How do they know to play Goldberg's music and that he intends to come to the ring to interrupt if he's still in his locker room?

I mean they admitted that they specifically used Reigns in the Rumble to get a heel a face reaction, so what are they really going for here?

Well the Rumble match was Vince being a genius by sending out his wannabe top babyface to get a crowd pop for a heel/face/tweener. Now....he's just a ****ing moron.....just like at the Rumble. Vince is insane.

There is something I just thought about, and I'm not even sure it means anything, but does anyone else find it odd that with the exception of Nakamura, every former NXT champ is on RAW?

I'm sure that it's probably just a coincidence, but I find it curious

That fact actually furthers the storyline. HHH uses NXT as a testing ground. So their former champs get roles on his wife's show instead of Shane's show.

12 out of 12 does seem like more than a coincidence.

(I'll confess I had no idea that Bo Dallas was on the Raw roster)

I can't possibly conceive how it could turn into a storyline, but I guess it could be some sort of political play behind the scenes by HHH. Who knows

the brand split has absolutely killed the tag team divisions. As bad as Raw's is right now SD is worse. Every single show is just hey lets take our entire division and throw them in a match together! There hasn't been a fraction of a real feud amongst tag teams since the split.

It's lazy and uncompelling. There is no reason each show needs it's own belt.

And then there was last week where they just abandoned the whole "match" concept and send them all out to brawl aimlessly.

It's also injuries, I'm sure JeriKO was going to head up the Raw tag division when they originally split the rosters but they had to move KO to the top of the card and have the WOAT title reign.

Brock showed up last night after RAW because why have him on the show when he's on a per appearance schedule?



F-5 on Big Show is no longer impressive because he now weighs only 396 pounds.

I really wish he would transition into doing the F5 quicker. Kind of the problem with a lot of those fireman carry moves. It looks dumb when the person is just laying there not fighting it. Cena does okay usually actually doing the move right away but stuff like GTS and F5 usually look dumb as hell

Any chance Foley "signs" Nakamura to Raw to face Joe at WM?

Thought CM Punk was the king of it looking terrible. He would pick a guy up and it was like him touching them made them go completely out cold. Either that or being on his back made them immediately want to take a nap.

It might just be because I'm watching on my phone, but the crowd sounds real hot tonight

So is this going to be Cena vs Orton for the first time ever on your phone?

Seeing Luke Harper get this push and crowd reaction makes me so happy. Too bad he probably will lose a lot of his momentum after Orton pins him on Sunday.
