In all seriousness though, I hope they don't screw this one up. The promo with Kofi trashing Orton's car reminded me of older days, where people used to just try and piss off their opponents to build a fued, it was brilliant.

Dear Vince Mcmahon,

Please bring back heel announcing, Bobby Heenan, Jesse the Body Ventura and Jerry Lawler use to work so well as heel announcers and they used to make the show so much better. Having both announcers be faces is lame and it is making me want to watch matches with the mute button on.

thank you

Roux

**Basel** · 12-01-2009, 11:23 AM

Agreed with the heel announcing.

1) I hate how John Cena always goes off on some rant about going to war and blah blah blah. Change up your promos - they all sound exactly the same.

2) I hate how DX is always shown to be making jokes about everything and not taking anything seriously, even for big matches, etc. It's annoying. Meanwhile, you have Jericho & Show trying to make the tag titles worth something, and they'll probably lose at the PPV.

3) Chris Jericho is ****ing gold. He's one of very few wrestlers, in my opinion, who could lose 15 matches in a row and still come out looking better than ever and have the fans still take him seriously. He doesn't lie when he says he's the best at what he does.

4) Please give Kane something to do. It might just be me, but I'd love to see him in a world title feud.

5) Kofi Kingston/Randy Orton feud is the best thing going on in wrestling right now.

6) Can we please, for the love of God, stop seeing Hart Dynasty vs. Cryme Tyme? Hart Dynasty should be the ones who are next in line for the Tag Titles, not DX.

The WWE Championship doesn't look at all out of place around Sheamus' waist.

**Ben** · 12-15-2009, 10:53 AM

Shocked me, but I actually like Sheamus. They've billed him well so far, hopefully it continues.

**BlueBaron** · 12-15-2009, 01:44 PM

I like him too. Anybody that beats Cena is ok in my book.

**King Joseus** · 12-21-2009, 09:21 PM

Since no Raw thread got made for tonight, I'll just throw my thoughts in here:

- Awful Raw. Lots of crap, crap, crap - this includes the Tiger Woods junk and the DX/Hornswoggle junk.

- Sheamus did well for himself by looking good in the match against MVP; he needs to find a way to keep the belt through next week when he faces Cena, but I'm not sure it'll happen...

- Jericho may or may not be back on Raw, based on the ending of the show...he seems better suited on Raw, so I wouldn't mind him coming back.

- The Miz needs a good feud...

I suppose I should add, at least, that the six man tag (Kofi/Henry/Bourne vs. Legacy) and Cena vs. Swagger were good matches. Cena vs. Swagger was just as good the second time around as it was the first...

**Basel** · 12-21-2009, 10:23 PM

Overall, one of the worst RAW's I've EVER seen.

On the bright side, it kept me from seeing the Bulls choke away a 35 point lead in the 2nd half...

(though, granted, I couldn't have watched that game if I'd wanted to...)

**Dissonance** · 12-21-2009, 10:34 PM

^illegal methods are your friend, KJ. Streams online man.

I haven't watched a complete RAW in like 6-8 months. I haven't watched bits and pieces in like 3 weeks. I've just read what's gone on from here and on news sites. Wake me up Jan 4th.

True enough, true enough - I'm still probably better off having missed this one...

**Dissonance** · 12-21-2009, 10:42 PM

Good point haha. Suns give up big leads every so often. It's frustrating as hell. Not quite like that much though.

**King Joseus** · 01-13-2010, 07:46 PM

Caught ECW on Tuesday for the first time in a good while, here's some thoughts:

- Good to see CM Punk, the man is awesome. Haven't been able to watch SD! due to not getting it in my dorm (also me being out on many Friday nights)/not getting it at my mom's house over break.

- The new batch of guys that came in after the last one (Sheamus/Yoshi Tatsu/Tyler Reks) doesn't stand out much at all. Barreta/Croft had me bored, and Vance Archer can't get a crowd reaction to save his life...

- Ezekiel Jackson is so freakin' huge. Not a bad choice to face Christian at the Rumble by any means; Christian is going to retain, I think

- Yoshi Tatsu has won me over a little bit since he first debuted. He's not a bad guy to have on the undercard, as he gets a decent crowd reaction somehow...

**Basel** · 01-13-2010, 07:54 PM

Punk vs. Christian would've been awesome at RR instead of Jackson vs. Christian.
