Did this girl debut on RAW? Or is her NXT hype just spreading like wildfire?

I find this girl completely bewildering and hope she has a long, illustrious career.

She's been in the crowd on Raw with her hashtag sign the last couple of weeks.

Thanks you guys for doing all these awesome gifs, a quick question about that Bryan chap. What's huis stick and why does it make him popular? Is he the new Rock or something?

Basically, he's the underdog everyman. He's a genuinely nice dude with a unique look, a lot of charisma and is arguably the best in-ring wrestler in the world or certainly was until very, very recently. On top of that, he's got a catchphrase/word that's easy to chant and he's rightly seen as unfairly overlooked or underrated by management.

In short, he's Mick Foley 2k14.

I think he's just selling well. This wasn't long into Austin using the move, so putting it over like death is a good idea.

Well, a suplex bump on the floor, which I sorta get, but still, if you're not going to do the spot properly, DON'T DO IT. Especially not with Wrestling Superstar Mike Jones.

Nah it was just his foot that exploded, I mean he's been ready for months, but they wouldn't let him return. Hell they should have replaced RVD's return with Evan's, think of the pop for that.

gently caress it, put him with RVD as a tag team. Covers for Rob being a little older, gives the younger dude the rub. (Plus, wasn't Bourne one of the group that got busted for synthetic pot?)

The last thing Bourne probably needs is being in constant contact with a guy who heavily preaches the benefits of marijuana.

Can I ask and I expect I know the answer, but was the ref taking that bump an excuse for him not to see Bully putting that dude through the table (I'm guessing it's a Tables match)?

Yes, he was clearly supposed to get hit by the heel on the way up for the powerbomb. The finish was Dixie Carter in drag pushing Bubba off the stage and through a table.

I know nothing of the characters but I always assumed it would be the little blonde dude who would turn first.

Has it been explained yet?

Nope, him turning was the cliffhanger, essentially. And Ambrose is the more natural bad guy of the trio, but WWE seem to be least high on him, considering Rollins has been getting a lot of mic time and constantly gets to be the one who gets offence on Triple H, and the booking of Reigns as a nigh-unstoppable warrior.

There was some random Big Show run-in a few years back, after Show had had one of his months long breaks, and you've just got this 7 foot giant barreling down the ramp at full tilt, and it was the most terrifying thing. Like, Paul Wight was going to murder whoever was at the end of this ramp, and there was literally no way to stop him.
