The entire segment with Morrison and R-Truth didn't even make sense. I didn't even know what was going on (in terms of where they were going with it) until the commentators told me what was happening. There was no trickery. I don't even remember Morrison mentioning or trying to do a play on words or emotion against R-Truth to make them want to put anything of any importance on the line. If it were a good turn. They should have forshadowed and gave R-Truth some character for us fans to actually care that he even turned heel in the first place. I think it would have been better if he beat Morrison up..then apologized and little incidences like that kept happening. Random violent streaks from Truth rather than just blowing the load in one Raw that didn't matter. Get the fans to not trust this guy. Have the at home audience yell at Morrison for trusting Truth..ya know, put more 'oomph' behind it. I like Miz...I just don't like Miz holding the title when there's nothing interesting written for him as the champion. That's it. A person shouldn't have the title if their story isn't the main draw...and speaking of... Cole vs King  ! |

He was always getting involved in the Cena/Nexus feud trying to tell Cena what to do and basically **** stirring. And for somebody who likes Miz, you don't show it much....ever infact. |

I thought the opening promo with JoMo/Truth was pretty crappy.. I mean imo JoMo seemed like the heel talking sh*t about his friend. But I was really happy that JoMo won since I dislike Truth and John Morrison is my favorite wrestler atm. Truth's heel turn was too long.. He should have hurried that up. Dolph's new look will take some getting used to for me at least. The match against Bourne was decent for the length. I would like to see a longer match between the two because I know they would have a good match. Cena/Sin Cara v Miz/Alex was okay. Sin Cara again ed up. His moonsault ftw was just sad. His arm hit Riley so great finisher..... Eve v Nikki Bella was not good imo. WTF was Brie talking about? The Diva's title is suppose to be for every show.. So stfu unless you know what you are talking about! Eve should not have had to earn her rematch clause. The thing just didn't make sense but whatever. Kong's second promo was great again. Not as good as the first but it was still good and I'm glad they didn't just show the same one again. Sheamus vs Santino seemed to drag on too long. I was not a fan. I don't know where Bryan was or Tamina/Kozlov but the match was just nothing special.. Randy v Punk was good I guess. I didn't like how the match was won by Orton. Punk should have won since he lost at WM 27.. The beatdown on Orton was kinda weird. I don't know why Ryan was acting all crazy to his friends.. Calm down... |

I thought The Miz was great when he won the title. That was a crazy unpredictable night. But ever since, he hasn't showed anything to anyone that he actually deserves to hold onto it. He's just been written terribly. When he first had the title, he was in matches with Lawler, only to add the fuel to the fire that was the King/Cole feud that we see today. He didn't do anything in The Rock/Cena feud because everyone knows he's not on their level. He's seems to only have the title now...because they don't have a clear cut storyline for anyone else to hold it. |

So do you actually like anything in WWE besides Cole/Lawler or do you just watch it so you can call it crap afterwards? |

So do you actually like anything in WWE besides Cole/Lawler or do you just watch it so you can call it crap afterwards? I can't stand the whole Lawler thing. I think it's terrible. If there were things I could praise about WWE, it'd be Cody Rhodes CM Punk ..wow, that's about it. They're the only two that seem to 'get' it. They get heat, not based off of being annoying, but because they know how to play a character, a heel character and do it well. And they're very very different from each other as well. Vickie Michael Cole Alberto Del Rio The Miz Get the annoying heat. That's a terrible heel. Being annoying can get you boo's, sure, but that doesn't make a good heel. (Although, I think Alberto can be great later on down the line, same with Miz) But that's really just the cheap heat. The equivalent of saying "This state is annoying' and getting booes. Ugh. I think CM Punk could REALLY elevate Raw. They need a good heel and a clever storyline. I think CM Punk could be Cena's really good, mind twisting heel. But that's just me wishing for something good. |

So if you only like CM Punk on Raw, is it really worth watching?

No, because I want to see how these characters grow, and adapt to situations that they're in. That's what makes a TV show entertaining. |

No, because I want to see how these characters grow, and adapt to situations that they're in. That's what makes a TV show entertaining. Umm, yeah. That's pretty weird. Maybe it's just me, but I can't name a single show I only like one character on that I watch regularly. For example, Everybody Loves Raymond. I watch it occasionally, but I only like Frank so it's not one of my favourites. How I Met Your Mother on the other hand, I like all the main characters so I watch the show regularly. I don't see the point in watching a show for one character unless that character is THE central character. |

I liked the show overall. The Mason Ryan freakout wasn't needed though. I can't wait for the draft next week. Is it three hours long like usual?

Illegal to smoke in all enclosed public and work places in the UK. Thanks for answering. I was just wondering if they will do that smoking indoors thing again in the U.S... cause it's illegal here in NC. And RAW is here next Monday. You aRe allowed to smoke indoors as long as its part of an act stage performance |

wonder whose idea it was to smoke and do all that truth did last night. really felt out of place. I dont really anyone else who has smoked in the past. well bradshaw had his cigars, but no one who smoked cigarettes. I see alot of people making a fuss out of it, cause of the kids and the pg rating.

I thought Raw was good last night. I like the R-Truth heel turn but do agree that it took too long. I've been a fan of Truth for awhile and his character know seems more interesting after his big display last night. Also Sin Cara botched again. He pretty much was off the entire match. Cole's foot fungus looked bad. lol  Punk/Orton match was very good and Orton once again got the better of the Nexus at the end. Overall a good show..  Oh yeah the divas match was bad and Dolph's new look will take some getting used to... |

I highly enjoyed this past Raw. Enjoyed Truth's heel turn. Still not liking Sin Cara. Just rubs me the wrong way.

– This week’s edition of WWE Tough Enough drew a 1.53 (1.5) cable rating, with 2,196,000 viewers, That is a drop from the previous week but still very good. The replay that aired after RAW drew a 1.16 (1.2) cable rating, with 1,568,000 viewers.
– This week’s edition of RAW drew a 3.1 cable rating, with 4.7 million viewers. That is down from recent telecasts. The show actually dropped in hour two as the first hour did a 3.19 (3.2) and hour two did a 3.06 (3.1). That’s obviously not a good sign.
– AM RAW on April 16th did a 0.47 (0.5) cable rating, with 592,000 viewers. A 1:00AM WWE Tough Enough replay drew a 0.63 (0.6) cable rating, with 756,000 viewers.
– WWE Tough Enough also aired twice on April 17th. The 1:00AM edition did a 0.58 (0.6) cable rating, with 753,000 viewers. The 2:00AM edition drew a 0.42 cable rating, with 496,000 viewers.

RAW needs to do something to grab fans' attention, like the Draft, something different than anything else during the year, after basically being a commercial for Rock and Cena's promo feud for two months.
Not sure what RAW can do without Rock full-time, but for Tough Enough, they need to heavily promote it like they do their crappy movies. Drill it into people's heads that it's on before and after RAW, as well as show the different approach Tough Enough takes from all other WWE programs.

Thanks fOr spoiling that.... sorry man it was an accident i thought most of you knew that truth is out and jomi is in... but this place is gonna be dead tonight... hopefully next weeks raw and the ROCK RAW make up for this weeks raw Actually it wasn't I was there and there were some exclusive UK chants. The best bits where when Nexus came out after Orton had won and when Sin Cara's music hit after the Miz said 'and I'm...'. Starship pain was amazing life and the sequence when Dolph Ziggler dodged Air Bourne-Evan landed on his feet-then Ziggler hit the Zig Zag was unbelievable. Also, Truth's heel turn was not too suprising, but really interesting and I feel it shall make for him solidifying himself as a mid main event superstar. (I'm suprised Truth was allowed to smoke because it's a no smoking arena and it was clearly not organised as he fetched a cigarette from a member of the WWE Universe) |
