcer said when Cena came to the ring "and once again WWE champion."

Swagger, a Raw brand wrestler, cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase on Friday's Smackdown episode and was an integral part of the show.

Ehhh boy *facepalm* the push that Eve is getting is annoying me.

wrestling as a whole is beginning to annoy me... makes me wonder why I watch.

she is gonna win the title next week

When a first time champ is crowned, it's most often a babyface that's getting a ridiculous push.

i love santino!

You talk about a fast count!

Im glad Eve is getting a push. I think shes really improved and proven herself. She may not be the best but she is already better then some of the other divas. Shes trying.

I hope she wins the title. But I dont see that happening.

i dont know what has happened...her on SD was good...shes like Maryse not at all ready for live tv...cos in reality, she has been nothing but a disappointment in near enough all the matches she has been apart of in the past couple of months

Three fucking doses of Cena! SMH!

LMS Match with Cena/Batisa. Great, just great.

Orton v Swagger was BORING! I couldnt get into the match.

Edge for the Next WHC!!

I have a question, I noticed Cena won the title yet AGAIN at wrestlemania. Does anyone know how many times he's held that damn title?

Please no! We don't need Orton, HHH or Batista to be WHC or WWE Champ either. We need new blood.

I like Edge and Orton, but, they are just as guilty as Cena and Trips for getting a *hit load of reigns.

9xs LIE

Is it just me or Randy Orton so much more awesome now? The RKO is a sick move, but not only that, he's just way more awesome now. Like, when he beat Ted & Cody, I was wanting Ted to win, but now I like Orton.

He beat Swagger and I got excited. Swagger seems like a joke as a World Champ, had the same thought for Sheamus.

Interesting. He's always been good.

ive always liked Orton
his wrestling style is a little boring..but eh

Summary / spoilers please
I feel asleep yesterday because I was used to sleeping late, but school ruined my schedule

I have to agree with you but as far as Edge hes never had a lengthy long run like Orton and everyone else has had. Edge does deserve one LONG run then he can be out of the title picture for a while. Maybe he can drop it to John Morrison, someone who should be a main eventer.

Eve won, now if Melina were around shed bury her to get the Divas belt back

Does WWE look EXTREMELY CLEAR & HD to anyone else, this sh!t is REALLY clear tonight, it's like the whole show is taking place in my front room.

I loved it when Nattie slapped Miz. You go girl. Sucks DH had to lose.

Miz's finisher looked so weak!

Eve really needs to go away.

Did anyone else hear all the boos when Cena came out.

Raw is fckin' boring as a muthafuck!

iMPACT! was ok.

lmao @ the effects when Gail and Kelly came out.

I HATE kelly's spinning head scissors that sh!t is so lame and boring!

Nice RAW tonight, but uh.. I think Impact was better.

TNA! TNA! TNA! TNA! TNA!

I agree with you on that.

LMAO at Santino and Hornswaggle

The Santino and Hornswoggle segment was pretty funny, Horsnwoggle running in slow mo was funny.

Yes she does, transitional champion please!

I thought you liked her Mintz, where did this sudden hate come from? :ewwa:

I liked her on SD because she was improving then once she got drafted to Raw she was mainly used as eye candy and when she was in the ring she seemed to have lost the spark she once had. Then she got this title match and it was seriously too soon for her to get the belt. That is what pisses me off the most. If she had lost and got it a couple months later after she had improved more I would've been okay with it. I'd rather women like Alicia who have actually improved quite a lot get a title shot over women like Eve who are good one minute then start sucking the next.

so...no one is watching tonight?


Jericho singing was cool. i'd download that song lol

Punk in the towel was funny.

I'm watching but I posted in the other thread, there's too many discussion threads for these shows lol.

yeah some people only want to chat divas..but i dont think raw will have divas tonight.

lmfao @ Khaluber

Lillian botched...said "Khalubra" and it's "Khaluber"

That's classic Lillian right there.
