A contact signing segment is such a lazy thing in WWE storylines in recent years. Hate them. Just a way to get another week out of the way before a PPV without having to put any effort into a storyline.

Over/under on the number of roll up pins followed by a distraction tonight, cactus mac88. :P

Will Roman Reigns be taken out of the WWE Championship ladder match?

What a tease :rolleyes:

Cue a show ending brawl,

There will be a contract signing for the WWE Championship ladder match.

That'll be best for business, Vickie Guerrero hasn't been relevant a while now.

Fallout from last week’s Raw, will Vickie Guerrero be fired?

Moneymaker

Contract signings are just overdone by now. When done right, e.g Jericho and HBK before Unforgiven in 2008, they can be awesome.

Unfortunately they are completely watered down now.

CastorTroy

Imagine if the Raw before a PPV just consisted of all the contract signings for that PPV.

Also pretty poor business management not having all contracts signed so close to the PPV. I mean we have to have negotiations, revisions, legal experts, etc. All very badly organised.



:pac:

jaykhunter

Agreed, contract signings need to go away. Can you explain in kayfabe, why some matches are made on the spot, and others have a public contract signing?

The same way they have a 3 hour(or 2 hours for Smackdown) live show with no main event planned until the beginning of the show. You'd think for a big company, they'd be organised instead of "Okay, we have 3 hours to fill. Let's wing it"

To be fair, its kinda what the WWE do in real life.

Undertaker expected to be present tonight, according to sources

Lithium93_

Why would The Undertaker show up to a random Monday Night Raw, unless he has some kind of major announcement to make.

Angron

So, Vickie to get fired tonight?

I thought she was gone ages ago tbh.

J. Marston

Eww.

Professional Griefer

Unreal

Angron

Huh, I thought she'd sic Alicia Fox on her. And Vickie is a face for the first time in 9 years or so.

briany

Good stuff. You know Stef's a great heel when she's able to put Vicki over as a face!

Angron

I'm trying to imagine Vickie pulling off the Three Amigos.

This will make my life.

Basically a Smackdown rerun apart from that.

Rjd2

Their really is no reason to watch Smackdown is their? Any somewhat original match which was that handicap between between those guys gets repeated on Raw.:rolleyes:

Can you name these sources so we can read that ourselves, or is that somehow an impossibility?

paconnors

I Wonder what no hoper Rusev will be walking over tonight

P_1

I do wish that the whole world would fcuk off at this stage

Angron

Congrats WWE. I'm now completely sick of the "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands" song, they ran it completely into the ground.

Rjd2

when does rusev lose to cena?

ricero

Rusev is raw !

A Rogue Hobo

I never know how to feel about Rusev. Its all so 1993. Its equally both a good and bad thing.

paconnors

I'd say if old Hacksaw was 20 years younger he would take on Rusev, would be a great match

Was literally just thinking that too. Especially with that video just there.

Paige's voice.

Angron

Cameron is painful to listen to.

Agent Coulson

I'd love Sheamus to come out and tell Pagie that the pale skin no tan is his gimmick!

paconnors

I Believe Bo-Dallas has a Black Eye. Bolieve lol

A Rogue Hobo

There needs to be a Mr. Bo-tterfingers t-shirt made pronto

andyman

I roared out laughing when Bo said "pardon my Bo-tterfingers" after Titus slapped the mic out of his hand

J. Marston

HHH taking a dump on RVD there.

Furious-Red

Have'nt bee a fan of Bo but that segment after the match was funny

Angron

Damn it JBL, 12.5% is one in eight, not one in seven.

Angron

Damn it I love Dean Ambrose.

andyman

I think Ambrose is the next Eddie Guerrero.

There, I said it.

Angron

I'm watching this match and all I can think of is if Dolph tagged with Cody, they could call themselves Ziggy Stardust.

I dunno, I reckon he'll do better than Vickie.

Was waiting for that!

Seriously though, he can play the face very well despite his character being that more suited to a heel.

Angron

Good memories with this music.

martingriff

Have not heard that music in ages sounds as great as ever. Hope Vivhi goes face and goes against the Authority

Oh sweet Jusus a mud fight bringing all the retro back

A Rogue Hobo

Credit where credit is due WWE have handled this one night face turn of Vickie beautifully for her evident swan song, for a woman with no eexperience in pro wrestling, she turned out to be one of WWE's most memorable female characters.

Angron

Not the best way to end your career.

Eire-Dearg

Vince is definitely writing this ****.
