Official Monday Night RAW Dec.15 2003 Thread

I'm once again hooked on the Jericho/Trish angle, which is the best thing on Raw right now.

Mick Foley walking out? Well, it's not like fans knew about the match before the show. They didn't pay to see that match, so it's not like they wasted the money. Lack of a main event sucks, but I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt and wait till next week to see where this leads to.

So Raw was decent, but not much more.

I totally agree that Foley shouldn't have wrestled tonight. That didn't make me happy with him being hyped to wrestle and then not wrestling. Foley's return/last run shouldn't be an unadvertised Main Event on Raw IMO, but I really didn't like the anticlimactic nature of the "Main Event" as it occurred.

So no, I didn't expect him to wrestle, but I also didn't expect them to disappoint me this bad.

Yeah see thats the problem, they painted themsleves into a corner by creating a no win situation.

I liked many parts of Raw though. The Jericho/Trish angle's cool, and I HOPE that Jericho being squashed by Kane goes somewhere. I mean, to some extent it makes sense (Jericho crosses the boss, being pissed at Trish), but it seemed to go nowhere after, as Nick has pointed out.

As boring as HHH is, I enjoyed the Handicap match. I'm a fan of three of the competitors, and Flair was great in his prime, though he's gotten less great with time. La R�s/Goldberg annoyed the fuck out of me, though the supsension of Goldberg was a plus. However, I'm sick of this penis-envy flag waving. Both sides. It's annoying the Hell out of me. Seriously, blindly supporting anyone who waves the flag is as Un-Patriotic as you can get, which makes Ross very Anti-American. I can't stand watching these guys hate on America with their unpatriotic acts every week. If our founding fathers had their heads this far up their homeland's ass, we'd still be raising the Union Jack. But enough of my political rant...

I also liked Cole getting his ass kicked. Much as I like him, there's nothing more satisfying then watching a cocky bastard get hsi ass kicked after shooting off his mouth.

What happened to Lance/Venis and The Hurricane? They were there for about 2 seconds this week.

Of course, as I said before, I liked the way Bisch got Orton pumped. It made for a great segway for him to go on to bigger things. Now, if only that actually happens, and is done well. We can hope.

If I ignore the "main event," I could easily say this was one of the best Raws in a while. Too bad I can't ignore it, so it kinda levels out. I'm just not as enthusiastic about seeing next Raw because of that ending, after the hype. I'll admit, they sruprised me, but I wasn't surprised in a good fashion.
