Don't worry lads, Roman's gonna fight the storm off all by himself and save Raw!

Agent Coulson

Well he won't have his cousin to help tonight if RAW goes ahead he is already back in Miami.

Why's that?

If you don't like something don't waste time or money watching it but its kinda what always happens. Wrestling fans will say they cancelled the Network but be buzzing around Mania.
Wasn't the rumble the worst thing ever based on the incessant moaning

Maybe he realized even he couldn't stop the booing :P

Die Rocky Roman Die chants.

But I don't think Roman has even 10% of The Rock's charisma to save this.

Unless he has a reservoir of untapped promo skills, but even if he did would he be allowed to use them?

Haha pretty ironic that this thread is almost double the size of most raw threads before raw even starts, and there's no actual episode on.

Rock Lesnar

I've a feeling it didnt take Vince much convincing to cancel Raw tonight.

martyos121

Trying to find a way to spend my Monday night/Tuesday morning now that Raw is cancelled. Might try a spot of basket weaving.

They should do an empty arena match for the craic.

I can actually picture Dean Ambrose chanting for himself during that match.

martingriff

I feel sorry for Reigns. Before the injury he was probably getting some where. Since coming back he has not been pushed in any kind of constructive way and then the way they did last night (with the Rock) they have just crapped on his career for the imediate future. I actually like him

martyos121

Got an alert from the app. Raw will turn into a live Smackdown this Thursday! Not too bad! Smackdown officially cancelled in Boston, but will take place live on Thursday evening from Hartford.

Pentecost

WWE Twitter says the live event is cancelled but Raw will still air live tonight at the usual time.

Agent Coulson

Are the NXT guys down in Florida?

Maybe we could have a live 3 hour RAW/NXT intercut with live from WWE HQ segments.

Wishfull thinking really.

It's a live studio show from wwe HQ. Expect lots of interviews, archive clips and what not.

3 hours of Renee?

We can get to see the NXT version of a Rumble where I'm sure people will be happy with whoever wins. Even get the women involved sure.

If only they hadn't brought back Rowan, Ziggler and Ryback, then they could have purchased tickets to be at tonight's show to give them an audience.

Will Sky be showing whatever this turns into?

Oh really :pac: But yet...

Loughc wrote: »

How can they show it live tomorrow night? The USA isn't giving them a 3 hours slot on a Monday and Tuesday night at such short notice.

The PPV could be rescheduled as it was carried on a PPV provider and not a cable network channel. If Raw doesn't go ahead tonight it's not going ahead at all this week. Period.

I dont know what the :pac: is for but if you believe they can reschedule this for tomorrow, in another city, and broadcast it live then you have no idea what you're talking about.

So Raw gets rescheduled. Gets moved to another city and will be shown live... this week too. I guess I "don't know what I am talking about" and you can add a "period" to that Oh and ... :pac:

It's actually being billed as a Smackdown live special not Raw. Mate. :pac:

DM_7

Raw will be on SyFy, during Smackdowns slot and in the XL Centre where it was supposed to be held tonight.

Smackdown in boston is cancelled.

It'll be billed as a joint branded show. Featuring both Raw and Smackdown wrestlers. Watch the show later tonight and you'll see.
Split hairs all you want

There's no brand split anymore?!? What are you talking about!

The same wrestlers appear on raw and smackdown.

Opps, meant to edit my message there.
accidentally deleted it urgh.... But meant two shows in one. You know, raw and smackdown for one week being one show. A supershow.

No need to worry about the accidental delete I quoted your original post anyway. Anyway I don't see it being a supershow i think it will be billed as a Live Smackdown special and as it will air in Smackdown's slot.

Special?
So you agree that it will be a 'supershow' .... dude you split so many hairs.

Loughc

I just mean it's special as in its live and not taped. But let's just agree to disagree and leave it be as we have a better chance getting Reigns over last night as we do agreeing :pac:

Firstly its a Smackdown live event thats broadcasting on Thursday not RAW. They already had their production in place or en route, tickets sold for the venue, the TV time slot in place. They just needed the venue to be vacant on Thursday. :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:

Come on lads. There's pedantic and there's this.

In an update on the WWE app it has been revealed that Daniel Bryan was the one who murdered Jeff Hardys dog and not Matt Hardy.

Another revelation occurred on the WWE network during an in-depth interview with Snitsky we learned that it is in fact "Daniel Bryan's fault"

According to the App tonight on...whatever they're calling this airing Roman Reigns and Lensar (with Heyman) will come face to face. Reigns will address his win and the reaction and "courtesy of the WWE network" the Triple Threat and the Rumble match will be given away for free on TV.

I expect the Rumble to be sweetened to fcuk!

Edit: this is quite the fcuk you to the paying customers! I mean you're giving your main event/MOTY candidate away for free?! If I'd paid $55 for a PPV and they're showing both main events and having watched the sh!tstorm of a rumble match, I'd be incredibly annoyed!

CastorTroy

Can imagine the Rumble being edited to include Reigns' eliminations from last year so it looks like he did something.
