Raw Thread (February 25, 2013)

WWE is focusing on the following points for tonight's show:

* Does Paul Heyman stand a chance against Vince McMahon?

* More fiery fallout for Kane and Daniel Bryan?

* What avenue will Ryback pursue against The Shield this week?

* What will Brad Maddox do as Assistant to the Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero?

* Cena vs. Punk: Once more, with feeling

What a chaotic way to start the show.

Heyman was beating down Vince in the fight, until he made a comeback, then Brock returns to put a beating on Vince, then Triple H returns to go after Brock. Lesnar ended up busted open, but it didn't bother him, Triple H eventually used a chair to chase Brock off.

Apparently Punk is now referring to himself as God

Not sure how to feel about Donald Trump going into the celebrity wing of the Hall of Fame (if they needed a celebrity they should have gone with one that's actually competed before like Mr. T)

Khali just got squashed by Mark Henry

Zeb Colter is the modern day hick Bobby Heenan and Ricardo Rodriquez is the Mexican Virgil. Both tremendous assets to Swagger and Alberto.

These guys have to be more careful controversy is good but some of the stuff said in the promo I thought was unwarranted.

Fandango debuts Friday on Smackdown (for Johnny Curtis sake they probably should have waited until after Wrestlemania)

Old School Raw next week, the last time they did this it was a pretty fun show

I think both Del Rio and Colter & Swagger bring up good points, but neither is completely right or wrong

Orton got the win over Claudio after countering the diving European uppercut into an RKO

Truth picks up a win in his return match against Cody

Kane & Bryan despite their handicap still defeated Prime Time Players

Miz put up a valiant effort, but Swagger continues the roll he's on since his return

[flame3169118]

Well Cena did it and will face The Rock at Wrestlemania, it took a hurricanranna (If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't believe it) to set up a final AA

[TheGame]

this year will be summed up in one picture

Spoiler for image:

also, Cena needs to stop doing the Cena-canrana, it looks sloppy as hell whenever he does it.

I missed TLC last year

[Mr. Tambourine Man]

What a main event!

That was the most fun I've had watching a TV match in a long time. Awesome awesome awesome. It's going to be very tough for Rock/Cena to top that.

Managed to watch the first half.... before YouTube removed all the videos again

Had to laugh at Del Rio playing a face role in his segment with Swagger & Zeb Colter.
Del Rio, a mexican singing the praises of America!

Great Khali seems to job to everyone in a minute!

[nbdynprtcular]

That was the most fun I have had watching a Cena/Punk match since their first feud began. Other than the failed hurracanrana (or however you spell it) they put on one whale of a match.


And for the record, I am glad Khali jobs to everyone in a minute, means I have to see him less.

[Mr. Tambourine Man]

I just read that Punk was actually battling a flu during RAW so major kudos to him for still putting on a stellar performance.

Kudos to both men really. It was an excellent match.
