Final Segment: Eric Bischoff comes down and boy, howdy, is he mad. He calls out Chris Benoit. He did the same thing last night at the house show here in town and he ate Crossface. That was sweet. Foley is called out next and it really does seem like a bunch of high school guys getting called into the pricipal's office. Shawn's the pretty boy kid who always avoids trouble, Benoit's the rugged and tough guy who doesn't take shit, and Foley's the lovable nice guy who just tags along for the experience. Eric announces Evolution vs. Benoit, Michaels, Foley, and Benjamin for next week. Hyping future shows? MADNESS I SAY! Evolution comes in for the donnybrook as HBK eats a spinebuster from Batista. Foley and Orton exit stage left. HBK takes the sledgehammer and Benoit takes a chop block trying to make the save. Foley gets laid out next and Benoit takes a chair shot from HHH. And it just won't be Raw without a Pedigree and indeed Benoit takes the bullet on the chair. It hypes next week AND Backlash at the same time so it's all good.
Overall, nothing too offensive aside from the whole Eugene crap and unfairly short matches. And who did Rhyno piss off? Backlash is shaping up nice and is looking (on paper) like the best Raw PPV so far. A positive step forward this week.
