Melina looking well

PTH2009

Already teasing cedric leaving the hurt business

Torrie Wilson still looks amazing, bogeyman with his usual appearance

Agent Coulson

That Spanish Fly was seriously impressive from Lee and Drew.

Yep this is embarrassingly bad. Everyone last week expecting WWE to pull the triger on Lee, nah they're giving they up and comer Goldberg a well deserved push.

Officer999

Alicia Fox as a legend?? Did she ever win the women’s title out of interest?

Terrible Raw again.

The White Wolf

I did like Drew brusque dismissal of Oldberg but the problem is that I trust them in no way to follow through accordingly.

Now i dont watch anymore but when i seen his name and vince trending on twitter, i knew things are bad , so if i read that Goldberg is in a title match anywhere except wrestlemania, i dont expect him to lose.

Lord TSC

Goldberg’s promo felt like it was written for Roman or Randy instead of Drew, talking bout respect and family. It seemed to make no sense against the respectful babyface...

Goldberg is going to win the title at the Rumble and defend it against another part-timer/pensioner at Mania.


The total combined runtime of both matches will be around 4 minutes.

Well that was a serious let down - after expecting Lee to win and/or a Miz cash-in, instead we’re getting another Goldberg 2 month reign at the Rumble! And would it not make more sense to have Goldberg chase Reigns, considering he claimed Reigns side stepped him at last years Mania!

Also.. Why was there so much controversy over Riddle tapping - he used the ropes to jump the ref, so (unless I missed something?) surely that should have been Rope Break? Or is this another time we’re meant to forget the rules?

Get out of here with your logical booking.... logical booking and crazy Vince McMahon do not mix.

TimesArrow

Well that was dreadful. Every one of the legends segments was so cringeworthy and awkward.. any idea what happened Henry’s leg?

CastorTroy

Rope break seems to do with being at the ropes for a period of time as have seen loads of times where someone can have and ankle lock or something and pull the opponent away from the rope while keeping it on.
But who knows.

Was Flair's tripping of Charlotte meant to be seen as accidental?

Alicia Fox needs Noam Dar to always be with her for any appearances just to say her name .

He had the hots for Lacey, understandably, so did it for her.

I feel the segment would have been more effective simply as:

You got size, you got speed, you got athleticism... I GOT NEXT

followed by a spear.

But y'know, Goldberg doing the interrupting and Orton has spent the night bad mouthing teh leg-ends so

Was just going to say that, jesus its a big possibility too

Big pissed off Braun Strowman could also have a say in this match or even win the rumble

Agent Coulson

Sheamus needs to be the one to take the belt off Drew.

Sheamus has been a real stand out since he went with the Snatch gimmick.

PTH2009

Goldberg should of copied his wwe debut and simply say 'hey drew you know who's next?, YOU'RE NEXT' and spear him . But that would work if the champ was heel seriously wwe what ye at

Cotts72

Goldberg lost any credibility when strauman squashed him

Ridley

[Seinfeld voice]I don't wanna five minute Mania main event![/Seinfeld voice]

bmorrissey

Haven't watched properly since MITB last year, tuned in today to be greeted by Goldberg getting another shot right before mania....class. Havent seen much of any other wrestlers build up but is it likely it'll be goldberg as champ going into mania?...is there a hot favorite for rumble so far?

TimesArrow

What’s likely to happen with Goldberg? Are they really going to have him get destroyed by Drew and that’ll be it? Somehow I doubt it and he’ll feature prominently in the mania shake up..

They’ve turned McIntyre into such a knob.. him fawning over Hogan was almost unwatchable.. the fawning over the legends in general was just awful.. wtf was that let at the start with Hogan and the phone?

ThePott

I can't believe they seriously wheeled out Goldberg again, if he beats Drew I think I'm done with Raw.
That would be abysmal.

Drew needs to squash him and no sell any offence.

Alicia didn’t have those Tatts on her arms last time she was on WWE TV did she?

I thought he was going for Roman next not Drew
