“Looks pretty hard to me”-Carlito😂😂😂😂 honestly made me spit out my water when I heard that
So you had to hawk tuah your drink😂😂😂😂…ok I’ll see my way out
@@joshhorne4225😂😂😂
@@joshhorne4225 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Same here... I almost choked on my coffee.🤣🤣🤣
Pause!! 😭😭😭💀
When Jey did the one "YEET" and dipped, I died laughing
R.I.P.
Jey isn’t a fool. He doesn’t need to be in a feud with a bunch of loonies.
He understands, he said what he said about Bray and the fireflies and don't want any issues lol.
Ottawa Police were getting reports all night of a half dressed guy running through the streets yelling "Sicks Yeet!"😂😂
He'll be next if he keeps clownin Wyatt sicks, theyll give him a box
the THIS IS MY BRUTALITY pop was insane 🤩
I disagree that Damien going back on the gentleman's agreement is teaching people that stipulations don't matter. I think it's more showing that you don't have to hold to an agreement that was unfairly concluded, because keeping your word no matter what happens to you turns you into a walking mat.
I agree 100%
The reason Damien said that is for himself, he wanted to prove he could beat Seth with no help.
@xamonttofficia yes
Welp.. it happened find something new to bit** about..
Or he wants to beat seth again some time down the line but in clean fashion, it’s almost like seth lost because of punk and drew. Senior campeón wants to beat his opposition cleanly and in dominant fashion.
Carlito was the MVP of Raw with one line 😆 but JD and Finn peaking their heads in like cartoon characters was amazing 🤣
Watching Bron Breaker do the childhood "what's over there" made me cackle lol
He's this generations Goldberg. And that's not a compliment
the dude who yelled "Chad behind you!" 🤣🤣
Carlito and the "it looks hard to me" line, was pure goofy wrestling gold
Bro..
When Carlito Hitt'em with the "Now THAT'S............ cool?????" because of the obvious group tension..
That buckled me.. and then the "Looks hard to me".. That might be the "Hidden Gem" Segment of the year. LMAO
Dom on the couch 😂😂
Props for Kayden Carter and Katana Chance for saving Kairi Saine’s life by getting underneath her. Love Kairi and the risk taking, but that trip on the top rope could have went horribly horribly wrong.
Underrated
Priest dropped the stipulation with Rollins because he knew that Punk screwed Seth. It was a sign of respect since neither of them got the 1 on 1 fight that they both wanted. Priest just wants one world title match without outside interference to see if he is truly the world champ or not.
NGL, I bust a gut everytime Simon refers to "Dom and his moustache" 😂😂
If Truth does have a match with Cena, I want Truth to give John a token to remember him before the bell rings.
That token? A signed picture of John Cena that Truth “has had since he was a kid.”
Being there live for Rheas return was nuts
Damian’s whole thing is he wants to prove himself as champ. You can’t ignore what happened after the Ref and Drew and Punk helped him retain. They didn’t just say “forget the stipulation” just cause, it’s a very explicit reason that pushes Damian in the babyface direction
Carlito in the Judgment Day has been cool.
" it's like when someone says they're not hungry and then you ask what they want to do and they say 'I wanna go to McDonalds" ~Simon Miller.... " Hey I feel attacked" ~ My 9yr old son, Shelby.... and Simon's right it is frustrating.
😂
Lyra Valkyria is gonna be a huge star alongside Tiffany Stratton. They've both been booked perfectly so far on the main roster.
Rhea vs Liv in a Ladder Match for the custody of Dominik with Rey Mysterio as the guest referee😅
Carlito made me laugh HARD
Love seeing Bo shine
Sometimes you just have to BOlieve.
Been waiting for this all morning. I love Ups & Downs in the first place, but I especially love it after a great episode
Digging the idea of using Shayna, Sonya & Zoey as a female shield type of team
Mami getting Stone Cold level pops in 2024
I think Damien pulling the gentleman's agreement back is a solid move for Priest. The other half of the stipulation was that there was to be no interference. And I can see them holding to it if it is just Drew comes running out with a MITB, But when Punk came in to be the arbiter of everybody else's fun like some sort of over zealous straight edger. That made it an issue.
I will probably cry if Big E returns to the ring. He’s the biggest Positive Pete of them all
Been waiting for this all morning. I love Ups & Downs in the first place, but I especially love it after a great episode!
I just recently started watching the ups/downs videos, and i gotta give you your roses brotha. Its just genuine fun. You get an up! Thx for the content, keep it up :)
Bo appearing in Pierce's office? Golden up!
Simon give yourself a Golden Up and keep smashing it. Can't wait for your match with Danhausen
Carlito is just the best part of the judgement day for me now😂
Jey uso leaving the ring way he did after match was so funny😂😂😂
This review better have some tendies, or some nuggies.
When Balor and JD popped there heads around the wall, I just thought of Simon having a grand old time watching it. GWFL
Lol
Mami is home
RIP Dominick Mysterio 😂
The Finn Balor/JD looking past the wall "Scooby-Doo style" is the best thing in wrestling.
Dom thought immediately *ROUAT ROUH"
I loved this episode of Raw. Again 3 weeks in a row and they've been on fire.
I love Carlito so much, so happy since he's been back 😂
the Liv and Domink couch segment was legit one of my favourites ever. it's the kind of thing one would expect from the Attitude Era, I seriously laughed out loud
Man this is one of the best post-PLE Raws in recent memory.
❤ for the Parliament Hill backdrop
R- Truth steals Tiffy's MIB case and cashes it in on ................. John Cena!
Simon Miller u are the greatest u get the GOLDEN UP
The best of the best, Mr. Simon Miller
This Raw was awesome cm Punk cut a impressive promo along with Rollins The Wyatt sicks continue to have awesome segments plus wonder what Bo had to talk to Pearce about then Mami returning was incredible it's gonna be fun now this rivalry is gonna be on a whole new level
The video showing the close up of Rowan having Harper/Brodie's skull mask on the back of his Rabbit head when Bo said the line about "too much loss" got to me a little...
These returns and/or debuts we get after each PLE makes them feel so much bigger now!
Tom's mustache must be named Nick 😂😂
Dom isn’t working with Liv it’s Finn
I think so as well......which will lead to them screwing Dom over (maybe Rhea as well) leading to both becoming babyfaces.......just my opinion.
In my opinion I think this is going to end with Judgement Day turning on Priest & Ripley with Dom having to choose a side. Finn has been butting heads with Priest & both he & JD stuck up for Liv helping them win the tag titles. They will kick Priest & Ripley out & add Liv to their group. Bet.
If CM Punks character was someone you knew...you wouldn't like them.
loved the dance of joy simon never fails to make me smile
The comedy on last night's RAW was freaking great. Also, I want to see Ilja vs. Bron vs. Sami.
Also, with how the story is going, any chance we get the return of Ups and Downs for NXT? That or at least the PLEs for NXT.
I'm still waiting for the line "I didn't screw Drew, Drew screwed Drew, I have no sympathy for Drew McIntyre"
Simon makes me laugh 🤣
I love how we went from Adam Pearce talking about how much they upped the security to immediately finding out Bo Dallas has snuck in and was waiting in his own office.
Did anyone notice Rhea wasn't wearing judgement Day colors
All I know is that there was a camel sighting in the main event……golden up ⬆️
Soooo many storylines in one show, I'm loving it!
The Judgement Day really missed an "All Rise" pun as well.
I was there live and I've been going to WWE shows on Ottawa since 2004... This was the most vocal and excited crowd I've ever seen at an Ottawa WWE event. The shows HOT right now.
RHEAS BACK!! Carlito, Braun, just a great show!! Thanks Simon, also, please bring back AEW Collision ups and downs please.
Thank you Simon love ups n downs
Dom “It wasn’t me” Shaggy vibes
Was a great show this week for RAW, but so happy to see Sonya Deville return and seeing her teamed with Shayna and Zoey is so interesting.
I have no idea why Simon talking about Dom's moustache as if it's a separate person makes me laugh every time, but it does.
They should make Seth the special guest ref reminiscent of HBK and Undertaker Vs Bret Hart
I would love something like that. They don’t do enough “special ref’s” anymore.
Good afternoon, Simon!
Rhea/Dom/Liv is that Dateline story where someone eventually ends up on trial for murder.
If you don’t get the throwing of the stipulation of the match idk how your brain works people. The agreement was for them in a 1 on 1 match, not 3/4 of the way Drew Cashes in and CM Punk beats him pillar to post and Damien pinning Drew. The agreement was thrown out the moment Drew cashed in, what about that doesn’t make sense?
I'm also hoping that Damien Priest enjoys the rest of his reign as champion. I'm pretty sure just about everyone is thinking Gunther is going be the next champ when SummerSlam is over.
0:27 Simon on 0.5% playback speed is hilarious and sounds like a drunk wasted crazy uncle 😂🤣😆😂🤣
Short bus comment if I ever saw one..
The thing is, Dom has been legitimately trying to fix the problem and get rid of Liv. And the moment he gave in to temptation, Mami's home. I actually feel for the guy
Facts. I don't like how some people are actively making it seem like he was messing around with Liv. He did try to deny her at first. Liv was just very convincing. And honestly, I like the idea of Liv and Dom together. Him and Rhea never felt like one to me. If anything she just felt like the mom of the group.
6:09 Jey yetted away Simon
I almost think the 2 downs was too harsh - this was the most fun I've had watching RAW in years. The matches were good, the angles were good, the humour was good (which could rarely be said when Vince was around), it wasn't perfect but I cant remember the last RAW that was this good.
So are we to believe in Kayfabe that Reah was injured and Dom never contacted her the whole time 😂
They’re slowly getting us ready for the Netflix era.
So many cool stories. Favorite telenovela out there for sure.
Punk vs Seth promo is blurring the line and grade A++ stuff. Man those two are great af.
Their agreement was not an official stipulation, just an understanding between each other. They can do whatever they want since it’s between them.
Raw feels incomplete till I watch ups and downs...I don't even agree with Simon most of the time...I just like to see some who likes wrestling as much as I do
Can't wait for the custody of Dom ladder match
Best thing to watch on my lunch break in work 😂, Simon you legend keep it up these are the highlight of my weeks 😊
If it wasn't for Mami, this RAW would have got a down from me. The Priest/Rollins thing annoyed me so much!
I got to call out the sell of the chair throw from Dragonov he seemed to be convulsing on the floor. It was one of the most real sell I have seen
Just another day at the office for Dragunov😄
He also split his shin open hardway; I can't describe how painful that is...
Hope we get a Dom custody match 2.0 with Liv and Rhea.
As someone who was at this show in person...awesome compared to the last couple i have gone to.
SIMON IS THE BEST, SIMON NUMBER ONE 👏👏
I have a video of that amazing pop! Was there and it was so amazing. This was my fiancées first event ! SHE ACTUALLY LIKED IT 🎉
Hey Simon, I personally feel like Seth is getting another shot at the belt to
1. make up for the pin mishap at MITB without actually addressing it.
2. downplay a potential (although I would use the word: inevitable) Gunther victory at Summer Slam.
Morgan pulling a 2K move with that chair was not on my bingo card
Raw is firing on all cylinders pretty much whole show is great every week now
WWE Rematch Counter: 99 (No Rematches)
Please give us Rhea vs Liv and fighting for custody of Dominick Mysterio with Rey Mysterio joining commentary at Summerslam. (Let Rey bury his own son.)
Raw was good yesterday 👏👏💯
Dom and Liv had the "....and at that moment they knew they fucked up" look when Mami came out
I just hope that whatever opponents John Cena faces in 2025 for his retirement run that they are all good worthy opponents. CM Punk will be a good one. Randy Orton too. Maybe a few of the younger guys to kind of help boost them. Austin Theory is one I'd like to see again. I'll agree with you Simon that one of his opponents should be R Truth.
Now that rhea is back, we need the copy and paste of when Eddie was trying to win back Chyna
I would give a golden up if Cole said “WHY do you keep giving me these? I’M NOT BLOCKBUSTER”
Why would he say such a shit joke?
"Hot Wrestlemania"!!! 😂😂😂😂
How big do you think the pop for BigE would be?
I literally just got back from McDonald's 😂
