[Ché Guerrero]

why put her in a suit!?!? WHY!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Ok how hot does AJ look

[Dr Gregory House MD]

Who thought it would be a good idea to put AJ in a suit

[harryspiv]

I wonder if creative are going to use the information from these touts to decide on Punks possible heel turn.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Good match between Bryan and Sheamoose here

[Dr Gregory House MD]

Great match

Hahaha apologies forced. Anyone get down exactly what he said? I heard a little and thought it may have been a bit edgy

[harryspiv]

I'm getting rather annoyed. I'm enjoying the adverts but occasionally they are interrupted by brief instances of wrestling.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Gotta love AW

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Yes Punk on commentary

[Zoot - Trevor Swann 6WF]

Wow that was not bad. Over did AJ on our screens as people expected but she was quite good. Although the Bryan psychiatiric test was quite a cheap laugh I liked it.

Punks promo was fantastic loved the way he just went and addresed King. Far too many recaps though which made it a two hour RAW with added filler. How many times did they say the set had been on fire?!?!

Be interested to see if Kane appearing as Bryans Anger Management guy goes anywhere or it was a cheap laugh.

Orton looked so happy to be back. Never seen him that pumped up recently (I don't mean on drugs for a change).

[Liam]

Great when Punk adressed King, basically called him up on his awful commentary and throughout the night on commentary, I loved it. Especially the bit where King said when Cena came out: 'Have you heard a reaction like that tonight' Punk: 'As a matter of fact I did, when I came out'

Have to say I really enjoyed Raw, good matches in particular the tag match between Miz/Christian/Jericho and Ziggler. Every man got some good offence in and overall the match was excellent.

Nice return for Orton, looks like he's going for the Taker mohawk haha, looked all right tbf.

[theundisputedY2D2]

Didn't get a chance to watch last night so I'm wondering what kind of reaction Punk got before, during and after his promo?

[Statto00]

Punk: 'As a matter of fact I did, when I came out'

Punk is gay?

[Dr Gregory House MD]

Didn't get a chance to watch last night so I'm wondering what kind of reaction Punk got before, during and after his promo?

Not sure if people will agree with me but this is what I heard on one viewing last night.

Sparse boos and cheers throughout, the boos I thought lessend during Punks promo if anything, which either means WWE is setting him up as a very complex character or they have learned nothing from last years promo, and obviously beating down Cena and The Big Show at the end of the show isn't something that is going to ellicet massive heat among the smarks.

[theundisputedY2D2]

Cheers Doc

[Dr Gregory House MD]

Cheers Doc

No bother, I want a mention in random thoughts as payment though

Done and done!

[NickisBHAFC]

So has CM Punk turned heel?

Impressed with the wrestling last night. Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus was a class match. The tag team match was good. I guess its looking like Jericho vs Ziggler at summer slam. Maybe with the breifcase on the line. Also the Cena Big show match was acctually quite good. Shame though that big olf will be in the main event at summer slam.

AJ acctually did well i thought.

Big News this week. Mr Mcmahon will be on Smackdown this week to name the new gm. Thoughts?? I acctually think it will be AJ or Eve. Or Teddy sadly.

[Liam]

I think judging by the state on the divas division wrestling wise, I wouldn't be surprised to see Eve given the job. She did a decent job in a similar role when with Big Johnny on Raw. I swear to God though if Teddy Long walks out again then I'll refuse to watch Smackdown. Wouldn't mind Regal being given the job either.

[Hero]

Regal would be a great shout especially if they then use it to debut Ambrose

(seriously fed up of the wait for this now!!!)

[Guest]

Just finished watching raw, actually enjoyed it punk was brilliant in the opening and loved the stuff with Bryan. Tag match was good and this feud with Jericho could do wonders for Ziggler

My only criticism was the ending, bit of a cop out making it a triple threat match, big show is obviously only there so wwe can protect Cena by having punk retain by pinning show. I'd imagine Cena will hit the AA then punk will push Cena out of the ring and pin Show

[NickisBHAFC]

I swear the name ambrose is mentioned on every single topic on 606. I swear to god this guy better be what everyone makes him out to be.

[Kay Fabe]

Think Del Rio got a Miz shade of Orange for last night while Miz was looking a bit Sheamoooosy

Heath Slater's selling of the RKO was brilliant, best I've saw take it since Michaels at the 07 Survivor Series

Punks promo was great, went the way I expected, very sensible and logical promo

Thought the Wrestling was long, not gonna say good, I don't like the WWE non PPV Style but they gave everyone plenty of time

Daniel Bryan was a bit of a star of the show last night, got plenty of air time, don't know why dressing rooms always turn into Amsterdam anytime Kane walks in though, when Bryan was given a clean bill of health and the red appeared I thought the Godfather was back...it was just the big red masked hairy moobs covered monster of destruction from another mother KANE

Take it LeBron James (yeah, I really give a monkey's who this guy is) partook in a bit of enforcer style pumpfesting to some unsuspecting young bit of poonani? AW forgot he was in PG Haven and thought he was auditioning for Saturday Night Live

Cena was surprisingly nominated to participate in his 836,357th #1 contenders match, I hate these thrown together matches, we're lead to believe that the MitB is special because it gives people opportunity that ortherwise isn't easy to come to, so after buying a PPV to see Cena win then fail a week later, for nothing what so ever we got to see Cena get another chance to be #1 contender, when he failed again the WWE thought it made perfect sense to then put him into the Title match, nothing gets a WWE character a push and a World Title match more than failing, its the most important attribute you can bring to the table, if you lose ypou're in

[bretmeharty]

I couldn't deal with recap after recap, in the end I just skipped most of it because I couldn't work out if it was live or a recap.

They had a recap of Punk talking to Cena, It only just happened.

Boy did they drag every little segment out, it was very noticeable too. Del Rio's match with Santino was you're typical squash match but it just went longer.

What was that thing with Vickie all about? Is this the only way they can think off to fill up 3 hours?

I feel like we are going around in circles with Del Rio, he becomes no.1 contender, then has a squash match to make him look the real deal and unbeatable for the title match then he loses, and repeat. Whats the deal.

[Crimey]

They had a recap of Punk talking to Cena, It only just happened.

This was only because of Abraham Washington's Kobe Bryant comment. They just cut away so they could establish how they'd tackle it.

[bretmeharty]

Are you sure?

I'm talking about when Punk was talking to Cena in the back

[MIG]

A lot of filler so I managed to watch it all pretty quick. But the good stuff was really good IMO. Punk was great especially against King and out back with Cena. Bryan was hilarious. Some good matches in there too. Most surprisingly I thought big show was good both on mic and in his match. Im actually happy with the triple threat at summerslam. And with Brock v HHH and potentially Jericho v Ziggler it's looking great. And fingers crossed for Bryan v Sheen. Winning!

[The Best in the World]

apparently they are leaning towards Kane vs Bryan at summerslam with Sheen in Kane's corner

[Zoot - Trevor Swann 6WF]

Will Sheen get choked?


sorry coked...

[Crimey]

Are you sure?

I'm talking about when Punk was talking to Cena in the back

Pretty sure.

[MIG]

Oh god, way to ruin that one, why get Kane involved in something that potentially could be hilarious? Doesn't really make sense.

[theundisputedY2D2]

Surely Charlie Sheen should lead a faction of himself, Jake 'The Snake' Roberts, Marty Jannetty, Scott Hall and Jeff Hardy into battle against Daniel Bryan Danielson?

[Kay Fabe]

Bet Sheen won't get Wellnessed

[theundisputedY2D2]

If they tested Charlie Sheen the Wellness test machine would go into meltdown!


"Too.....many.......substances.........OVERLOAD........OVERLOAD.......OVERLOAD!"

[Kay Fabe]

I'd love to see ol' Chuck just swagger up and start screaming "Test Me!!!!"

[theundisputedY2D2]

Imagine if they gave him Test's old entrance theme. He'd brick himself!


"Test. Test. This is a test"


"It's a WHAT?!"
