4 Ups & 10 Downs From WWE Raw (Dec. 13)

8. Veer Is Still Coming

Oh my God, guys, the Veer vignette changed!

After two months of an identical video airing weekly proclaiming that “Veer Mahaan is coming to Raw,” a new video aired Monday that included a message from Veer.

Apparently, the lion is the king of the jungle and must hunt prey, kill it and eat it. But sometimes, he does it just for fun. Ooooooh, they’re saying Veer is going to hunt wrestlers for fun!

Two months of planning for that video and angle/character/gimmick? We’ve veered (har har) past the Emmalina comparisons to the Simpsons’ meme of Milhouse asking when Itchy & Scratchy are going to get to the fireworks factory.

Seriously, Veer better be training and come into Raw impressive as hell, because if he’s just Generic Big Heel #147, it’s going to go over like a wet fart.
