You know, this was a terrible RAW. All the heels got treated like weaklings.

[Chad1m]

It was just odd, period.

[Byakugan]

Simmons broke the masterlock

[Chad1m]

Not officially.

[Hiroshi Hase]

It was retarded how Rated RKO had HBK out cold and could've pinned him (which they were trying for all through the match I believe), and then it suddenly dawned on them to do the conchairto mid-match and get themselves DQed, real bright

Why not get the victory, then beat the daylights out of Shawn?

In a show with more than 80 minutes of airtime, there was 23 minutes and 53 seconds of wrestling.

Once again, the mcmahons and their cronies present what they want to see rather than what would actually progress the show. How much time did HHH get tonight? We get it, he's hurt, we'll miss him.....whatever. I mean, he jus got hurt....do we need a surgery vid right away? Are we going ot get one of those every week?

They could have gotten Edge and Orton over as dangerous and badass heels by having them destroy Shawn Micheals. They also could have had a special moment, and have an old timer come out of nowhere to help Shawn Micheals. Nope, instead we get some sort of HHH tribute, and an ending that makes the heels look really incompetent. Whoever wrote that main event was trying to get in with the Mcmahons, or was a Mcmahon. Either way, it reaked of political manuevering and posteuring.

[Hensley]

Typical...

Out comes McMahon to the ring. Vince is upset that Donald called the Donald-Rosie match a skit, and a poor attempt at comedic satire. They show highlights of the "skit." Vince said that was brilliant. They show it again in slow motion. McMahon said he tells his audience what they want to see, rather than what Donald does. Vince introduces "Miss USA" (as he would have handled that situation differently). Out comes Torrie Wilson as "Miss USA." Wilson reads a statement saying she had been bad, and asks what she can do to make it up to Mr. McMahon. As Vince talks to Wilson, out comes Carlito. Carlito tells Vince he isn't cool, and the Rosie-Donald thing was really bad. Carlito said Trump was right about him, and he doesn't know what the fans want. They don't want to see Vince talk, but see people fight. Vince takes off his suit coat, but brings out The Great Khali. Khali head butts Carlito, and beats down Carlito as Vince enjoys it. Wilson looked on in terror. Vince looks at Carlito laying flat on his back and says, "now thats cool." Vince walks away as Torrie consoles Carlito.

Wow.

I think the right amount of time was spent. One of their biggest superstars is out. It could have been a lot worse.
