Six days until Unforgiven, should be a great show. Good opening promo with the inaugural World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam and potential contenders in Triple H, Big Show, and Kane. Loving the sound of the Fatal Four Way match. I'm really hoping for Van Dam to retain, but I wouldn't be surprised if Hunter were to win the championship. Solid opening contest, and pretty happy to see Christian get the win. Despite that, I am hoping that Booker T and Goldust claim the World Tag Team Championships at Unforgiven. Glad to see Trish Stratus gain contention to the WWE Women's Championship. She and Molly should put on a nice match on Sunday, and I can easily see Trish capturing her second reign. Nice Hardcore Championship bout, and I loved Tommy Dreamer winning the title in a match that he wasn't even a part of. Oh, Val Venis defecting over to RAW? Chief Morley it is then. Great match between Kane and Triple H. The Disqualification finish was expected to keep both men strong heading into Sunday's Fatal Four Way match. Kane standing tall seems like an indicator that he won't be doing the same at Unforgiven. Goldust defeating Lance Storm made sense to even out Booker's loss from earlier. As I said earlier, I would absolutely love for Booker and Goldust to win the titles on Sunday. Liked the segment with 3 Minute Warning and the Dudley Boyz. I imagine it would have been a great moment for Bubba and Spike to finally gain a bit of retribution against Rosey and Jamal. Awesome bout between Chris Jericho and Jeff Hardy. Made sense to tie up this feud before Sunday and Jericho's match against Ric Flair. Lastly, not too keen on having both Fatal Four Way preview matches end in a disqualification. I understand not wanting to have any of the participants come out of the go-home show looking weak, but still. Loved the chaotic finish. Overall, a very solid edition of RAW heading into Unforgiven. Looking forward to reading your first pay per view outing of the diary.
