The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I've made a RAW thread which is basically for discussing what happens on RAW. Every week just talk about what happened on RAW, I never actually see that much talk about each show so I've decided to make this thread. Whatever you do PLEASE don't put any spoilers in or if you really have to do it after Friday Night.
I think this seems like a good idea but if you guys don't like it just let it die, however, if this works out I'll make a smackdown thread soon enough.

Lol yeah, how can an ex-wrestler have no wrestling knowledge? Silly Figo.

Well, seeing as Lawler had a good few years under his belt in Memphis and around the territories, made himself a big name and made himself what he is now, I'd say he knew a bit about the business. Especially when compared to an ex-businessman who's never had a proper wrestling match in his entire life.

Well we all know that The King has no wrestling knowledge whatsoever and thats what makes the partnership with JR work so well.
And he was commenting on how fit they are, rather than wrestling ability.

LMAO!! sorry but what?!?! The only decent ones they have there is Molly, Victoria and Gail Kim the rest make the Chuckle Brothers seem professional at what they do. The Japanese ladies are a million light years ahead of the WWE divas in terms of talent (and looks as well) seems like Lawlers been staring at too many Diva magazines, made his brain go all fuzzy.
However saying that quite a change to see a ladies match that didn't look as bad as a train accident. However what was up with Victoria? It was only a few weeks ago she was a psycho witch, now she seems to be having a fit as she's coming down to the ring.
Speaking of botching, big applause for Batista who actually made the ladies look professional with his display. I think he managed to pull one move off correctly. The guy couldn't even execute a realistic looking armbar for god sakes, and this is meant to be a top guy in the business? I've seen blind, one legged midgets wrestle better than that.

I don't think it will be the start of a new feud.Kane is still on Lita.

Yep, I totally agree. And the fact that they're looking to keep the belt on Eddie for a long while probably means that when the SD! brand continues to fail, Eddie will be the one getting buried afterwards. If Booker and RVD weren't both caught up in random feuds (the Undertaker feud is going to end up nowhere), Eddie might have some credible contenders, but alas, no.

Good points well made and I fell more sorry for Guerrero than Benoit as Guerrero is getting even worse feds than Beot and Vince will blame him when Smackdown's ratings plummet.

I don't think it's as sinister as that, to be honest. Granted, Benoit as champion should be having the top-drawing feud, in theory, but the fact is, for the WWE fans, HHH-HBK is money, and WWE doesn't need to leave money on the table. It'd be foolish of them to miss out on this opportunity to have a big pay-off match, especially as a Raw-only PPV needs all the star power it can get to draw fans in.
Of course, Benoit shouldn't be the one saddled with carrying Kane to a good match. He needs a Jericho or (in time) a Shelton , someone able to hang with him in the ring, and for them to put on a fabulous ***** match. But I think this is more WWE wanting Kane to be another main-eventing guy as opposed to them just wanting Benoit to be buried as champion. They have been putting a lot of emphasis on him being champion lately, but when Benoit won the title off HHH, it meant there was still the HHH-HBK feud to conclude, and it would have been amazingly poor booking to leave it randomly open. Benoit has to take the back seat whilst HHH and HBK finish up, because that feud has more drawing power than Benoit-Kane (and who can be surprised?).
It's up to WWE to bring the spotlight back on Benoit after HHH and HBK finish, and it's then that we can sure as to whether or not they're burying Benoit.

Erm, surely a feud should be buiklt in the road to the pay-per-view not thrown together and started at the PPV? Compare the build up Benoit vs Kane has had to the build-up Michales/HHH has had, which only goes to prove the WWE are trying to bury Benoit as champion so they don't have to give him the belt again when he does lose it.

Kane vs Chris Benoit is something new...it's the start of a new feud. It should indeed be very interesting.
My favourite feud leading up to a title match is still the fatal 4-way between The Rock, Kane, The Undertaker and Chris Benoit at Unforgiven 2000...that ruled! :D
