To quote Kel...

Awwwwwww here it go

 

[Tyrath]

I'm so glad he didn't actually talk there. An F5 is all that was needed.

 

[The Champ]

HOLY SHIT BEST RAW EVER

 

[The Dragon Saga]

Here Comes the Mother Fuckin' Pain!

 

[The_Reptile_]

Holy shit that was the best RAW in a looooooooong time.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Pretty good follow up RAW after a pretty great PPV.

 

[Galvatron]

Great Raw.

 

[The Butcher]

And that ladies and gentlemen, is how it's fucking done. Everything in service of a storyline, surprises, great utilization of non-wrestler characters, and solid in-ring competition to tie it all together.

Great, great, great show.

 

[Nate DaMac]

I'm sure it'll be a good match but I still don't see the appeal. I'd fight CM Punk if I had to. I'd run from Lesnar like a little bitch.

They basically set up every major summer angle in one night, and did so brilliantly each time.

Just a brilliant, brilliant show. Absolutely phenomenal.

Are those the same creative team that were responsible for things like Michael Cole vs Jerry Lawler wrestlemania feud? I can't believe it.

 

[The Dragon Saga]

Quite possibly if not definitely my favorite episode of Raw since the episode with Bischoff's Gold Rush Tournament. What a fucking show. Props to WWE.

Most people want to see because of the concept of two 'Heyman Guys' fighting each other makes them jizz their pants. I want to see because I just want to see Brock break bitches in half.

That was two years ago, so I'm sure there are different people on it now.

But I can't even believe it's the same team who were responsible for the incredibly boring Cena/Ryback feud that just ended last night.

I believe that's the appeal - it's a classic David vs Goliath story. People tend to enjoy cheering for underdogs, cheering for a small guy against a giant monster of a man.

I guess. It would be pretty sweet if Punk beat him, that'd put him on a pretty high level.

Fuck. I think I'm into this too.

 

[Kodo Sawaki]

Great Raw. Henry suprised me but I guess its logical and MiTB is coming good this year with fresh summer feuds. Looking forward for Punk/Lesnar and hope Bryan is OK and that this was planed as an angle...

Perhaps Paul Heyman and Zeb Colter are standing over the writer's shoulders. There's something to be said for the rise of Triple H as a backstage power, as well.

 

[Uncle Sam]

One of the all-time great Raws - wish I had watched it live but there you go.

Loved the ending particularly. Punk actually fighting the F5 instead of acting like being picked up knocked you unconscious was a nice touch, and the imagery of Punk knocked out with a microphone lying by his head was nice, even if it was pretty clearly unintentional.
