| Overall, it was a pretty good raw - not perfect but then again even during the glory days of the attitude era, no raw was perfect either. Crowd was good for most of raw I thought and it seemed like a fast two hours to me. The unforgiven card excites me more than the Summerslam Card mainly because of this raw.
-edge cuts great promos. It's the little things that make him good like the "oh my" refernce to tlc, and ripping on cena comparing him to an ape. Cena is damn strong to toss edge over his head like that
-hardy-nitro was good for the start of a feud. The crowd ate into the finish huge considering its "only" the IC title which has seen some rough times. Can't help but feel sorry for benjamin, who in my eyes, should be on raw weekly
-seriously, i know it's been said twice here already but why oh why is Super Crazy on Raw and why did masters job? I hope that the WWE writers do their usual thing and expect us to forget this ever happen and put crazy back on smackdown and masters going back to his wiining ways (or losing to higher card wrestlers). Maybe masters might end up on smackdown to bolster up the cruiserweight division? - heck WWE writers have done worse
-triple threat tag was nothing special but at least there are some tag teams on raw now. especially with cryme tyme coming. But if they are a heel team, that leaves one face team on raw in the highlanders (btw i'm not counting duggan and eugene on purpose) with about 4 heel teams. exciting!
-dx-macmahons - short(ish) hence it wasnt all bad
-felt bad for maria kissing someone who could have retired before she was even born. She should have been kissing me! Liked her backstage clips of watching paint dry. CM Punk is one lucky dude!
-6 man tag was pretty good. That's what a raw main event should be like! Trish deserves to go in the hall of fame definitely and so does lita because she plays the heel role so well! On a subtle note, the interaction between cena and edge and carlito and orton was kept quite minimal overall. The build up for trish's final match by JR and King is pretty awesome IMO |
