The Taz Show Recap – RAW Analysis, Angle & Jordan Storyline Feels Strange, Tweaking Cass As A Heel, More!

Block 1:

Taz opens today’s show speaking about last night’s episode of RAW.

Taz thinks the progression of this Kurt Angle/Jason Jordan storyline is getting a little strange. The storyline as a whole doesn’t bother him, but he way Angle and Jordan are performing is really weird right now. Taz thinks there’s another part of this story that hasn’t been revealed yet, and a part of him thought Jordan was actually going to turn heel during his debut RAW match last night.

Taz also thinks that WWE should change up Jordan’s ring gear. He doesn’t think Jordan should be using the red, white and blue colours for his entrance or for his ring gear. Instead, he should use gold as his primary colour, so there’ll still be a connection to Angle while he establishes his own brand as well.

A listener calls into the show and asks Taz how he’d fantasy book a Shield reunion. Taz says he wouldn’t book a Shield reunion at all, and he wishes WWE would stop teasing it. He wouldn’t have even had Ambrose and Rollins team up last night, because he doesn’t see a reason to reunite those three men. They’ve all gone out on their own and have become singles stars, so there’s no reason to reunite them right now.

Another listener calls into the show and talks about how good Roman Reigns is at selling, especially for a big man. Taz agrees entirely and says that selling is just another thing that Reigns does not get enough credit for.

The Taz Show Recap – Bringing Actors into WWE, Lesnar Returning to RAW Tonight, Losing is Bray Wyatt’s Job, More!

Blocks 1 & 2:

A listener calls into the show and informs that he recently watched an episode of Lucha Underground and was fascinated by Dario Cueto’s performance. Taz agrees and points out that the actor who portray’s Cueto on Lucha Underground never worked in the wrestling business before, rather he’s an actor who was brought in to play that role.

The caller also asks Taz if he thinks WWE would ever go down the same road, by bringing in actors to play authority figures or managers on WWE programming. Taz doesn’t think WWE would do this because the wrestling business is somewhat of a fraternity, and they like to stick to their own. It would also be a lot of work to train actors into the wrestling business, in terms of how the business works backstage and in front of a live audience.

Taz’s Producer Dennis Jones attended a CZW show this past weekend and although this overly violent brand of wrestling normally isn’t his cup of tea, he had a good time at this show. Taz says that CZW has been around for a long time and while it certainly isn’t for everyone, WWE Superstars such as Dean Ambrose and Luke Harper got their start in CZW.

WWE Monday Night Raw Results – 12 June 2017

Welcome to what promises to be an explosive episode of Monday Night Raw!

WWE.com has already confirmed that tonight’s show will open with Brock Lesnar, who will look to confront Samoa Joe! Last week Joe choked-out Paul Heyman and made this title match a lot more personal. Lesnar is liable to be fuming tonight and we could see a knock-down drag-out brawl between these two behemoths, although I think WWE should look to keep them apart.

Also on tonight’s show, The Hardy Boyz will get a Tag Team Championship rematch against Sheamus & Cesaro. Can Matt and Jeff win the titles back, or will Shesaro win by hook or crook? This could serve as the end of the feud tonight, or a simple roadblock on route to their next big encounter. It’s a little too soon to end this feud, especially when there’s no viable contender’s in the immediate background.

The Miz and Dean Ambrose are still embroiled in a feud over the Intercontinental Championship, although last week The Miz angered his wife Maryse. Ambrose is deep inside Miz’s head and I would expect that to continue here tonight. Elsewhere, Nia Jax got screwed out of a proper title match with Alexa Bliss last week and she will no doubt be on the hunt for revenge. And then we have Enzo and Cass, who are still getting attacked on a weekly basis. Are The Revival really the culprits? That seems far too obvious at this point, but we will hopefully find out tonight just who is behind the attacks.

That’s the preview for tonight’s show! What do you think is going to go down? Let us know in the comments and be sure to check out the awesome Ringside News app, enjoy the show!
