I prefer Raws lately that rely on the silly and less on the serious, because mainly their serious has sucked for a long time.
And this one certainly worked that way

Seems like I ended up missing a truly memorable RAW. I'm sad, now

Seems like I ended up missing a truly memorable RAW. I'm sad, now There were a number of people who didn't tune in because they read the spoilers and didn't think it was a show of any substance. How wrong they were

I missed it because I was en route to my parents for Christmas, and I don't have cable at home, so I can't watch there, either.

Del Rio throwing a teddy bear at Cena like it was a grenade was the greatest f***ing thing ever. that and "...SSSSSANNNNTTTAAAAAAA!!!" Even funnier was how it harmlessly bounced off of Cena, who just looked on.

Possibly the greatest Raw I have seen in a long time. I just love how they be serious the rest of the time yet the one time they have fun they go all out. The tree falling on Santa made it even funnier along with the Santa chants

Not just the Santa storyline, but the Kane/Bryan segment too.
"Thanks, I'm STARVING!"

It was awesome. I hope WWE do goofy stuff like this more often because really, SRS WWE is hit or miss whereas goofyness is usually good. Like the Muppets Raw, any of Kane's goofy storylines, Swagger and his soaring eagle etc. Screw becoming more SRS, become goofier. I want a superhero gimmick to return and have a full feud with a supervillain... complete with comic book effects such as "BAM!" and "WHACK!" flashing up on the screen during the match Instead of a generic GM I want someone to become a full on dictator complete with General uniform or an evil King. Goofyness is good in wrestling.

I think it's great that WWE writers had a newly turned face run over Santa. Not to undo his face turn, but to MAKE HIM MORE OF A FACE.
How does that come up in a meeting?
Writer 1: "Was thinking Del Rio could start being more friendly to fans, smile more to start"
Writer 2: "I guess, that's kinda played out though. Maybe if he had some dancing segments, it'd look funny with Del Rio and the fans might get behind it"
Writer 3: "I think Del Rio should run over Santa."
Writer 4: "Maybe, but what if....wait what?"

Even little things like Teddy saying "Hey, you don't know me like that" to Brad Maddox was hilarious.
Did they get an all new writing staff? Did Foley have a lot of creative input since he loves Christmas so much? How could they make something so great from top to bottom and something so shit every other week?

The next time Raw or SmackDown occurs on/before Christmas Eve or Christmas, they should just do something like this.

Another thing that had me cracking up was Booker saying, "You Awful!" to Brad Maddox.

There's a video up on the FanNation YouTube account. Titus is all "My kids, man". Titus is awesome.
