| Short review here as well:
I will do this segment by segment(it's a little easier for me):
Opening segment with Edge/Triple H/John Cena. Triple H showed how funny he can be with Triple H saying Edge can be the Premature Superstar and saying Lita is the only one that gets down on their knees. The SS did a pretty lame cheer though and actually had to explain it to everyone.
The 6 man tag match. Excellent match that showcased some great talent, I love seeing wrestlers hit finisher after finisher in these matched. I don't like how we are supposed to forget that less than 1 year ago Carlito attacked RVD on Carlito's Cabana and kept him out even longer.
Vince had a great look on his face when Shane said "I swear to God" during the interview Grisham was doing with Vince.
Kane/Big Show backstage. Kane looked like a monster here just destroying Big Show. I'm not excited for they reveal May 19th to mean though since it will probably be lame.
Bikini Contest. Maria was easily the winner in this lame segment, and why did Candice get her own music while the other 3 had to use the same song. Does Viscera got something over Vince or something? He's one lucky SOB to not only have a job but to also get to kiss Candice like that.
I don't get all the hate that Shane McMahon gets from some people. He showed how good and entertaining he can be in his match against Shawn Michaeld on RAW. Props to him for putting his body on the line like that when he doesn't have too.
Quick squash match by Umaga over some jobber named Steve Lewington. He's not that bad, although I question how good his match against Ric Flair will be at Backlash.
I hope Trish goes back to being a blond soon, she looks better that way(although she still looks good). Nice to see Mickie back to being a brunette though.
The handicap match was decent, and Edge came out looking like the smart heel leaving the ring and letting Triple H and John Cena beat the hell out of each other.

Overall it was a good show, better than the last UK Raw for sure. I think it would have felt better if it wasn't taped though.
