that pretty much sucks, but I was kind of getting tired of kennedy getting injured every time he did anything of mild relevance anyway... oh well I guess.
 
Ugh, Kennedy was one of the best guys on the mic WWE had. I want to know more about why he was released before I start complaining. If it's more wellness policy stuff then it's his own fault.
If he goes over to TNA I'll probably start watching.
 
Currently, TNA is far better than WWE. Now that Kennedy has left WWE, and will probably end up going to TNA, the gap is going to get even bigger.

Why on earth did they release him?
 
He got fired because he almost broke Orton's dodgy shoulder with a suplex in the 5 vs 5...on top of the steroids and stuff

Both shows suck, how is either far better that the other? Raw is the only "brand" which on a weekly basis is putting on crap anyway...

Hey that's my thoughts exactly man!

Kudos to anyone who gets that. Also anyone who likes wrestling should check out some Japanese Wrestling, that stuff is amazing.
 
Don't be silly, TNA is much better. The only thing holding them back at the moment is their insistence on keeping the World Heavyweight title on a golden oldy...did anyone see that Four Way at Sacrifice. I thought it was a fantastic match but it must have had a combined age of about 200 years old. I get the impression that Sting's relationship with TNA is based heavily around him always being Champion or No 1 Contender and I can't see him hanging around if that ever stops being the case. A year ago or whatever I would have welcomed that deal as Sting is...well...Sting but now it's getting a little stale.

I haven't seen TNA in ages I got sick of the whole things like the Prince Justice Brotherhood. So how was the PPV as a whole? I don't like to stream things.
 
TNA is much better than Raw in my opinion, Smackdown and ECW have been pretty good recently (in comparison) the past month or so, but Raw is just total bollocks. PPVs have been about as good as each other, even with Raw put into the equation. Granted I am not looking forward to Extreme Rules (but we said this before about Judgment Day and Backlash, right?) but Smackdown especially (from WWE's side of things) is pushing young stars like Morrison and Punk, and even Shelton Benjamin (although it looks like he's going down the tag team route now), so meh maybe thats why i'm enjoying it more. Maybe I should have broken down my thoughts more earlier to avoid any confusion.

Also, Kennedy isn't injured, his wrist is fine. There is a vid on his official website telling you all you need to know.

Yes and also Kennedy has a huge confidence boost as of late because he is leading the WWE Raw Poll. Hmm I wonder who voted for him that much?
 
So it's extreme rules tonight in the WWE universe, and it's been enjoyable so far, apart from one certan title change. What I want to know though is why Cena vs Big Show is so high up on the card again. The crowd are absolutely dead. Nobody cares. It's boring, not even the Cena fanboys seem to be interested in this match.
Oh and they just messed up what I assume is supposed to be an STF for the finisher; Big Show's leg was supposed to be snagged in the ropes, but it came out straight away so it was just a standard sleeper. That was the most boring half an hour of wrestling I've seen in a long time.
 
Cena/Big Show was expectedly bad; what I didn't expect was how completely pathetic Orton's title reign was, once again. if I had blurred my eyes, it would have looked like Batista was wrestling Cody Rhodes on Raw again.
 
I don't think I'm watching Raw ever again.
I'm going to watch ECW, random new talent that might be good and Koslov run through a jobber. Good stuff. =]
 
WCW in 2000 was pretty terrible. TNA has been consistently much worse than that for years.

Take a guy like Samoa Joe. They turned him from a killing machine into a retarded sack of shit with a penis on his face.

Happy about Punk winning. If they turn him heel, it would be awesome.
Straight edge Punk vs drug abuse Hardy should be interesting.

Years ago, these two were having amazing matches against each other in the indies. Now look at them.

edit:
of course, if you want good wrestling, watch ROH
 
Raw's booking is completely fucked. "OK, let's build up Orton by taking out the McMahons and giving him the title but then let him have a two month reign where he looks as shit as possible, one title defence 15 minutes of running away from Batista then let him lose the title to Batista in 5 minutes in a steel cage. Oh, and in between let him get beaten the shit out of by part time wrestler Shane McMahon and then 60 year old Ric Flair". Rhodes and DiBiase will look like gimps if they still hang out with him.

Cena beating Big Show was so predictable; both the outcome and the manner in which it was done.

Good to see Jericho winning and doing exactly what he said he would. Finally a heel that doesn't just talk hot air. Excited for Punk's heel turn as well, though Edge really deserves a longer reign, especially when there's no Cena/Batista/HHH/other big face around on Smackdown. See why Smackdown > Raw.
 
If anything can be salvaged from Raw now (they had to use Edge from SD! to make it interesting <_<) it's that hopefully Miz will get a push, and MVP will get at least a shot at the WWE title.
 
The only thing good about the Miz is his talent and John Morrison, imo. And @ SAN DIEGO SUPER CHARGERS, I agree with you about ROH, but I have only seen literally 2 matches ever.

I totally agree, those two are virtually the only reasons to watch Raw nowadays.
