I know Jericho makes them look like crap but the Walls of Boston are not a minor move... Hee hee hee, Walls of Boston. Excellent.

Isn't Jericho getting beaten up kinda the point of Jerishow. He has an over inflated sense of the team because he thinks he is awesome but it's Big Show that does most of the dominating.
Also it was implied that HBK would lose if HHH hadn't interfered and broke up the walls

I've seen maybe a total of an hour and a half of WWE programming in the last two months but what I saw was fine. Triple H didn't bury Jericho, even if he did pin him for the millionth time. It doesn't really hurt Jericho's credibility I just think its funny at this point how many times hes jobbed to Triple H...even though I despise Hunter and Jericho is my all time favorite.

Is it really the best move to have the most dominant tag team in your company lose in the middle of the ring to DX? Is it even the best move to have this match on Raw and not wait until a ppv with some good build up? I know this is WWE and thay are awful at booking logically and blah blah blah, but come on. These guys have a ton of momentum on their side and are the team to beat, while steam-rolling the competition but the DX team that was in the "most grueling match ever!" last night goes over on a healthy Jerishow team on Raw main event? Logic? Because these two tag teams will scrap until it's for the titles, which DX will win. Chances are DX get beat down, then JeriShow, and so forth. Just standard operating procedure.

Was anyone really surprised by this outcome? I saw it as soon as the DX music hit. DX+ Guest host (well except Dusty)+ buncha football guys = Jerilose.

The only way it was ok for DX to win last night is if they now have a PPV match for the titles and Jerishow wins when it really counts

Tag team logic is just fine until they have the AUDACITY to have Jericho lose! Where's that Batista crying gif?

I've never understood this obsession with Jericho HAVING to get a pin or look better than Triple H. I also don't understand the problem with establishing that one guy is just plain superior to another. ...and I dont see why Triple H has to pin Jericho every single time they are involved in a match together. If the outcome is always the same there is no point in even watching. If, say, Rock had always been established as superior to HHH with almost no chance of losing anytime they wrestled it would have made it feel like a waste of time anytime they squared off. If something like Triple H owning Jericho any chance he gets is THAT glaringly obvious its a problem, IMO. At the very least its bad booking. When two ME guys are in the ring there should at least be SOME doubt in my mind as to the outcome. I dont really care that DX beat Jerishow though. As long as Jerishow keep the titles they can lose non title matches all they want. I AM, however, pretty tired of Jericho being jobbed out in singles matches. Maybe its just selective memory but it sure feels like he loses a lot. Anytime he wins one anymore I feel surprised.

I watched it to see how Big Ben would do (I am from Pittsburgh and this was my first Raw watch in awhile...) and there was nothing offensive to me about how it was ended. Definately sent the crowd home happy, and didn't really do any damage to the champions, given HBK and HHH are higher on the heirarchy and everyone knows that.
Also, it was a damn good match, in my opinion.

Also it was implied that HBK would lose if HHH hadn't interfered and broke up the walls I don't think that is the point. It isnt Santino teaming with The Big Show. Jericho is a former multiple time World Champion and has over the last 18 months been by far the best heel in the company racking up clean wins over Batista and Shawn Michaels amongst others. Jericho can handle himself is what I am saying so I don't think the dynamic of the team is that Jericho is the weak one whilst Big Show does all the work.

You need to have DX qualify for their title shot somehow...and if they don't go after the tag titles, no longer term damage done to JeriShow either.
No conspiracy theory (or VICTIM!) here either.

It's not about being weak, it's about his character. His character is a sleaze, a coward, and a hypocrite himself. He talks a big game, but will run away if he gets into trouble. Big Show is the one who will kick your ass regardless.

WWE is the biggest wrestling company in the world. They understood how to 'book logically' better than any of us. WWE's buyrates have also been on the downslide lately, which suggests otherwise. A bigger company does not necessarily mean better booking.

Well if that's the case, don't end the show with that match. End it with Taker and Punk. That was the original plan. Undertaker asked management if their match could go on first instead, since he was still in bad shape and didn't feel he could close the show.
