That was both the worst thing ever and the best thing ever all at the same time.

okay so i found words again somewhere in there.
they were found somewhere behind tears.

let's review what happened to JR thus far tonight.

- HHH buries him (and everyone else for that matter) so hard that he's actually boo'd in his home state when he comes out. they actually boo'd him.

- johnny ace becomes in charge. in the process, 20 minutes later, he fires jr.


cornette.
i need your face.

I changed the channel the second JR was fired for the hundredth time. I might be done with WWE for the time.

At least I have ROH to watch now.

man they should've pushed the Triple H show for one week

I actually would've enjoyed a poorly run show where it seemed like everyone was having fun (especially punk)

I don't really know what the big issue is. If you somehow expected for it to literally be a show with three people, well... I don't know what to tell you. It was obvious everybody was going to come back tonight, and other than the JR thing, this has basically been... A normal RAW.

I wouldnt mind Cena vs Sheamus, Punk vs Orton and HHH vs Show in three 20-30 minute matches with clips of them camping outside throughout and then it ending with them coming back or something

Woo Woo Woo! You Know It!

I agree that would have been better, as it'd have sold the walk-out more... But I'm not at all surprised they didn't do that, for ratings reasons. And while I don't think this is a GOOD Raw at all, I don't at all find it offensive like everybody else seems to.

Down with Zhang. Let there be Biscuit!

the issue with th eraw boiled down to hhh and matches that weren't matches.
too much politics for the sake of politics.
too much hhh being hhh.

only good parts were punk and cody.

It wasn't totally awful but it wasn't great either. I am kind of surprised the ending featured Punk and HHH fighting off Awesome Truth though, I was expecting Hunter to take them both out single handedly.

Doing so at this point requires a heel turn. I doubt he's gonna do that when he's already over as hell.

Not really. Much like pedigreeing Zack Ryder for no reason, he could do it and just have the announcers go 'Oh that wacky HHH'

--
We are thought, and reality, and concept, and the unimaginable

There's quite a difference between doing it to Ryder and then doing it to Cena/Punk/Sheamus.

--

I'd like to think that maybe hearing the audience be kind of not thrilled with him doing it to Ryder would be enough to make him not do stuff like it again.

Of course, it probably will just tell him to do it much more because the people clearly don't like him enough yet.
