Aero 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Was anyone waiting for Cena to give Shawn the thumbs up.... then the thumbs down <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good, so I wasn't the only one. I just kiddingly mentioned that to my brother as soon as HBK hopped on. I got home during Flair-Carlito, so didn't see the first half, but the main event was awesome enough. I just read a report, and I'm disappointed to see no Benjamin... Poor Benjamin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Yeah this was a very fun Raw tonight, albeit a completely lame duck show. I thought Flair/Carlito was probably better tonight than at the PPV, but please god just END this goofy feud. Carlito is garbage, he still has zero finisher, no believable offense (I found myself wondering how Flair's eye could be busted....surely Carlito couldn't do it). I'm thinking they'll segue this into a Flair/Masters feud, which somehow makes me feel dirty knowing Flair will job. The 8 man tag was a really fun match, though I too wondered what was up with Edge getting jobbed out so bad. One thing that truly puzzles me: Why did they hype the Homecoming Raw show without mentioning the most important detail of them moving to USA??? It's bizarre, it's like they just assume everyone knows this. Why don't they, I dunno, TELL people on the show itself? Anyone have any idea why they are doing this and not mentioning the actual USA move? Is Spike refusing to let them mention USA? And if so, why would Vince give two shits?

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Is there a name for all of the goofy sitdown moves that Cena does? The hiptoss, as far as I know, doesn't have a name. It's affectionately known to myself and friends as "The Shit-toss"...a witty name, I'm sure you'll agree, because it does look like utter shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caliban 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 I didn't think the 8-man tag could live up to the 10 man tag match from Feb 2000 because for one, the crowd had been pretty dead all night. But they damn sure did it! Crowd was piping from start to finish and it was full of goodness. Matches like this get everyone involved a little more over. Edge won't be harmed by being the one to take the pinfall - he's probably going to SD to face Batista. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And someone should have told Ashley that she was supposed to run over to 'help' Trish while she was being attacked by Victoria outside the ring, not just stand there and watch.

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 does anyone else find Trish's "Matrix" ducking manuever to be, I don't know, kind of unbelievable? I mean, in most cases, when a person fires off a clothesline, it's very quick and very precise...when she does it, it's sooooo slooooow and totally unbelievable, you'd think she wouldn't have the time necessary to arch herself back before the clothesline hit her...they really should do away with it...maybe it's just me, but there's just something about that whole sequence that doesn't look right...

I really enjoyed that 4 man promo (well 5 including Todd). I was quite surprised that Matt Hardy actually showed some character other than "I WILL NOT DIE!". Refreshing. His and HBK's reaction to Cena's comment on Big Show's dick was funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
