Raw 08/02/2016 *Spoilers*

johnnyryan89

Generic muscle is given a weightlifting belt.. They should just cut to the chase and give him the Jackhammer and Spear.

martyos121

Hopefully that'll write Ryback off until after Wrestlemania.


Wrestlemania 40.

ricero

Ryback rulez !

martyos121

Who did Sandow piss off so much that he can't even get into the Job Squad?

Angron

Never thought I'd live to see Adam Rose win a match again.

Who did Titus piss off so much that's he losing to the Job Squad?

This Lesnar Ambrose stuff should have been saved for mania

martyos121

That fits Ambrose's character so well, brilliant stuff!

Bret Hart

Sasha looking as hot as ever.

Bret Hart

The return of Sexual Chocalate.

johnnyryan89

Sexual Chocolate still has it haha

Bret Hart

I love Xavier's You Tube channel.

martyos121

Mark Henry absolutely belongs with New Day.

Mr.Nice Guy

Heh Lillian made sure she didn't mess up this time.

The SLLLAAAAAMMMMMYYYY award winning...

Bret Hart

Another break FFS !!!!

martyos121

Looks like Bryan won't be getting more than a few minutes at this rate. I know he's not a big talker but surely he deserves 10 minutes at least?

martyos121

Haha Big E rolls out of the ring, then straight back in for a 3D! Nice save.

Mr.Nice Guy

Looks like Jey Uso got hurt.

And now a heel turn.

Bret Hart

Well I didn't expect that.

martyos121

Finally they've made the Dudleys relevant again!

johnnyryan89

Hopefully that's the Usos off screen for awhile and about time they turned the Dudley Boys heel again.

Mr.Nice Guy

I wonder will they have the whole locker room come out to applaud him?

Bret Hart

This is going too be depressing .

J. Marston

Undertaker's gong will hit and they'll have a match at Wrestlemania and it'll be great and he'll be back full time and everything will be fine.

johnnyryan89

Now I know why I don't watch Raw live as much, ad breaks must add up to nearly half the run time.

Think it will be a bit like Edges, have him speak and thank the fans to be met by some of the guys in the back.

Kane guaranteed to come out.

Mr.Nice Guy

Regal cameo too I'd say.

J. Marston

That was lovely.

Sad, but lovely.

johnnyryan89

Could have gave him the whole three hour slot and I bet he'd have happily talked all night, such an amazing guy.

Mr.Nice Guy

A nice send-off.

Best of luck to him and Brie.

Chip Whitley

Just watched a few YouTube clips on the WWE channel there. 2 things I had to point out, now that the Dudleyz seem to be heel, that makes room for a new face team (Enzo & Big Cass?) and when Woods handed Renee the calculator, did anyone else cop that it said 8008135?

Loughc

Did anyone else watch the bit on the Network afterwards, jesus Vince was in bits, say what you like about him and the WWE, but he really loves the product and the wrestlers.

Moneymaker

Classy send off which almost sounds like an oxymoron when it's talking about WWE.

So glad they didn't try any bs. Let the man talk for as long as he needs to. He'd more then earned that right.

Angron

It is rather a sad state of affairs when we should feel relieved that WWE didn't humiliate someone who was retiring. I still remember the awful Lita send off in 2006, made so much worse by the classy and heartfelt goodbye Trish had gotten only a few months before.

den87

Did anyone Sky+ this? Did it record the whole lot? Hoping mine didnt cut out as i heard it ran a bit over the time

Lord TSC

That was amazing, heartbreaking, but a perfect send-off. God, the crowd reaction....there's been no-one in a decade thats got that level of a reaction, and not sure if we'll see another like him.

In all the focus on Bryan, should point out that I thought it was a pretty good Raw too.

Not sure how I felt about the Ambrose cheap shot, but I guess it fits the character and the story, and you'd imagine it sets up a massively ****ed off Brock. I really would love to see some finish that lets Ambrose win the match though.

Dudleys turning heel was smart, though the crowd seemed waaaay to into it :P

Seeing and hearing the reaction bryan got just reminds me of how badly theyve handled reigns whole push.

Bryan turn to mega stardom was really so natural nothing forced about it except for the wwe push against him. Theyve never allowed regins to get the support he needed to be a top guy instead of telling us hes there top guy.

Omackeral

Bryan's speech left me feeling a mixture of happy and sad. Happy he got out before he destroyed himself but sad for the man himself, who comes across as the most grateful and humble guy ever, he truly loves the business and what it have him. A class act all the way through. He deserves everything he's gotten success wise. His line of "that's what Brie says everynight" to the crowds YES! chants was legit the funniest thing I've heard in years!!

In other notes, I'm glad the Dudley Boyz went heel. I hate when they get the crowd chanting "tables" and counting with them, it's so not them. Also, the crowd hate the Usos. They're beyond bland.

Did anyone else catch what it said on Xavier's calculator when Renee interrupted New Day ?

martyos121

I have to say, that was a great Raw from top to bottom last night, even when you leave out Bryan's promos and his speech. The matches were good, they advanced some storylines well and the Dudleys turning was a genuine surprise, and a good one at that.

Crowd was pretty much dead for a lot of it and it speaks volumes about the popularity Daniel Bryan has with the fans that they got so loud. Easily the best Raw of the year so far and they'll do well to top it IMO.

aaaaaaaahhhhhh

Agreed, didn't FF through any of it.
As much as I wanted to FF through the Miz segment, it was just that damn good.

I did, on the previous page man :)

Rock Lesnar

Lesnar was great i taught, i posted it before, and i know i am way out, but i just cant see him not been in the main event at mania, the man is just quality and should not be wasted on the biggest card of the year.

Terrific send off for Bryan, Vince actually looked genuine in his applause for him, not sure if it was because he was actually pleased for him or its because he wont have to push him again because of the fans

Follow the buzzards...

And all that ****e is coming Lesnar's way

It's going to be such a waste seeing Lesnar vs the Wyatts at WM, I'd rather another HHH Lesnar match at WM and have Reigns and Ambrose face off over the boring HHH Reigns & Lesnar Wyatt combo they're forcing on us.

I know, i just don't want to believe it can happen, hence why im hoping because the wyatts have stayed away from Lesnar since the rumble that that idea has been scrapped

Nope they've only stayed away so when they interfere at FastLane "We won't see it coming".

It's standard Wyatt practice, between programs he tends to stay quiet until his next random attack.

Stop it, stop it, stop it, I know, i just dont want it to happen

grames_bond

Every promo Wyatt is currently doing is referencing taking down giants and monsters.....they are 100% priming him to go after the beast, it is not even up for discussion - no matter how much no one wants it to happen!

I don't even think Heyman could make sense out of a Bray Wyatt nonsensical ramblling bullsh!t of a promo!
