"RAW Thread"

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.

Which bit of my post are you talking about?

Really?

I thought Raw was okay, but I thought it was naff compared to the last 2 weeks. Flair vs Angle was great, and so was the Carlito/RVD segment, but otherwise...meh. :P

Raw was ok this week if we ignore the Diva Search segment (Which is hard because it took up a good 20 minutes of the show, probably longer). The Angle, Flair match was a good bout, RVD to RAW was cool (haha) and its always great to see the Hulkster, despite what all you Hogan haters say.

The promo's and backstage segments were also pretty good, in particular CC, Jericho and Tomko's segments.

Oh and I thought Hogan couldn't do the Leg Drop? He did it perfectly well on RAW.

:-D

However the most italian man in the world pwns everyone :-D

Oh and did some one say Matt Hardy?

Matt has apparentl agreed a short term deal to appear for Ring of Honour, now that his no-compete clause has expired. Interestingly he rebuffed TNA's offer of negotiations over a long-term deal.

Make of that what you will conspiracy theorists as Matt is now working woth a WWE affiliated federation. Matt is obviously not stupid and knows that the WWE see potential money in a feud between him and Edge, thus he's "leaving his options open" for now...

Now that's confusing. I though they sounded kinda similar, but with ROH's sound all commentators seem to sound the same, even Punk...

Getting back to the Shelton, top-rope incident, I read a review of Raw and the reviewer referred to it as Shelton 'channeling the spirit of J.T. Smith' that made me laugh.

Lovey was good, until Jimmy Bower came along, who isn't as good a commentator.

Even though... they're the same guy.

and to continue that list

JR
The King
Michael Cole

To give the flip side of the coin though...commentators who should just give up now:-

Don West,
Todd Grisham,
Steve Romero,
Jon House.

Got to love the professor
