8D [MENTION=547]Dale[/MENTION] and [MENTION=488]STALKIN'[/MENTION] giving up on Raw? Seems like it. They at least gave up on the live thread.

Curtis Micheal Axel Joe McGillicutty Henning needs new music already.

I'm so calling him shit like this for the rest of his career. I hope he gets another nickname soon so it will sound even more ludicrous than it already does.

Didn't watch. Will watch tmw. Seems like a good show. Glad Curtis Axel is the 3rd man.

I certainly didn't expect to see McGillicutty vs. Triple H in the main event when I tuned in last night. I don't mind him the new addition to Heyman's group though. I've never been that high on him, but I hope that he's improved a lot since his last stint on Raw. I quiet like his new name too.

As for the main event itself, well... yeah, that was pretty crap. If they want to do yet another Triple H injury angle then fine, do it, but why not do it in a way that makes Axel look strong? It was the perfect opportunity for them to have him beat down on Triple H and put him out for a while, yet for some reason they decided to go with something totally stupid. Sure, this now makes Lesnar look even stronger, but it could have made Axel look stronger as well if they had him beat Triple H. I hope that they'll at least go somewhere interesting with this, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

On a side note, how good was that 6-man tag last night? If 2013 is remembered for anything, it'll be that 6-man tag team matches became really fun to watch.

Nice to see Mcgillicutty finally get a new gimmick and a new name. Terrible way to end his first match though, at least let him give HHH a beat down to close to show rather than just having HHH unable to continue due to what happened the night before. Hopefully Heyman can continue his fantastic track record and turn him into something special.

Going to have to watch that six man match tomorrow, sounds like a quality match.

Nice to see all the attention about him on the ep. Lol at Big E. I swear he'd be very over if he was a face.

Meltzer has said numerous times that the eventual plan is to turn Langston babyface, hatred.

I dunno why I only just remembered, but John Cena wasn't even on the show. Kind of makes the whole angle of him getting off the stretcher even more baffling.

Possible they're actually goign to give him a week or two off. Though extremely odd that we had a show with no heavyweight champions.
