  2. WWE RAW 6/16/14 – RAW is somehow not future endeavored

    Leave a Comment

    If anybody hasn’t seen the tweets from the BoredWrestlingFan Twitter, I’m trying to replace myself as the resident RAW reviewer here on the site.  It’s a volunteer job.  I wish I could pay people to do this.  The job may only be temporary.  I’m still hoping RYTMAN comes back at some point.  Oh well.  Let’s go, shall we?

    I suffer through RAW so you don’t have to.  Read on.

  3. WWE RAW 6/9/14 – BWF 6th Birthday Edition!

    2 Comments

    BWF it’s your birthday!  Happy birthday BWF!  Yes, six years ago I started BoredWrestlingFan.com as a site for fans, by fans, and I’ve gotten to do some cool stuff over the years because of it.  Not make any money, mind you, but I got to meet guys like Johnny Gargano and Gregory Iron, get threatened by the late Matt Borne, and talk yoga with Diamond Dallas Page.  I’ve also been stuck doing this RAW review.  Oh well, let’s go.

    30 minutes home, the rest here, blah blah blah just click the link.

  4. WWE RAW 6/2/14: Payback for Payback?

    Leave a Comment

    Twenty-five years I’ve been watching WWE television, week in, week out, without question.  I never miss RAW, which since 1993 has been the only television show I watch on Monday nights.  Well, aside from watching Nitro on picture-in-picture of course.  But something happened last night that made me question why I’m such a loyal viewer of this program.  I watched an entire 3-hour RAW live on TV.  This was the first time since they made the permanent switch that I’ve watched the show live as it aired without actually being in the arena, and I’ve gotta tell you, I can’t understand how people do this every week.  I found myself checking the time once every 15 minutes or so once I hit the 90 minute mark.  “It’s gotta be close to 11 by now.”  Nope, 10:15.  The fact is, there wasn’t anything really going on to advance storylines or anything either.  So we’re talking 3 hours of filler.  In fact, only the overrun was worth watching.  So today, I’m not going to watch the show over again and review it – I’m going to recap it using Ian’s Intense Post-Payback Raw Recap from AngryMarks.com as a reminder of what, exactly, I watched in those 3 agonizing hours last night.

    Well, this should be interesting.  Let’s go.

  5. WWE RAW 5/26/14 – RAW is Memorial Day

    Leave a Comment

    First things first.  Happy Memorial Day, and a thank you to those who have made that ultimate sacrifice to allow guys like me to sit here and talk about whatever the hell they want to on the internet.  Second, happy 3rd Anniversary to my beautiful wife, Mrs. ThinkSoJoE.  Third, happy birthday to my friend and BWF Radio co-host Mark Noyce.  Now that the formalities are out of the way, let’s get this 3 hour show out of the way.  This is one of those “I don’t feel like watching this show” nights.  So we’re going to skip through it and give you basically what you need to know to follow the current storylines.  Sound good?  Let’s go.

    I watch 30 minutes, leave, then watch the whole show from the beginning, just so you don’t have to.  Maybe that’s why ratings are slumping?

    Alrighty then.

    IHWE Radio host Michael McCurdy joins Joe, Jorge, G, and Mark after JT leaves to talk about his podcast, WCCW, BlogTalkRadio, IHWE founder David Fuller, porn mail, and much more.  Not necessarily in that order.  We recap the week in professional wrestling.  In the news, we talk about the downfall of the WWE stock, and investigations into it.  We talk about the WWE Network and the actual number of subscribers needed to break even.  We talk about the contracts of Mick Foley, Bret Hart, Sting, and Kurt Angle.  Speaking of Mick Foley, we play his HUGE announcement from this past week.  All this, and much much more on BWF Radio!

    That’s one way to learn. Vince is probably greatly depressed right now.

    Jorge takes a day off, and Joe regails us with tales of his car crash and last night’s Empire State Wrestling event in Lockport, NY.  We run down the week in pro wrestling television, including Alicia Fox’s tantrum, Damien Sandow’s defiance, MVP’s heel turn, and The Shield’s beat down of Evolution and several lower card talents at once.  In the news, TNA may be having some financial issues, but could WWE be on the brink of destruction?  The crew throw out some dire theories on the future of WWE as the stock price continues to plummet.  Why did Harry Smith choke some guy out in Amsterdam?  What happened to Roman Reigns’ face?  What does Chris Masters have against Cesaro?  All this and more on this week’s episode of BWF Radio!

    So.  You guys know how I usually do these – I watch two hours, drive to work, and watch the whole show just to remember what I watched to write it down here.  Well, I no longer drive to work – I dosed off behind the wheel and wrapped my car around a light post – and did just as much damage to the post as my totalled car.  I, however, am fine.  A few bruises and abrasions, but nothing a little OTC pain reliever won’t fix, should I feel bad enough to actually take that shit.  Oh well.  In the immortal words of Pink Floyd, the show must go on!

    Ouch.  Ow.  Aaaaahhhh.  Oh man my ribs and knees hurt – yet nothing is actually damaged.  Oh well, screw it, let’s go.  Click the button.

    Maybe if Adam Rose and Zeb Colter did DDP Yoga they’d be able to tilt their heads that far…

    On this episode of BWF Radio, JT proves that it’s not just our guests that have trouble getting through to the show.  G leaves early, but not before talking about the upcoming Original Stampede Wrestling event, “Taco or No Taco?”  Mark forgets about a fellow Brit, and Jorge…  well, we love Jorge (Simpsons reference!).  And Joe has to maintain order amongst them.  We talk WWE Extreme Rules, and all of the great wrestling television on for the week.  Brie Bella’s bad acting is discussed.  In the news, we talk about the whereabouts of Chris Sabin and Kaz.  We find out the depths of where the WWE stock has plummeted before discussing becoming shareholders ourselves.  We ponder whether or not you have to have an ACL before Kurt Angle can have surgery on his.  Dixie Carter puts her foot in her virtual mouth on Twitter again.  All this and much more, on BWF Radio Episode 125!

    You know, I think my couch might be a little too comfortable.  Last night I fell asleep watching Extreme Rules, which was a solid event top to bottom, and tonight I fell asleep watching RAW.  Maybe it’s just me recovering from the illness that kept me from doing this RAW review last week.  Who knows.  Maybe it was RAW that put me to sleep?  Guess we’ll find out over the next few hours.  Let’s go!

    Blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda.  You know my deal by now.  Watch at home, leave before it ends, watch again to review.  Just click the jump.
