Shac can u do that gif over with it starting with Shelton on the top rope it starts too late to see how good both guys timed it. I wish i could. That's the only gif i found. If i find the extended version, i'll let ya know or post it.

HBK/Shelton was hands down the best match I've seen this year.

smackdown will be hard pressed to top raw this week. from top to bottom that was one of the better raws in a year or two. just when i was starting to really get tired of raw, they pulled out all the stops.

I marked out when they played HBKS music as the mystery opponent. in fact mystery opponents rule anyway. its like the rumble.

what i wanted to know was if "even the talent doesn't know who or when they are wrestling" how was michaels coming down the ramp 2 seconds after his music hit decked in his full attire?
don't answer that.

Amazing match, and if you can find somethng not to be happy about with it, I don't think wrestling has entertained you for a very long time.

no Eric told the 8 guys individually they where in it. geez even Jericho knew he was in it. the question should be why was jericho NOT in his gear and warmed up when he was talking to Benji?

Damn good match, and it was actually better than everything that was on the actual PPV the night before. Give him a few more years, and Shelton will only get bigger and better, I think.

Bischoff should have just told him to eat shit.

true but on air jim ross doesn't have any pull. Eric Bischoff is supposed to be the man in charge.

It is hard to ignore's Benjamin's matches of late, every match starting with wrestlemania he has been amazing to watch.

Whoever said they'd rather see straight wrestling matches and no storylines than vice versa....why would you want to watch a bunch of fake fighting with no point behind any of it?
Shelton sure is a good fake figher but he isn't very entertaining at all.

Did you even WATCH that match last night? He pulled off some pretty amazing moves last night. If that doesn't get the crowd on their feet, I dunno what will.

Shelton v HBK is Raw match of the year so far in my opinion . . .

It is hard to ignore's Benjamin's matches of late, every match starting with wrestlemania he has been amazing to watch. Don't forget those series of matches leading up to MOney in the bank. Everyone was praising Benoit vs. Benjamin for that 5 minute match they had on Raw, and that tope/somersault he did over the top rope on all the guys in that six man tag. As for the Batista/Bischoff thing, it's because Batista was right there, and Bischoff was just scared Batista was gonna kick his ass right there in the locker room infront of Christy. But yeah Benjamin really needs to work on his mike skills. When he was in developmental and dark matches, I heard so much praise for this guy and how charismatic he was. I guess they were talking about his physical/in ring charisma that hogan/cena/austin/Angle had, seeing as how he's held my interest despite saying very little over the last year and won me over purely on his in ring performance. Speaking of which, what was up with that interview? he seemed like a giddy college kid all full of smiles and just rubbing up on maria like she was one of his buddies he runs into just getting out of after class. Didn't seem like a wrestling interview, just two buddies talking at a party or something.

That Maria/Shelton segment backstage last night made me long for a Tito Santana promo.

Shelton put on 2 amazing matches, 2 nights in a row. But he did have help from HBK and Y2J my 2 favorite wrestlers in WWE ever.
