Official 30th Jan, 2012 RAW Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[JsnakeJ]

Agree sort of with Swinny and yea could use that Punk said it tonight so much. But still it's pretty random. It was ok HHH/Taker but thinking about it could be the end of there careers and Taker's last match he might change gimmick HHH wants to fight a 'real' man or maybe include HBK as ref or HBK vs HHH vs Taker and a way to end all there careers and history.

I thought about that earlier today and then was like na theres no way they would but that match would be amazing. Sad to see those 3 gone but having Taker vs HHH as a send off for them both would be fitting.

[LionDen]

He deserves a big send off like Flair's.

Oh, I agree 100% but the difference between Taker and Flair is that Taker has been loyal to WWE ever since he entered the company. All the kids he trained along the way, helping them become superstars. Taker was even the one who made Vince go apologize to Hart for the screw job but as we know that was not a good idea since he got knocked lol Taker the Legend.

Eh, I'm honestly not that big on the way things went. Pretty much the same exact thing that happened last year, except with 'Taker confronting Triple H instead of the other way around, which I guess was the point, but could have been something new. Punk and Jericho too seems to be quite lazy, Jericho just attacking him out of nowhere, assume that will have to do with Punk claiming to be the "best in the world", especially since he said it like a million times tonight, with Jericho taking offense to it.

Guess I'll just have to wait and see how things go, but a little anti-climactic overall.

The big difference with Taker and Trips is that Trips walked away but I think that is an awesome lead up to a storyline. Taker does not have to wrestle but do his horror gimmick to get Trips into the ring. If they go that way.

I agree about Jericho and attacking Punk for saying he was the best in the world, if I remember right, Jericho use to say he was the best in the world at one time and played that gimmick as well.

Trips may say he will retire, that's if he does say it but he will be like Vince IMO. He will continue to wrestle when a storyline calls for it I think as time goes on. Trips is going to be around for years and probably run the business one day with his wife, so the opportunity for him to get in the ring like Vince did and get those amazing ratings for the show like Vince did will be to much for him not to.

Oh and hi Jake

[Lord Tensai]

KHARMA vs Beth, MITB. Oh Shaq vs Show! DAMN.

KHARMA vs Beth, MITB. Oh Shaq vs Show! DAMN.

Shaq vs Show, what a waste of space. Space that could be filled with something better I am sure. I would rather see Shaq as an enforcer or guest referee or something.

[Brad]

If Big Show has a match with Shaq wouldn't that mean he would have to a heel? Smackdown can't afford to lose many more faces right now they only have Orton, Sheamus, Big Show to Wade, Christian, Bryan Danielsom, Mark Henry, and Cody Rhodes to extent an big name. Maybe Christian will come back as face to induct Edge into the HOF.

[konan]

im dissapoint for missing that raw. Damn sleep sucks,lol

[ToperDragon1981]

I know this sounds stupid, but Taker looks shorter than I remember. Maybe it was the camera angle or something, but I swore Taker looks shorter.

Watching HHH basically say without saying that our business is done, by walking out on Taker was a stroke of genius. Obviously Taker is going to haunt HHH, but it will be on HHH terms this time not the Takers.

[c-m-punk]

Agreed, he did seem shorter. Was he ill before as well cause he looked smaller than he used to and his hair looked like a wig. anyone know?

[Lord Tensai]

Yea his hair did look long but I don't know about Daniel Im really not sure he will win. Because just a guess but Orton vs Christian vs Sheamus vs Daniel could happen at Mania because Orton surely would need to be at Mania and in a match and it won't be MITB. Let's say Cody/Goldust as well at Mania but Sheamus vs Orton, Daniel or Christian or a 3 or 4 way between them cause alot of 1 on 1's lol. Or I bet they'll turn Orton vs Barrett into a Chamber match to get in or something to end the feud. But yea either way it would be good but I could see Daniel being in MITB and there's reasons for all the matches. Guess a 1 on 1 could be better but 4 way has more talent involved.

[JsnakeJ]

no I see Orton vs Barrett at WM after barrett gets hurt friday and returns in a month.

And there is not going to be a MITB at WM, look at the PPV schedule, they did not remove MITB ppv this year.

I'll be happy with the 4 matches that seem certain right now. Can't wait

[Lord Tensai]

There was talk of it and another Barrett vs Orton at Mania really lol? How pointless three more months of nothing.

[jbragg]

awesome show last night

[The Mac]

[dope2]

i sent jericho a tweet few months back asking him what he thought of punk using the Best in the world on his new shirt
