There was something else I wanted to talk about this week but then Cole was just way too infuriating on commentary. What did he do that annoyed me so much? Well find out by listening to the show. Warning; contains excessive use of the word “fuck”.
Last night, yours truly was at the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, attending a live broadcast of the flagship show of the biggest wrestling company on the planet – and my wife was falling asleep from boredom. I’m surprised I wasn’t as well.
That’s not to say that WWE RAW was bad last night. At least, not compared to most other weeks. The problem isn’t that RAW was boring last night. It’s that RAW is boring every week.
This week on BWF Radio, Joe, JT, G, and Mark discuss terrible segments on Monday Night RAW (we’re looking at you, Kathy Lee and Hoda) and how they affect other segments (hello, Joan Lunden). They decide not to spoil tonight’s Bound For Glory TNA Pay-Per-View. The 15th anniversary of SmackDown is discussed.
In the news, why won’t cable channels touch IMPACT? Why did The Rock only punch Rusev on RAW? Who in the world thought it would be a good idea for Brian Christopher Lawler to release a rap album? Plus, Great Muta wants to beat up The Rock, Michael Elgin “quits” Ring of Honor, and B. Brian Blair gets honored by the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. All this and more on BWF Radio episode 147! Tune in!
It’s Thursday and people are still talking about Seth Rollins betraying the SHIELD on Monday night RAW. It was the main angle that sent the show out so that’s understandable. There are also some problems with it.
Alright. I feel like shit. My back hurts, my wrist hurts, and I’m not even going to be around for BWF Radio this Sunday to read this review. Quite simply, this review is going to suck. Deal with it.
I watch 30 minutes of this show, then go to work, watch the rest at work, and write about it. Or some shit like that. Look, do you want to know what happened on RAW or not? Read on.
Daniel Bryan is WWE Champion. I had to check WWE.com again this morning to make sure that actually happened. It wasn’t a figment of my imagination – for once, a WWE PPV ending didn’t piss off me or my houseguests. All is right with the world… or is it?
I watch RAW very late at night and write a recap. What more do you want? Read on.
I’ve been putting off doing tonight’s review. I’ve had RAW ready to go for about an hour now but I didn’t get around to starting this until now. I had far more pressing matters to attend to.
Namely this.
So, a lot of FFWing during this episode coming up. Let’s go!
Blah blah blah 30 minutes, blah blah blah, get to work, blah blah blah whatever.
Well, SummerSlam is in the books, and my predictions, as usual, fell flat. Your WWE Champion coming out of the PPV is Randy Orton, as expected, having cashed in Money In The Bank on Daniel Bryan with help from Triple H. Jorge was so angry, he joined Facebook. Yes, he did. That happened. And I said last week that if Jorge joined Facebook, I’d have to stop phoning in my RAW reviews. (The SmackDown reviews here are phoned in too, but the RAW reviews get better reception.)
I watch 30 minutes of RAW, leave, come to work, watch the rest of the show and writes what I sees. Since RAW is the “A” show, I rarely have to make stuff up for this review, unlike SOME reviews on this site.
Once again, getting a copy of RAW proved sort of difficult this week. Luckily, I knew the alternate place to look this week, but it was still a process. So now it’s 1AM and I’m reviewing RAW. So, let’s go.
I watch 30 minutes of RAW, which is equivalent of how much of SmackDown ISN’T RAW recaps, then leave for work. Then I watch and review the rest, half-assedly because Jorge isn’t on facebook. You want my RAW reviews to get better, don’t you? Then go like Jorge!
