Looks like she could have seriously hurt the rest of those Barbies, and that would be entertaining as hell to watch.


I believe she recently expressed an interest in returning to WWE, but she's losing some weight and said something about re-inventing herself

She needs to feud with AJ. She's the most talented woman on the roster right now. Her and Awesome Kong/Karma/whatever we call her now could make some magic if WWE let them. Though if Kong comes back as a heel I'd love to see her destroy the Bellas, like she promised to do when she left WWE.

I'm starting to think it's impossible for this company to maintain momentum. That hot streak WWE was on is over. Hell in a Cell sucked, and we just started off Raw with the usual Super Cena bullshit. Damien Sandow is no longer Mr Money in the Bank and he's not the champ either.

Stupid Del Rio promo. He says Cena has a target on his arm and he's going to work the arm over and beat him in his rematch. I'm thinking, "yeah, cause that really worked for you on Sunday and really worked for Sandow earlier this evening you idiot"

He's Super Cena, injuries don't effect him. Didn't you get the memo moron? You couldn't come up with a more believable reason to make us think you can beat him?

Course, should I be mad at Del Rio? Or mad at Cena for no selling everything that people do to him? Seriously, how the HELL did he not lose to Damien Sandow after the brutal beating his arm has taken over the past two nights?

WWE and Cena back to their old tricks :roll:

That was one of the worst Raws ever. Nothing on this show made any sense.

This is why I stopped watching wrestling...
it simply sucks and the WWE simply doesn't care. I am really not sure how they are making more money than ever before... I mean when you look at stuff from '98 and come back to look at 2013's PPVs... that is like watching The Godfather then watching White House Down :lol:

What frustrates me is that they don't pay off anything anymore. Kane comes back after being beaten and kidnapped by the Wyatt family, and there is no mention of what happened in that time, how he got away, or anything. He just throws a few punches at them at the PPV and that's the end of that story. Lame. Then he joins up with Stephanie for no apparent reason whatsoever.

Bryan chases after the title for months and instead of giving us that big moment when he wins it, he gets shoved down to the midcard with Punk in an out of nowhere Wyatt family feud.

We wait months and months for them to finally have Sandow cash in, and he does against a one armed Cena and loses. A one armed Cena who had his returning from surgery arm destroyed by Del Rio the night before and then done further damage to that night by Sandow's briefcase. Does Sandow need to drive a mach truck over Cena to pin him?

Then, after establishing Cody/Gold Dust as a top tier team that can take out The Shield, they get jobbed out to a joke team in The Real Americans who just lost to Los Matadores the night before.

Also, how the hell did Bryan versus Triple H/Orton somehow morph into Big Show versus Triple H/Orton? What the hell? Show was supposed to be the sidekick in this story, not the main attraction

I just wonder what is the point of getting invested in any story they tell when everything they do is so random. With this week's Hell in a Cell and Monday Night Raw they took everything they've been building up over the past few months and just flushed it all down the toilet. Even the end of the Punk/Heymen feud was lame as Paul got off pretty light considering the psychotic things Punk has promised to do to him for months now

Vince, Triple H, Stephanie and the entire creative team need to sit down and watch the whole series of Breaking Bad and learn how to actually pay off your damn stories and follow some semblance of continuity. You can't just do random shit all the time

This is the last time I ever give WWE the benefit of the doubt. It seemed like they were getting their shit together after Payback, and they are back to being same old shitty WWE again. The company that pisses away every opportunity they get and drops the ball every single time. They could EASILY be back at Attitude Era success and popularity again if they actually gave a shit.

Damn, Damien Sandow got buried, like 6 feet under. That was tough to watch.

Super-Cena is back. Looks like we're going back to WWE mediocrity again.

Man, it was nice while it lasted, though, wasn't it?
