Raw 1000 LD 23/7/12 - 1000 episodes have been met

[The Brain]

So did anyone notice Austin wasn't on Raw?

 

[MCMG]

Just a bit of a anti-climatic ending. It was built as a celebration.

 

[newc868]

I guess that fan incident in St Louis really got to CM Punk and he now hates the fans.

 

[Starchild]

I am genuinely shocked at no Austin. Interested to see where they're going with Punk though

 

[Chrome]

Maybe Stone Cold didnt want to do it? In any event this Raw was awesome!

 

[Moon Knight]

No Austin? I am unhappy about that.

 

[Ellye]

Yeah, heel Punk.
I like that. His sarcasm and cynicism fits so much better in a heel.

 

[Jsaturn14]

Sigh, why does everything need one glaring omission. Amazing show, but the lack of Stone Cold is a pretty epic fail.

 

[Born To Fly]

So did anyone notice Austin wasn't on Raw?

Dark match.


Just kidding.

 

[Chrome]

Wow. I can't believe they really didn't have Austin. That's the only person I wanted to see. WTF

Ever thought Austin might have not wanted to do it?

 

[Remy LaCroix]

The GTS to the Rock was fucking beautiful.

 

[klunderbunker]

Review is up.

Raw Turns 1000 And Punk Snaps

 

[Nate DaMac]

First unsuccessful MITB cash in was John Cena.

 

[Ferreira]

Good way to extend Punk's reign. I guess he can retain his title until Royal Rumble when Rock comes for revenge.

 

[mikde_]

I do not see the logic in turning punk!

People will not boo him, his merch sales were making big money and he was on his way to taking cena's spot. Sure he works better as a heel but how is this good business?

 

[The Brain]

Ever thought Austin might have not wanted to do it?

I heard they asked him to job to Lesnar.

 

[Moon Knight]

Maybe Stone Cold didnt want to do it? In any event this Raw was awesome!

Or maybe he couldn't. Edge wasn't there so maybe other obligations got in the way.

 

[Ellye]

I think Rock was better today than in his previous non-WM in-ring appearances.

 

[RattleRockerJet97]

Theres no going back I guess.....Punk is a heel again.....

I feel like ive been kicked in the groin. Just disappointed they had to go this route.

 

[Dream]

WWE bombed hard by not having Austin on or at least explaining why. Twitter is going crazy he wasn't there.

 

[CM-Punkha]

they booked Punk to make him look weak again.

This should have been the episode to make Cena heel.

 

[Born To Fly]

First unsuccessful MITB cash in was John Cena.

Since it was a DQ, does the briefcase still belong to him? Isn't it supposed to be a clean finish? I am asking since I'm not sure at all.

 

[IHW]

Loved the show! Ending was not expected. CM Punk heel turn? Interesting. Have to say some of his greatest stuff has happened as heel. #Raw1000 was epic.

 

[Diet Soda]

GAAAAHHHH!!!!

Not playing their music as they walk away from the ring; surefire way of brewing the heel turn ambiguity.

Hmm, nice twist at the end - guess it needed Big Show to big in The Rock. Still, hope he keeps his ham fists away from the title scene.

So yeah, best Raw in time, but we weren't expecting anything otherwise, were we?

Goodnight everyone. I think I see the sun coming up.

 

[MCMG]

Orton can turn heel. Not punk or cena.
