The OAO Raw thread for 21st Nov 2005

[Guest *KNK*]

I think Lashley will pick up the Big Show for a slam or something at SSeries, but he'll blow his knee out or tear something.

We could be so lucky.

Yeah because injuring any up and coming talents is exactly what WWE needs right now. I thought we wanted them to make new stars?

[KingPK]

Maria should....nay...MUST wear that dress more often

 

Other than that, I got nothin'.

I want Lashley to have this "moment" at SS where he just beats the shit out of Carlito suddenly, it'll get a big pop and Lashley gets put over and the crowd gets to know him cause half of the RAW viewers don't even watch SD!.

[Guest New Jake]

I like that idea. Carlito deserves a squash job of Lasleys calibur. Not that it would mean much in a SS tag match. But Carlito sucks anyway.

[ChrisMWaters]

What about the idea of Lashley being the guy to break the Masterlock?

 

That would make him as well, even though it will hurt Masters.

 

But I don't like Masters much, so I don't care about that.

Another decent Raw. And the only reason I say that is b/c there are no McMahons in sight.

 

The beatdown segment with raw v SD was Laughable. When they walked toward eachother and had the group stare down, Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” started going in my head and then I thought they were going to break out into a dance (or just burst out laughing).

 

Masters needs to go. He is Horrible. His look towards the car that Batista landed on for the chokeslam spot made him really look like a monkey (yes, I do want a JBL Masters feud).

 

I think Batsita’s kayfabed injury was poorly done. I mean, it sounded like a sledge hammer (which it prob was) hit the car, instead of a 350-lb man landing on it. Also, there was a huge crack on the windshield wear batista’s head supposedly “hit.” If a skull hit a windshield that hard, shouldn’t batista’s head be bleeding or hurting? No he sells his legit injury. Stupid WWE logic.

 

All in all this whole SS raw v SD is meh. It seems that no one really cares about the feud, mainly b/c they don’t have any real beef with eachother. This whole face and heels unite for the good of the brand is boring. I don’t buy it.

 

I think Cena’s promo was borrowing a little from DX and the Rock. God, why can’t he just do the stuff that got him over to begin with. I don’t know about fans booing him. I didn’t hear it and I was listening for it. I do see the ‘E slamming him down our throats and it is REALLY going to backfire if they keep doing this. I think I would’ve died if one of the fans in the stands took the mic and said “You’re a poser, Angle rules!” or something like that. After the house show v. HHH, I’m surprised they put that much trust in the fans. Maybe they didn’t. Maybe they were all plants. Who knows?

 

Crappy show for a build-up show to the ppv.

I never thought about that, but that could very well be the guy to break it. It sure as hell would give him a big boost if he's the guy to break a hold no one has broken in 9 months. I can see Lashley getting on quite a run on this match until he runs into the brick wall that is Show & Kane.

I don't know how much of it is her own personal doing, and how much is her being told what to do, but Candice has done more of the little things needed to make her seem like a heel in the last few weeks than any male wrestler I can think of. Lying on the ropes, stepping on Mickie James on her way out of the ring, etc ... I've always been a fan of the little things, and she seems to be one of the only ones that's doing them.

 

Of course, with Candice, I'm also a fan of the big things, too.

[hyperchord24]

Didn't rey rey break the master lock at TT?

 

On a completely unrelated subject: Is it too mark-ish that I kinda dig the shirt HBK was wearing at raw, you know the "rise above" T-shirt?

[Team Angle Pusher]

Rey didn't really "break" the Masterlock, that isn't considered breaking a hold.

What did he do then? Just slip out of the hold?

[cabbageboy]

I already thought of Lashley just kicking the shit out of Carlito (we can all agree he has to be the first elimination I hope). I'm torn on Lashley in this thing. I almost thought he could be a survivor if the Smackdown team wins to really put him over. Certainly can't see him eating a pin this early, so if he is eliminated it'd be him fighting Kane or TBS on the outside and be counted out.

 

Also thought of the Masterlock spot too. Finally a big mofo who can break out of that lame full nelson. I even had the initial thought that Batista could tap out to the Masterlock since he's injured (provided he can even get into it with his injury) and then Lashley can break the move, making him look even better.
