| Very good RAW, man! I absolutely loved Jericho's promo. You captured his character perhaps even better than he has (or maybe it's just because I'm already bored of him on SD). The end was appropriate considering how big those two matches at Judgment Day will be, so I can excuse the no contest in a main event. Jamal was a real surprise, and while some could say that Legacy is getting a bit big here, I think what you have right now is a solid number. With how much Legacy is involved in the feuds on RAW, it's surprising that I don't feel Legacy's overall presence isn't overwhelming the show. Nice job. |
Thanks, Jericho is a pretty fun character to write for just because he is such a great stable villain. I'm trying to give his character a bit more depth with his own stable.
I'm not a big fan of using No Contests or false finishes unless they move along the storylines in some purpose. This is the last show before the PPV, meaning that if this was WWE IRL the last image people would see would be the two Main Events for Judgment Day in a huge brawl at the end of the show. Truthfully I booked this far in advance, all my shows are pretty much booked at once in cliff notes one month/ppv at a time, then when the time comes I write them in advanced form. It's kind of funny because Smackdown used the same tactic of having the last show before the PPV end in a brawl consisting of the stars in their PPV Main Events.
As for Jamal I decided to use Jamal instead of Umaga as Umaga's character has very little depth at this point. WWE made the mistake of getting rid of Armando his old manager so at this point he can't really carry on a feud because he can't speak on the microphone in order to communicate and advance the storylines.
Not to spoil anything, but Legacy is now 100% complete. Since Cody Rhodes wasn't drafted to WWE I couldn't just leave Legacy as Orton and Dibiase. That is why I added DH Smith along with Jamal Fatu. Unlike on RAW where Legacy's main purpose is to back up Orton, I'm trying to give each member some sort of significant feud in the background of whatever Orton is doing, although since they are all in the same stable it sometimes interlinks together.
Thanks for the review.
