Anyone here remember that falconarrow guy on Reddit (who seemed to have insider information on storylines/debuts)? He's back, and suddenly I'm looking forward to Raw, the crafty bastard.

Regardless of whatever trash last night was, watch Raw from beginning to end tonight.


You just might get an early christmas present.

Then most recently...

I know what it is and as of now it begins the show.


Always subject to change though.

Meltzer confirmed what /u/falconarrow said.


This might be my last Raw. I was heavily leaning towards stopping watching after the Roman instant-heal at the end of the match. Whatever this surprise is will decide one way or the other. 

 

I like Brock/Ambrose, I love Owens, and New Day is always awesome. But if I could pay say $5 a month and just get NXT, I would do that.

Well, Holy Sheetz....Shane O'Mac just appeared on RAW to a sstunning crowd ovation.

now it has been ruined by Shane vs Undertaker, Hell in a Cell for control of Raw/the company.  That kinda flopped after a good buildup.

Wow, can't believe Shane is back, that's awesome. Not so awesome they just threw him into a match with Undertaker in a HitC? For control of RAW whatever? What is this, 2002?

 

Also, guess that was right about whoever was facing UT at WM wasn't an active roster wrestler lol I wonder how many bumps Shane will take, and how much he can go at his age now. I mean, the dude is 15 years older now, hasn't been in a ring in the same amount of years I assume, and well, UT isn't a spring chicken either.

Holly ######, I really didn't see that coming! I got goosebumps when Shane's music hit. Best moment of RAW, no doubt about it. As for the match with Taker, don't worry, he won't wrestle, he will have someone else to fight for him. And there can be only one of 3 men: Sting, Angle or Goldberg. My money goes to Goldberg.

I'm going with Sting.

Well that would be the obvious choice, that's why I don't think it will happen. People EXPECT to see that and if this year's WM is a follow-up to last year's one, when we got both DX and nWo with HUGE reactions, they won't deliver something so predictable. At least that's what I hope. :)

I'm thinking the opposite, that because it's the obvious and predictable choice, that's what's gonna happen. WWE have a habit for it; it's only once in a blue moon that we get a real big surprise like last night's return of the Shane-O-Mac (which I would've commented on here if there wasn't a tweet stuck in the text box on the mobile site that I can't clear).

Because that's what people wanted for so many years. They already got Sting, the other big one that's still missing is Goldberg. Like I said in a previous post, I don't know what's with this guy, but his lack of skills, either in wrestling or on mic, are well compensated by his charisma and intensity. I find it incredible that to this day there is NO one that got so much love from the crowd (a powerhouse I mean). People always loved him and he always got incredible reactions from fans, imagine the reaction he would get after so many years. For me, this is the final moment I want to experience before I quit watching wrestling. There's no point to go on, today I don't get even 5% of the excitement I once got, and that's not necessarily because of the product, but because of the age, the other priorities that I have,  etc. I guess I'll always be stuck in the WCW period, that was a great part of my childhood, that's why I'm always hyped when we get returns like at last year's WM, or Booker's Rumble return and so on.

Vince dropped an F-bomb on Raw, so expect him to get a 60-day suspension. /s Or worse...

 

Quote

Vince McMahon, the sports-entertainment impresario who turned professional wrestling into a billion-dollar juggernaut, has fired himself from WWE for swearing on live television.

 

“We cannot allow that kind of crude language on-air,” McMahon told reporters this morning after giving his notice of termination to the WWE Board of Directors.

 

When confronting his son Shane, who made a surprise return to WWE on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, an enraged McMahon uttered the f-word (not “fake,” the other one).

 

The mogul vowed to give his son a “[expletive] beating,” which sparked controversy not only for its use of a curse word, but also for its implication that Vince could ever beat Shane, who once fell off the TitanTron for crying out loud.

 

Upon firing himself, McMahon was initially infuriated, but eventually admitted: “Vince screwed Vince.”

There is a strange listing on Ticketmaster for the Monday Night Raw in Baltimore, Maryland the night after the pay-per-view in Newark, New Jersey that is now Extreme Rules: As of this writing, the show is billed as “WWE Monday Night RAW vs. WWE.” On one hand, this could be absolutely nothing, as Ticketmaster listings for WWE events being incorrect and/or oddly formatted is not out of the ordinary at all. On the other hand, this sounds like it plays directly into the Shane McMahon storyline that started on last night’s edition of Raw: If Shane beats The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match at WrestleMania, he gets control of Raw, or at least that’s how it was specified in the promo.

 

Again, it could easily be nothing, but today, it’s very easy to read it as something, so we’ll have to see what happens.

Well, as for Sting vs Undertaker at Wrestlemania- is Sting even well enough to wrestle after his neck injury?  I haven't heard anything about it yet, so no ideas.  Still trying to figure our how Shane can make it "some one else" being in the match instead of himself-  it would have to be something in the way Vince worded the "deal".

Fan theory time...

Quote

On the August 2, 1999 episode of RAW (available on the Network), Shane McMahon disbands the Corporate Ministry. Starting at about the 25:12 mark, Shane says:


"Now as it relates to the Corporate Ministry, the entire Corporate Ministry is now free to do whatever they want to whomever they want, until I deem it necessary to bring everybody back together ...."


So all Shane needs to do win control of RAW is to recall the Corporate Ministry and direct the Undertaker to lay down for him at Mania.
