Miz wins the US Title. Great match.

REALLY good Raw tonight. I enjoyed all of it, I really did.

Big Ben and his O-Line did a great job tonight. They looked legitimately happy as hell to be there. It's great to see those guys having fun.

[Jobasfistpump62]

Agreed Twist. Hopefully this JeriShow DX feud gives us at least 1 HBK/Jericho match. Those will never get old.

Yes, that was a PPV main event we saw tonight.

Michaels and Y2J in the same ring is always golden. Add in the Big Show and HHH -- you're going to have a good program with these guys.

Kind of surprised there was no mention of Legacy. I'm guessing creative is biding time with them. Since their feud with DX looks to be over, where do they go from here? Only option I see is a breakup. They've been teasing it with both Cody and Ted the past few weeks or so.

Also, I'm happy to see Miz have the belt now. I'm a big fan of his. I really think the US title scene has the most talent going right now, and they've been putting on good matches. The Kofi title reign was starting to get a bit stale. This was the right time for a new person to hold the belt for a while.

I'm happy to have the Miz with the belt too. Kofi was OK as champ, but I think the belt will get risen since Miz gets mic time. Miz will talk that title up to be great, much like Jericho did.

I think the biggest thing to come out of tonight though was Jack Swagger's promo. If you missed it, he said he would be going undefeated for the rest of the year. This obviously means that creative is going to build him. Keep giving him win after win. The guy is a future world champion, no doubt in my mind.

I'd love to see a good decent length HBK VS Big Show match. I think HBK could have an entertaining and unique match with him, but I'd like to see it without a quick DQ or tons of outside interference.

[Vic Mackey]

Raw was alot of fun. The energy in the building when DX was out there was insane.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Man, that was one hell of a match between HHH and Cena there.

Not only that, but we also get Jericho vs. HBK? Christ... this is PPV caliber.

Plus Santino dressed up like Charlie Brown... my goodness this Raw rocks.

[Twistaeffect2008]

bahahahahaha... Marty Jannetty vs. Miz

And he's in the worst wrestling outfit I've ever seen. Seriously... there's no vintage Rockers gear lying around somewhere? Christ.

[Twistaeffect2008]

That was a freakin fantastic Raw. IMO, one of the best of the year.

We got HHH vs. Cena which was honestly, very, very good. We're also seeing some tension between DiBiase and Orton which will eventually lead to a face turn. The crowd guy behind him tremendously, and he did a great job showing how much it pained him not to stand up to Orton through his facial expressions.

They're also quietly building Cody Rhodes into a legitimate heel without the use of Legacy.

I thought Snoop Dogg was very good, and I actually thought Hornswoggle was funny tonight as well. Also.. is Eve Torres not the hottest diva since Trish Stratus? Holy shit she's gorgeous.

The clusterfuck to end the show was awesome too. I love the dynamic they were getting there. It's funny... Cryme Tyme is the top face tag team in the WWE (other than DX of course) and even they were booed. It's weird seeing guys like Swagger cheered, and them booed, but it sort of makes you feel that the brand is bigger than the wrestler which brings some importance to the match this Sunday. (although it's very predictable). I do like that guys like McIntyre and Escobar are getting a chance to prove themselves with such big names in this match.

Also... did Kofi drop his Jamaican accent by accident tonight? Or is this scripted? Maybe they're dropping the Jamaican gimmick? I found that really odd. But honestly, if they let him talk, he can be much more entertaining. Great wrestler with a great style and personality.. but he needs to talk.

Great Raw.. honestly loved just about every second of it.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Also... when's the last time anyone got the heat Vickie Guerrero does?

[Vic Mackey]

Very good Raw, Snoop was an excellent host.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Looks like Kofi is getting his main event rub. He just destroyed Orton's nascar after Orton earlier in the show attacked Kofi.

Great stuff... dropping the Jamaican accent is going to propel him. He's actually a decent talker.

I'm looking forward to Kofi vs. Orton. It's something different, and the crowd dug Kingston.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Also looks like Swagger/Miz/Bourne might be starting a program together. With Eve involved to boot.

This Raw has been good so far.

[Jobasfistpump62]

This has been fantastic so far. It looks like they're really trying to build people up.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Holy fuck.... Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne are hosting next week.


Wow.. Sheamus has been moved to Raw. I have a hard time understanding him, but I love his look.

[Twistaeffect2008]

Back to back tremendous Raws.

I look forward to trying to understand Ozzy speak next week. Those vignettes are gonna have to be taped. No way he can be out there live. Maybe Sharon will take most of the verbal workload.

[KyleLitke]

I thought that was a really good ending. I liked the whole "Raw locker room working together", and it made Show look like more of a monster to have taken a bunch of hits from a bunch of guys, including multiple finishers, and still be standing until the pedigree finally put him down.

[Vic Mackey]

He's gotta hit the tanning booth though. He's white as chalk.

Snoop was an excellent host, figured he would be. The Kofi dropping the accents gotta be scripted. It seems like they wanna push him and that accent was corny as hell.
