I really think that last nights debacle of a Raw needs a name so we can always remember it. It wouldnt be justified as just THAT Raw.

The Raw that Matt Rogers stayed up until 4am to watch, and regretted it instantly. But Khali made it better.™
Long, but it works.

RAW is S***.
Oh, wait.
That does nothing to distinguish it from about 200 other episodes.

How about the "Fudgey the Whale Raw" Because that first segment with "Rosie" and Fudgey pretty much set the bar for the rest of the night. Nice to know that while Vince may be 60 something years old, his sense of humor is stalled at 8.
So did they intentionally make RAW Suck so we'd all equate the worst Raw in recent memory with the first Raw With Triple H gone?

Was it really that bad?
I mean, yeah, everything involving Rosie vs. Trump was beyond terrible, probably the worst non-wrestling fued that Vince has tossed into WWF ever (worse than Huckster vs. Nacho Man). But we knew it was coming.
Dykstra vs. Hardy was an entertaining match, and it helped to further two fueds in WWE.
The Diva Match was...well...a Diva Match. To quote Dennis Green, "THEY ARE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY ARE!!!"
Cryme Tyme vs. Cade and Murdoch was good because it kept Cryme Tyme away from those god-awful skits (see: Richards, Michael and Nursing Home).
Masters vs. Carlito was meh, but they haven't produced a good one-on-one match yet in their fued.
And Khali vs. Cena helped establish Khali as Raw's new monster, and helped further Cena vs. Umaga, as we head into the Royal Rumble.
On the 1-10 scale, it was a 4. Without Rosie vs. Trump, we're looking at a 6 or 7.

I was totally dissapointed in Vince's juvenile humor, though, he really missed the boat with Rosie. The proper Carvell cake for the occasion would've been Cookie Puss. You know why.

She can't keep her hands off the Puss! She'd eat Puss morning, noon, and night if she could! *Phone rings* Hello? Well, it looks like I've been hired as a WWE writer. Can't talk to you guys anymore. Good luck in all of your future endeavors.

Holy crap, thanks for the memories. Cookie Puss was one hell of a tasty cake. I think a 2 hour documentary on Carvel would've been more exciting than this RAW.

Without Rosie vs. Trump, we're looking at a 6 or 7. Good points BRV. However, allow me to counter with.... 1) If you include all the Rosie/Donald Segment, that was at least 15 minutes of TV Time, dedicated to something that has no connection to wrestling. Plus the match lasted 10 minutes (That includes entrances). The crowd was ready to riot (As my friend put it, "THis is X-Pac heat...and that ain't good"), and sounded pretty dead for the rest of the show. This was 10 minutes of "People at home Change the channel for good" type action. 2) What happened to Triple H? Why wasn't he there? Oh that's right he was injured, I must have missed when they showed clips about him getting injured 7 times in a 2 hour show. 3) Randy Orton gets the Mic. And hangs on to the Mic. And words come out, but as its Randy Orton those at home change the channel (Prefering the more entertaining than Orton C-span). Those in the audience imagine being elsewhere, and those writing this stuff should be looking for a new job. 4) We go from "Rosie" checking out Maria to Todd Pettengil Grisham talking to Mushmouth Kali....this one just about went long enough to cross the border from Funny to lame. (Although the proper followup to this would have been to have King agree with Kali's sentiment while JR looks dumbfounded at the King) 5) I like both Carlito and Masters and I was lost about why Torrie came out (Because this "Story" has been on hold for weeks, and I missed the PPV), so did the live audience have any clue without an announcer to fill them in? (Who had Carlito annoyed so that they took away his Mic Privelges) 6) General annoyance...tag champs continue to not have to defend the gold, the main event was given all of 2 minutes, which I can't tell if it is a good thing or not (Based on what I've seen and heard of Mr Khali) I'll grant you the Tag, IC, Masters/Carlito, and Diva (IT wasn't bad by Diva Standards) matches were decent and actually moved some storylines along, and now HBK gets to carry on the Rated RKO Feud solo (Good or bad?), so the show had some bright spots, but the bad was VERY bad tonight. Just my thoughts.
