Batista, Pink Shirt....Wrong!

Cena, Superstar of the Year, and sheesh didn't they make Punk look bad, did there match even make the 3 minute mark?

The Guest Host got virtually no reaction at all, although political jokes when the audiences average age is 8 is always a bad idea.

The D-X skit before the Main Event kept me amused, as did their title defence, although Finlay in D-X Garb is also VERY wrong!  I did think JTG suited it though, with their mic skills and the youthful aspect Cryme Tyme would fit, it could help get them over, maybe, well maybe just JTG, he is meant to be the talented one after all.

Was the "Oh My" award because "Oh My God" isn't PG?

Why didn't Undertaker come out for that MOTY award?

Do we really want to see Taker vs. Michaels @ WM?  It was so great, why not move on, are ideas so limited?

Carlito in his brief role was amusing and a great talker as always, he needs a sustained push!

Expect another 'Punk's in the doghouse' report coming up shortly....

I have to admit I do quite enjoy DX's antics, though it was kinda odd having Michaels challenging Undertaker to a match at Wrestlemania, then later in the show having him drinking eggnog and trying to catch Hornswoggle.

And Finlay in DX stuff does look weird.

Vince has incurred the wrath of God before. Remember when God got jobbed out at Backlash a few years ago? Vince doesn't want to push his luck....

Why didn't Undertaker come out for that MOTY award?

And give an acceptance speech full of references to death and hell?



Also, did anyone else get incresingly annoyed at that person (a kid I'm assuming) who must have been sitting near to the announcers and kept screaming throughout the show, especially when Cena was out? God, what a terrible sound....

Maria, Diva of the Year? Injustice! What's she done this year that's award-worthy?!

"Dennis Milburn"

An odd lack of Sheamus, despite him being the new WWE Champ. Just an acceptance speech and an appearance at the end....

Thats what happens when you left the fans vote!

If anything said, "We didn't plan beyond him winning the belt and now he is Champion we don't know what to do with him".  That was it.

Incidently I'm a big fan of comfy clothes and blankets and such, if I was 15 years younger, that skit would have won me over.

And speaking of that skit, HBK getting pummeled "Accidently" by Triple H in Russo Era WWE would be the catalyst for them to feud again.

[Izzy]

I watched the first 30 mins to see what they would do with their new champ...

...would we see some changes, some new energy?

No

if Triple H took the belt we'd have a 15 min speach - here we have a new guy winning the title in his virtual debut and...nothing?

Made the belt look pointless - 'he's won, who cares'

hmm so in a 6 man tag match you dont need to pin the legal man to win the match?

Refs are easily confused, I was more baffled by Ted doing the job again.

[Izzy]

Midget courts?

Is RAW actually pantomime?

Why isn't Vince embarrases - sure the wrestlers can't speak out but doesn't he meet other rich SOB's that bring up the fact he's got a very sleazy Disney on his hands?

[BlowUpYourVideo]

That episode of Raw was very..... odd. It took me until an hour into the show to 'get' what the hell was going on with the guy in the tiger costume....

Though at least they expanded on Sheamus/Cena a bit. Odd that they didn't do that last week.

I also laughed at Jerry Lawler's "Really?!" response when Cole said it had been a weird night. I don't think the announcers knew what was going on a lot of the time.

[Hammy]

If there was ever a giveaway things were PG, it was having a wrestler call out the "Real Santa Claus"....

[Izzy]

WCW was PG, PG doesn't have to mean kiddie

what is vince doing?

Quality will sell - Vince is killing wrestling

[D]

absolute terrible Raw last week... actually had it recorded and finally watched it last night... wish i hadn't.....

[Yankee1012]

Live tonight on Monday Night Raw, WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon will address the rumor of WWE Hall of Famer Bret "Hit Man” Hart's return to WWE. Is The Excellence of Execution bound for Raw after a 12-year absence from WWE?

RAW already looks better this week than last week.

Vince just needs to axe this guest host **** unless he has a good host... if not just do a regular Raw or have some old superstar from the past.

Exactly, don't axe it just keep with good hosts, mainly former stars.

Ventura rocked and I'm sure Bret will be v. good too.

[D]

Yeah and Mike Tyson is huge.

but last week's was horrible. the entire show was bad cept for the funny Jericho/Big Show bit and the DX thing was good... not sure it was good enough to be shown twice.
