Even though he's above it, Dean Ambrose looks good with the Intercontinental Championship.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Orton is playing mind games with Rollins.

 

[Slushy]

I didn't appreciate Roman Reigns treating fans in Las Vegas away from the house show like crap last month, but it was good to see him fist bumping fans tonight. A step in the right direction for him.

Edit: Heyman saying Reigns could beat Andre, Hogan, and Austin was laughable.

If you want to make fast lane watchable, the video commentary with Justin Robert Young and Brian Brushwood of the "Night Attack" podcast is entertaining with a lot fun discussion between the two.

"Justin and Brian watch the wwe fast lane ppv" on youtube

 

[Trainwreck2100]

i just think orton didn't attack rollins cause they didn't want to take away from Bryan/Reigns "don't boo reigns he's pals with bryan" ending

 

[Saint]

Every now and then I get frustrated with how bad the WWE Network package is in Canada--you need a Rogers cable package (minimum $50 a month), and then the network is $12 on top of that. Cable is crap, so naturally I do not have it (Netflix, thank you very much), so basically they're asking me to pay $62+ a month for WWE content, which I am not willing to do.

So, as I said, it sometimes becomes frustrating. However, there is an easy cure for my frustration: I read the latest recaps, see that they are burying Daniel Bryan over and over, and then realize I'm not missing much.

- We haven’t heard reaction to last night’s Goldust vs. Stardust match at WWE Fastlane but going into the pay-per-view, the decision to do the match was seen as rushed and was met with criticism within WWE.

- Vince McMahon is said to be back on his tag team kick once again. This is part of the reason why The Prime Time Players are being reunited and why Sin Cara and Kalisto were brought to the main roster together.

It will be interesting to see if they do a multi-team match at WrestleMania 31 for Cesaro and Tyson Kidd’s WWE Tag Team Titles. While the tag division is gaining some teams, it’s worth noting that they are also losing a team as The Miz and Damien Sandow are expected to work a singles match at WrestleMania.

Glad to see public demand for the women not to be treated like jokes

 

[Hunter Rider]

Sounds like another dreadful Raw, from the Diva disrespect to Bryan being castrated in a sad attempt to get Vince's live action Gi Joe toy over as the new "face of the WWE" which these days is the equivalent of being the hemorrhoid cream ad guy.

 

[PyroChamber]

What happened with the Divas this time?

26 second match

Maybe the crappy match tonight can be the equivalent of Sheamus/Bryan at WM.

 

[zeroapoc]

26 second match

And they had to wait in the ring while the Sting montage played.

Lulz...

WWE did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BuzzFeed.

- Reigns is improving on the mic. I'll give him that.

- Loved Wyatt talking to Undertaker's casket.

- Stardust is terrifc at selling the "Cody" chants!

- Holy sh**! Jack Swagger won for a change!

- I laughed when the fans cheered when Cena admitted defeat.

- The Sting promo video was great to introduce him to a new generation of fans or anybody who's been living under a rock.

- Happy for The Bushwhackers going in The Hall Of Fame this year. I know purist old school wrestling fans hate McMahon for turning The Sheepherders into a comedy tag team, but ironically, their WWF tenure is what they're most remembered for. They had great charisma and were a perfect fit for the World Wrestling Federation days. I forgot how many funny segments they were in!

I think they should keep Miz and Mizdow as a team heading into WM. Have Miz eat the pin in the multi-team tag title match. Once the winners (hopefully Cesaro and Kidd) are done celebrating, the ring clears and Miz starts berating Mizdow for not making the save. Mizdow looks like he's going to take the punishment, but then knocks Miz on his ass, going solo.

Sandow gets a WM moment.

 

[runawayboulder]

What happened with the Divas this time?

It totally went down like this:

Paige entrance

Commercial

Sting video Promo (while Paige was still in the ring for nearly 10 min. At some point Emma joined her)

Bellas entrance

Bell rings. Brie knocks Paige off the apron, Emma goes to check on her. Brie jumps her from behind, kick to stomach, X-Factor faceplant, 1-2-3 literally 15 seconds after the bell rang.

It was a complete and utter joke. I'm not big on stuff trending but I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one that was annoyed at what they did.

 

[Darkness Falls]

the diva match was a joke...... even impact with all its flaws gives their female wrestlers the time to shine

it's baffling to me how wwe can give us **** like this on the main shows when the same company gives us quality diva matches on nxt

It's pretty simple to understand. Vince is in control of the main roster and HHH is in control over the NXT roster.

We all like to think that Triple H has more power over the main product than he actually does. His podcast interview with Austin was very telling. He's knows there's problems with the main brand and has ideas on where to start fixing them but was careful to tip toe around things and remind everyone that it all ultimately ends with Vince.

Vince has to go, that's all there is to it. Either his wife convinces him to slow down and take a lesser role or the board of investors kicks him out when things get worse financially. It's all going to come to a head eventually. The complaints from talent are getting more frequent and the fans impatience is growing.

 

[runawayboulder]

Damn, Cody engaged IDGAF mode with this promo

[YT]e3T0YFtlW_U[/YT]

 

[Hunter Rider]

Great promo from Cody.

 

[OctaviusINC]

To be honest I wasn't even paying enough attention to Raw is take note of the Divas getting shanked. But I did find it humorous when Cole called Orton the "face of the WWE" and calling that Sting and Triple H match something that we've all been waiting for and thought we'd never see. Also the verbal BJ Roman Reigns got was interesting. I don't mind Reigns at all but I swear WWE trying to make me hate him. And Curtis Axel, my god man, even when they give him something to do he is just lame as hell that guy. As interesting as a pair of white socks. I got to start watching on mute.

 

[SuperBatman]

That was a Interesting Promo from Cody

 

[Lobo]

Cody's promo

 

[punishermax]

With every idiotic decision that was made last night on Raw I believe the worst decision was having Roman Reigns smile like an imbecile when Bryan tagged himself in.

Is Reigns not supposed to be an ass kicker who takes crap from nobody? Then why in the hell is he smiling!? He should be pissed right the hell off that Bryan took the win from him.

Reigns and management, I feel, do not have a grasp of who the Roman character is. What is his gimmick? They don't know and that (among other things) is halting his ascension to the top.
