Official Monday Night Raw & Smackdown Thread

Anyone who enjoys watching the WWE Hall Of Fame in its entirety, WWE has announced that they will air it on the WWE Network.

Maybe I missed it due to not watching Raw, but did they shorten Antonio Cesaros name to just "Cesaro"?

[frizzzlecake]

I missed RAW last night due to being asleep the entire day. I guess one good thing to come from RAW without spoiling the matches for myself was this.

WWE HOF Inductee:

I hope Kane and Gretzski(sp) induct her....and Gretzski kick's another "baby." lmao

[Zeppelin1985]

How about Danny Doring or Amish Roadkill? Oh, never employed by the E? Then how about Essa Rios? lol

[Greengoblin782]

Sorry for the huge photos, but this Wrestlemania line up would be epic.

Did the E really decide to drop Langston from Big E.'s name? Biggy...Big E. same difference...

So this is the second wrestlers name that they shortened. I wonder what there thinking is behind this.

[Zeppelin1985]

What other wrestler's name did the E shorten?

Also, is that your own personal dream card for WrestleMania xXx?

They Shorted Antionio Cesaro to just "Cesaro" now. The dream card that I posted above this is from the editors at WWE.

Seeing as how I now know this isn't a dream card you personally made but rather the "editors" of the E, I won't feel bad as I proceed to RIP INTO IT AND BEGIN TO BURY THAT CRAP OF A "DREAM CARD" FOR THIS YEAR'S WrestleMania xXx PPV....

Reigns Vs. Biggy Langston. I really don't care to see these two in a match. We've seen them countless times be tagged in during 6-Man Tag matches on Raw or SD but I just don't think they mesh well to put on a good match. Reigns doesn't currently need the IC Championship, to simply put it - he's "white hot" right now.

Jake Roberts Vs. Dean Ambrose. I grew up watching Jake "The Snake", don't get me wrong, it's soooo NICE to have seen him on Raw "Old School" a few weeks ago but in all seriousness... Do I/we really want to see the man in a legit match @ WrestleMania when that same spot could be given to up and coming young talent? Do you know WHERE it would've been the right PLACE to put Jake for one last "hurrah", WWE "creative"?!?!? IN THE 2014 ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH! But noooo, ya couldn't let that happen for whatever bloody reason. Play Jake's music, let him walk down that aisle with Revelation and all. Let him do a short-arm clothesline and a DDT and then have someone eliminate him. NOOOOOO, thats just TOO MUCH to let happen.

10-Man MitB (I'm gonna assume Ladder Match here): ........This is basically what the "creative team" said, "well, we just don't have anything for these 10 guys. I don't know what to do but somehow, someway we need to have them on the PPV. Hmmm, I GOT IT. Let's put them alllllllll together in a match...some sort of a gimmick match....a...a...A MONEY IN THE BANK MATCH! Wait a second, I thought we can only have that type of a match on the "Money in the Bank" PPV? Oh...oh....hmmmm. Ahh, the fans don't know ANYTHING, they're a bunch of morons. They can't remember what happened weeks ago. It doesn't matter. They love whatever we put in front of them!

"Battle of the Divas Match". Hmmmm, HMMMMMMM, Stephanie McMahon booked in a match against the longest reigning Divas Champion. Hmmm, I wonder, I WONDER who thought this was a good idea? It would only make sense to have AJ face Stephanie in a match. And I know, wholeheartedly, that AJ (Punk's g/f might I remind you) will do the right thing and do the job for Stephanie because "that's what's good for business". Again, I wonder who decided this should be a match...?

Batista Vs. Brock Lesnar. This match and the following affect each other.
Undertaker Vs. John Cena. *SMH REPEATEDLY* It's not the fact that Cena could have a chance to "end the streak". That doesn't bother me at all. It's the FACT that for the last several years a dream match wrestling and I'm going to assume UFC/MMA fans have been literally DROOLING at the mouth for is The Undertaker and Brock Lesnar to square off. IT IS A FACT. I mean if you would announce that one match at a PPV, the other 6 matches WOULD NOT MATTER. You could book The Khali (I refuse to call him "great") to win a "King of the Ring" Tournament on that PPV and then have Brock Vs. Taker as the Main Event and put a price tag of whatever you want. I guarantee you that it will sell! But yes, even in a "dream card", the WWE "editors" still.........STILL...STILL...... manage to completely foul this legit dream match up. P.S. - If seeing how Batista performed at the 2014 Royal Rumble was a sign of things to come, I SINCERELY hope he is working at house shows if not on Raw or SD because his ring rust is just flat out sad and the fact that he could very well be in the Main Event of WrestleMania xXx is appalling.

Attitude Battle Royal. To quote The Miz, "really?...really?....REALLY?"

Which now brings us to the quote on quote "Main Event" of this butchery of a "WrestleMania Dream Card"... To quote Lance Storm, "if I can be serious for a minute"....*grins*.
Let's take a long hard look at how ridiculous the picture looks for our "main event". I mean, most people assume you're dumb when you say you're a wrestling fan but in all seriousness WWE, you don't have to make me feel stupid and dumb me down. Trust me, you already have your meat hooks in me...I'm a life long wrestling, SORRY, I meant sports entertainment fan. It says "the fight for the WWEWHC title". lol... is there a difference between "championship" and "title"? If the acronym already implies championship then is it necessary to add title at the end? Now this I just found humorous as on the picture it says "3 men one title"...... and clearly you can see Orton is holding 2, yes count 'em TWO titles. Anyhoo, that's the least of my worries as I see SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY.....TRIPLE H IS IN THE MAIN EVENT OF WRESTLEMANIA AND IT'S FOR THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP.

.....

Really? Is that what us fans are "dreaming" to see, WWE folk? We want to see an over the hill, overrated guy who managed to leapfrog Shane into controlling the WWE and now we're forced to watch his nepotism? The New Age Outlaws are once again WWE Tag Team Champions, Kevin Nash was a surprise entrant in the Rumble (mind you he was a surprise entrant as Diesel not far back), Flair and Michaels were on the pre-show and managed to be outdone in talking by...by...BY...."HACKSAW" JIM DUGGAN. Which just goes to show how happy they were to be there. And to pile up on top of all that crap we have a returning Batista win the Royal Rumble and is now setup to main event this year's WrestleMania..

This "dream card" is a NIGHTMARE. Only in Triple H's perfect world or shall I say "dream" would his wife be booked to face the longest reigning Divas champion (mind you, she is the g/f of a certain someone who I'm sure Trips is pissed at because he wasn't overly enthused at the idea of facing him in a match and has told the E to shove it where the sun don't shine..) and Trips himself is booked in the Main Event Match for the WWEWHC Title.
