All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Get this shit off my TV. It's really too bad since the show seemed to start better than the last few weeks, stupid "big announcement" and terrible hardy promo aside, and then it goes to shit with the diva search once again. Or should I say, went from crap to shit, since the Conway/Venis match sucked too. Yeah, great gimmick, Rob. :p

I think after all this time I'm finally losing my taste for WWE to the point that I no longer really care about watching it now. The HBK promo was great though, as true as it seemed to be, that is. :)

If Carlito wins, this Raw would own all others before it...i have a feeling a Brock run in wouldn't be a shock...who knows ;)

That other ref had ninja-like speed... I glanced away from the screen and he's already in the ring and up to "two".

Yeah, seriously. Fastest ref replacement EVER. Was he under the ring or something? :lol

oh, and that weird twirling slam thing Cena did halfway through the match? WTF was JR doing calling it a modified Powerbomb? :lol

We need animated GIFS of that HBK segment. Especially the posing.

If I may ask, can someone make me an animated GIF of HBK from near the end of the promo, where he starts posing and grunting (right before the cramp) to the superkick on the Larry King fake? :lol And make it avatar size, please. :)

The Superkick to the camera..WTF??!?!?

That was sooo freakin cheesy!

The rest was pretty good. Besides the fact that the fake Larry King didn't really sell the Superkick.

Not only that, did they have to play that cheesy music after the kick? Are we supposed to be scared? :lol

Raw is so bad that its now ten times more entertaining to read the weekly Raw thread here and over at Operation Sports than it is to actually tape Raw and watch.

Or maybe you guys are just that good.

Pretty much the only thing worth watching was the HBK promo. RAW is fucking atrocious and Smackdown is still somehow worse.

Next week's RAW has the potential to go from fucking terrible to merely mediocre, though. Angle and Eugene will be good(for fuck's sakes, though, give them more than 3 minutes you shitgobblers), hopefully Matt Hardy can have a fucking match with someone, more HBK goodness is assured and by default there will be less Diva horseshit since there are less of them around(see I just used logic there and it will no doubt come around to bite me in the ass but oh well what the fuck).

It saddens me that one of the top three wrestlers in the ring today, bar none (HBK, Angle, Benoit) will have to carry the orange goblin with three "moves" through Summerslam. So sad..

Promo's probably one of the best I've seen post-Rock :lol :lol BROTHER!

I guess Im the only one who thought HBK's promo was retarded.

I thought it was retarded as well. I would have just preferred they go straight to the tribute video. Have HBK walk to the ring, show the video, then ask Hogan how could he ever think he could compete with that, drop the mic and then go to the back.

That would have been better...but still, anything that mocks someone else is always good in my book.

The reason most enjoyed Michaels' promo is that he was in full on DX mode, which is what they've been begging for the second he turned heel.

so..... about that Conway vs Venis match...

um, yeah... well.

Jesus H. Christ Vince, what the fuck are you thinking with this Conway character? Wow, this is BAD.

Even Bagwell didn't have THAT much baggage, excluding his Mom on a pole.

At least the crowd let them know they hated what was going on.

BTW, Bish if you are reading this.. I need a tag.

Perferrably

haha. I watched the promo on my comp just now, and I cracked up again, even though I'd already seen it twice.

Truly a great promo.

Heh, just watched HBK's promo now. That was hilarious. It's about time Michaels embraced his heel side fully...now all we need are some salacious cracks about Brooke and we're in BIZNESS BABY

During the Shelton/Big Show vs. Chris Masters/Snitsky match, Masters attempted a sidewalk slam on Shelton Benjamin. Instead of sitting down, he just dropped Shelton awkwardly to the mat. I didn’t think it was possible to botch a sidewalk slam, but he managed. Kevin Nash, Heidenrich, Tyson Tomko are all officially better than Chris Masters. No wonder his only move to that point was the Master Lock.

watch as the creative geniuses turn that into a real move...


it'll be his 'setup' move...
THE MASTERDROP


then after they fall, he creeps up behind them for... THE MASTERLOCK!!!
