Guest Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Has Jeff's Twist of Fate deliberately become more of a Stunner than a Diamond Cutter, or does it just keep going awry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WyattSheepMask Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 RAW takes place from the Sprint Center Arena with build for Sunday's WWE Payback pay-per-view.It's worth noting that WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar is not advertised for tonight. Tonight's show will feature Kalisto vs. Braun Strowman in a Dumpster Match. I hope he dumps the little fucker through the closed lids, assuming they're using a BIFFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daaaaaad! Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Where did you get that from? Not about the Dumpster match but I'm confused as to why anyone would think it worth noting that Lesnar wasn't advertised considering his contract situation and record.

TildeGuy~! Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) I started that rumour down the pub last night, I'm surprised it took this long to come to the board. Edited April 24, 2017 by TildeGuy~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briefcase Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I'm glad its not just me who isn't warming to Balor. Don't see the big deal myself and its quite boring. Should have gone to Smackdown with The Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sick love song Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Finn is going to be pushed because of the lunch boxes, pencil cases, posters, t shirts , nappies , bus stops , BBQ sauce, bananas and creepy teddy bears wwe can print the demon face paint on.

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted April 25, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 25, 2017 Drab. So, so drab. That "statement from Roman Reigns" was a disgrace. Mixing his real life tragedy with a story is wrong anyway but the emphasis being on the match was pure wrestling shit. Dumpster match was no fun. Ponderous Braun is dull. Crowd was dead.

Love-Wilcox Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Throwing Balor out there against both The Club and Samoa Joe without any kind of build or fanfare is just so lazy I don't know where to start. I get they want Balor on the show but did they really have to do it this way ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted April 25, 2017 Awards Moderator Share Posted April 25, 2017 The whole show screams "we don't have our champion and nothing to build this show towards" just like last time Brock was absent champ. It really hurts the show's momentum (not that having a champ around guarantees momentum, but you know what I mean). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted April 25, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 25, 2017 Was interested in the Braun dumpster match. Saw the clip of the end on Youtube and now I'm not. Back to skipping Raw it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted April 25, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 25, 2017 Shocking episode, I thought. As with most weeks, Braun's involvement was the highlight, but sadly it was the only thing that wasn't instantly forgettable. It's no surprise the one guy they're protecting and clearly working hard to treat as a star seems like a star. The complete opposite of Finn Balor and his current "turns up for random match. Michael Cole tells us he's really good, honest" gimmick. No idea if they're aware of it, but they're doing a bang on job making Balor just another wrester.

They didn't conclude some of the feuds before the draft and still have a ppv to get out the way, so you end up with a few guys stuck in limbo (like Finn) waiting for everyone else to finish what they're doing, whilst at the same time unable to really build the matches for Payback where some have been drafted. It's all a bit of an uninspired mess. I'm bored at the moment. I'll stick it out until Monday to watch Payback but I'll probably cancel the Network next week and sign up again for SummerSlam, and remove the series link for Raw & Smackdown. Not interested. Unless Matt becomes broken this Sunday, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
