Topic: RAW is The Day After Mania (4/2)

[Niall]

So, where do they go next?

 - Will Cena just laugh off the defeat?

 - Is Jericho done, or are we getting a rematch?

 - What next for DB?

 - Will we see Brock?

[Torgo]

IIRC, hasn't there been a trend in recent years of the RAW after WM being a complete throwaway show, outside of the opening segment? 

[Leatherface]

AJ will now appear on SD/RAW each week with more and more bruises.

I am fine with this, as at least he will still be entertaining even if they don't consider him a true main event player. Maybe one day through hard work and fanfare, he can be more important in VKM's eyes than Flo-Rida.

I give the front few rows props for starting a Daniel Bryan chant during Orton/Kane, especially since Orton babbled his no-teeth lookin mouf about how more people were looking forward to his stupid resthold match with the Cartoon Man.

I think if they have Cena simply laugh off the defeat it would be a mistake.  That being said, I don't think the loss means he's been devalued or that he MUST. TURN. HEEL. either.  I assume they'll go in a mutual respect direction and possibly transition him in another direction with someone else.  Who?  I don't know.

I can't imagine face Cena ever being more interesting than he was with the Rock build up.  Where do you go from here?  Beating more cartoon characters?  If I were Vince, I'd give him a long vacation.  I mean he's worked his ass off for years now.  Give him a goddamn break.  CM Punk and company can keep the company afloat, and then he can be refreshed/rejuvenated when he returns. 

That character is as stale as 30 day old milk, dawg. 

[Chus-Kay]

we'll probably see sad cena tomorrow for sure; rock is probably there and they shake hands or some shit.  then, they could go four ways with this...

1. cena is interrupted by a heel or surprise return and this will lead into a new feud w/ cena going back to his normal smiling douchey ways.

2. cena goes heel.  very unlikely.

3. next week cena comes back and everything is back to normal.  he challenges punk or something.  yawnfest.

4. they set-up a re-match with rock.

Extreme Rules is Punk vs Cena.  Orton vs Kane is on the card as well.  As of right now at least.

Spoiler Alert.

[FATSEXY]

I hope Cena goes heel and has Eve as his valet. That would be pretty funny. The only problem I'd have is that when he finally went back face, they'd blame his entire run as a heel on Eve and her Evil Vagina Powers.

[Niall]

Spoiler Alert.

It's speculation.  I haven't seen or heard that anywhere else.  Wouldn't surprise me though.

[Zandrax]

I believe local advertising has been Punk vs. Cena.

Probably. But as recently as today, dirtsheets are still speculating on Punk vs Jericho and Cena vs Tensai.  Again, just speculation.

[bryce]

i like naill's idea of  brock, bautista, albert, heel group....

only thing is that they should be managed by benoit's coffin.

[stratknight]

John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Big Show and Sheamus vs. Kane, Mark Henry, Cody Rhodes, Daniel Bryan and Chris Jericho

Hoping for the crowd to be as hot as the Radicalz/Too Cool/Rikishi 10 man tag in Chicago.

Put Brock under the ring, for him to burst through and lay them all out, and that's money.

[Niall]

The finish of Rock vs Cena was such a good way to give Rock the win.  Cena, the cocky prick, in the middle of the match of his life, tries to mock the Rock by hitting his own move on him and gets caught and pays the price for being a dick.

Rock's way of saying "Fuck you Cena, if you're going to act like a bitch, I'll beat you for it"

This is why putting the WWE Title on Cena any time before he beats Rock is the worst idea.  You can't have a bitch who got schooled at Mania wearing the company's top title.

I think the smart money is definitely on Brock coming out during this match.  I think they probably leave it a mystery who he's targeting though.  He'll either hit nobody or hit everybody, with Cole and King left guessing as Raw goes off the air.

you are obsessed with brock under the ring.

[Niall]

Determined to be right one of these times

I say he takes out everyone.  He bursts through the ring and starts tearing throats out, then he ends the night with everyone's limbs around him, covered in blood, and then does an invisible cowboy lasso while taunting the crowd.

In my head, reading this, I imagined him being naked.  Any chance of this being the case?

[Niall]

Wearing only a sombrero.

And then somebody with some street cred, say Kavin Nash, comes out...
