Tawren 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2004 *SPOILERS INSIDE* I went to Raw...lots of fun. Results from dark/Heat matches, may be out of order: Chuck Palumbo beat jobber (Bobby Rude?). Very bad. Lance Storm beat Steven Richards. Huge reaction for both. Short match. Grand Master Sexay beat jobber. Rosey w/ Hurricane beat Sylvan Grenier. Bad match, huge pop for Hurricane. Shelton Benjamin beat Rhyno. Very bad match. Small reaction for both. Raw stuff: Jericho/Christian was great live, huge pop for both and great heat all the way through. Benoit interview was great, deafening reaction for Benoit. Small reaction for Edge. Crowd shit all over Cade/Tajiri. Cade is terrible and nobody was reacting. Here the Go Flames Go chant? Yeah. Huge pop for Hardy attacking Kane. I mean HUGE. Main event was pretty boring, but Benoit = double champ? Peter Marr: "Yeahhhhhh baby!" Post-show Benoit and Edge payed tribute to Stu and Owen Hart. HHH came out and said "I may have tapped out, but you all live in Canada!" and left. Funny line. Huge pops for Benoit the whole way through. Lots of fun. I doubt I got on TV, I was high up but perfectly parallel to the ring and front row of the Executive Club balcony. Not the best show I've been to, but the best Raw out of the 3 I've attended (5/28/01, 9/??/02). Biggest pops: Benoit Hardy attacking Kane Hurricane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tawren 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2004 Wait...you liked this better than the May 28, 2001 RAW? Wasn't that the night of the Benoit/Austin match that was really good? Yes. Maybe I'm just so happy that Benoit's a double champ and how much fun it was live...it's been awhile since I watched that Raw. Maybe even, maybe less? Way better than the 9/02 one, though.

LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2004 Now that I think about it the 5/28/01 RAW was when they once again did another recreation of the Montreal Screw Job right in front of the Hart Family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Possibly during the main event...but I DO remember Shelton's name being mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Goodear Report post Posted April 20, 2004 HHH thought that the new kid wasn't going to get as over as he is now, but i guess it's time for Shelton to "pay his dues". How odd... considering Triple H WAS THE ONE THAT PUT HIM OVER. But no, making sense is too much to ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
