Do Not Sell My Personal Information
What a shitty RAW this week. I feel like nothing happened. No storyline was moved forward.

Update? I watched the Raw after 'mania but haven't dropped in since. And that was a great bit of television. I haven't missed much, I'd imagine then?
 
WWE to ban seth rollins finisher "the curb stomp"



Color me. Devastated.
 
Now they just need to ban that stupid superman punch.


Unrelated note, I have to imagine Balor is going to be on the main roster after extreme rules. Sheamus us going on this little guy rant, and it seems like a great opportunity to jump in.

Should just ban Reigns all together not just his superman punch.
 
Kayfabe? If not why?

Concussions apparently. I just find it hard to believe that this is a concussion issue when brock lesnar is walking around the ring german suplexing people onto their skulls
 
Idk what it is but Byron Saxton looks like a black Gumby.
 
Are they ever going to end this damn Cena/Rusev feud? Jesus. I'm just sick of seeing these two fight at this point. Rusev can be a great villain, but not if they keep matching him up against the most insufferable "face" on the roster. Let him be the heel for someone else, please.
 
Goddamn wrestling is pathetically predictable. I'm done watching Raw tho, I'll just watch the PPVs and catch the promos that lead to whatever crap storyline it is. You already know Seth is winning until Summerslam or something, but it was an explosive crowd tonight and sometimes that can make a good show alone.

I'm about sick of this pussy sellout Kane too, something tells me he's going to break down and get the mask out soon tho.

I wouldn't mind Ambrose winning the MITB in Columbus.

I think last night had to be the end of Cena-Rusev. Their feud started the night of Royal Rumble (in January), and we're halfway thru May now. That's crazy. They've had 4 matches at the past 4 PPV's. Cena winning 3 of those 4, and the last 3 overall. Enough already, WWE.

I disagree. I don't think you end a major feud in such a noncommittal way. Although I'd much prefer that WWE just moved on and put Rusev up against someone else, I think they intend to keep this one going.

Personally, I think Rusev seems perfectly tailored to become one of those heels that younger guys need to beat to make a name for themselves and move up in the WWE. Give him feuds with the NXT guys as they move up and you'll get some great wrestling and storylines. Repeatedly working him against Cena doesn't really do either of them any favors at this point. We've basically seen all that these two can do together by now. It's tired.
 
You guys getting warmed up to a huge Lana face turn? Sexy blonde getting cheered but with a bad guy, and bad guy getting pissed off because she's stealing the light, sounds like Sable and Marc Mero to me...

Lana is so damn fine.

Exactly, which is why I'm ready to move on from it. They've had 4 PPV matches in which neither has had a clean, definitive win. It's obvious WWE does not want either guy taking a clean loss by pinfall or tap out. They booked themselves into a corner with strap matches and I Quit matches. Cena is never going to tap out or say I quit, and Rusev doesn't have a real finishing move to get a 3 count. Rusev isn't going to tap out or say I quit, so that leaves him taking a pin to put this feud to bed.

I don't know... before the match last night the commentators mentioned it was Rusev and Cena's "final chapter". Then they backtracked after the finish and said "we may not have seen the end of this". So, who knows. Guess we'll find out tonight.

Also, I agree with @Real Deal on the Rusev-Lana and Mero-Sable analogy. I've thought the same thing as this storyline has played out.
 
So, that's that... Rusev is competing in the IC Title Elimination Chamber match along with Ryback, Sheamus, Ziggler, Barrett, and (for some reason) R Truth.

And Cena is going up against current NXT Champion Kevin Owens. Wow. I'm all of a sudden very much looking forward to Elimination Chamber and Money in the Bank.
