They didn't really need Austin on the show.

Most of the legends were part of storyline stuff.

Overall RAW was fucking epic. WWE Creative really stepped up for this one, how long will it last that's the question.

Oh they were? Mae Young? Sgt Slaughter? Hart? Or do you mean the people in the Slatter Angle that was designed soley for this show

Why would they give the case back? They had a match, doubt there is anything in the contract which says that if Cena gets screwed over he gets another shot.

Overall a exciting raw with some interesting devolpments and the way it shapes summerslam will be good to see. Will be back on to discuss things more tomorrow. Later guys.

Austin was one of the biggest names of all time and featured in most of the biggest RAW moments. He should have made an appearance on this milestone show.

That's true but he was filming so it was quite obvious he wasn't going to turn up, besides RAW was still great.

Cena won't get the case back but will obviously get another shot at SS.

I love how "No Stone Cold" is trending worldwide. I wanna see if Austin gives a reason on twitter later why he wasn't on.

After RAW went off the air, The Big Show gets and starts to go after John Cena. The Rock and Cena recover and take down the Big Show. Cena hits Show with an AA, then puts Show into position for a People's Elbow. The Rock doesn't have an elbow pad, and Cena gives him a "Cenation" armband to peel off. The Rock made a joke about how big the armband was and hit the People's Elbow on Big Show.

The Rock then thanked everyone and posed with a few fans and sends them home happy. Show is still in the ring as the house lights come on.

No Austin was a great big load of shit. I was grateful to see the legends we did, particularly Lita and Taker, but jesus. No Austin?

Very unusual heel turn by Punk. I'm not hating on it, but I don't quite get it either.

And AJ as GM... really?

I'm all sorts of confused right now. Very weird episode.

I was disappointed by that ending to be honest. Maybe it's because I'm one of the biggest Rock haters but it was such a LETDOWN. And I don't see how that could be a heel turn. He gave Rock a GTS. Thats fucking awesome. If attacking Rock counted as a heel turn then Cena would be the biggest heel right now. The only good that can come of this is Punk beating Rock at Royal Rumble.

And no Stone Cold, Edge, or new title makes me sad.

It was all going brilliantly until they let the vanilla midget get the spotlight at the end.

Slick was the best thing about Raw btw.

It's 3 hours you could have only used so many guys can't have every old name you ever had though I understand the let down in no Austin but apparently he is filming Grown Ups 2.
