Monday Night RAW July 25th 2016 *Battleground SPOILERS*

Mr.Nice Guy

I think it will be Rollins vs Reigns unfortunately.

Th fatal four way aspect I'm sure will mean Finn won't be involved in the decision, i.e. someone else takes the pinfall.

Sasha to win the women's championship

Nah, shenanigans tonight (Dana) and then a stipulation that no-one be at ringside for Summerslam where Sasha will win.

I'd say she loses tonight due to more cheating from Charlotte, and she'll win the title at Summerslam for her big moment then.

Agent Coulson

How long till we get the Seth is Steph's bit on the side story line.

Faugheen

Cesaro, Owens, Zayn and Balor in this one, please.

In reality there wasn't a whole lot they could do considering everyone knew he was going to be there tonight.

If they immediately throw the rocket on him, then it'll be incredible.

Got the loudest cheer out of the lot as well.

You're right, but I would have preferred his first appearance on the show to be his entrance. Just stepping up on the stage like that when his name was called was just a bit meh imo.

martyos121

Got a fright there when I thought they changed Balor's amazing theme.

Faugheen

Ah ****e, missed Rusev there.

Lithium93_

I got goosebumps, can't quiet believe that Finn's actually on RAW.

martyos121

Jesus would they lay off the feckin camera cuts!

Yeah, Sasha winning it at Summerslam makes more sense..

Itssoeasy

Surreal to see Finn make his entrance and Michael Cole put him over strong listing all his titles.

Agent Coulson

Balor Club Worldwide.


Finn is going heel here tonight with Machine Gun and Gallows doing a run in during the main event against Roman.

Lithium93_

Corey Graves > JBL..

Mr.Nice Guy

Crowd seems quite sh*t to me. I was hoping for a better reaction for him.

It feels a bit underwhelming to me so far. Maybe I'm overthinking it, I dunno. Just want this to go well.

Agent Coulson

**** crowd in general I think they didn't give Foley a good reaction to his cheap pop.

Agent Coulson

KO's sh1t talking is so fcuking good.

Old school at it's best.

martyos121

Is it just me or is one of the cameras giving off a darker image? Seems to be coming from the one facing away from where the table used to be.

Faugheen

I love KO's running commentary during his own matches

Itssoeasy

I love Kevin Owens. Even the little things are done well.

Lithium93_

It's amazing how bearable the commentary is for me when JBL isn't there .

I broke my ****e laughing when he said 'Come on, I'm right here' to Rusev

Is it too soon to dream of rollins vs balor this early

Yes, im not even sure if theyll have him win this match. Owens probably id say,.

Lithium93_

Weird seeing a RAW thread at 5 pages already.

Lithium93_

Kevin Owens Frog Splash is a thing of beauty.

raven136

This has been a cracking good start to Raw

Its just great seeing Balor up there

I can see him and Owens being fantastic together on Raw

Agent Coulson

The new hipster director needs to be fired with his quick cuts and ****ty camera angles.

Bret Hart

YES !!!!

Itssoeasy

Caesars is a horse of a young fella.

Tinie

Maybe WWE for once will do something right for once.

Faugheen

That's how you debut.

Great match.

That's Kevin Dunn's tinkering for ya.

Mr.Nice Guy

Corey Graves calling it an upset. Way to put over a new talent there, genius.

Itssoeasy

Yes boy. First thing Wicklow have won in years.

Lithium93_

Hoping for a Finn/Sami main event.

Well there has to be a heel commentator and he did say he respected what Finn has done.

Mr.Nice Guy

I didn't realise it was Finn's birthday today. Great day for him.

J. Marston

Great match.

Off-topic, American food ads are crazy. 2 foot of pizza for 12 dollars.

I'd be dead in a week if I lived over there.

harney

So Finn / Jericho it is then.

Lithium93_

So who's Nia Jax gonna squash in her debut?

Different culture. Take out is a big deal over there., while we are more into the home cooking side of things. But a big bag of chips for €1.50 or whatever is alien to them.

connemara man

Delighted to see Finn up there doesn't look a bit out of place

Now do I stay awake to watch his next match?

Heel or not you don't call the number three draft pick winning an upset. You want the fans to believe he belongs in that company. It's not as if he was even in there with main eventers.

I know Graves is the new darling of commentary for many but that was a sh*tty call imo. And I hope Vince or Hunter chews him out for it.

Lithium93_

Also, weird seeing the commentary team standing up instead of being sat down.
