I would like to be one of those people who is like I am not watching RAW for a couple weeks...But I know myself and I will but just might not be watching it live if their is something better to do.

Overall, a good show. I was there live, and was disappointed with the lack of pyro and new tron, but when they almost burn the place down, what are you gonna do? Happy that all my signs made it on camera. Text ones are hard to read, but the Cornette face was pretty clear. You can see it next to Punk's head as he walks up the ramp the last time.
Too many recaps. I would have felt better about it if HHH came out and did a rambling promo for 20 minutes if it would have kept the recaps at one apiece. Naomi and Camryn are way hotter in person. I was so glad to see Sandow interrupt the Brodus Clay segment. Matches were solid top to bottom, and the show didn't really drag, except for all the damn recaps. I know there was a fire earlier. I can see the scorch marks on the minty fresh new tron. Now I just wish ADR would have driven to the arena. Incidentally, I like his new attire.

I liked this Raw. Recording it instead of watching live has helped that though as I was able to skip the recaps. Loved the Bryan/Sheamus and Vitamin C/Miz and Ziggler, Punk's explanation and all of Bryan's backstage segments. Also happy to see Kidd make an appearance as well as Sandow. If they can give me one or two great matches each week, il be fine with the 3 hours. The crowd was great as well
EDIT: Punk calling out Lawler on numerous occasions was also excellent

It's all leading towards Cena/Rock II for the WWE Championship, which the Rock will hold until Wrestlemania. Then, we'll see Cena/Rock III with Cena going over in the Main Event and finally getting one over on the Rock. The boyhood dream and so forth... I don't see the doing that at all. They wouldn't waste two episodes of RAW and the big summer angle on Rock/Punk without Rock wrestling Punk at Royal Rumble. If I told you a few months ago the payoff to Bryan/Punk/AJ was GM AJ, would you have believed me?

The 15 minute matches are a big upside if they can find a way to do it without totally killing PPV dead. There have been some good matches over the last week since they went to 5 hours a week instead of 4.
