Definitely the worst post-WM RAW I can remember of the past few years. I won't go over all of what was wrong with it, but I definitely have to call attention to the biggest WTF booking decision of all...
TWO TAG TEAM BATTLE ROYALS!
I mean seriously, I got the point of them (to create more heat w/ HBK and Cena while also getting the straps off of the team), but why did it take TWO long battle royal segments to get this angle over? What they wanted to accomplish (Michaels screwing Cena and the Hardys winning the belts) could have easily been done in ONE segment. Why did they waste time with two? All it did was bury the tag division more (by making Cena and HBK look far above it) and chew up airtime that could have been spent on other angles.

And really with the Hardys what tag team could beat them? They were competitive with the two best tag teams in the last twenty years in E&C and Dudleys. Name a team that could beat them. None thats who not even Londrick would seem legitimate in my opinion. Maybe a giant tag team but thats all. |

Yeah I didn't understand not having Cena and Micheals job out in a battle royal......christ, even Hogan in his heyday went over the top rope for the Twin Towers in a battle royal.

as I stated in another thread I have a feeling Londrick was supposed to win,
Mainly because the way Kendrick was eliminated looked like an accident to me... and since it was on camera blatantly they couldn't have him jump back in quickly.

If thats so(and its quite possible).....then this might turn into a good thing, with Hardys going against Londrick in a Tag Team Unification fight.

I can't count the "worst raw in years" claims on two hands... even harder to count the amount of people that have "quit watching forever".

I didn't say it was the worst RAW in years, just the worst post-WM one.

At least HBK kinda, almost dropped a title in the ring during a match to someone who wasn't his best pal.
That's a first.

I've noticed most of this year booking has been horrible on Raw.
They did that whole Cena/Michaels vs. Three Seperate Tag Teams a few weeks ago, and then they did that whole whoever beats the Intercontinental Champion gets a title shot at Wrestlemania angle and then out of nowhere Jeff dropped the belt to Umaga, I dunno nothing seems really thought through.

Remember when Eugene and Hacksaw lost a match to the Spirit Squad so they couldn't tag together anymore? Yeah, neither does the WWE

Cena and Michaels should have been pinned for the title.
It makes the other teams look weak if the only way HBKena can lose the titles is by one beating the other.
