AJ did not just drop Ricochet in the top rope and bounce him into a clash. I refuse to believe that happened. No.

I thought that. I just needed to mention the Tokyo Dome, and then the irony of Workrate being mentioned during the Workrate portion of the show.Quote:

I really hope this dissention in the Hurt Business is just to teach Cedric Alexander a lesson and he falls back in line. The group is so good and they should stick together for a while.
So Drew is gonna be live (via satellite) again.
Honestly I almost think they'd be better off giving him the 2 weeks off TV.
^ No arguments there.
I like Alexa's character, but that was a stretch
So I saw Gillberg returned to Raw tonight. That’s quite awesome seeing as how his health was in serious question late last year. And I’m going to check out Raw later tonight.
Check out everything with Orton and Alexa and Styles vs Ricochet and maybe Miz and Morrison. The rest is very skippable.

We’re less than two weeks away from the Royal Rumble and that means it is time to start adding in some new names to the lineups. There are several spots still available and that means we can fill in a few more of them over the next two weeks. And there’s the whole Randy Orton getting hit with a fireball deal. Let’s get to it.

I Need A Double Yoo-Hoo After This Show
January 25
Let's get to it!
Let's get to it.
Let's get to it!
Drew's back, Miz is gonna cash in at the Rumble.
I wish Drew mentioned something about last weeks hilarity.
Goldberg was like "get my segment done so I can get out of here" lol
In all honesty it was a good segment for him. They used him good. Say his catchphrase, beat up someone, leave.Quote:

True
OK well that was Charlottes best match since her return lol...
We're getting a 6 woman tag after the break.
Holla holla
If only the winner would get to go one on one with... DA UNDERTAKAHHHH!Quote:

lol
I'd lol if they restart the match with no countouts
And they botched the finish.
Charlotte is having terrible luck since she came back. She needs consistent ring time to get back into the swing of things. If only she had free reign to wrestle on 3 different brands, thus making her able to wrestle 3 times in a week leading up to a PPV where she's pulling double duty.... Oh wait, she literally has that.
They should have her defend the titles on Wednesday and then Friday again, before defending the Tag titles and entering the rumble.
lol, Joe saying "that's not the ending any of these ladies wanted" that's true. It also wasn't the ending the writing team wanted.
they just restarted the match because the faces are stupid and won't accept a legit countout victory.
how about if they just restart it?Quote:

So a powerbomb into a chokeslam. That looked rather devastating.
Sasha vs Reginald was better than all 3 of those matches
my dude
Just when you thought RAW couldn't get any better, HERE COMES SLAPJACK!!!
If we're lucky, we'll see Elias vs Jeff Hardy again
To be fair. I like the idea of Retribution going after New Day.
I think it's past time they allowed Mia/Dijakovik/Thorn/Maddin to unmask and use their names. I get why they did it but it lasted long enough.
Sadly, Xavier Woods has become the Will Smith meme
FUTURE KING OF THE RING XAVIER WOODS WINS!
Can someone explain to me why Ricochet hasn't helped yet? He's been feuding with Retribution for months.
Singles match DQ that results in a tag team match.
Heel faction attacks a babyface immediately after a match to get their heat back.
They're pulling out all the predictable booking tonight.
And whether you like Retribution or not, I think it's undeniable that Mustafa Ali is fucking awesome as a heel.
And R-Truth is just too much.
Every WWE wrestler has short-term memory loss.Quote:

I don't know anything about this Bad Bunny guys music. But I'm glad they're getting a musical performance by a guy doing a song about a wrestler.
HURT BUSINESS TIME, BUSINESS IS ABOUT TO PICK UP!
The Hurt Business always delivers
R Truth is so stupid that it is beyond funny.
He can keep doing this for another 20 years and it'll still work.
Someone mentioned this and I can't unsee it

Why is a 46-time champion having to qualify for the Rumble?
I’m currently catching up on Raw and I just noticed Truth’s shirt is in dedication of his childhood hero:lol::lol:
After he did this last year he needs to qualify for it.Quote:

If they're going restart matches multiple times throughout the show, can we at least get matchups we wanted to see?
Who cares about the rest of RAW.
THE BEST INTERNET WRESTLING SHOW IS BACK!
Matt Cardona on Twitter: "BREAKING! As first reported by @MajorWFPod at #MajorFest, #MCTrueLongIslandStory is coming to the brand new @MajorPodNetwork! https://t.co/OZksfN5rXK" / Twitter
Nah it’s cool. It took a minute until I realized he had wristbands ala Cena.Quote:

Could we have given AJ the 24/7 title cause no disrespect to Truth but he hasn’t done anything funny with the title in all of 2020. That maybe due to WWE creative not caring too much about the title.
And just like that I talked myself out of AJ getting the title.
I still love Alexa's character
WWE's covid problem is worse than they're admitting
Edge is underrated on the mic
The internet if Alexa wins
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KquFZYi6L0
Even as a huge fan of Alexa Bliss and this overall storyline, this is really hard to take seriously
The rocking horse was dumb, but I liked the rest of the match. Easily the best part of the show.

It’s the go home show for the Royal Rumble and the big draw this week is the double return of Drew McIntyre and Goldberg. I’m not sure how much of an appeal that is supposed to have but WWE certainly sees something in it. Also we get a rematch from last week with Asuka defending the Women’s Title against Alexa Bliss, because WWE doesn’t like waiting on much. Let’s get to it.

A Horse, A Haircut And Red Makeup
February 1, 2021
We're officially on the Road to WrestleMania! Edge outlasted 29 other men to earn a championship match at WrestleMania. But against who? Drew McIntyre retained his championship against Goldberg in quick fashion. His challenger will likely be decided in the Elimination Chamber. Could we see legends such as John Cena and The Rock return? Could new stars like Keith Lee and Matt Riddle finally get the push they deserve? Will Ric Flair and Lacey Evans have a live sex celebration? Will Lana go through another table?
Let's get to it!
Let's get to it!
Drew leading us off. He's talking at 8:02 so that's good. I guess no recap.
SIGN POINT COUNT: 1 (Drew just did it)
Time to start pointing!
Drew needs more of an edge (no pun intended) in these promos.
Sheamus looks so much more awesome in his promo attire.
I wish he'd wrestle in it.
One of the most obvious turns I can remember but a fine match for Elimination Chamber.
And now we have the guy Drew's gonna feud with for Fastlane and Chamber. About time, he's always a viable guy to wrestle for the title. Maybe not a viable guy to WIN the title but he's perfect for a contender around this time.
Chamber doesn't really do that much for me anymore.
Agreed but I'm not really sure why.Quote:

I wonder if they'll do the Chamber this year. They stopped doing it at one point because they couldn't use it in a lot of stadiums due to the weight and girth, combined with the scoreboards/screens.
I assume Tropicana Field can do it?
No idea
I mean Lashley had the Hurt Lock on in the roped about 30 seconds before they called for the bell. How did they not announce that as a Riddle win by DQ?
Bad Bunny is hanging around I guess? And he'll be on Miz TV.... I mean I thought he was good enough for a 1-night cameo but why stretch it out?
I really don't care for him.
Riddle doesn't even know why he wrestled. Is that because of the ass kicking he got, or was it because of the drugs he did pre-match?
Neither do I (I thought the music was the shits), but he did was used really good and was pretty good at what he did. I just didn't expect it to continue. I'm guessing this is it as they'll use him again since he's in the area still.Quote:

right.
Damian Priest! About time he's on RAW. I'll take him talking to Bad Bunny (and assuming getting involved with Miz/Morrison).
WRESTLEMANIA SIGN POINT COUNT: 2*
*Me, when they showed the sign on the TV. The actual count is still one. Slightly disappointed but there's still way too long before Mania probably.
This is what we get for saying Vince is out of touch.
Him proving to be NOT out of touch by getting one of the hottest names in pop culture involved.Quote:

Agreed.
Bad Bunny had 2 good nights with WWE.
I'd gladly welcome more. Put these 4 in a tag match at Mania.
Meh, it's not for me at all
No, it is for the millions of people that are Bad Bunny fans. The hope is that his fans will watch and then some of them will stay. Celebrity involvement is NOT for any of the hardcore fans. They're for the non-fans and casual fans.Quote:

^With you on that
...Bad Bunny doesn't appeal to the IWC and 50+ demo?Quote:

Some wrestlers on the main roster are too good to be doing nothing.
