Nice sell by Zoey on the set up Superkick.

I guess Rhea twerked at a live event yesterday because my stream chat is just filled with gifs of it.

 

[Lunatik]

I mean it's just this all over again:

All two, three seconds of it. Just because Naomi urged her.

All the constant theme music changes haven't done Sheamus any favors. I had zero clue who that was when his music hit.

Speaking of theme music, if they are going to change Judgement Day's theme from Alter Bridge, give the Alter Bridge theme (which is an absolute banger) to Priest as his current theme stinks and is holding him back.

I think she's done one video already, some wrestling site reported (!) about it before her NXT debut.

Must've been a slow news day.

Iyo and Lyra predictably cooking.

This probably should've been the final.

 

[Lunatik]

Holy shit! Lyra did it for Tatum!

 

[Jussi]

Whoa, Lyra won?! Nice finish.

Zelina chose viuolence:

I am not going to describe what the streamer put on during the commercial break. Let's just say I'm glad I don't have to use that site after this week...

Seth murdering Punk on the mic.

 

[Jussi]

Oh Punk went there.

 

[sansabri]

[Jussi]

would've popped if Seth had said 'and i'll bring real glass'

Fixed.

Man I thought Punk won that one

 

[Jussi]

Yeah, the Becky and Vince jabs were kind of savage.

I couldn't be less interested in CM Punk and Rollins... I can't stand Punk and while I respect Rolins and acknowledge his talent, I just am not a fan.

All sorts of wild shit has been going down at their holiday house shows the past week or so. Punk doing a run in in a towel.

I thought Punk got the better of that exchange. Some fire promos.

I went to the Intuit Dome for a college basketball game a couple days ago. Arena feels a bit more compressed compared to ones built to have an NHL rink. I wish I could attend that first Raw on Netflix there. We'll see if they do anything extra with the LED lighting at each seat.

Parking was a mess though. I'm going to laugh if a chunk of crowd is stuck in rush hour LA traffic for a 5pm local time start.

Edit: Looking at the configuration now and it looks like the entrance ramp will have "The Wall" (not the WCW one) behind which could be cool for some photos. Also seems like they overpriced the tickets and there are plenty still available.

I believe the ticket map is misleading because only recently did they make the decision to sell tickets behind the entranceway. Around 1000 tickets available with a capacity of 14,800. For context tonight’s Raw may have had 14.5k or more and is at least the third highest attended Raw in 2024 along with Chicago in March and Philly in April.
