RAW 1/7: Well the holidays are over and the Rumble is upon us

[BaconBits]

Letâ??s hope for a fun show. That opening was fun.

[BaconBits]

Dad Cena is best Cena.

[klunderbunker]

I want to grow up and be Cena's hair.

[klunderbunker]

Good looking Claymore.

[BaconBits]

Nobody wil ever sell the stomp as good as Brock does.

[BaconBits]

Hogan being on Raw will go over well on social media.

[BaconBits]

I like how a handful of neckbeards were trying unsuccessfully get boos going.

[klunderbunker]

That was awesome.

[BaconBits]

That package gets even more sad when you realize how many of the wrestlers in it are dead too.

[Skairipa]

There's nothing wrong with using Hogan for a memorial segment for Mean Gene. And Hogan going off on him one more time is funny.

[Skairipa]

I had faith the title change was happening here until I found out this was a lumberjack match, now I have very little faith that'll happen.

[Skairipa]

Called it.

[klunderbunker]

Can we please stop giving the heels legitimate complaints? That's not how this is supposed to work.

[BaconBits]

It appears a double turn is afoot. Should work out well for both parties.

[BaconBits]

Elias played a real nice little ditty there.

[klunderbunker]

The guy has chops.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

LOL Alabama is losing.

[klunderbunker]

I don't remember the last wrestler who could suck the life out of a show like Corbin.

[klunderbunker]

Heyman: "Lesnar is awesome."

Strowman: "I'M A MONSTER!"

They hit big moves on each other, Lesnar retains again and goes away until Wrestlemania time. Repeat again, because Lesnar only fights about three people.

[BaconBits]

Braun is in way over his head in this exchange.

[klunderbunker]

.....my goodness it's like they want us to go running away screaming.

[BaconBits]

I actually dig Foxy as Jinder’s running buddy.

[Skairipa]

Nothing about this is a fresh start, just more shit. Which ironically is also what Jinder Mahal being on TV every week is, shit.

[klunderbunker]

You have halftime from the football game, meaning an unopposed audience, and you put on a Jinder Mahal match. My goodness they deserve what they get.

[BaconBits]

This is crazy cringy.

[klunderbunker]

Nia comes out.

Me out loud: "DEAR GOD!"

[Skairipa]

Can we please move on from Nia-Ronda? There is no reason for Nia to fight Ronda anymore. And it seems she's back to being buddies with Bliss too, ugh.

I mean, they’re actually really good friends though, and they don’t really attempt to hide that on social media. Best to just ignore here whole feud at this point.

[klunderbunker]

Nia and Corbin are the kind of people who need to just go away for awhile. They just got done with some terrible stories and feud but they're still trotted out there every week with the fans getting more and more sick of them every time. Eventually they kill the show whenever they appear because the fans don't want to boo them but rather just not see them at all. WWE keeps at it anyway, because even though they have the huge roster, they don't want to start anything new but rather keep doing the same stuff over and over again, to worse and worse returns.

[Skairipa]

Well thank god Nia lost at least.

I never thought of it like that, but that's spot on. Just take the two of them off TV for awhile. And in Corbin's case, give him an entire new character.

It's how things worked in the old days. If you lost a big feud, you would go to another territory for a few months. THe fans forget about the loss, you come back fresh, there are new opponents to work with, and odds are you learned something new while you were gone. It worked very well but today there's no such option.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Sweet, I got points. Thanks Sasha.

[klunderbunker]

Can we please get Lashley out here to cost Rollins the title so we can have a light sherbert and forget about this show?

Monday Night Raw
Date: January 7, 2019
Location: Amway Center, Orlando, Florida
Commentators: Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Renee Young

It’s the first show of the year and WWE has stacked the card. In this case we have the return of John Cena, the return of Brock Lesnar, the return of Braun Strowman, the return of Hulk Hogan and the return of the Tag Team Title match from Christmas Eve with the Revival challenging Chad Gable and Bobby Roode, this time in a lumberjack match. Oh and getting ready for the Rumble in case you didn’t have enough to pick from. Let’s get to it.

It's Never Been This Hard To Watch (http://kbwrestlingreviews.com/2019/01/07/monday-night-raw-january-7-2019-its-never-been-this-hard-to-watch/)

[BestSportsEntertainer]

When your team loses so bad in the championship game that you wish you would've watched Raw

[Slyfox696]

Was Raw worth watching?

[klunderbunker]

Was Raw worth watching?

Only as a cure for narcolepsy.
