Pumped Tiffany cashed in finally…
However, I’m nervous because of who’s lurking in the shadows.

When the Flames finally call up Solovyov, I'm going to use teh shit out of this gif
I'm not sure how red would look, but black mat with red ropes would look hot IMO
You're mistaken, Melo is HIM

I was just teasing since it's Melo's schtick.
I'd like to see him bring back Melo is Money and then have Graves shit on him for stealing his wife's saying

He needs a proper main roster feud. I'm thinking they might be waiting for Trick Wlliams to get called up. The Rumble would be the perfect place /way to start the main roster version of that feud.

God I hope not. Melo is actually talented, Trick is just a physique and a catch phrase.

Hater Of The Year again...
While I think Trick has still things he could develop in NXT, that feud worked there.

My point was more Trick ain't ready for teh call-up. Melo needs another feud like Andrade IMO. Sami would be a good choice as it doesn't hurt him if he loses a feud.

I think technically it was Naomi, but yes, I do believe they did.

Good cash in, but for me overshadowed by somebody who hasn’t been mentioned on tv in quite some time. You just know it’s coming

Triple H says that the runtime for RAW on Netflix " will be flexible ".
from fightful.com:
WWE Raw will move to Netflix on January 6, marking the first time the show has been off linear television.
Since 2012, WWE Raw has been three hours, though it was cut back to two hours during the final months of the USA Network deal.
Appearing on the SI Media podcast, Triple H was asked how long WWE Raw on Netflix would be.
"It will be flexible. It will be flexible in I don't necessarily know the time constraints of network television or cable television apply. It's a slightly different platform. Much like many episodic shows, they have the ability to do whatever the show needs to have down. If this episode needs to be an hour, great, it's an hour. If the next episode needs to be 42 minutes, it's 42 minutes. It's what makes for the best product. I'm not saying we're going to be 42 minutes, but clearly we'll deliver the product in a way that is best for Netflix and their business model and best for our storytelling," he said.
Asked if there would be an average run time for an episode, Triple H replied, "We have averages. For me, the perfect show time is somewhere in the two-and-a-half-hour range. If you had asked me years ago, the two hour shows, you get into them and you don't have the real estate on that program to get everything in there you want to get in, all the stories and characters. Sometimes, it's a good thing because it creates scarcity and opportunity for people to be more over, but sometimes there are things you want to get in there. People lose track of the fact that what we do is live. There are formats we have to stick with and constraints of commercial time. If you run a segment that is scheduled for 10 minutes and it ends up being colossal content and goes 17 minutes, you're now 17 minutes into a show and you have to find places to pull that out and still hit commercial times and crossover times, which is important for networks. All of that makes it difficult to do. I think we'll have more freedom in the format and more freedom to say...if two hours is not enough, three hours you can be in the position of 'did you need that or was it important?' I don't want to say filler because I don't want anyone to feel like they're filler. Sometimes, a three hour show, having hours that crossover, you're so constrained by that, that you're putting in the show what we call 'collapsible.' The show is heavy, we get late into an hour, something has to lose time. What is collapsible? What is not the story driving everything? What can be shrunk or can go quicker? The amount of commercial time doesn't change. It's difficult. Sometimes, three hours can feel long, and two hours is not enough. Somewhere in the middle is a sweet spot."
