RAW 25 was a FLOP....and it didn't have to be

[jadillac]

from the jump....Austin didn't even get to say anything on the mic? Nothing? Really? He couldn't even say "Awwww hell yeahhhhh!!!" after he stunned Vince and Shane ????

Bruce Prichard, arguably the hottest/most entertaining person in wrestling right now, was relegated to a group vignette and a few lines. Brother Love wasn't even really a staple of RAW. So they clearly brought him back due to his new found fame, but didn't let him be himself.

Rock couldnt find 5 mins to record a message via satellite? Hell, he posts videos all day on his Instagram....he couldnt do a video himself and have WWE show it?

Batista couldn't do something similar?

Instead we got MVP, Boogeyman, Dibiase, etc?

I think that speaks to how far WWE has fallen, regardless of how much they try to make you think otherwise.

Yes it did have to be a flop
Because it doesn’t matter if it wasn’t yall still going to watch

of course everyone watched because it was supposed to be a HUGE show.....the fact that it fell flat with probably more eyes on it than ususal, is even worse.

Honestly, WWE hyped Raw 1000 WAY better than Raw 25. The only thing that caught my attention was the fact that it was going to be hosted at the Manhattan Center, but they ended up doing the two show shyt which really killed the hype for me because I knew it wasn't going to be good at all. Thankfully, I was right

Austin didn't need to talk because everyone wanted to see Triple H and his drug addict buddies reunite for the 10th time in 5 years!

Besides WM 2, when was the last time they did the double show bull$hit?

 

[MenacingMonk]

It killed my high, but more importantly, it wasted my time.

It reminded me why I stopped watching weekly.

Exactly. It didn't work the first time, why do it again?

Push the "But you're still gonna watch!" narrative when the show will go right back to low ratings and tarped off sections next week, brehs.

i think the show would have been MUCH better if they did the whole thing at MC, that crowd started out hyped and the venue was perfect for a nostalgia show

dudes was chanting holy shyt at Taker's entrance

it's like a car wreck, we know it's probably gonna be bad but we still gotta watch to see what happens

 

[Da_Eggman]

I remember raw 10 I believe in 2003 was a huge bust

Crazy 15 years and nothing has changed

It felt like it was thrown togethere at the last minute but they been hyping it up for like a year

Boogeyman was always on smackdoen I believe


Dx has reunited like 500 times

Rather seen HBk get his own moment instead of being hhh lapdog

Austin should of did in the mic with miz or spare with something on the mic instead of stunning Vince for the 10000000 time

Would of done something with all the former GMs and kurt throughout the night maybe giving him ideas or critiquing him etc....I'm sure it would of been funny

Undertaker looked horrible and sounded horrible and now we get to see another horrible match of his

they ended up getting its best ratings in years and I'm betting it ends up hurting them cuz fans tuned in and now thinking last time I give this shyt a chance

Peep show? I like Christian but that was never over to begin with

The show's audience has been dwindling for like the last 5 years and people still do the "But you'll still watch!" shyt.

This was the first ep I watched in full in quite a while. i barely follow WWE these days.
