[*]Skimmed through Raw last night as usual.. I really like opening segments like the one last night. Multiple guys all interrupting each other. I really like Daniel Bryan as a character and a talent. He's great.

[*]Thought it was funny Dean Ambrose mocked the crowd by clapping and they went along with him. Also Dean wiped his hands or something after the match and dropped out of the ring. The guy gets it. He does all the little mannerisms.

[*]Kind of good to see the Shield and Usos being put on the same level. It's not that Shield is bad, it's just that they need to break up. Dean is far too good to be stuck in a midcard stable.

[*]Still think the DB/Kane/Orton stuff needs to end. Again (like the Shield) it's not bad, its just that it's time.

[*]Loved the Mark Henry promo. I like this variation of his character. Him teasing the belt attack at the end of the show, but then just walking off was great - different than WWE heels have been booked for a while.

[*]Bray Wyatt. Love that they ended the show focusing on him. I hope he can differentiate himself from Ambrose though - both have that sort of crazy quality and both are somewhat new to the roster.

I have a bad feeling that they are going to cannibalise the shield in an attempt to get the Wyatt family over,

Unless just Bray is going to wrestle and Luke and Erick will just stand around...like Doc and Knux over in Tna, which I hope not.

But who do you have a tag team of monster heels fued with?

Uso's
A returning Tyson Kidd and Gabriel
A face Shield?
A random stuck together midcard face team?
(Miz, Christian, RVD, Jericho, Kofi, Kane, ...)

Idk I'm excited but I'm concerned

I'd like the Wyatts to debut as tweeners, taking out the Shield but also having heel tendencies. Not full face, not full heel.. just.. crazy, you know?

Eventually they'd decend into full heel mode where X face team would eventually win - I'd say Kings of Wrestling if Cesaro hadn't just gotten Colter.

Imaginary timeline for this:

Wyatts debut Monday. Get squash match at MitB against 3MB or some shit - not just a normal squash though. Have them really torture 3MB and refuse to pin them even though a victory is clear. Stuff like that.

Some match at Summerslam. I'd love a TLC 3-way between the Usos, Shield, and Wyatts. Shield retain when the Usos do something stupid. In the coming weeks the Wyatts blame the Usos and get a second shot at Night of Champions, where they win.

Have them reign for a while and have KoW debut at Survivor Series or something. This doesn't even account for what Bray will be doing, since I assume he'll be doing singles stuff while Luke/Erick do tag.

Anyway, enough fantasy booking.

So who do you gentlemen think will win the whc Mitb?

I'm thinking either Cesaro or face turn Rhodes

Leaning towards Cesaro because unless a Heel Orton wins the WWE Mitb.

2 Face contract holders just seems wasted to me...

Wyatt family to debut tomorrow, hopefully they have a match

Got a feeling Zack Ryder is gonna get STO'd straight to hell

Cesaro or Sandow for me.

I think Cesaro wins. I hope Sandow does though.

Ambrose would be good too.

I personally have this horrible feeling Fandango will win...

And they half a$$ push a Cesaro & Swagger team, Cesaro becomes Ziggler 2.0 just waiting for a break...

I was just wondering, does anyone here a Barret fan?

Idk I just view him as very boring, but that might just be a booking issue

I don't think anybody cares about Barrett.

Raw was pretty good, I thought. Sheamus and Bryan was a hell of a match, and the Wyatt introduction (even if some idiots thought they were clever by shouting Husky Harris) was done well.

Wonder if Kane is gonna be their first convert.

Mitb Card

Usos vs Shield

Miz vs (C)Curtis

Kaitlyn vs (C)AJ

Ziggler vs (C)Del Rio

Whc Mitb Cesaro

WWE Championship Mitb Bryan

Ryback vs Jericho

Henry vs (C)Cena
------------------------------

Prediction time

My predicted winners in bold
D-Bry will cash in after Cena/Henry leading to

(C)Bryan vs Cena @ Summer Slam

All right, mine:

Mitb Card

Usos vs Shield - Shield (Usos are meh)

Miz vs (C)Curtis - Axel (His push requires it, even if I want the Miz to win)

Kaitlyn vs (C)AJ - Kaitlyn (Big E helps her)

Ziggler vs (C)Del Rio - Ziggler (with possible cash-in by MITB winner)

Whc Mitb - Sandow

WWE Championship Mitb - Bryan

Ryback vs Jericho - Ryback

Henry vs (C)Cena - Henry

**** YEAH!

Damn, missed some fun.

Loved Raw last night though. The entire show was great. Orton/Fandango, Ziggler/Del Rio, RVD/Jericho were all great and Naomi really impressed me as well.

Loved the Wyatt Family promo, and I loved the ending segment with Daniel Bryan. The Punk/Heyman stuff was amazing.

Two things: Sandow absolutely should have gotten to cut a promo before his match, but his little "AND STILL MR. MONEY IN THE BANK" thing post match was good. The Cody feud is going to be amazing because it really feels personal - more so than the Punk/Heyman one in some ways.

Second thing: Shield really need to break up. Ambrose is ready for bigger things and the beatdowns are just getting old. They continue to put on GREAT matches, but something needs to happen storyline-wise other than WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS BELIEVE IN THE SHIELD HOUNDS OF JUSTICE.

probably leading to the shield being fed to the wyatts and Rollins going face

I actually felt bad for Cena when he announced you-know-who as his opponent for Summerslam. He be jealous, and with good reason.

I hope they don't force the bellas into it, just because of that new Divas show.

I wouldn't mind a segment or two, but don't overkill it

For those who don't know

Daniel Bryan has been dating Brie Bella for a while now, and Nikki and Cena have been dating for a few months now irl...

Yeah, their Christmas pics are up online and everything. I think they will be involved after the hint that Michael Cole dropped on Raw.

The Bellas both accompanied DB back in 2010 before Daniel Bryan "chose" Gail Kim over them - I wonder if that'll be mentioned.

The Hardy Boys are the new Tag Team Champs.

It'd be pretty awesome (and also funny) if Alex Wright came back in his "Das Wunderkind" gimmick to feud with Fandango.
