Smell that? It’s Wrestlemania Season looming…and what better way to celebrate than to play some BINGO!!!

Announcement coming shortly!

RAW
IS
About to Start and I’m not wearing any underwear!!!


We start RAW in the back, and Foley has gained shirt, but lost hair. Seth Rollins is with him, and announces his officially entrance into the Royal Rumble. Braun comes up, seething, as he has apparently held onto an anger for an entire week. He yells over Seth towards Mick that he wants Reigns and Goldberg, and he wants them 7 days from the day he was speared.

Seth takes offense to being spoken over, literally and figuratively. Braun attacks, and they brawl. The Banshee that is Stephanie McMahon starts yelling at randoms to get the situation under control, or everyone will be fired, while at the same time, asking Foley to confirm the rumors that The Undertaker will be here.

Foley says he will be here, and ends the mess of a segment.

Lordy, that was bad.

For some unknown reason, Owens and Jericho will face Roman Reigns in a handicap match for the US Title. Why do I feel like I missed an entire first hour of RAW?

Before this match could start, Braun Strowman’s music hits. Reigns heads out of the ring and rushes towards Braun. He goes for the attack, but Braun takes over and sends Reigns back into the ring. Jericho and Owens double team until Braun comes in. He clubs Reigns down hard. All three men stomp down on Reigns. Jericho holds Reigns up, and Braun hits a right hand. Owens attacks. Braun with a few kicks. After some ample punishment, Seth Rollins heads down the ramp with a chair. He attacks Braun, then Owens and Jericho with the chair. He smacks the back of all men. Reigns grabs a chair, too! He knocks Braun down to his knees. Both men hit him on the back and stand tall in the ring. Braun heads to the outside of the ring.

Stephanie McMahon is here to fix things up. She promised a handicap match for the US Title, and we’re going to get it. She’s going to give Roman some time to recuperate. As for Rollins, he gets to fight Braun right now.


Match 1: Seth Rollins vs Braun Strowman

Rollins is uick to attack in the corner, but Braun gets him on his shoulders and shoves him forward, Seth attacks the left leg from behind, clips it, then gets goozled. Kick to the side, but Braun drops him and keeps hold of the leg. Seth uses the ropes to rtry and kick away, but Braun grabs both legs. He pulls, and Seth tries to land on his feet. Too bad, Seth as Braun clocks him in the back hard before he can fully stand. Boot to the next of Seth, and the ref stops him. Splash in the corner, and Seth falls down.

Clothesline, but Braun is still standing. ANother. Roundhouse kick from Seth, a kick to the chest, he hits the ropes. Braun lifts the dude off the ropes, and just drops him down hard in a modified spinebuster. Sick ass. Braun hits the ropes as Seth stands on the apron. Hard shoulder tackle sends Seth down to the mat outside.

Braun is pissed. He grabs Seth and sends him back into the ring. Braun grabs a chair from the timekeeper’s area. He smacks the ringpost, so you know it’s real. Braun heads into the ring, but Seth dropkicks the chair into Braun! He steals the chair and protects the ring with it as Braun tries to enter. Braun gets to the ramp side, is about to get in, dodges a chair shot, then considers his options. Seth’s music plays, so Braun takes the nod and heads to the back.

We are back, after a break, and we get a recap of Bayley’s win from last week when Bayley beat Nia with the help of Sasha Banks.

Backstage, Sasha and Bayley are talking about last week. Sasha says her knee is ok. Sasha calls Bayley’s win “crazy.” Bayley shows massive excitement for the Rumble. She has beaten Charlotte before and she can do so again. Sasha then says after the Rumble…a little Bayley-Boss action, ya know? Sasha says she knows Charlotte better than anyone, and she has Bayley’s back if necessary.

In comes Charlotte for clapping. She then horribly acts while calling Sasha Banks a horrible actress. She claims that people really believe Sasha cares about Bayley? Charlotte brings up her PPV record. Charlotte and Sasha bicker for a moment until….

Nia Jax comes from the right, doesn’t say a damned word, and just clips Sasha from behind the leg. Fuck, I love Sasha, but that was sick.

Charlotte attacks Bayley, and both faces are laid out. Charlotte claps the back of Nia, proud of the heeldom. Nia isn’t feelin it, and grabs the non-existent lapels of Charlotte, and shoves her into some boxes.

We head back to two weeks ago, where Gallagher embarrassed Daivari, followed by last Tuesday, when Daivari attacked Jack during 205.


Match 2: Drew Gulak vs Jack Gallagher

Nice little lockup turns into an ankle lock of sorts from Gulak. Gallagher turns it into a scissors lock on the leg, and Gulak sells it well. Gallagher drops him, but Gulak grabs the ropes. Gulak sends GHallagher to the outside, but Jack comes back in, gets catched, and body slammed into the bottom rope. Aries is, again, on commentary. Gulak on the second rope. He flies off and hits aclothesline to the throat. Cover for 1..2…NO! Gulak pulls back on both arms from behind, locking in a straight jacket of sorts. Gulak Jack tries to escape, but it’s a no go as Gulak drives a knee to the back. Gallagher finally gets out, only to eat a knee to the gut. Gulak wishes Gallagher to the corner, and he swings up. He is fully upside down, tricks Gulak into stopping a running hit. He rolls out, lands on his feet, sends Gallagher away, boots, then a headbutt!

Gallagher with a running dropkick! Pin for 1…2…3!!!

Winner: Jack Gallagher
Gallagher is just a joy to watch, and my recap did not give his trickery justice.

In the middle of the ring, Rebecca NoName asks Jack about Daivari. Jack says he deserves a thrashing, but he is an extraordinary gentleman and wants to offer the olive branch. He invites Daivari to 205 Live to parlay. Jack says this is an opportunity for two gentlemen to come to terms of agreements, and if Daivari doesn’t agree, he’ll be forced to give Daivari some fisticuffs.

Backstage, TJ Perkins is having a chat with Michaels. Oh lord….TJ is teaching Shawn Michaels how to dab….

Foley is backstage looking for The Undertaker. He asks some stagehands if they’ve seen him. Steph walks up. Foley says he’ll know when Taker is here, he’s got a feeling. Steph says she needs to rely on facts, and Foley’s performance review depends on Taker’s appearance. Foley has one hour.

This makes no sense to me.

HBK IS HERE! He tells the crowd to keep chanting, because that was a long run. He says he has missed us all, and to be perfectly honest, he misses coming out here on a regular basis, especially this time of year. In January, things just start to pick up a little bit. HBK brings up the Rumble. He says that this year, it’s in his hometown. He would be remiss if he didn’t “Remember the Rumble” of 20 years ago. For those that may not have been alive – and yes, he is that old – and old enough for them to chant anything, and he’ll knock it out the park. hahaha. Solid!

He says The Rumble will be something to remember. Goldberg, Brock, Braun, Seth – HBK is much more comfortable sittin on the outside looking in when you’re going agains that lot.

Crowd with the ONE MORE MATCH chant. He tells the crowd not to pressure him. He says that HBK is going to teach us how to stand up to peer pressure. As happy as he is about The Rumble, he is here to pimp his new movie. He wants us to write down the release date. 1/20/17, in case you were wondering. Something that really works for him is…

Well, we don’t know, because Rusev is here to interrupt. Lana is wrapped in seaweed, and it looks great. Oh yeah, Jinder is here, too.

Rusev tells HBK that if he wants the movie to be successful, then Lana needs to be in it. HBK says he isn’t the biggest movie guy, but the movie is already done, edited, and coming out January 20th. They can’t really just put someone in. Rusev says he doesn’t care. You can just CGI her in like that stupid Star Wars movie did. Eeeek. HBK says CGI doesn’t work that way. CGI mostly just controls ugly monsters or big hairy wookie—actually, that might work out.

The crowd chants, and Rusev hilariously looks around and says “What?”

It’s Sweet Chin Music. Rusev says “He doesn’t even do it anymore!”

Rusev calls himself the Bulgarian George Clooney, and Lana is more beautiful than Emma Stone.

Jinder just stands.

HBK makes a Golden Globes joke, and Rusev calls this an American joke, because he doesn’t get it. Haha.

Rusec says the movie will fail without Lana just like HBK’s career.

Enzo and Cass are here to join in on the fun! Enzo is still tippin on fo fos. They both head into the ring, and Enzo is on one leg. He says he never does this, but the Realest Guy in the room is right there, and his name is Shawn Michaels. With that being said, Enzo has a question….what do we got ova here???

Shawn says “Haters!”

Enzo: “A cuppa hatas?”

Enzo is going to admit something; Rusev is right. Lana is a phenomenal actress – one of the best. Every morning she’s gotta wake up next to Rusev and act like she’s not repulsed. How ya doin?

With that being said, don’t sell themselves short. They’re great actors. If they were in a movie, what movie would you put them in?

Cass: The 40 Year Old Virgin, Puss in Boots, Beauty and The Beast, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, and The Pianist.

Enzo says ya can’t be sayin that on this show.

Cass clears it up.

HBK has a movie. He says “Dumb and Dumber.”

Rusev calls them American Pigs. They put Enzo in a wheel chair, and they’ll put HBK and Cass right next to him. Cass steps up, tells Rusev if they’ve got a problem, then he and Rusev can finish this one on one right now. Rusev offers Cass a match…..against Jinder Mahal.

Cass says he thinks that them three are going to prove that there’s only one word for Rusev, Jinder, and Lana.

HBK says since he’s got nowhere to be until January 20th, he’s gonna go ahead and stay out here during this little match, and if you’re not down with that, we’ve got two words for ya….

SUCK IT!!!

Like this segment did.


Speaking of things that will not die, I have a podcast, and have had it for a while now! It starts 20 minutes after RAW! Call in and speak to the man behind the report! Just click Sasha below, and listen in!


Match 3: Big Cass vs Jinder Mahal

We come back to the match just in its infancy. Cass with a shoyulder tackle, knocks Jinder down hard. Jinder locks ihmself up in the ropes. Jinder attack the back, then hits a kick and a cover for 1…NO! JInder chokes Cass up on the 2nd rope and gets the four count. Jinder backs up, then goes back to the hold until 4. Jinder covers for 1. Jinder with a cravat from behind. Hard kick from behind by Mahal. Cass is in the corner, Mahal stomps, backs up, then runs right into a big ass boot. Cass ewith a splash, then he tosses Jinder across the ring. Another splash, Jinder hits the ropes, Rusev distracts, and Mahal hits Cass from behind.

Outside of the ring, HBK with SWEET CHIN MUSIC RO RUSEV!!!

Hey guys…you’ve been great….here’s a Jojo


My buddy Michael reviews a Ghost Pepper. Live. On Stage. Like an idiot.


Backstage, Steph tells someone to remove flowers. Sasha and Bayley come through to ask for a match against Charlotte and Nia. Steph then tells Sasha that her shirt doesn’t make her a boss. Sasha gets in the face of Steph, but Bayley holds her back. Bayley tries to talk to her, and Steph shuts her down. She says the match won’t be next week; it’ll be tonight.

Steph gets in the face of Sasha to say, “Get the HELL out of my office.”

Right…..

Lockup to start, and Gallows gets a side headlock. Sheamus fights out of it, reverses into a side headlock of his own. Sheamus with a tackle. Knee from gallows then an uppercut.

Emma is coming soon. You, however, are not.

Backstage, Roman Reigns is staring at his US Title. Whitney What’s Her Name wonders how Reigns feels. Reigns says any time he’s in the ring with Owens and Jericho, he spears their guts out and he holds the title over his head. Tonight won’t be any different.

Mick Foley is in the ring. He says he and Taker have travelled to the depths of hell. He carries scars with him, and carries them with great pride. He is calling on The Undertaker now for one more encounter, right here on Monday Night RAW.

Of course, The Undertaker is on his way, but it takes roughly two weeks.

Foley says he needs The Undertaker to be here….right here, in New Orleans, LA.

Awkward placement of a cheap pop.

Foley says he has done this for 32 years, and during this time, he has had no greater honor than to be in this ring while that entrance happens. He remembers Paul Bearer showing him his arms as the entrance played.

The lights go out, interrupting Foley.

And…..it’s Stephanie McMahon.

Wow….

Steph apologizes for Foley’s inability to produce The Undertaker. Mick has given Steph no choice but to give his performance review publicly. This crowd’s reaction is all because of Mick. How does this make them feel? Foley has had a number of successes. Sheamus and Cesaro, the first ever Women’s HITC match, Jericho in the shark cage, all of these are successes. But for every step forward, she feels like he takes two steps back. Zayn, the Cruiserweight division on the line, Braun, and allowing Smackdown to beat RAW in the ratings….that’s all due to Foley. Of course, tonight, the empty buzz that fills the arena due to Taker’s absence. She trusted him. What does he have to say?

Foley wants Steph to know how sorry h—

DONG!!!!!

The Undertaker: “I’m Back.”

He finds it important that the world should know that he will be entering the Royal Rumble.

Backstage, Braun Strowman is watching.

No, seriously, they show this.

He answers to no one. He goes where he wants, when he wants. Nobody controls The Undertaker. The Undertaker walks directly up to Steph, and repeats himself.

He has returned to the city where he has suffered his most devestating loss, and where The Streak came to its demise. His journey continues to the Royal Rumble. He’s dugged 29 holes for 29 souls, and he will be bringing The Dark Side to the Royal Rumble match. After he wins, he will return to the main event at Wrestlemania, and if anyone – he means anyone – stands in his way, they will….REST….IN….PEACE!

Jericho and Owens are backstage with Natalie Neverhere and she brings up the excitement for Taker.

Owens questions the love for someone who shows up whenever they want. He brings up Roman and says he will suffer whenthey take his US title away. Jericho says that tonight, they will be the US champion. For 100 days, US has been embarrassed by their champion. It’s time for them to fix America. Two Canadians as the face of America.


Match 7: Sasha Banks and Bayley vs Nia Jax and Charlotte

Sasha and Charlotte to start. Charlotte goes fo rthe knee. Sasha kicks her away. Rolup and Sasha rolls through. She beats down a bit, then tosses Charlotte into the corner. Blind tag from Nia, and Sasha hits a hard right in the face! Nice start.

Backstage, Noam is checkin himself out in a mirror. Fox comes up from behind. He is all smiles. He extends his cheek out for a kiss. He says Cedric isn’t man enough to handle him. ZHe asks for a good one. Alicia turns him, dips him, then lays it in on him! Huge kiss to the dude, and he is shook. Alicia says that Cedric was right – he can’t handle a real woman.

After a commercial break, we come back to New Day in the ring with Titus O’Neil.

Apparently, he has apologized for last week. He really wants to join The New Day. Woods knows; they got his texts and tweets. When he said his DMs were open, he was not talking to Titus.

Titus blows the whistle on that. He says it is universally known that it goes down in the DMs.

Titus asks for a chance. Kofi says they get it; he wants tot ake the bull by the horns, but kofi says that they found a time where Titus looked more like a bull in a china shop.

We go back to NXT, 2010 and bring back the worst memories of my 411mania career ever. Constant replay of his Keg run tumble bring me back to my humble beginnings, and I can honestly say that I’ve advanced more in my 411mania career than Titus has in his wrestling career.

Kofi is by the ramp outside, and say that this is TItus’ chance at redemption. He unveils a keg. Oh fuck…

We get 12.7 seconds on the clock, and Titus is willing to redeem himself. GO! Titus lifts the keg and rushes around the ring. He hits one corner, the second, the third, nearly beats his record by….about .6 seconds. The ref argues with Titus about something, so Kofi asks for a replay.

Looks like he dropped the keg before crossing the line, thus not winning anything.

Titus gets a little angry and the short of it is a match with Kofi is next.


Match 8: Titus O’Neil vs Kofi Kingston

Kofi starts with kicks to the leg. Dropkick to Titus. Kofi goes for the SOS, but Titus just lifts his ass up and swings him down to the mat. Pretty cool.

Kofi to the ropes. Big Boot from Titus. Cover for 1..2..NO! Titus goes for another slam, but Kofi goes for a rollup. Titus lifts Kofi up instead and headbutts him. Chop attempt on the top rope. Kofi with a kick, another. Kofi flies, and Titus hits a backbreaker, again, then tosses Kofi aside. Titus goes for a third slam, but Woods plays Francesca. Titus tosses Kofi over the top rope and New Day catches him.

Titus leaves the ring, chases Kofi into the ring. Kofi spins him. Trouble in Paradise. Pin for 1..2…3!!!
