Pretty good RAW tonight. It's like someone popped in a tape from the Monday Night Wars and said 'gee, wrestling was fun when it wasn't predictable, when we had 'shoot' segments and lots of surprises. Maybe we should do that again'. Cant complain about RAW the past few weeks.
It also seems like a different show when you can have a top guy in every segment due to the draft, but I have to wonder if they can keep those guys as top guys or if they will lower their stature.
Big Show was an obvious draft choice. I thought the second guy would be Eddie. It just seems like they are gutting SD though. I like RVD getting mic time, but I'd rather see him on top then in a mind-level feud with Carlito, but if they play up his 'shoot-ness' and unhappiness, he could be a very fun guy to watch.
On SD, Batista and Christian were drafted. I guess Christian will get the chance to be a top guy, but you have to wonder if they have enough over guys to make it work. Seems they have really decided that SD is the feeder show to RAW. But good for HHH to put him over before the jump. Though I am surprised since it seemed HHH had a hard-on for the WORLD title as opposed to the WWE title.
Angle/Flair - 15-20 minutes. Pure Gold!
Hulk Hogan!
"Kevin Nash would tear a hamstring answering the phone" Gold
"I hear Marty Jannetty's in Jail" GOLD!
And rumours abound that Matt is on his way back...
