Anything featuring Heyman and Ryback was both weird but awesome. Next week they should have Heyman and Ryback lounging on a couch feeding each other chocolate covered strawberries.

I'm going to toss out a vote for Punk face planting on his run in. His master plan was to trip over the barricade and feign injury for what felt like 3 minutes so that he could hit Paul with a kendo stick. Wrap your mind around that.

Los Matadores gimmick sucks, did WWE seriously just do it for the potential Ole chant? The least they could have done was let the vignette music be their entrance theme.

This gets my vote. Silly ethnic stereotype gimmick + comedy little person + the year 2013 = confused, slightly uncomfortable Ringout. I knew all that was going to happen, but the execution was even more awkward than the premise. It seemed like they tried to shove way too much into that entrance. It gave me serious "trying too hard" vibes like Lord Tensai's debut. I'm not even sure I'd necessarily say it was trying too hard as much as it was pushing something that just didn't feel..... right. They clearly tried really hard with Brays debut but it felt natural when it happened. |

I took it like he was trying to lure Ryback out to try to pick up the scraps, and eventually realized that wasn't working and went for the kendo stick. Though that's probably giving them too much credit. |

The proposal was my favourite bit of Raw, but the weirdest had to be this:  |

I think they wanted to associate the Ole chant with someone else, so that people wouldn't be chanting it at Sami Zayn when they eventually call him up. |

I thought the NXT crowds were doing the Ole chants also for Zayn? |

They should bring back Val Venis as a member of the Corporation, hired to insult the size of everybody's dicks. It'd be great. |

All of it. One of the craziest, funniest Raw's I've seen in a while. The first & third hours dragged, especially the first. I thought it was about 8:45 but it was only 7:40.

Quite a few things. The entire Ryback/Heyman segment including Punk falling down was WTF. We know Paul has a way with words but that was strange. I mean it was funny and hope it goes somewhere but it took them awhile to get the point across.
Los Matadores seemed like something from about 20 years ago. I'm not sure how long it's going to last but it could be fun short term.
Zack Ryder on RAW in 2013 2 weeks in a row, that's really weird.
