I cannot beleive that they are rushing this Orton-HHH feud. A slow build to the break-up would have been much better. Feuds with Jericho and Edge. A PPV re-match with Benoit. Then HHH.

I guess I should have seen it coming when they rushed the re-match. It could have been a WM main event. I guess it still might be. I could see. HHH regaining the title shortly and Orton having to win the RR to get a shot at WM.

Way too fast. No Eugene or Regal tonight. More Diva crap. More Kane/Lita junk. And once again, HHH is at the top of the show. Does somebody else get a turn for more than one month?

A very disappointing Raw.

(The match itself was excellent)

Well,they probably took one look at the ratings last week and decided to pull the trigger on making the Big Turn go towards warp 9. And,they probably blamed 3 people(or groups of people)for the ratings:Eugene...Regal...and the Divas.

But,at least the E has now awakened to the fact that no one cares about the contest:they didn't hype the hell out of it. Just let it die a quiet death. (And they turned down the crowd sound...I'd have loved to be in the John Labatt Centre in London,Ont. to hear the crowd's reaction.) Funny...every other diva wanted to see Carmella go bye bye bye-plus she no showed the Dodgeball bit for Summer Slam. (I have to applaud her,though...at least SHE knew it would suck beyond words. Besides,she has one up on the rest of the wannabe-divas:they haven't come to the defense of an NFL QB;she has. In other words... :pfbbt: :blurp: )

Edge is showing flashes of his future bad guy turn.
I guess he'll be next to join Evolution. Edge vs Jericho continues. I'm looking forward to seeing Orton vs HHH. I saw it coming as soon as Batista raised him up on his shoulders. Too predictable.
I guess this also means Benoit will probably end up teaming up with Orton to fued with Evolution. Benoit is left without anyone to fued with now that Orton is a good guy. Batista? They've had matches, but not a real fued.
I just hope Benoit is not pushed down and forgotten like many others. He has established himself as a bonafied main event guy already.

A great RAW. I cannot believe Evolution turned on Orton so quickly. I loved how they kept Orton in a heel roll at the beginning of the show.

Edge should turn soon.

This Kane/Lita marriage angle and diva crap is terrible. I'm looking forward to HBK's return.

When I read that they shook hands,I figured they do something quick. Then of course,The Game giving Randy the talk...that shouldve been an easy giveaway. Not really surprised,but lets hope they dont screw this up now.

Its pretty simple math really:

Raw + HHH - Eugene & Regal = $hi+

They have to make a big move, these ratings are approaching crisis status. Benoit has to be moved from the top, a Triple H/Orton fued is an attention grabber, at least for a few shows. They must build on their other stories as well. Kane/Lita will really dominate the show next week, which sucks.

A short-term fix is not what the company needs. And some of the bad ratings have came with HHH on top too.

Maybe what they need is some new faces at the top and for them to stay awhile without the old faces showing up.

I have been a die hard wrestling fan since i was a lil tike... and i have stopped watching once i heard steve austin was being taken off..... he was a big reason why i kept watching this watered-down wrestling. Triple H this.... Triple H that... these are just more reasons why i dont watch anymore. If someone wins the title.. you bet triple h will get first crack at him. Triple H does put people over.. but he pops up every time.. EVERY TIME. I use to hate hulk hogan for this stuff.... but triple h has him beat. I honestly can't wait til Triple H is washed up and broken like Hogan.. and see him try and be a top card "champ" again. He'll sink like a rock..err.. i mean a hogan. New faces... new names.. new blood. That is what WWE needs.. and get rid of Smackdown! as well.. that is even more watered down then RAW is. If they dont do something soon and listen to fans ..... the WWE will turn into the XFL.

I’m not a HHH fan but I would take him any day over Austin limping around the ring for 30 mins every Monday night. I’m glad Austin is gone. His gimmick is stale.
