Sometimes no build or hype is better.

Bret Hart winning, in the way that he did, was some real retardation.

Why was Bret Hart celebrating like he actually did won something? That is pretty cheap, it's so obvious that he himself MUST realize he didn't do SHIT to win that title lol.

I can't imagine what they'll do with the belt now.

The best part of that entire segment was Michael Cole for once not defending the faggotry of it and actually being against it.

The Hart/Miz 'match' if you can call it that was random and confusing. Shouldn't there have been a DQ like 8 different times? It was really a clusterfuck and Bret looked worse then he did at Mania. I love Bret and all but what he is doing is sad. I have nothing against him being in the WWE again but do you have to wrestle? The Miz's pre match promo was pretty awesome though imo.

I loved how Cole raged after Hart won. I don't know if it could be considered 'Heeling out' but I have to admit, for once I wasn't screaming STFU!!! At Cole.

Orton/Swagger was pretty fucking awesome, they both came out of it looking awesome.

Also, did anyone else find Cena's promo kind of strange?

Yeah, lol I thought that much. Also, it was kind of odd actually hearing him mention the "CeNation" I don't recall him ever actually mentioning them in that way, I have heard him say WWE Universe and "his fans" a million times but never once can I remember him saying CeNation, could be wrong though.

Was I watching Raw last night? Pretty hard to tell when about one third of the wrestlers were from Smackdown, c'mon Raw have the most packed roster since before the creation of Smackdown but they still have to use Smackdown's stars. Having said that, Raw was pretty (I apoligise in advance to Mizmasta) ACE!

I wasn't paying much attention to the opening promo between Jericho and Bret but I heard Bret say "I am a man of my word" and then went back on his word :S.

Edge vs Christian was awesome, so glad it got a clean finish, Christian got put over massively in that match. Why the fuck must Taker come in and ruin everything though?! I thought that we were gonna see a badass heel run from Edge, but then what happens? In comes Taker, makes him look like a fucking bitch!

The Batista/Mark Henry bit was pretty random, I hope this isn't indicating a main event run for Henry, that would be an epic failure.

I'm not too sure what to think of Bret winning the title, it's pretty stupid, I hope he doesn't actually become an active wrestler. That would just seem disrespectful to Hart, having to show his awful wrestling skills, why can't they just leave him to be a manager, or even the GM and then have done with it?

Loving Layla as champ, she might be working herself into the group of Divas that aren't completely useless. Can't wait for her face turn and eventual feud with McCool, man she is fucking annoying.

Hmmm, still not sure about the Fortunate Son angle, I was thinking, will DiBiase ever be able to break free of his father's shadow? It is obvious that Cody has but although what Ted is doing at the moment is midely entertaining he needs to make his own 'Legacy' so to speak.

Evan Bourne and Zack Ryder are getting regular spots on the card, good plan I'd say, just hope this develops into a possible PPV feud.

Randy Orton vs Swagger was awesome, can't really think of anything more to say. Swagger's title reign is getting over way more than Sheamus' did, perhaps WWE has learnt from their mistakes.

It is annoyingly obvious that Cena is gonna win at OTL, they chose the one match that the fans know Cena has no chance of losing. Cena vs Sheamus was a good match, in fact all the matches were good on Raw. Kinda predicted Batista getting involved, it's clear that they are saving the conclusion 'till their feud post Batsita. Overall good Raw.

OMG!! That was a long fucking post!

Also wasn't there a draft like 3 or 4 weeks ago? What's the point in a draft when Christian, Taker, Layla, and McShit were all on Raw this week?

Simply put...

Edge vs. Christian was awesome. Seriously amazing match. Really happy they made Christian look so good. Now can he PLEASE fucking challenge Swagger after Big Show?

Batista is THE shit. Seriously... he's too fucking bad ass right now. Not allowed to leave.

Miz losing to Bret Hart made me gag. I LOL'ed hard though when he busted his ass trying to climb the ropes. Yes, that is your US Champion.

I love Bret Hart. Not now, not by appearing in those overly booked shit bombs masquerading as wrestling matches.

I can't add anything else to Edge vs. Christian that hasn't already been said. Christian doesn't have anything to prove anymore. If he doesn't get a world title run, pack up and go back to TNA.

lol, Miz and Bret's match was a no DQ match......


As much as I fucking love Bret, it was very gay to have him win just because he was in Canada. I knew it would happen and I hoped they would prove me wrong but they didn't.

(Didn't see Raw and not likely to catch up....)

So what was the appearance of Taker all about?

Don't we even get a post-WM break from his momentum-crushing ways this year? :(

Orton and Edge had the deal where they chose each other opponents. Christian came out and Edge beat him. Then Orton came out and said he doesn't know why Christian is there because that's not who he picked. Taker's music hits. Edge gets purposely counted out without throwing a punch. Taker's not back yet though. He's only had 2 random matches since Mania. Vs Swagger and then the "match" with Edge. So we can still look forward to Taker burry the current champ on SD when he returns.

RAW was good last night, I absolutely LOVED Christian vs Edge, I'm starting to lose count at how many amazing Christian matches we've seen since his return. He's been on fire and its really a shame that he isn't being rewarded for his hard work. As for the Cena/Sheamus main event, it bored me to death I couldn't even finish it. I'm sick and tired of Cena doing the same old shit over and over again, he faces a heel who's been strong for the past month, then he beats that heel at the PPV in a match where the odds were completely stacked against him. I don't think this Hogan style booking works in 2010 and I'd love to see them change things up a bit. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
