iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 Well, I might as well start it. I missed the opening of the show but I read about the MNF spoof. Hopefully some video gets put online. Val Venis went bald? Huh? Benoit/Edge got basically no heat because of the cheap ass bait and switch of promoting Benoit/HHH all night and changing it at the last minute. And anyone can see clear as day that Batista didn't attack HHH and that he did it so HHH could get out of his title matches. Marked out for Benoit setting up for the headbutt, thinking that he was going to do it off of the top (though for obvious reasons he wasn't going to do it.) Liked the ending to the match, despite everything else, though. "Tommor..." Slicccck one, Randy. VISCERA VS. TRIPLE H? OMG RATINGS YES! I thought the ending was weak...I was expecting Steamboat to come out and beat the crap out of Evolution, but blah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benoit is GM, so he makes a match vs HHH, but HHH lies his way out of it, so GOOD OLE RANDY ORTON~!!! saves the day by threatening HHH for next week. Benoit was made to look as a complete retard; why didn't he strip HHH of the title? Why didn't he re-schedule the match? Fuck. What a bunch of retards.

reign 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 Yeah the Dragon woulda' ruled. I was just hoping to see them continue the rising tension between HHH and Batista(which it still looks like they're going to do anyways) until the fourth week when I thought Orton would be GM and then he would make the HHH/Batista match. Benoit should've had his match with HHH tonight and Snitsky could've come out from under the ring or something but as usual the WWE is apparently serious about ruining everything even remotely entertaining. Tonight started great with the MNF skit but then the heels just ran through the faces up until the six-man tag. Even Coach got way to many shots in on Rhyno. I was completely disappointed with the fake injury that fooled no one. I really thought that this was the 4 weeks the Vince and crew could get something going but like a big boot from Snisky Raw's momentum was stopped cold. I never thought that Raw is Maven would be better than Monday Night Crippler.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RHR 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 My thoughts on RAW....hold on...lemme gather my thoughts on what I actually saw (got to the bar at 6:45...thank you again to Rando's board for the insights)...anyway....tonights RAW...ummm...lemme...ummm...what is the word I am looking for...oh...yeah... COMPLETE FUCKING SHIT. I was really looking forward to a good 25-30 minute Cage match...with Batista running out and showing his colors by making Benoit lose...be it by a monster Dave cage climb and throwing Benoit off...or just slamming the door on him...but fucking Triple Rhodes Russo H Fuck had to stroke his ego...and the Chosen One Orton somehow came out at the end...and proved he IS over...with screaming idiot girls...who...once they come to their womanly senses...will move on to better things....(not alot of Backstreet Boys fans left, eh Vince?)...flubs an easy line...and we get the prospect of HHH going over the ENTIRE roster next week...leading to a Flair/HHH match during Jericho's GM night...either that, or, YET ANOTHER, HHH burial of Jericho.... I am going home soon. I am going to pull out my ECW Dvd, my copy of WM XVII, and some other random things...then...I'm going to put on the new Nirvana box set, grab a bottle of whiskey...and wish for better days of yesteryear... Thank you Vince...the circle is now complete...I am now a cranky old man. FUCK YOU, WWE!!! Sorry...had to rant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STOP OVERANALYZING~! He got outsmarted by Evolution? Yea. And evidently so did everyone else in the locker room. Why the hell would he strip him of the title?...That's just...not something you do. And for one you can attribute that even to Benoit's whole 'honor code' shit. (Yea, I know he doesn't really have one...but 'Benoit's character' wouldn't do that) If it was Gene Snitsky or something, then yea, I might could see him trying to strip him of the title. But how is stripping Trips of the title...'interesting'? And the guy just had a 20+ minute cage match against Edge...couldnt even get out on his own...yea, he was just going to all of a sudden come back out and strip Trips of the title...or restart a match..sure. And yes, 'Orton came out and saved the day' but I'm sure if it was Jericho...there would have been no complaints because of course, unless it's Jericho or Benoit its.. CONSPIRACY THEORY~! FAG SMARK~!

reign 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 Benoit did get screwed tonight because any smart person would've just dumped cold water on HHH to see if he was really just faking the injury...and there was like twenty minutes left in the show anyways..long enough for a cage match, a backstage segment, a commercial break and another interview...they made him look stupid and then didn't give him a title shot and as I said earlier derailed the momentum of what was going to be four solid weeks of Raw. I don't understand why those in charge of this show can't get a grasp on what the fans want...this show can't be entertaining to anybody...Raw is getting X-Pac heat...

Tawren 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2004 It made NO sense. Why wouldn't Benoit even reschedule a match for next week, saying "Orton can't erase this match"? But no. HHH tricked him. Again. HHH outsmarted him. Again. Orton came out and stopped that dastardly HHH, though! Even though Benoit was STILL GM! Even if Benoit wouldn't strip him of the title, why wouldn't he sign himself up for a title shot later? It makes no sense. Benoit was made to be a chump who was easily outsmarted.

Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted November 23, 2004 The only problem with Benoit was this; He should have just gone "You know what? Screw HHH. I can just beat his ass someother time. But YOU edge! I'm sick of you and there's a cage out there. You're mine". Instead of the "well, gee looks like the champion is hurt and unable to wrestle. Hey! I dont like you. get in the ring" routine. Bald Venis finally gives into his receeding hairline and isn't he the 10th guy in the last year to shave his head? How did Steven Richards wiggle his way into the locker room there? Viscera will obviously get the "How do they get rid out of him" push next weekend. It'll come down to Benoit-Maven-Benjamin-Jericho-Viscera-HHH and Batistia. HHH will do the finger thing and point at Viscera and say "let's all dump him" so the dumb faces agree and Batistia and HHH just simply shove Maven/Jericho and Benoit at once and Beat down Benjamin who makes a brief effort and knocks out Viscera by sheer will. HHH will get dropkicked over but hangs on ala HBK and Batistia tosses Benjamin over and assumes he won the title but HHH rolls back in and shoves 'Tista out. Jericho's Raw will just be O.C Worship and likely crazy gimmick stipulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
