One more knock on RAW... Where was Ric Flair? You know, the guy who cut a hell of a promo last week? The man who will have to retire the next time he loses a match? They were in South Carolina (which is still Flair country) and they don't have him on the show?

And here's some spoilers, for ya... He won't be on SD or ECW! What was the purpose of doing the Flair storyline if they were going to put in the backburner after just one week?

Wade Keller is reporting that one of the reasons for Ric Flair not being mentioned on RAW last night is that he may be returning to SmackDown to continue the retirement storyline. However, Flair was not part of Sunday night’s SmackDown/ECW taping in Florence, South Carolina. With him not being mentioned on RAW, this still may be an indication that he’ll end up on SmackDown where the retirement angle will continue with Vince McMahon with perhaps a match getting booked for WWE’s upcoming Armageddon pay-per-view. There has definitely been a change of plans and it's not likely a good thing. Stay tuned.

Yeah I saw this on the Torch. I ignored it because it basically says Flair was not on Raw (duh) and won't be on ECW or SD. Other than that we know jack shit.

Thats quite possibly the most worthless report I've ever read. I mean if he was actually at the Smackdown or ECW tapings then that would be something, but since he wasn't that report is completely worthless to me and tells me nothing more than I already knew: Ric Flair wasn't at Raw! haha

"Glad you could make it", lol at Kennedy.

This was a fine Raw, altough it will only get better, as the top feuds of the show are only starting, and I feel that the Jeff Hardy vs Triple H feud will be even better their match up in Armageddon. It is also nice to see they are actually giving Mr. Kennedy nice segment time to remind us of his mic skills, not only have him introduce himself and either squash Super Crazy or job to a main eventer. Hell, he even managed to save one of the lows points of the shows because the whole fake Diesel and fake Razor Ramon was shit, if it wasn't for Kennedy.

I liked the show overall. Not the best show I've ever seen, but definitely not the worst. Overall I would say its above average. I agree the crowd was terrible last night. In both of his return matches Jericho was wrestled in front of a lack luster crowd and that really hurts his matches and makes them less entertaining. I hope the crowd next week steps it up, because I thought his match with Umaga was really good, but the crowd just wasn't into it.

I don't know if you or anyone else noticed but there was a guy in the front row who wasn't even looking at the match.....he was staring in the direction of the commentators table...the crowds have sucked big time in these last two weeks

I thought the Raw with Cena and HBK going an hour was way better. Mostly because I do like when shows go overseas. But this was a good one, especially with the APA coming back.

I loved it! Maybe not THE best in recent years, but definatly up there. APA coming back was simply amazing. Would be nice to use them in 2 or 3 matches as a vitamin shot for the tag team division.

I thought RAW was abit dull and the surprises seemed a bit forced, you won't see a surprising kick ass show before the big one this Monday.
