You know they're running out of time tonight...not going to be much of a closing segment.

Anyone else feel like this Raw started off with a Bang, and then just kind of slowed down, quite a bit?

A little bit but if the main event segment is really good, this would be an overall terrific show.

Agreed...but they're running out of show.

That doesn't really matter. They haven't done it lately, but they used to go 25 minutes overtime. They can go 10, 15 minutes tonight and it wouldn't be out of the norm.

Oh yeah I know...I just don't want a really rushed ending.

You're right, they can go late, and they have a good opportunity to end the show on a High Note and have a Great Raw tonight.

Yeah, I doubt they'll end it right at 8. I think we can have a really good 15 minutes here and it wouldn't feel rushed. Looking forward to it.

Maybe it's just me but I miss hearing Cole say at the beginning of a Smackdown when it was on Thursdays, "we are just 72 hours away, 3 days from Wrestlemania!!". Got me so pumped for the show and for the upcoming PPV.

Yeah, dude, the early days of SmackDown! were the shit. A lot of times I would like it more than RAW that week. They didn't intentionally try to make it the B show. Back when Michael Cole actually seemed to care. That definitely used to pump me up for a PPV. Now it's rare I see SmackDown before the PPV.

That's what Eve Marie should be wearing to the ring...

Never understood why they make Oksana and Eve Marie put on Wrestling gear that covers them.


And the Shield standing guard. Just go ahead and bring out Orton, Kane, and The Wyatt's, and let's get this show on the row.

If that's true HHH, then why is Cena the face of the company? Lulz


Still don't think Orton is a great overall talent. Maybe it's just me.

Say what you want about the WWE product, but the Triple H/Orton deal is quite intriguing. I'm diggin' it

I agree, it has spiced up television, and the involvement of so many stars will hopefully spread out and lead up to a big 'Mania card.

Agreed. Shit, in 2002, Smackdown was seemingly the A show. They had the tremendous "Smackdown Six", excellent storylines, angles, characters, etc. All around an entertaining product.

I don't know if anyone noticed but right before Steph and Hunter walked down the ramp, HHH was playing with El Torito's mask hair. The little things! :lol:
