Its the same in America
Jonh Cena appreciation night.
Isn't that a weekly thing? Hur hur.

Ah, well it's good to see the senseless booking has carried over to 2015.
Jaysus, Cena looked a decent wrestler in those highlight moments against Angle.
he is a decent wrestler. he got a decent match out of Khali! his debut was a very good match, quite different to his current style. having angle there helped though
I have no idea what they're doing with Reigns or Wyatt and I don't think they do either.
Commentary with just the 7 put downs of The Ascension during their match. Way to build up a tag team. 
I think he's quite underrated because of his mixed popularity, when he wants to be he's a fine wrestler, even if his submission is awful.
Harper vs Rowan, no build. Am I the only one thinking this is pretty fecking clueless?

That was the biggest joke. Their presentation is different to NXT for one (you would think they would show some footage of their dominance from NXT to educate the masses). They then have them promo to say they are better than Demolition and LOD. Then the heel commentator trashes them through the whole match.
Ive realised im only watching this live because I cant sleep this early and dont start work until 12 tomorrow. But even still, I have no idea why except out of habit. This whole show has been trash. Its 2015 and:
-Authority and Cena 20 minute promo to start Raw
-Barrett is a heel yeah? Then why did he return against heel Cesaro and beat him? It was only one fecking week ago
-Is Big Show really the best they can give Reigns? They are killing his momentum too. A DQ in the match. Shocking.
-Harper vs Rowan, with no build
JBL did the same to the New Day a few weeks ago. He's probably being told to say that stuff through the headset, you'd wonder what they're hoping to achieve by criticising new tag teams/stables.
Yeah its just ridiculous.
Why was Cameron checking on Naomi? Isnt she a heel and turned on Naomi? What?

They should use the ambulance to drive away the dead crowd.
feck WWE.
Dean Ambrose jobbing to Rollins and the boring Wyatt. Just so Wyatt looks good against Undertaker, who should just retire anyway.
Ambrose hasn't even won a PPV. Wonder if Vinces golden boy Reigns would lose 4 times in a row to Wyatt.

To be fair, maybe they went off script. But was pretty disrespectful promo considering Hawk is dead. And they saying they'd throw him off the road.
Im never watching Raw live again (cept the one after WM) for the crowd reactions.
This is terrible. Even the dead are crowd. rofl.

Seriously uneventful Raw. Only Sting coming out can save it, but the crowd will probably remain dead for it haha.
Edit: Shit Raw, shit "shock" ending which the crowd didnt even react to. Probably because it will last as long as Authority being fired. ugh.

What was the point of that? Awful raw.
No idea how I can watch WWE after Wrestle Kingdom, that show was just insane.
Rubbish, indeed.
Anybody watch Impact?
Also Announce team changes for Raw and SD.
Raw: Booker T, JBl and Cole
SD: Cole, Lawler and Saxton.
Not sure why they have Cole on both shows. Should have kept Phillips instead of him on SD. Booker is ok but JBL, wish they would just get rid of him but obviously Vince must be peeing himself backstage every week loving what JBL does.
This means Lawler actually has to watch SD now lol

Lawler will be annoyed he's been bumped from the 'A' show I would assume? Any idea what the PPV announce team will be?
Wouldn't put money on that.
Good riddance to Lawler. Guy has been a fecking joke on Raw for years now.
JBl, Cole, And Lawler.
Hopefully on SD we actually hear them commentate on the matches. IM just glad JBL is not on both shows tbh
Should have retired after the heart attack probably.
He said himself, he's only there to collect a cheque.
Fair fecks to him, if they want to keep paying him regardless of complete lack or care/quality, why shouldn't he take it?

How was JR on Wrestle Kingdom, or whatever it was?
He was OK. He got better as the show went on, and he got into the swing of things. The first match was maybe a bit too fast paced for him to keep up with.
Striker has the knowledge to be a good commentator, but he's just so "LOOK AT ME GUYS, I CAN MAKE REFERENCES. LOVE ME INTERNET!"
Even though he did that I still enjoyed him.
,I'd imagine he(Striker) was still worlds better than "Maggle, Maggle!!" & "Twitter, tout, ha ha King, there's a match on, what match, who cares?"
I would definitely recommend watching the last two matches in English. Both exceptional and JR got into his stride during the match before them, made a very good dynamic. That IC title match is genuinely my new favourite match ever.
As for Striker, I've only seen 3 matches with English commentary but he seemed to be a perfect foil with his wrestling geek knowledge of the guys involved. He was able to fill any awkward silences with facts and figures and correct JR on move names when needed.
Anyway, here's Jeff Hardy killing himself in an empty arena on a show no one will watch:
Based on the camera switch its clearly scripted, but its sorta meta.
My god they need to stop giving him scripts. He clearly can't read someone else's terrible words in any kind of convincing way.
When he closes his eyes I imagine he's trying to remember the words. Doesn't help that WWE clearly don't know what they want him to be.
Looks like they're trying to mould him into Face That Says Funny Things But Is Really Intense In The Ring #846. They tried it with Sheamus as well.
Why cant they just be a less is more with Reigns for now? Just let him say "im going to kick your ass" and then let him kick ass.
That wink was funny though.
