I actually really enjoyed the ending. It’s new, refreshing and it adds suspense for next week's show. Plus it opens up a HHH/Orton match at Judgment Day and perhaps a stipulation. The match itself was too slow thought for me and had a few too many restholds, but the cliffhanger ending more than made up for it. The other things on RAW were pretty good as well....
-Kennedy/Regal (The promo between these 2 kinda of made me feel like it was Austin/McMahon for a bit. Maybe a bad comparison, but I enjoyed the segment quite a bit.)
-HBK/Jericho Highlight Reel
-Burchill
-Team Respect/Team Sanlito
-Piper/Santino Segment
-JBL/Cena Feud Opener
The Best For Last....
* Murdoch Randomly Singing
I marked out pretty hard for that. He's not a bad singer at all.
The only thing meh was the 12 women tag clusterfuck once again, other than that it was a really good and entertaining RAW. My thumbs up
EDIT- Oh, and for anyone in the SB that read my comment about WWE production being shitty, that was obviously a mistake. I got up to take a piss right after Orton catapulted Trips into the turnbuckle, and when I came back, there was a black screen and JR and King were commentating, then it went off. So obviously I thought the production crew fucked up, only to later realized the Regal deal. So sorry bout that bit
