Rating Raw is really just a algebraic equation, where you give points for all the things that equal a good show, and deduct those that fail every time. The equation is as follows:
(H+P+M+D)-(A+G+S+F+Z+2)
explanation:
So it comes out to a -9! What an awe-inspiring show from WWE tonight, so glad people got to miss that Monday Night game for such and amazing Raw. You simply can't see television like this anywhere else.
(H+P+M+D)-(A+G+S+F+Z+2)
explanation:
Good:
H: Hell No appearances: 2 (opener and opening match ran together)
P: Punk segments: 2
M: Other meaningful segments: 3 (The main event, Miz TV, and Ryback squashing Otunga)
D: 2-point bonus for Ziggler doing something meaningful: 0
Bad:
A: AJ Lee Appearances: 1
G: Sheamus Appearances (G for Get the fuck off my TV): 1
S: Santino appearances or other stupid shit: 2 (R-Truth talking to Little Jimmy)
F: Filler garbage that did nothing for nobody, weren't entertaining, or buried promising talent: 8 (The opener, the Show/Bryan match, ADR squashing Brodus, Cesaro vs Gabriel, Kane vs Striker, SuperSheamus vs Barrett, Rhodes Scholars vs Primico, Miz vs Kofi right before Main Event and probably a PPV match)
Z: 2 point penalty for making Ziggler look like shit: 2
2: 2 point penalty for Raw still being 3 hours: 2
H: Hell No appearances: 2 (opener and opening match ran together)
P: Punk segments: 2
M: Other meaningful segments: 3 (The main event, Miz TV, and Ryback squashing Otunga)
D: 2-point bonus for Ziggler doing something meaningful: 0
