My Raw Thoughts:


I LOVE the opening segment with Batista stating his victory and claiming to be a great champion, However, Ortons attack is realistic and a great way to make his injury look great.
During our first match, I laughed at the over-selling of William Regal, Good Job, Old Chum.
Yet again, I'm impressed at the storyline and how good it is, Orton/Batista later will be a good segment, obviously Batista won't be there.
The entire Divas Situation is not entirely good, Mickie/Maryse should be good soon.
I've just noticied how good of a wrestler is Maryse and Kellie Kelly.
lol @ The Miz, What a muppet .. However, he's very lucky to be with Maryse in a segment.
What a pair, Festus/Goldust/Hornswoggle/Santino .. This is how WWE are making their tag team group sell? By making it all comedy.
Wow, That move Festus did to TBKs face was awesome imo.
Can't wait for next weeks 3 hour show (I'm just saying!)
Agreed, Cena is the most over-rated star in history, Miz got it spot on!
Big Show comes out, And pretty much is ruining the first proper wrestling match (Kofi/Regal and the 6 man one was good, But this one has SO Much potential, For Show to come out and ruin it all seems pretty annoying)
Wow, Vickie has quit Raw, I hope Flair doesn't become the new GM, I may stop watching it he does :shifty:
On a difference to earlier, The tag team division is picking up, Colons/Priceless are two great teams, Who do deserve alot of air time. They are both 2 teams that make Raw entertaining (in a wrestlign way.) and are two teams going to be the future of Raw in months to come.
lol @ the ref telling Orton to do something and he didn't .. Seems like WWE Wrestlers are VERY good listeners.
Orton got cheated .. The 10 count only counts if he isn't in the squared cirlce, Not if he's in the arena .. bull.


What an awesome Raw, I can't wait for Next Weeks Raw with the 3 Title Matches in one night. 9/10 for this weeks Raw :D.

The Orton/Batista thing reminded me of when NWO killed WCW in late '98
