RAW LIVE Coverage & Discussion Thread - 10th Dec, 2007

[That Rob]

This Raw has been so boring. Aside from seeing Sunny (and I mmust admitt she looks hot) nothing has really gotten me excited about the 15th anniversary. Too much Triple H, reminds me of 202-2005 when he was the champion, he was in the beginning segment which was fine, the Evolution segement, which was boring and the match was crap (they shove Umaga down our throats, don't they know that he'll never be World or WWE championship material?) and then
That ladder match was way to quick, nothing special in it, nothing really worth commenting on either.

What a way to kill a superstar, lets have him face a former wrestler, who at this time has no plans on coming back and hey just for the hell f it why not make it last less then a minute? Rob Van Dam

A Survivor Series rematch? Nope not one for us to get excited about, just Khali and Hornswoggle. Khali is garbadge and how does he still have a job and how can they think that a matcvh between a 7'4 man and a 4'something guy sell? Please, give me something to get excited about already. Oh hey look Hulk Hogan's wife took everything so he needed another pay off. Please tell me that this isn't the start of a feud to relive Wrestlemania III, you can't relive it, even Vince should know that, look at ow well the reincarnation of NWO went.

The Battle Royal besides the ending was pointless and boring, Their enterences took longer then the match itself, Steve Blackman looked in shape though. They should bring back Head Cheese ( for everybody out there who doesn't know who that was it was a tag team made up of Al Snow and Steve Blackman) and it was good to see Gillberg, my altime favorite jobber.

Bischoff is god in wrestling but he too didn't get a reaction from m and am I the only one who has been bored with Jericho since after the first week? I did like the save these fans the $40 comment tho.

Team Genetic wins the titles. GHreat a part of me died after seeing Cody with a title. :cry: There are so many more deserving people for a title then a guy who uses the DDT as a finisher.

It was good to see Trish and Lita back in a WWe ring, can't complain about this or Lita nad Kane.

yay another tryout match for Jannetty? Hopefully this is the only time for another 12 months i see him on my TV... Oh yay Triple H again a Dx one night reunion for the 20th time this year? Either keep them together or leave them on their own!

Can anybody really be surprised about Vince announcing the Greatest superstar as himself? Pointless. Boring. And above all else a waste of TV time. Mick Foley finally shows up but fo 10 seconds? Undertaker as well, oh yeah here comes Austin. Always good to see Austin in a WWE ring. And this was classic Austin, please bring him back as the GM or sherriff again...please do something good and for the fans.

For the hype that was built up to this event to me it really didn't deliver like I was hoping. No Bobby Heenan? No video for the deseased? No Sable? No Sid like they promised earlier today? Matches were nothing spectacular. In between the beginning (which i thought that Hornswoggle was gold in) and the end (I laughed hard when he dumped his beer on his dad and acted like he didn't mean to do it) there was nothing great. I wanted to puke when I watched this, for everybody they invited there and the greats that showed up they could have done so much more but they didn't.

Anyways thats my little rant.

[tommy]

I thought today was awesome. Did anyone see CM Punk drink the beer he was given?

[JohnCenaFan28]

^ I didn't see him drink it, but I doubt he did. He might have gotten a coke like Regal:dunno: I wish they let us see all the superstars in the ring instead of blocking out part of the screen with Armageddon advertising and then cutting it off before everyone could arrive to the ring:hmm:

[XXKSXX]

I liked the show was pretty good. I can't believe Bashtin Booger was there that just cracked me up. As long as Lita was there I had no problem with the show at all.

[LionDen]

Seeing Blackman and RVD back in the ring was awesome, not to mention some of the other names in that battle royal. Also awesome to see Mankind and see Jericho tell off Bischoff, no love lost there lol. I would have liked to see Kane in his mask and scare Lita when she turned around, even if it would be just a joke. I actually wonder if Hogan would have done this show if it was not for American Gladiators to promote.

One of the best RAWs i have seen.

Nice job Kellie

[xfactor]

This Raw was great. The best I have seen in a while. I just have to say that Lita seemed mad during her part.

And the gayest most boring part of the show was Chris Jericho's part. Y2J could have came out after Bishoff was talking and instantly put him in the Walls of Jericho. Not talk in metaphors for 20 mins.

I was so hyped up for Jericho's return, but since he came back he's been $H!T.

[Bad Boy]

the show seemed, good, and I will def watch this one... thx for the pbp...

[JohnCenaFan28]

I wish the people who came back that can still wrestle like RVD, Blackman, Lita and Trish would stay The show really made me want them back and miss them even more...

[Black Widow]

hogan in black & white colours.. and nwo belt buckle.. dont ask my eyes were on the belt not crotch

[LionDen]

Yeah I found it strange Hogan had on the NWO colors, he always gets a larger reaction for the original colors. I would love to see Blackman come back, he looked like he was in great shape. lol Some classics in that Battle Royal.

I agree xfactor, Jericho has not impressed me at all, he seems almost he wants to be another Rock ever since he has returned with his talking.

I think Undertaker the only superstar to still be performing since the first RAW on a weekly basis. He should have been promoted more.

[JohnCenaFan28]

^ Yeah, Undertaker deserved much more honourable mention. The Ministry of Darkness should have been given a mention too, not just clips along with the deceased RAW members(Eddie, Owen and Brian)

[LionDen]

Yeah, Ministry of Darkness and the Corporation helped WWE beat WCW, they definately should have been given a mention.

Awesome ending of RAW though.

[That Rob]

^ Yeah, Undertaker deserved much more honourable mention. The Ministry of Darkness should have been given a mention too, not just clips along with the deceased RAW members(Eddie, Owen and Brian)

Not just those three though, Vrian Clark, Mike Lockwood (Crash Holly), Rick Rude, Big Boss Man, Bam Bam Bigelow, Mr. Perfect and the others, there are too many too name right now, but the WWE should have honoured them, it's a pity they didn't, truth be told I was waiting for the video of the deseased all night and when it ended and there wasn' tone I was mad.

I watched the show again and I stand by my statements made yesterday, the match quality they put on was crap, most of the promo's were done great, and there was too much Triple H, it turned into a Triple H appreiation night IMO.

[JohnCenaFan28]

^ Well, Triple H was one of the greatest parts of RAW history plus... he's married to Steph

[LionDen]

lol poor Triple H, he was in the background for so many years while Stone Cold, Rock and Undertaker and others stole the show, he has earned his dues.

[marcusfenix]

Damn, what happened to Sunny? she looks sexier than most divas currently employed by WWE :shock: . Great to see Trish and Lita too. Theyre looking very lovely aswell and I feel ashamed since I kinda took their last WWE stints for granted and seeing them again makes me wish they still wrestle

Its great to see some old stars aswell. RVD was a surprise, and i've always wanted to see Steve Blackman return to a WWE ring and this is the closest I can get

I've always wanted to see Hogan come out to Black and White colors because the red/yellow has been worn too much. Maybe the whole "Hollywood" black/white attire represents the dark time he's going thru with his life, eh? (jk)

Too much to list. There could've been more superstars that would've been perfect for a one time appearance, but heres hoping for the 20th anniversary :hi:

[JohnCenaFan28]

^ Yeah, can't wait for the 20th Anniversary:evilgrin:
