Hey guys! Special congratulations to J&J Security who was chosen by Vanessa to win the Bingo prize! He gets $25 and a guest spot on my podcast that I do immediately after RAW every Monday Night! Wanna hear?

Love the crickets, guys.

Let’s get to RAW!


RAW is in Los Angeles, and I’m 20 minutes away with no pants on. I don’t know if this shows my disinterest in RAW as a live event or my undying love for spending an evening without pants. Perhaps both?

So RAW starts with the epic retelling of the fabled story about Reigns vs Elias. Because, you know, that match wasn’t a one-off that was sold to be the biggest event of the year…

We get the recap of JOE attacking after the match from last week.

RAW starts proper with Angle coming out. He lets us know about the title matches tonight. Tag Titles and IC Title are all on the line. Angle is about to announce who Reigns will take on for the IC TItle and he is interrupted by Jason Jordan. LA does not like Jordan. DELETE chant. Angle makes mention of Jordan’s knee, and Jordan says it’s fine. Jordan names some names and says he’s held his own with all of them. Ever since Roman won, he’s issued an open challenge (Ok, so….this is the second week?). Jordan knows he can beat Roman, he just needs a chance, “Dad.”

Angle looks to give in, but the IC Champ comes interrupts. He comes out, holding his belt like Santa’s sack. Angle claps for Roman.

Reigns says he is a fighting champion, so he’ll tell Angle who he is fighting – and it won’t be Angle’s son. Reigns wants Joe. Reigns has some advice for Jordan – he tells him that if he wants an opportunity, don’t go run to your daddy….step up and take it.

Jordan finds this laughable, wonders how Reigns has a leg to stand on about earning opportunities. Reigns is the poster boy for everything the WWE management wants.

Reigns says he’s on a lot of poster and been on a lot of chairs because he’s main evented a lot of shows. he’s earned it. He wasn’t given it. He grinded for 7 years. Reigns isn’t going to give Jordan anything, and if he wants something he could step up and take it.

Well that just doesn’t make any sense…

Samoa Joe has heard enough of the nonsensical “I won’t fight you but if you want, you can fight me” shit and comes out. He would love to watch these two puff up their chest and pretend to talk tough, but his patience has worn thin. Reigns, if he’s done patronizing the kid, Joe accepts the challenge. He will give Reigns five seconds to withdrawal.

Jordan talks ot Joe, says he doesn’t have to try and talk tough. Crowd boos him and Reigns looks at him questioning.

Jordan says he IS tough and issues challenges to peoples’ face, just like he’s doing to Joe. Right now.

Reigns pushes Jordan away and tells him to stay in his lane. Reigns says the five seconds are done. Jordan grabs Reigns. BELLY TO BELLY! Probably would have looked better if it didn’t start with a cute little hug.

Angle holds Jordan back as Reigns stirs up. Reigns stands, grabs a mic, says it’s not going down. Reigns tells Joe he can wait for later tonight. Jordan can get it right now. Yay! Two Roman matches!!!

He is well-versed in all facets of the multiverse. He has battled alongside Genghis Khan, danced with Cleopatra, meditated atop the great pyramid of Giza. Bray says the ramblings of a mad man are dangerous. Matt: He says he has been in a vessel called Matthew Hardy, but now he is AWOKEN! Bray – His heart is pumping and there is a fire that is only growing stronger. His fire will not cleanse or save us. It will make sure all of us burn. Matt – He tells Bray that there is no choice. He sentences Bray to….DELETION!!! Bray laughs this off and Matt returns the chuckles! Back to Bray who laughs it off some more. Matt does the same. This is so beautiful.
