🔴 RAW Thread 12/16/19: Long Rumbling Road

[Deleted]

I might watch tonight? I dunno. Really can't claim to be all that interested in... pretty much anything this show has going on (does it even have anything going on besides Owens / Rollins, actually?) but I don't have anything better going on and maybe they might actually feel like trying with the Rumble coming.

The good news is, show will probably be only five hours, because they will blast through the taped Raw at a breakneck speed.

Any show that's a 'double-taping' should really be scheduled for a Pacific time zone city. Because, you know, regular live Raws end on 8 PM local time, so any second taping would still send fans home at a reasonable time (well before 11 PM local time even, since they don't need to worry about exact commercial times during pre-tapings). As it stands, they're in Iowa tonight, in the Central time zone. I hope they structure the night well for the crowd's sake.

I went to a double taping of Raw in 2011. Thankfully, Vegas is on Pacific Time, so we were out at around 9:30 PDT. But they just breezed through all the matches with almost no break in between segments. There were also no pre-tapes, even when they probably could have used the one to explain why Sgt. Slaughter was wrestling a match on the show.

I may miss the first part, since mom and I are finishing Christmas shopping tonight.

Pft, as if Aleister's leaving his room for the rest of the year.

I think I might watch tonight. Let's see if I end up regretting that.

Going to suck to be the rest of you in the live thread!

[edgestar]

Definitely going to miss at least the first half hour. We're still out, and my mom is finding other stuff to do, lol.

Hopefully AJ vs. Orton will at least be better than their WM match.

Seth didn't sell out, he bought in! Again.

[DSR]

Off from both of my jobs tonight, so I'll check this out.

BUT I HAVE OPTIONS! Just so ya know.

Honestly I'm wondering how chaotic this is gonna be having two shows in the same night...

I had forgotten who Rollins was feuding with until just now.

[Deleted]

Alright, I'm here. If this doesn't hook me early I'm switching to Law & Order.

Also I still don't understand why Seth was hiding it was him then just revealed it was him with no prompting.

Give Seth some good material and he knocks it out of the park on the mic. Go figure.

Hopefully the crowd won't get blinded either this time.

We better get some IIconics tonight if both of us are watching!

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

Shut up Seth.

I didn't know Dakota Kai was in Skillet.

Raw theme should be “Be A Man”

I find it fascinating that Raw and SmackDown somehow simultaneously both feel like the B-show.
