He also used the flying headbutt in his match with Orton when he wasn't allowed to use the superkick.

I thought Raw was pretty solid, but I refused to read the spoilers beforehand.

HBK / Kennedy had some awesome wrestling in it and great psychology. Triple H / Flair didn't interest me at first but the match was great. Flair looked like he can still go and even went to the top rope without getting caught (about as rare as HBK losing clean). Are the writers still on strike in the USA? If they are it seems to have improved Raw considerably.

I really wanted William Regal to turn on Vince too, its fun to cheer Regal.

The womens match was reasonable for a womens match these days. Although given the people in the match, I expected better.

I'm glad Umaga went over as its painfull to watch Hacksaw wrestle nowadays.

I like the direction they are taking Orton / Hardy. When Jeff loses it at least seems like they aren't going to bury him. Brining in an injured Matt can help Jeff get over, and Matt has better mic skills. Its a bit like when Orton kicked John Cena's dad's head except that I care about Matt Hardy as he is a regular and not someone brought in for the sympathy vote.

Jeff going over Orton at the rumble and Matt Hardy winning the Rumble could be greatness, but I don't expect it to happen, ever.

I don't think WWE writers are allowed to be active members of the Writer's Guild while they are in service to Vince. Wasn't there something not too long ago about him wanting to trademark their ideas and make them sign contracts not speaking out about their ideas and stuff?

I just can't see Vince letting his writers strike on him when he HAS TO put out television every week. He would just hire new ones.

Actually, I thought they would save that for his retirement match.

Yes but surely Vince, Shane, Stephanie and some of the other backstage guys could put together a Raw pretty effortlessly, they used to do it all themselves anyway. Personally I think if WWE wrote their own stuff, wrestling would be much better.

I'd probably feel the same way but going to Raw XV makes up for it.
