Hah! A small part of me still thinks his exit might be a work like his walkout as WWE Champion was a few years ago, but if he did really walk out in the huff because he wasn't getting everything he wanted then it serves him right. In a strange way, his decision to leave likely opened a few doors and played a role in us getting all the cool stuff we are getting right now.

Punk walking out was probably the best thing to happen to everyone, himself included. Bryan is pushed to the main event, we avoid whatever was planned between him and HHH, and in two years he can come back as a part timer and main event Wrestlemania ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Zeb's Deportation List:
Heyman Cesaro Sheamus Santino Paige Emma
Looks like a pretty good Heel stable to me. I wonder if they are going anywhere with that or if it was just a throwaway thing.

Nah, I think that particular sign was just a set up for Party Boy coming out. It's probably months away yet, but I can't wait for the Bunny to turn heel on Adam Rose and destroy him.

If this was TNA that would be happening next week. It would be funny if the entire party did a heel turn by not catching Adam when he went for crowd surfing.

Lmao I need for this to happen now. They all just step aside and he falls flat on his back to a huge thump.
Also if this was tna, Bryan would've already dropped the title to Batista, Batista would've turn face and already dropped the title to the newest corporate member Alberto del rio. Then Bryan and Batista would be tag champs and next week they'd drop the belts to rybaxel

LOL. Adam Rose has been around for a week and we are already thinking up ways for him to look like an idiot.
And if this was TNA Bryan would be defending his title against Bushwhacker Luke at the PPV because everyone else has been released.

I just got done watching RAW from Monday and it has got to be a running joke at this point that any time Ryback is within striking distance of The Shield, he ends up getting triple powerbombed. It has happened so many times and I love it.
Not sure what to make of the Daniel Bryan surgery angle. Is it an angle? The sooner the Kane feud is over the better.
I did like Alicia Fox losing it after her match. Such a change from the usual Divas crap.

Not sure what to make of the Daniel Bryan surgery angle. Is it an angle? The sooner the Kane feud is over the better. Unfortunately it's not an angle. He actually has to get that similar surgery cena got that time that kept him out for about 8-10 weeks. Apparently wwe is really nervous about it. But they're anticipating a summerslam return at the very latest. It's a hairline fracture and the storyline obviously is Kane caused it but the reality is no one knows exactly how it happened or they're just not saying. I think wwe needs to have the shield come up short a little more. We all know you can't hold them down, they're all great, and they have no fear. But if you continuously have them make asses out of the biggest heels in the company with almost no humility in return, it kind of takes the heart out of the angle. It's like for every beating the shield takes, they hand out 5 more. That's cool and all but, if they win 5 "battles" at least have them lose 3 or 4 battles in return. Then have them win the war later. When evolution hit the triple powerbomb on roman, I thought, it's about fucking time. Now I can't wait to see what the shield is going to do next. Then they jumped evolution in the back and it was cool. Then they jumped evolution in the ring, ok there's your receipt. Then at the end of the show they were getting destroyed again and it would've been perfect if they had evolution standing tall again. But then the shield bounces back and for the third time that night, they Clowned evolution again. I felt like they ruined it that way. It's not even so much about the beating, but more the humiliation. Evolution is getting humbled way too many more times than the shield is. Adam rose has great chemistry with zeb and swagger. I have to admit l literally L'dOL when swagger went to throw a haymaker at Adam and completely whiffed because Adam just gracefully dropped back into the crowd surf. That was such a great little spot right there. Little things like that make a huge difference in the quality of that type of segment. The thing I'm worried about is when they actually have a match. As I've mentioned, I'm a little nervous about Adam rose going past 3-5 min in the ring. Aside from a couple little signature spots, he kind of stinks the place up. He did finally adopt a new decent finisher in NXT which was desperately needed. Paige vs Alicia was a pretty good little match. The finish of the match was a little weak. Paige gets destroyed and the only move she hits is her finisher. Some people might appreciate it but I would've liked SOME offense from Paige, even just one more move than her finisher. Alicia looked great during the match. But her little flip out after the match was kind of awkward. It was a good idea. I just felt like she executed it poorly, kind of like she forgot what she was supposed to do or something and had a hard time acting. It was just weird. Something didn't seem right. Speaking of divas, natty vs Nikki wasn't the worst divas match I've recently seen either. The booking was just really fucking lame. They make the divas just embarrass themselves. They booked Alicia and Paige like serious women competitors but they book the others like 13 yr old girls with the embarrassing ugly painting and judging the match like it's a swim meet, that kind of lame shit. I'm going to start referring to these childish bookings as "santino segments" just to simplify it. I'm so sick of these santino type of goofball bookings..... But, Nikki's body is looking great lately! I have to admit, I marked out for Kane dragging Bryan out on the stage and just leaving him there. It was classic Kane and it was actually pretty funny. Aside from my morbid humor, that's a perfect example of sometimes less is more. We didn't have to deal with 5-10 more unnecessary minutes of Stephanie's disingenuous sincerity, Bryan telling her she's full of crap, then she tells him he's not champ anymore because of his neck, then officials come out to take the belt, but he won't hand it over, yada yada. That was a much better way of writing Bryan off and it already sets up his return. Cena is in a bad spot right now, meaning he's clearly past his prime but he's still not quite in that putting over fossil stage yet. He's just kind of the same fucking guy just in a boring transitioning stage in the company. I think after payback it's time to put the Wyatt/cena feud to bed too. The sheamus/rybaxel segment was good and bad at the same time. Let me explain. When axel and ryback came out in those stupid hats, I thought it was a good touch. I like that they seem to be trying to make this tag team work by doing little things like that. Then it got a little stupid when they're wasting their time figuring out who's going to wrestle the match with rock/paper/scissor THEN a coin toss. But when ryback lost and went "haha big guy out!" I just burst out laughing. Then the match with axel sucked. But then the match with ryback was actually pretty good! Lol just a weird overall ride that segment was. I wonder where they are going with Layla and fandango. All I can say is THANK GOD they didn't do a segment with them and santino and Emma for the 13th show straight. Jesus Christ. What's sad is I'm not even really exaggerating by saying 13! One guy pointed out something funny about Rhodes and sandow. He said, Cody put an end to his losing streak by beating a guy on an even bigger losing streak. Does that even count? Lol Incredible how hacksaw Duggan is still totally over. The guy is a fucking old hick mess but, hell, he's our old hick mess. Lana is so god damn sexy I can't stand it. She's not the most gorgeous women in the world but her body is damn near perfect and she just carries herself very hot. Rusev is boring but I did appreciate big E getting kicked in the face. Lastly I'll say about shield and evolution, I feel like they could've done a really big match with Batista and roman reigns down the line with the right build. They seem to have that same type of role but from different eras and it could've been a money match someday. The only way they can do that now is under completely different circumstances Overall, raw was OKAY. I feel like they've slipped off a little from wrestlemania season. They picked a great time to do nothing with Barrett, you know, while he's red hot. SMFH. But they've still been a lot worse at one point. I remember times where I was flat out disgusted with raw. Last night and last week they just were okay, but not bad shows. I just hope they don't get lazy

They're in a tough spot because in the storyline Triple H should have come out 2 seconds after Dan announced the surgery and stripped him of the title. Because they've already done that a bunch of times and he just won at Wrestlemania, they can't really go to that well again without deflating the fans. I think they can get around it by having Dan voluntarily giving up the belt, saying he was going to be a fighting champion, yaddayaddayadda he'll be back etc.
I saw a clip on wwe.com where Layla and Fandango were making out. It was a pretty hot kiss, actually. It just made me remember what a ridiculuous waste of talent Layla is. They've done nothing with her since she beat McCool. Not even Santino Segments. Really bizarre.
Not sure I agree that he's past his prime, but I do think they're at the stage where they're content to give him "featured feuds" while trying out other acts in the "main event spotlight". It's like they're saying "don't worry kids, Cena is here! But maybe you'd like to see the Shield or Dan Bryan in the main event! Or check out these other cool things we're doing, like Lana's ass. But like we said, we haven't forgotten about Cena, you'll see him as well!"

RAW has really slipped since WrestleMania. I suppose it was inevitable considering Bryan's title win was the crescendo the fans had been craving for so long, but the recent shows compared to the shows before WrestleMania just don't have the energy and excitement.
There is still some good stuff happening, like BNB and Alicia Fox, but they need to spark up some new feuds or something.

Yeah man, it's sort of reverted back a little. It's not god awful but they are going back to a lot of their own ways. For starters...
this shit like sheamus vs del rio has seriously got to stop. You know, that mid card mix up between 5-6 different guys that seem to wrestle each other all the fucking time and the matches are subpar at best. I can't deal with it. I love that we got shield vs Wyatts 3 or so times because they always take it to that next level and it's a lot of fun. But if the shield wrestled the Wyatts 25 times, it would start to really suck! So even the best match ups suck after a hundred thousand million fucking times, and they're doing it with motherfuckers who are stale! Stop it!
I have to admit, I am a BOLIEVER! Bo Dallas has been the best part of the show since he debuted, in my eyes. The thing I love about Bo Dallas is, no matter how over the top and ridiculous he is, so many people wish they had that kind of outlook in life. I like when there's a lot of good human qualities in a guy but he's just enough of a jerk to be heel.
My second favorite part of the show is anything involving BNB. I fucking love Barrett with this gimmick. He finally really found his niche. You can tell Barrett had a hard time figuring himself out after the nexus angle. But he's definitely on the right track now. He's like the polar opposite heel of Bo. Barrett is a total jerk with no positive inspirational qualities, but he's somehow cool.
Adam Rose is getting old fast. I don't like how everything with him is a "segment". I kind of want to see what he can really do in the ring. If not, I'm just going to assume he's a shitty wrestler because that's what I've gathered from him so far. I really do like the character and he makes me laugh and brings a good vibe to the show, but if this is it with him, I'm going to lose full interest sooner than later.
I'm already kind of bored with Paige. Fucking wwe man. She doesn't suck but they don't let their divas shine for shit. I know from NXT that she's better than this. I like what they're doing with Alicia. I feel like she kind of sucks at executing this angle, like it comes off awkward. But they'll drop it in a couple weeks anyway so I'm not even investing emotion in it.
I am SO sick of cena and Wyatts. Adding the Usos to the mix made it worse. I don't hate the Usos. They're kind of just there for me. Their matches are ok sometimes but their characters are a bit annoying. But, as much as I like brays promo skills, if I have to turn on raw or smackdown one more time and see "bray Wyatt addresses john cena tonight" I'm going to break my remote. Again, like the mid card matches, it's THE SAME FUCKING SHIT over and over and OVER. "Jawn cena yaw livin a lie! He's got the wholllle world in his hands"...oh Jesus Christ shut the fuck up already! Nothing in this feud will top when he brought out all those kids to the ring. That segment alone outshined everything else about this feud by miles. I liked seeing JBL getting out of his chair to defend lawler. It was a nice little heroic moment for JBL. But everything else, I'm bored!
I've been quite disappointed in the evolution/shield feud too. I just think the whole thing could've been done better. I have high expectations of this match Sunday so I hope they won't let us down. I think it can easily steal the show. But let's hope this feud is over after this "special event" on Sunday too.
I actually have enjoyed the Hornswoggle/Torito feud but for god fucking sake, did Torito really have to knock off every single member of 3mb?(Jinder last night on smackdown). That kind of shit is just beyond retarded. The stuff with the tail getting cut off and Torito running around and getting it taped up for Friday was pretty fucking funny though. The actual stuff between those two has been some of the best midget feuding I've ever seen. Even their WeeLC match turned out to be pretty awesome. It's ok when the matadors and 3mb get involved. But all 3 guys jobbing to an 80lbs guy in minutes is just too stupid for reasons I don't even need to get into.
Anybody bored with cesaro since he joined heyman? This is a classic case of a failed chemistry experiment to me. Neither guy is doing a bad job or anything. They just don't mesh like punk and heyman or lesnar and heyman do.
Rvd is fucking boring! People talk about cena doing the same shit for years. Has rvd changed up ANYTHING in 15 years? He's the same exact guy just 43 yrs old now and not as good as he once was. That's all. If rvd turned heel And repackaged I would be like, wait, what, he can do that?
Kane will be Kane. That's all I got for him. You guys all know what I mean when I say that. He's just Kane.
I THINK I like what they are doing with sandow.?.? Davy Crockett was so stupid but I admit I laughed the whole time. Truth be told, I don't understand what happened with sandow in the first place. How did he get to this point? He had a better gimmick than most guys and didn't suck in the ring. Did he piss someone off? Did he let someone down? I'm not necessarily against him jobbing the mitb briefcase seeing where they took their world title plans. He definitely wasn't ready for that particular spot. But why the complete downhill spiral?
I know Bryan is injured but I'm bored with him too. If I had to read between all the shit that's gone on with him and his mega push into becoming a superstar, I'd have to say this, his face character sucks! I have to be honest. I think he's boring as shit. He says the same shit, "if it wasn't for you people I wouldn't be here, steph you're full of crap, etc...yes yes yes". At least the guy breaks his ass in the ring. I think he's a bit overrated in the ring. I might get shanked for saying that. Lol he's definitely one of the most consistent hands they have in the ring. I'll give him that. I honestly never understood why he's "the best wrestler in the world". I would say he's one of the hardest in ring workers for sure though. But I feel like the "yes" is more over than he is at the end of the day.
If rusev turns out to be a good wrestler, I might say this character build with the squashes is worth it. But again, I'M FACKING BORED! Then you got big E who is, surprise, BORING! Jesus Christ. Why does "boredom" have to be the key word of a raw review? They were just getting so good again.
Can't really think of anything else. Oh, fuck the total divas nonsense. There, now I'm done. Come on wwe you were almost there!

If this was tna Seth and dean would've turned a long time ago, roman would be a former world champ already and roman would be with triple h now and somehow dean and Seth would be faces again and Seth would be visiting Batista in jail trying to turn his life around or some shit
