I thought it was a great RAW, I guess I have lowered expectations than you guys.

If the Rock/Goldberg stuff wasn't there would you have thought it was a good RAW? I've heard of weak midcard before.......I think the WWE has finally hit the point where there is no midcard. Stuff just happens as time filler for the main events.

What I have learned tonight:

 

1) Only midcard babyfaces tap.

2) I'm one of two Goldberg fans in here.

3) Triple H will never lose the title to anyone except his friends.

Ugh. This Raw wasn't very good at all. I might be in the minority, but the Rock is really irratating me now. I was flipping when he was on, which seemed to be half the frickin' show. Seriously, I enjoyed HHH much more than I enjoyed Rock tonight. And it's not just because of Goldberg either. The only redeeming quality of tonight was, for me, the opening match. Every thing else was blah. And RVD only getting a minute of TV time is so *not* cool. Is that what they think build is?

Even the live crowd knows Booker's going to lose. They're not into it at all.

But realistically, without even knowing the partcipates of the match, is it really plausable? When is the last time a world title has changed hands on a RAW?

And had it stick? Rock over Mankind, in the ladder match the day after St. Valentine's Day Massacre 1999. (Of course, there was also the Jericho phantom title win in May 2000. I'm also not counting Booker's WCW Title win in 2001.) They need to do a switch at some point, just to make the crowd actually care.

 

OK, I'll admit the crowd picked up toward the end, but this "finish" is atrocious. Oh, and did anyone notice? No sign of Booker at all at the end. It's all about the Clique.

How can you say the live crowd wasn't into the main event? They were going apeshit. When Booker T. hit the axe kick, I couldn't believe how loud they were. They quieted off in the end because they got confused, just like everyone else. During the match though, they were livid.

 

Without the Rock skits, I would've still liked RAW. The curtain jerk match alone made me like Raw.

Yes, the finish was pretty stupid, but it wasn't the worse thing on the card by far. And phantom wins don't count, because RVD's over 'Taker, last year could count.

Austin won the title from Angle on a Raw in 2001.

I can say that because they weren't, at least when I made the comment. We got a delayed telecast here tonight, and they were midway through the match.

where was Goldust this week?

 

Did he drive away in the hummerlimo?

Goldust had a doctor's appointment, obviously. He had to go see a "neurological specialist." You know, I'd bet $100 if they even mention his absence next week, that's what they'll say. Even thought that would mean his doctor's office is open at 9 p.m.

 

Anyway, let's focus on the good things. I liked Chief Morely's little Brock-ish happy dance when the Dudleys music hit.

 

I liked Teddy Long's suit.

 

I liked that JR wasn't there.

That was extremely lame. And because of our dryer not working, I didn't even have laundry to fold during the lame-ass crap! No Stevie...No Victoria...No Goldust....what the fuck?!

 

Oh, by the way for anyone who cares, there's a rumor being said in one of the groups I'm in that the blonde Frenchman is...well.... Pat Patterson's "boy". I don't believe it either, but I just figured I'd pass it along.

I can do without Goldust. He never brings anything to the table. I'd rather watch a good match then chuckle at a back stage skit. Victoria is interchangable with Jazz & Trish, so that wouldn't have mattered to me. Stevie wouldn't have brought anything to the table because he never talks or wrestles. Still, had he come out and did some shit instead of the Lita segment, it would have been for the better.

When they're not wasting him in intergender matches or as a valet, Stevie gets a match, albeit a meaningless one. Like the Goldust match, what, a week ago? It's 3:30 am, so I'm not thinkin' straight. Anyway, a psycho vs wacko feud could be entertaining.........by simple logic, it has to be better than the Goldust/Test/Stacy thing.
