The OAO RAW Thread - 5/16/05

Recommended Posts

Wow... That ending was surreal. I knew the finish was coming, but after the match.... Damn, that was hot.

 

I love Matt Hardy, but I've been a fan of Edge for a longer time. I loathe Edge and Lita for their actions toward Matt, but Edge is still one of my favorite wrestlers, I'd still fuck the shit out of Lita, and I'd love to see Edge win the World Title.

 

In other news.... I attended WrestleMania 21 in L.A. just a month and a half ago. Now, this was announced tonight.

In Illinois, we were lucky to get 1 house show a year that came to Springfield. Out here, there are televised shows every few months! I love California!

 

Hopefully I'll get front row or close to it (facing the hard camera) so I can bring a forum-related sign .

Did you notice that the fans started getting bored with the Edge/Lita stuff as soon as the WWE acknowledged it? I think this is just going to blow up in their faces, or at least get chalked up as a massive waste of time.

Someone finally agrees with me.

I bet Adam Copeland's wife is loving Edge's new character direction.

They should run a story where Lita finds out Edge has a hidden cellphone lmao.

If WWE does this right, with Edge and Lita now being together on screen, Edges heat will be nothing short of nuclear. We all know HHH wont let that happen though, HHH will return week after next, challenge Edge to a match, win in less than a minute, Pedigree Lita, and kill everything theyve built up for Edge, the past 8 months.

At least the server survived the return of the OAO Raw Thread. That's the biggest news from the night.

...and it survived spam-viewing too.

Yeah. I used to hate it when every time I logged onto this forum after Raw, it would take too long to load up.

 

As for Edge and Lita, it almost seems like since Matt Hardy's not going to be back in WWE for a while that the pairing is going to seem pointless within the next few weeks, due to the fans wanting him to return to get revenge on Edge and Lita.

I'd buy a ppv to see that.

I loved how Lita and Edge just seemed to attack each other's mouth at the end. It's like they wanted to top the Christian/Trish kiss from WM XX.

 

Kane's face was priceless. It must be heartbreaking when the woman you raped and forced to marry betrays you...

For some reason I got an image of Brock Lesnar hunched over in front of his computer watching this board...

The Lita/Edge stuff is problematic because the natural thought is to do what they did tonight but the thing is no one wants to see Kane get the revenge, which is what basically has to happen storywise. Thing is, Matt is who was wronged in real life, so it sets up a "Kane getting revenge by proxy" storyline that won't jibe. Also I think them acknowledging Edge/Lita makes fans wonder if it was just an angle and that was half the fun of fucking with Edge and Lita if you're at the arena, the taboo nature of it being outside the storyline.

 

And hey, if HHH does come back and squashes Edge, I can't say I'd weep over it. Edge might be one guy who fully deserves the HHH treatment.

Why does Edge deserve the HHH Treatment. He is OVER, it would be stupid to do that.

 

 

O, you want it too happen because of his personal life? If so, shut up.

If liking or disliking a wrestler was to be based soley on their personal life and unprofessional conduct then we'd hate everyone. If people don't like Edge because they never have, fine, but no one is crying for Kevin Sullivan over what Benoit did to him 9 years ago.

 

The "ECW Rules" thing reminded me of Klassic Kurt. As I'm sure you all recall, Raven challenged Angle to an "ECW Rules" match. Kurt accepted but made it clear that ECW doesn't rule, WWF does.

Woah woah woah... woah. Hold the phone, kids. A real life incident being used for the purspoes of a wrestling angle in totally tasteless fashion? Good lord, Matt Hardy is on to something here folks. What is WWE thinking with this bold new direction of capitilizing on true to life disasterpieces? Sgt. Slaughter is rolling over in his sleep just thinking about it.

I kinda miss 'Klassic Kurt'...whatever happened to sweet, innocent Kurt...now all he talks about recently is doing Booker's wife..

DrVenkman, I like your sig with Benjamin. Too bad they didn't bother mention it with Orton tonight.

Thanks... funny thing with Orton is they were making claims about his reign that weren't even true (calling it the lognest reing in 7 years when it would have only been 6) about a month before he lost it. Now Shelton can claim to have held the belt the longest since 1998 and no one has said a word. He's got 55 more days he's been the longest champ since the 1980s

I dunno, even knowing it was coming seeing the actual thing on TV did actually make me kinda sick to the stomach. It's not because I was ever a Hardy Boyz fan or because I hate Edge, it's just that the situation at hand is pretty close to a situation in my personal life early in this year. I mean we all knew it was coming, but to actually see it come off on TV was just fucking wrong. Sorry to those who think "STFU it's just an angle" it's just downright fucked up they'd steal a real life storyline and turn it into this; with Kane now supposed to be playing Matt. Seeing Lita and Edge making out and shit just seemed worse than Katy Vick to me. I was screaming "Fuck RAW" I'm never watching again to my friends in response to the end. I know I'll watch again but it doesn't mean I'm legit. pissed off about what they have done here. It's just fucked up and disrespectful.

Well, I'll mock them. Pfft....What Vince did in Montreal and HBK's shoot comments the night after the screwjob along with Bischoff/nWo on nitro was 100x worse than this tonight. Although, it was throwing it in people's faces. If they could only make people hate all the heels and love all the faces like this business would explode again.
