Graphic: Punk/Cena next week.
(End Of Show, Raw runs 6 minutes over).
My Rating 2.7/10 A Boring show. With every match having already happened in the last month! Nexus was the only kinda new moving forward segment.
Best Parts
NOTHING!
50/50 Parts
1. Nexus segments. Where hit & miss the whole night. Liked how kinda moving away from PG w/ Punk on tron, lashings, kendo sticks and John Cena saying "ass" lol. Liked Punk's heelness. Segment tho where kinda long. With Slater & Gabriel leaving Nexus makes you wonder if Wade will have his own Nexus possibly with Michael Tarver & Skip Sheffield also returning. Punk standing on the tron was a cool moment.
2. Alberto/Truth okish repeated match. Liked the finsh and Alberto's promo.
3. HBK/Alberto. HBK took too long to get to the ring. Alberto's promo was good and liked HBK knocking him out.
Worst Parts
1. Video Recaps, Video packages, Commericals, Graphics, etc. waste of time annoying.
2. Same old, same old. Repeating matchs nothing really progress tonight besides Nexus.
3. Cole/Lawler/GM segment. Went on too long, boring.
4. 1st Tag Match. why this again! We saw this match on Superstars and this time it was very short. Only reason this was here was not to have only 3 matchs on a 2 hour+ show.
5. Morrison/Sheamus. Not again! Too Long, Too boring.
6. Main Event Tag. Repeated match again! Why not have Cole instead of Riley. Okish match, kinda boring.
Should you watch the replay on Universal HD, Saturday at 7pm or 11pm? No but if you have time watch Alberto's promos and Punk standing on the tron.
