What's Bring It To The Table?
Was Raw any good? Rumble build so I would imagine they're trying.
Naw, more of the same crap. "Highlights":
-Foley got a haircut. Uh...yay?
-Titus O'Neil randomly interrupts the New Day and tries to join them, but cuts a heel promo on them while doing so. Leads to a match with Xavier, who goes over.
-Bayley predictably beat Nia Jax in a number one contenders' match for the womens' title. Will face Charlotte at the Rumble.
Unless I missed something, there was nothing on the Rumble until the very, very end of the show-
The final segment was the "Kevin Owens Show" with special guest Goldberg. Hilariously, there was a dude standing in the ring with a "Kevin Owens Show" t-shirt and a sign covering his entire face, like a human set piece.
Owens then goes and hypes up one of the "biggest stars of the attitude era...." and introduces Jericho, who is sitting next to him. This is gold.
And then Goldberg comes out and it's
. Before anything can happen, Paul Heyman interrupts and says Brock Lesnar will be in the Rumble. Jericho also says he will be in (and teases feuding with Owens). Roman Reigns comes out and says some shit. Then Braun Stroman comes out and Goldberg and Reigns both spear him.
I forget what happened to Roman, but the at the end the ring was cleared except for Goldberg, who posed.
Next week looks like the real Rumble hype is starting, with Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker both scheduled for the show. Not sure what Taker is doing there when he's supposed to be a Smackdown guy.
Speaking of which, SD beat RAW in the ratings last week. They barely touched on this and just had Stephanie say something like "we've got to work to beat SD and stay on top!" and that was that. This brand split sucks so bad. Possibly worse than the last time they did it.
