Caught abit of WWE on Sky1 , saw The Rock back :dance: , Mick Foley has seemed to leave TNA as I saw him too
Undertaker is probably going to continue his 'record' , does anyone ever think they'll make him lose at a WM ?

I doubt it. The only one I could possibly see ever taking the streak is Cena.
Cena :bow:
Greatest of all time?
WM tonight. :popcorn:
Didn't feel compelled to purchase it this year, the main events seem a little too predictable. Might try and find a stream though.
Barrett
Cena
Del Rio, Ziggler cashes in
Taker
Shield
Ryback
Hell No
HHH
Fandango
Team Rhode Scholars
Pre-show is on. I haven't bought the event, don't want them to think I am buying it to watch Twice in a Lifetime.
Please tell me they haven't actually called it Twice in a Lifetime.
No they haven't.
Greatness vs Redemption. :rolleyes:
J.R shoots down Punk's chances.
Possibly Rocks last ever match?
Hoping to get back to watching Raw on a weekly basis after WM.
Need to find 2 hours somewhere to watch it
I don't think so, as far as I am aware he will be around for Summerslam if not Extreme Rules or the terribly named 'Payback'.
20% chance of rain apparently. I'd love to see what they would do if it hammers down.
Barely a five minute match I think.
Just read WM results
Punk - Taker was a very good match, Fandango vs Jericho was entertaining (not that it lasted long), the 3 on 3 was a decent way to start the event.
Everything else was absolute crap.
Everything went as expected then.
Roll on WM 30.
Even though Cena won the ending is pretty much all about The Rock. There were even boos when Rock was paying respect to Cena. :lol:
Just watching Punk vs Undertaker on Youtube before it gets taken down. Great match, Punk is the best in the business tbf.
He is tbh.
Wearing classic Undertaker colours. :bow:
Marked out when he did Old School. And I guess that's the best sign when a wrestler is a good wrestler.
Cena Rock was hilarious. About five minutes in they were going for finishers and that's all they did from that point on.
Ah I didn't even realise the significance of the purple gear. :bow:
Read some reports on it. Pretty much what Maccy says
RAW was actually quite good, though mainly thanks to the crowd.
Singing along to Fandango's theme music isn't going to leave my head for quite a while.
Just read the Raw results
Sounds awesome
British fans :bow:Quote:
BRITISH wrestling fans helped instigate one of the most incredible atmospheres in wrestling history on Monday night.
And amazingly much of it consisted of singing the theme music to a wrestler who six weeks ago was expected to be a major flop.
WWE Raw came from the Izod Centre, New Jersey, just yards from MetLife Stadium where Wrestlemania took place 24 hours previously.
It promised to be a historic show, as Raw the night after Mania tends to be. It was — but not for the reasons expected.
Throughout the three-hour show, the spectacle became the range of chants, resembling a football match, which at times entirely distracted from the in-ring action.
Things started with John Cena, who as expected was booed and taunted by fans.
Cena’s reaction was hilarious, though, including him pretending to dance a ‘heel turn’, a direct reference to a group of hardcore fans wanting to see him as an on-screen villain.
Then came the indicator that it was the transatlantic travelling fans that were the catalyst.
England’s Wade Barrett was rapturously cheered — a rare occurrence outside of the UK.
Barrett received chants of ‘Eng-er-land’ and ‘Wade Barrett’s barmy army’ before getting a massive ovation as he won the intercontinental title back from The Miz.
Soon, after Alberto Del Rio had been left ‘injured’ following a match with Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler cashed in Money in the Bank to become the new world heavyweight champion.
The reaction for his appearance and subsequent win was as loud as anything on Raw this century.
But it was when Sheamus and Randy Orton entered the ring that things went up a notch.
Before the fight began Orton appeared to entirely lose his stride, pausing mid-sentence and asking the Irishman, off mic, “What’s my line?”.
Once their match started – a perfectly acceptable encounter, by the way – all hell broke loose.
The fans, rejecting what they were presented with, made their own fun.
Chants came not for the two men in the ring but for Mike Chioda the referee, all three commentators, the late Randy Savage, Rob Van Dam (a free agent rumoured to be heading back to WWE) HBK and others, before it turned into a Mexican wave.
Before the match came to a conclusion, the 500lb Big Show monster they had teamed with the evening before came and took them both out. “Thank you, Big Show” cried New Jersey, in unison.
And there was Fandango. The man with the dancing gimmick waltzed to the ring, and the crowd began to join in with his entrance music. They then continued to sing it well into his match.
The crowd popped heavily for a Jericho run-in and beatdown, but resumed their cheers for Fandango after the fallen dancer breathlessly repeated his name, restarting their rendition of his theme.
The next match was the eight-person tag dropped from Mania involving Tons of Funk, Rhodes Scholars and The Bellas.
The crowd opted to ignore this and continue singing the Fandango theme.
The main event was John Cena v Mark Henry (the fans sang the World’s Strongest Man’s theme too) and as the new champ and his mammoth opponent locked the audience... sang the Fandango song again.
John Cena even danced a little to acknowledge their singing and got a rare ovation for doing so.
By the end of the night he had been left lying by Ryback, but this wasn’t the story.
On a night where two titles changed hands, storylines progressed and even Undertaker made an appearance that may signal his involvement at the next Pay Per View, the story of Raw was the crowd.
Last night the theme, named ‘ChaChaLaLa’, was at 156 in the UK iTunes charts – and rising.
We at SunSport supporting the campaign to get it charting. You can purchase it here.
Now, if you’ll excuse us, Raw in London at the O2 Arena is only a couple of weeks away, and we have a quickstep to learn.
Duh Duh. Da da dada da da da da. Duh duh dada da da da da...
I watched some of these chants on Youtube, pretty funny. :lol:
You have to hand it to the GHELS, they know how to create an atmosphere.
You hardly ever hear the same pops anymore like you got during the Attitude Era.
Kids. :rolleyes:
Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal on SilverVision. Ordered 'NWO The Revolution'. 'Shawn Michaels:My Journey', and 'History of The World Heavyweight Championship'. That'll do for fewer than 17 sovs!
Very good value.
Also, 'Taker will be at RAW in London.
Serious?
Ffs
Wonder if there's still time to get tickets
Lesnar vs Triple H in a cage match should be good. I assume that will be the last we see of the big name part timers for a while.
At which point I will stop tuning in.
Chances of the following being at Raw next week? 1 being the lowest, 10 the highest
Brock
Triple H
Rock
Punk
Jericho
Very unlikely for Lesnar to appear but I suppose there is a 7 or 8 chance of Triple being there to answer the cage match challenge.
Rock and Punk no chance, and I have no idea about Jericho as I haven't followed his feuds.
Awesome that Undertaker will be there though, I bet most American fans are jealous considering he doesn't have normal matches anymore.
I just got a ticket
I'm going to see the Undertaker.
The only reason I'm going.
I can tick this off as one thing I wanted t do before I die
Watched the doc on the NWO DVD. Nash's contributions are frigging hilarious (of course). As for Kidman however, I think he'd struggle to even make it into the Super Heavyweight class these days! Until his name was captioned I didn't recognise him!
Into the matches next...
Bill 'Hugh Morrus' DeMott had a lot of interesting things to say too. Oh, and Luger seems to be modelling himself on Tony Benn these days :lol:
These days, You really Can't Powerbomb Kidman!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=DbOyvhSd0pw Remember playing this one in Game in Wakefield. Highlight of this video? Debra giving Undertaker a backslide :lol:
Vince McMahon sees some serious potential in Default Man. :lol:

What sort of material does Foley use? Must be wrestling related otherwise it would be just weird.
Primarily it is yes. I think he explains things a bit for non-fans though.
Looking forward to it, I got the very last 'standard' ticket available. All others were 'buy-backs' beginning at 80 quid!!
