Raw Thoughts

Tyler Durden

Hopefully King was being ironic. Some of us can remember the crap that he was posting day in day out when he departed WWE land following his wife's sacking only for her to then leave him.

i wish he had stayed gone sometimes

Well..we all know the deal. Raw was pretty boring. Why did matt fight? Why was there no Big Show? Why doesn't Carlito have a feud? Why are they making it so obvious now that Cena will win? Why did they think the crowd would cheer Hogan over Angle in Angle Country?


Stupid booking all the way around, but I don't care because I still think SummerSlam will be a fun watch.

Mr. Kennedy

It looked like the WWE was also expecting the fans to cheer for Eugene over Angle.

I liked the Cena vs. Jericho interaction but Raw was mostly filler with a bunch of guys on the show the majority of the public, myself included, that I really could care less about. That being said, the main event segment with HBK and Hogan was fucking amazing. I love how everything Michaels said was true and even Hogan almost made me cheer for him when he mentioned shawn screwing Bret Hart. Then of course that egotistical piece of shit has to go on to say that the reason he came back was for the Hulka maniacs. Really Hulk?! I thought it was to promote that reality show of yours in another attempt to get your no talent daughter famous. That bitch isn't even hot, I mean wtf?lol

Anyway, still great buildup to Summerslam as HBK/Hogan is shaping up to be one of my most aniticpated matches ever, even though its going to take everything HBK's got to coax a descent match out of him. Can't wait for Summerslam but Michaels had best go over.

Pros: Hogan and Hbk golden as usual. This match sells SummerSlam. I am really looking fwd to the PPV this year.


Cons: Everything else was just blah blah blah, Jericho, Connway, Viscera. Total waste of time.

Mister D did you ring that number Ashley said was her own? I was guessing if anyone on the forum would have rang it, it would have been you! Think Bouch tried it but it was busy! lol

As for my RAW thoughts..... not a great episode. I found myself laughing during Edge's promo as I cannot take him seriously. I'm getting tired of the Jericho / Cena feud no, as I know theres 2 wks left of it, If the pay off was next week i wouldn't be. Although I'm totally into the Hogan / Michaels feud..... this is probably the only reason i'm buying Summerslam for. I know it won't be a 5* match, but it's going to go down in history.

Next weeks RAWs in Montreal..... I think it could be an interesting one! (Fingers crossed!)

Pros: - Though his gimmick still blows, Conway's mic skills were top notch and the breif exchange with Vis backstage was great. Furthermore, I like how, Conway trageted Vicera's leg and weakend it enough to get a clean win. A CLEAN WIN for a heel against a mid-carder, it just seems so foriegn now.

-Big props to Stacy and Victora for taking monster bumps in that six man. Stacy getting slammed into the crowd barrier and Victoria being belley flopped by Rosie. And what a surpries win by the Heartthrobs, very nice.

- While booking Hardy in a match wasn't the smartest thing to do, afterwards when Edge attacked him and Hardy attacked him afterwards, you could feel the animosity it was awesome.

- The Diva Search, usally this would be on my other list, but when they got hit with pies and they all did or attempted to slap the Coach, that was hillarious.

- The HBK/Hogan promo was supurb top to bottom, and yeah I belive Hulk really does care for his fans (so sue me). I markked out when Hogan broke out the weight belt.

Cons: - Eugene, he wasn't welcome in my town and that "special" bastard cheated Angle out of his medals, whatever the have planned in the WWE better be good.

- What the hell was up with beating up a ref? You know we'll never get to see him sue Bischoff for his actions (which I'd like to see for a change), this was the worst book cheap heat ever and Jericho dosen't need it.

- Speaking of Jericho, will not win against Cena and they're making it painfully obvious. I want Jericho to win, but it would be too soon for Cena. It's a rediculus fued, I'd rather see who's Dominic's daddy than this.

- Speaking of Cena, his rap was average.

- No Shelton, no Big Show huh??

Overall: Raw was pretty good, but not memerable.
