HBK/Shelton's match on Raw
 

This match was the greatest singles match I've ever seen on Cable TV.

I think it shows that 1.) HBK is still one of the best and 2.) When Shelton's ready, he'll be able to main event the big shows.

I agree

Absolutely.

These two both put on a hell of a show. Hell, even Hebner was getting pounded. Anybody else notice that?

Now that I think of it, I'd say that this is in the top 3 of my fav matches with Bret/HBK Iron man and RVD/Lynn @ Living Dangerously 99.

HBK is amazing. HBK over the years has lost a lot of steps in the ring, but he makes up for it with his wrestling knowledge. HBK may be the best ever.

Also Shelton is Fucking awsome

Indeed.

i agree that arguably might of been the best match in the history of raw i dont remember a single match making me go oooooh so many times in awhile it was so good and so much emotion i was on the edge of my seat

Yet that's the hour one main event so Hunter can take the last slot for his match with (probably) Benoit.

I still prefer the Bulldog/Owen match in Germany for the euro title on Raw.

That was greatness.

Shelton is AWESOME. That standing jump to the top rope was :eek: and the ending was brilliant. Out of nowhere for most people, and those who saw it coming did so only because they're pretty seasoned viewers. But a great ending, and magnificent spots, wrestling, pacing, and storytelling.

Best match on RAW this year I'd say.

Fucking awesome match.

I've been saying how much love I have for Shelton.

I question anyone's sanity who says that Shelton sucks.

Agreed. Excellent match. I was jumping out of my seat. That SCM spot was played out perfectly.

Got Benjamin over and maintained HBKs top spot.

HBK may get a bad rap for helping hold people down in his Kliq days, but the man sells like a maniac. He just helped Shelton's career a whole lot tonight, even though he pinned him. Shelton looked like a legit main eventer tonight.

I just love the way they're booking Shelty as the young guy with infinite reserves of energy.

That kip up spot was gold. HBK is just like "What the? But.... only I do that!!"

Holy crap, the last time I've been this excited for a RAW is when people were talking about how good Muhammad Hassan's debut was. But people are saying this HBK/Shelton match is one of the best ever, one of the greatest in RAW's history at least.

I am pumped, and it's a shame I still have to wait some 24 hours for RAW.

I dont know, it was very good, but it wasn't even the bet match Ive seen in the past 30 days, so I cant get overly excited about it.

I would like to see them do a PPV match though, hopefully with a different outcome.

I hate Shelton Benjamins character but I think he is one of the best in the ring. He really impressed me in his first Raw match when he faced Triple H. And week after week he has proved that he can run with the big dogs. I think everyone knew that Benjamin Vs HBK would be a great match and now we all know.

Triple H, Jericho, HBK, this guy is hooking up with a lot of great talent.

To me that was best match I have seen on raw in a long time.

I just have to say I missed a good bit of it but what I did see of it was awesome

Shelton sure comes off as a legit guy. He's been booked really well in his entire WWE career so far.

they still got time to do what they are good at doing, messin stuff up

Give us a spoiler warning, asshole.

The title is kind of a spoiler warning, as it says HBK/Shelton's match on RAW.
You'd have to be some sort of idiot not to expect a spoiler in the thread.

the single greatest match in raw history hands down
and even though sheltons shoulders went down for 3 he's still a big winner in this match cause he has now without a shadow of a doubt proven he fucking belongs in the main event
MARK MY WORDS SHELTON BENJAMIN WILL BE WORLD CHAMPION THIS YEAR

Totally agree. I still find it amazing people in the crowd don't cheer for him as much as they do others, and lately they've even been saying 'shelton sucks'. Anyone who chants that deserves to die.

I hope they wait abit until next years wrestlemania, he should stay intercontinental champion for a large part of this year first.Even though he's had no real feuds yet(which is weird when you think how long he's held the title)i'm still enjoying his title reign.

DAMMIT, what the fuck? I miss 1 Raw in like 4 years and I miss this.

^Doesn't it get replayed in the US, LC?If it does, then watch it no matter what.We get it repeated twice in the week plus aload of highlight shows which arent worth watching really.

I disagree, name me a couple of real storylines that he has had during his title reign?I can't think of any...the ones with maven/snitsky don't count btw.

Shelton could be huge one day, but not if they don't let him work on his mic skills. Sure, he's atrocious right now, but I think he has alot of untapped charisma, it's just that they don't let him work the mic, I guess out of fear that he'll do terrible.

:eek: @ the finish of the match.

Excellent match showcasing both men's skills.

Yeah, he hasn't been much of a focus, but they have protected him along the way though. He hasn't jobbed a lot, so I kinda get the feeling that eventually they want to do something with him.

I said a while ago that Shelton is the hidden gem. His mic skills are actually good, but they write his crap for him, so he can't really be himself

I have not seen this match yet although I just saw the finish which was quality. I must admit that I was a doubter of Benjamin and his ability to make the step up but his performances since Wrestlemanin 21 have convinced me that this guy has what it takes to make that step up to the main event. If the writing team keep it up, then they could have a real star on their hands.

My previous pick for best Raw match saw HHH vs. oh guess who Shelton Benjamin.

The super-kick at the end, just holy shit. That's all I could think of, just holy shit.
