Finally! A RAW Worth Watching!

Mimi · Jan 5, 2004

My God! How long has it been since we've had this much entertainment value packed into a single episode of RAW? Since there have been multiple 'laugh out loud' moments around every turn? From Triple H's hilarious "Sheriff" rant directed at Austin, to Austin chasing Teddy Long around the ring and then backstage on the seat of a 4-wheeler, to May Young stepping out of the shower and exposing her naked 80 year old body to a sickened and teriffied Jerico, to Coach bouncing clear off his chair and falling backward in shock when Kane's pyro went off announcing his enterance. Lazzy and I have hardly stopped laughing all evening, and it's not over yet (though I doubt they will carry the humor element into the main event).

Man, I can only hope they maintain this momentum for a while. It's been too long since WWE has put this much effort into any of their shows, and it's being reflected in their ratings (last weeks RAW was beat by two reruns of Spongebob, and tied a rerun of the Amanda Show). I'm crossing my fingers that McMahon pulled his head out of his rectum for at least a little while, and that tonight will be a sign of things to come.

P.S. Did anyone catch that move Mark Henry pulled on RVD, setting him on the ropes, and then sliding right through, taking RVD along with his 500lbs frame? Both Lazzy and I have a suspicion that was a seriously screwed up move. If so, I hope RVD is not hurt at all from that stunt. I actually covered my eyes when it happened. OUCH!!

Too funny...

(Mimi hasn't laughed this hard since I broke her 5 times the other day....)

This was one of the more entertaining RAW's in awhile, Ann and I also enjoyed it as well. I would've like to hear more Lawler comments after Mae Young flashed Jericho, and maybe see Coach get knocked on his ass at the end of the show. His fall backwards at Kane's entrance was hysterical.
It looked like Steven Richards really might've hurt his shoulder when Test threw him into the ringpost. We thought we heard a crunch.
Notice during Kane's speech where said there wasn't a "soul alive" who could beat him? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Yes! Throughout Kane's entire speech I just kept saying "I wonder if they're setting up for a Kane/OLD SCHOOL Taker feud!"

It was nice getting EXCITED last night, instead of fighting sleep, as has become the norm lately.

And gawd yeah, Lazzy and I (since we recorded RAW) went back and watched Coach flipping backward out of his chair about 3 times in a row. Man that was hilarious. Although I did laugh just as hard when HHH asked Austin if he had a plastic belt with little cap guns to go with his badge...hehehe

yeah, that's what is gonna happen, the old Taker coming back, should be by Rumble time. That was one of the funniest RAW's in years. Triple H's rant was hilarious too, and i kept rewinding the Jericho vignette, too damn funny, I bet Trish was laugher her ass off too. Hope Vince has the sense to keep up this momentum, but knowing him he'll find a way to screw that up too. Keep your fingers crossed. Today I will be talking to one of my sources, and I will keep you all updated😀

it was better than many of them

but there was still too darn much cheating!
that really ruins it for me.
i also noticed kane's remark of burying undertaker alive didn't get even a coment!
that move by mark henry on rvd, was scarry! i too thought oh shit, that wasn't suposed to go like that! i hope he's ok.

RVD vs. Mark Henry

Yeah, I caught that 'oopsie' during that match. From what I've heard, both of them can get a little dangerous in their matches. Man, can you imagine having Mark fall on YOU? lololololololo
