WWE RAW is WAR Talkback (Spoilers)

[BLACKHEART]

RAW preview for Nov. 11
RAW is live Monday night at 9/8 CT on the new TNN!

With just six days remaining before he steps into the Elimination Chamber at Survivor Series, we will hear from Shawn Michaels. What will he have to say? Undoubtedly, he will have some words for his one-time friend Triple H.

Also, Christian and Chris Jericho defend the World Tag Team Championship against Kane and Rob Van Dam.

In addition, the five-time WCW Champion Booker T will go one-on-one with the World Heavyweight Champion Triple H.

All this and much more Monday on RAW, live at 9/8 CT on the new TNN!

You know what would make this show more interesting? Getting rid of the twenty minute interview in the middle of the show. All that interview does is tell me to turn the television. Right now I am watching CSI: Miami. Why bore myself by watching RAW. That interview segment worked during the days of Attitude but those days are over. It is time to drop the 20 minute interview and just provide some actual wrestling that will keep people tuned in.

Just one person's opinion.

What twenty minute interview... oh wait that 8 minute segment with HBK and HHH furthering the storyline and creating anticipation for Survivor Series? Next are you going to complain about all the TV time Triple H has gotten even though Chris Jericho or HBK has been on the show for more minutes total.

WHERE IS EVERYBODY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[czyznyck99]

Nobody watched Raw. It sucks ;) .

That was a joke, BTW, well, in part. I did watch Raw, and I was still unimpressed. I don't know. The tag title match was great, but that was it. Victoria was trying her character way too hard, it wasn't convincing. After seeing Triple H manhandle HBK like that, I can't believe he is going to lose at Survivor Series because of Michaels.

Personally, I should have watched the MNF game. Sorry, fans.

Later.

[Robin2099]

Great tag match but the rest of the show was really bland. It's also nice to see that Booker T got burried by HHH tonight. I do have to admit that I marked out seeing HBK do the pedigree.

[Ravenger]

Decent Raw... last week's was much better.

Missed the tag title match.. oh well.

Missed the post match interview.

Jeff Hardy v. Lance Storm

Decent match. At least Jeff didn't blow any spots. Good filler I guess.

I skipped the whole Terri, Victoria, Trish thing... it just sucked in the first thirty seconds.

Batista v. Dlo Brown

I don't know what they're tring to do here. Bury their Heat superstars or push Batista. But this stomp was just there. No real anything spectacular. Hopefully they'll put Batista up against some Raw guys and not Heat rejects(while entertaining... they just don't have the ability to give Batista the push he needs).

HBK Segment

I just liked this segment. HBK just lit up the mic and woke everyone up. Nice sized interview segment.. less Cripple H. I liked it. It actually hyped up the match at Survivor Series. But what about RVD, Kane, Jericho and Booker T? Aren't they in the match too?

Rosey and Jamal v. Bubba Ray and Spike Dudley

I like Rosey and Jamal. Good music, excellent talent, superior moves. Only problem, stupid, useless manager and crappy name "3 minute warning". Good gimmick.. didn't need to develop into a name. Great match. Hypes up the 6 man tag table match at Survivor Series. I could really get into this match.

Harvard Chris v. Al Snow

The match just wasn't.... Tough Enough. Ha ha ha... Anyway. Good match. Obviously leading up for a Maven/Chris fued when Maven is fully healed. Notice how all of the old Tough Enough crew is on Raw... except Nidia? Just checking.

F-View(Stacy, Steven Richards, Test)

Funny stuff. I'm starting to get into this latest ability to bury or push Test. The thing is... you have to put up with Test to watch Stacy.. is it really worth it? Anyway.. the segment had less Test, more Stacy and thats a good thing.

RNN Segment

Randy Orton's segments are funny as hell but judging by the reaction from JR and the King.. they're tring to push him heel. Oh well this is a riot and hes getting tons of air time for a guy on the bench.

Test and Steven Richards v. The Hurricane and Golddust

Ok... heres two odd combination of b class talent going up against each other. But the real winners are the fans since they were probably all looking at Stacy Keibler instead of Hurricane losing to Test again. After match... funny catchphrase time again. Its wrong on so many levels.

HHH/Booker T Segment

Actually this was entertaining.. Booker used his 5 time gimmick but didn't make references to wCw.. hopefully he can keep doing that. But Criple H gives us something very interesting. USA used to blur that out on SCSA(booo.... hiissss...) every 5 seconds. Just thought I'd mention that. Good segment.. funny stuff. Fairly average.. still better then predicable Rock interviews.

Triple H v. Booker T

Good match. Nice high spots. The after match was more exciting then the actual match though so take it for what it was worth.

Good Raw.. not as good as they have been. Too many bland matches though. They need to start some rivalries up. This just showed the Raw train losing steam. I'm sure post Survivor Series will give Raw a nice push along and end a few things that have been burying the show lately.

[Venom234]

Last night was a good night except for Oakland winning, and the night was capped off as extreme wrestling returned to New Orleans with the premier of XPW tv in the area, also in the same slot and channel ECW used to air.

All the constant commercials for their videos brought back memories of ECW.

[The Penguin]

Well I'm here Spike and I was pretty happy with RAW although they don't seem the least bit ready for Survivor Series. Three matches and none an actual Survivor Series match?! Whassup wit dat?

She's still a bad ring announcer, but I do have to admit that Lilian looked pretty nice last night. :) :o

I guess it was to hype the Elimination Chamber, but I was less than thrilled with the opening Tag Title match. It just seemed so pointless and hurt The Hurricane's status somewhat. Thank god Chris and Christian held onto the belts.

The new SmackDown! game looks pretty cool, but I still love my GameCube. :D

Gregory Helms (Ace Reporter for the Daily Globe) and Goldust made for a very interesting segment. That Goldust sure is interesting. ;)

Why would they want to rewind "The Kick" from last week? :rolleyes: Dreamer shouldn't have been 'knocked out' by that and it was stupid to show it again. That "move" should never be replayed again.

So now we get to see Hardy putting that paint all over his arm? Great. :rolleyes: JR should have thought before he said "Jeff trying to mount Storm here." :eek: Aye! It was a good match, but Dreamer seemed kinda out of place.

If Terri Runnels wasn't around anymore would that really be a bad thing?

Victoria is nuts and I have to say I like. :D

Now for this next part (Flair-Batista) I must transfer you all to the residence hall of The Penguin and turkish and our conversation...
Flair:(to Batista) "And I just wanna wish you the best of luck tonight..."
Penguin: "Against a Heat Superstar..."
turkish: "You can physically disect..."
Arena: "You're lookin' at the Real Deal now..."
:D :D :D :D We couldn't stop laughing the entire match. I want to start laughing again just thinking about it. :D

Thankfully the HBK-HHH segment was there to bring us down. The fighting was decent, but it was just sooo long. The highlight was when Earl scurried in there and grabbed the sledge hammer. :)

Just for the record a table match is not a Survivor Series match. :mad:

This whole "Tough Enough" feud is pretty interesting and I'm enjoying it so far. Good to have Maven back.

Test hitting Steven with the Kendo stick was great stuff and it got really cool after tha....DANG YOU RANDY ORTON!! Get well soon, we miss you on RAW. ;)

I liked the Trish-Lil Kim feature. I think the CD is great so far talk about it here (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55939). ;)

The Hurri-Dust/Test & Steven match-up was a nice distraction and Test taking out the now morally corrupt Richards was a nice closer.

HHH vs. Booker was rather bland, but it really picked up after all the EC people started running out. It was quite the contest to see who would be standing tall at the end of it all. Congratulations to Chris Jericho! ;)
