60 minutes....I think it requires 3 bumps





EUGENE!!!

The rampaging retard is back!

STUNNER

BAHGAWDSTUNNER!!!!

BAHGAWDSTUNNERBAHGAWDSTUNNER!!!!

BAWHGAWD!STUNNER!BBQSAUCE!

He hit Eric. :lol:

FUCK EUGENE GET OUT OF THERE!

Woohoooooo this match has picked up

Shouldn't HHH get a dq for hitting the ref?

It's sad how damn predictable this match is.

Wow...anyone reminded of the HHH/Orton honeymoon video?

Come on...come on....come on....

Can't Eugene make the ref count? Austin did that once.

Its like watching a match in slo-mo/

Wooooo!

I was right!

Last second decision

BENOIT! BENOIT! BENOIT!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:nono:

Damn

NOW WE HAVE ORTON/BENIOT AT SUMMERSLAM! Oh....crap on a crapstick.

Dude, something's wrong with my TV. It just showed Benoit retaining the World Title over Triple H.

Now where the hell is Orton?

Could be good.

ORTON VS BENOIT

BAHGAWD ITS GONNA BE A CLASSIC!

:wtf:

It'll certainly be better than Taker/JBL

That'll probably be brought up next week

Trips looks like he is about to have a convulsion or 5.

and, as my final post...RAW goes off the air with a huge loogey coming out of trips mouth :/

oh let that picture with HHH with the spit coming out of his mouth be in captions

well, kiddies, thats RAW in a hand-grenade

He's a Jeff Hardy mark.

Lets see....Beniot won the Iron Man match, Orton's the number one contender, and its the Lost Episode of Family guy...can life get any sweeter?

LOL, that HHH loogie is gonna be captioned to death.

That's where the split is going to start.

i have a JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW

WOOO!

2 hours! 2 matches!

You made that sound like a crime.

no ilt you mean WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I don't care what anybody says about Eugene's run in, That shit was entertaining as hell and I was marking out. Eugene fk'n cleaned house. That was soooo Austin like. Loved the Stunner on Flair and the Rock Bottom on HHH. Great stuff. FK'N BENOIT VS ORTON. HOLY SHIT.

I figured he would've caused a DQ to get HHH to win, but Benoit wins instead.

It isn't, but it should be.

Bite me. Just...bite me.

Well, awesome RAW, time to watch the Schmo's. My tape cut off last week so I missed the ending.

Oh, hell yeah. Eugene ruled, definite mark-out moment there.

I'm telling you, they got to make the Benoit/Orton match a ladder match. It would help sell that match more because there hasn't been any buildup.

BTW: I love how Benoit takes those Irish-Whip into the turnbuckle bumps. I know he's done it a million times, but I never mentioned it. That's classic Hart style right there

LOL did you see that fly crawling on Benoit's face when he was down? Prolly lapping up the blood. :wtf:

That was a good match. Anyone who says it's boring should watch the Rock vs HHH one... :x

:lol: Yeah.........Triple H's gag reflex in full swing. Too salty there........

I liked it tonight. Technical and physical. Next week shall be very interesting.

respect to benoit and triple h for wrestling a FULL HOUR instead of the about 10 - 20 minutes they usually do on raw

Only not as short. ;)

LMAO

Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the "No shit" award, 2004...
 

I know. What an action packed night. Except the action packed part.

I loved JR's comment: "Benoit wouldn't be intimidated by a... chainsaw!"

:rofl: That guy is such a joke.

Personally, I liked it better when Benoit "cheated to become the Intercontinental Title" against RVD.

Another JR slip-up tonight, "Once Benoit's on topa you, it's hard to get him off" (or something like that). You think JR and Benoit have had some romantic evenings together?

Meh, I still like JR and I wouldn't have anyone else callling the match. He does a great job in selling the emotion. I don't usually catch the slip-ups, so I have no problem with them. Now, the King I can't stand.

<font color=cyan>If LC lives on the west coast, he just creamed his pants.

GO ORTON!

having 5 simultaneous heart attacks while announcing is an emotion right?

No, I believe that's a medical emergency.

heh, so I guess thats not emotion, KK you're right

Shit. I thought he was just constipated...

I didn't mean to pick on a serious medical problem...:shifty:

JR knows two modes...

Monotone and dull.

Screaming and hilarious.

Benoit wins, eugene helps out and he gets the fall with 6 seconds remaining. Well every1 already guessed that wwe!!!!

If you guys hate JR so much, just hit the mute button. The wrestlers don't talk when they are wrestling, so you won't miss anything there. You don't have to listen to him you know.

So do you... Sexy :naughty:


... Happy? :|.. ;)

Great match by Benoit and Hunter, however it fell short of being considered one of the best IM matches because of the interference. I mean I knew the finish going in, so I wasn't shocked or anything, but it really killed the match for me. Reason being, you had 50 minutes of great work and storytelling, and the match, instead of ending decisively (which these matches should) ended because of a typical CF ending that happens on every RAW and SD. So it went form being something really special to being very ordinary. And at the end of the day, Benoit didn't really beat Hunter, Eugene beat him, so that doesn't really make Benoit seem dominant. Dont get me wrong, both guys worked great and Benoit especially was amazing with his selling, but cant we have a clean finish for sitting through a 60 minute match? I mean if they wanted to do a big CF match why not just have a typical 20 minute match and get to the point that way? Could have been an all time classic, but it fell short. Also, the lack of crowd reaction for most of the match kinda shows Iron Man matches dont work for live crowds, well at leats this one didn't.

I liked parts of the Battle Royal (stuff with Edge and Jericho was really good), but I didn't feel it was an effective way to set up Orton as the top challenger. I mean it wasn't a stand out performance like Eddie or Benoit had to eran their respective title shots, it was just a run of the mill Battle Royal. I dont know, I think it would have been better to do some kind of actually match and make Orton look really strong, rather than just throwing guys over the top rope.

Divas segments were beyond words. I mean I thought the first week was horrible, this was way way worse. Who would have thought I could hate a segment with Kamala in it? Well I did. Seriously, they need to cut bait on this thing.

So overall, even though we only got two matches, both were good, and the Iron Man was excellent (despite the finish) so a great RAW overall.

and that solves EVERYTHING!:roll:

Thank you, Lord Cannon.

no problem :y:

I think JR is better than Cole on his own, but as a team I find Lawler and JR to be annoying most of the time. Tazz and Cole I find entertaining.

Best RAW I've seen in YEARS!
 

Seriously, best show in a long ass time. The Jericho-Orton ending to the battle royal had to have been the best ending ever. The Iron Match was easily my favorite one yet, even with the interference. I know some people are gonna pissed, but they built up to it perfectly and the entire match told a great story. It was better than Angle-Lesnar, better than Rock-HHH and a little better than Hart-HBK.

The Kamala skit was pretty lame IMO, but it served as a great filler.

My interest in the WWE is peaking again. Last time I felt this good about the WWE, was in between Vengeance and Summerslam 2002 (although after Summerslam 2002 - the WWE REALLY screwed things up :foc: -).

Oh well - great show!

I was thinking about the battle royal. With the final two being Jericho and Orton, mabe the WWE is still high on Jericho, considering he was the last guy in the royal before Orton won. He lasted longer than Edge, whos been pushed to the moon recently.

Maybe I'm reading into this too much, but now that HBK isn't here, wouldn't that make Jericho the No. 2 face on RAW behind Benoit? (don't mind Eugene, he isn't a title contender)

I was thinking the same thing, that would be fine with me if Jericho was the No.2 face. But i think we will see an Edge heel turn and a fued with Jericho because of the Battle Royal. My first post!!!

:rofl: Better than Hart/HBK? LOL. It was pretty decent mostly due to Benoit being *snicker* that damn good but it was hardly the best.

Opinions are like assholes,.....and I am like an opinion. :cool:

Also - hate Triple H all you want, but he performed very well in my view.

Not to hate on Hunter for no reason, but Benoit carried that match, HHH did his part, but Benoit made the match really good.

I think I ranked this one #3 in WWE Iron Man Matches (beats out HHH-Rock).

:y:
