WWE Raw Thread

Unfortunately, it's always the same when major shows are filmed outside the US/Canada. It's nice to have them but the matches tend to be sub par and the stories don't get progressed much! I guess Vince likes to keep the good stuff for the 'home' fans!!

I remember the few PPV's they used to do in the UK, like Rebellion! It was nice to have them but generally the matches were just like standard weekly show matches and you'd never get a major title change at one, maybe the Women's or European title, at a push!!

Only Summerslam '92, has been a really good show outside the US/Canada.

Come on don't be too harsh, how great a way to get the crowd hyped at the top of the show, a promo from Laryngitis, Mr. Charismatic himself!! :p
Raw just seems to be trending shit shows at the moment!! I love how this was the 'go home' Raw for Vengeance! They really hyped it and didn't just mention all matches like throw away comments, they don't give a shit about!! :p

What a great opening to Monday Night Raw. Promote 3 WM matches in one segment. Smart move, WWE.

That was legit too...............

I've only been watching bits and pieces of RAW for awhile now, but for some reason I watched all of RAW tonight and I was surprised that it was as good as it was. The opening segment with Lesnar and Cena was great, a perfect way to start RAW by rebuilding on the Lesnar and Cena feud from 2003. Seeing Santino and Brodus Clay as a tag team was good too, it was refreshing to see Brodus not squash anyone, however I was rooting for Ziggler and Swagger.

I hope the Lord Tensai matches don't always end like that. Why can't he just pin or something. At least now WWE is getting some more monsters. We got Lord Tensai and Kane (a little). Still need more monsters in WWE.

I know Undertaker is now a WM wrestler but I am a bit fed up of it constantly being John Cena coming against the hierachy of RAW.

I mean this Laurantis rubbish is growing tired already. This is a storyline in which the deadman could have thrived in with his current state of health, after all as good old J.R used to say he is the conscience of the WWE and thats what this storline needs. A injection of someone who has been of old, whilst you have the HHH and Brock storyline building up, taker should return and take well care of laurantis and his enjoying voice.

R.I.P Laurantis I Thinks......

The WWE completely ruined the night after WrestleMania. Cena comes out, the crowd is hot, says he wants to defend the WWE Championship tonight which cues Mark Henry. I'm not a huge Mark Henry fan, but w/e. Not sure where this is headed, but instead of a title match on Raw (which is competing against the NCAA Championship) we get a match to determine if Henry will get a title match really. Needless to say, as soon as the NCAA Championship programming came on I changed the channel. Why make a match where the outcome is incredibly predictable, chances are Henry wins (probably shady, but still wins) to set up a title match next week. LAME!

RE-WRITE: Cena comes out for his promo, wants to give the WWE Universe a title match tonight. Mark Henry comes out. WWE Championship match is set for the main event. During the match it goes back and forth, Henry goes on the offensive and looks like hes on the verge of winning the title. The ref attempts to check on Cena, Henry doesn't want any part of it, pushes the ref out of the way and gives Cena a Worlds Strongest Slam and goes to cover. The ref DQ's him for putting his hands on, Cena retains. Next week Henry comes out and says he was screwed and wants a rematch. Bricky comes out and says that he will get his rematch at Extreme Rules in a Falls Count Anywhere Match or an Extreme Rules match. Might not be the best storyline ever, but has to be better than the crap we got tonight to open Raw.
