THE ROCK PROMO- AWESOME!

CM PUNK vs. MARK HENRY- No rating. Great segment

VICKIE, SWAGGER, SANTINO, KERMIT, & PIGGY SEGMENT- Great! I marked out when Miss Piggy and Vickie went back and forth with the “Excuse me!”- “Excuse MOI!”

DIVAS BATTLE ROYALE- DUD! As a segment, I was actually enjoying this, with Beth’s commentary actually saving things, as it helped it feel more like a segment than a match (because, let’s face it, as a match, it stunk). Then they screwed it all up at the end. They made Nattie look like a beast, taking on three women at once, and only being eliminated sneakily from behind... but then they ruined it all by having Beth and Nattie back down! Nattie just took on THESE SAME THREE WOMEN BY HERSELF! With Beth’s help, she should be able to crush them! Beth and Nattie backing down makes no sense.

I would also like to voice my extreme displeasure with the booking of this match, as the cutest, most talented, best-costumed diva in that match was eliminated WAY early, instead of winning the match as she should have! To show my displeasure (and as a special feature for the limited, director’s cut, bonus edition of this review), here is my own running commentary throughout the first minute of this match:
Okay, match starting. Kind of schmozzy. Not much going on. Let’s get some action here… Rosa eliminated… Aksana eliminated… No No NO… phew... no NO… F*CK! What the hell is wrong with them?! Why are they keeping AJ down? Don’t worry AJ, you’ll get it eventually! AJ LEE FOR DIVAS CHAMP!

BEAKER, CHRISTIAN, & SHEAMUS- funny stuff, and actually had a bit of a story to it that affects other things on the show. Wow.

AIR BOOM vs. CODY RHODES & WADE BARRETT- 4.75/10

PUNK & JOHNNY ACE- Good

ALBERTO DEL RIO vs. THE BIG SHOW- 6.75/10. So The Big Show pins Del Rio cleanly. Doesn’t he, not Punk, now deserve a shot at the WWE Title?

PUNK & DEL RIO- GREAT! But Big Show still deserves a shot at the title.

MORE MUPPET STUFF- Not good. Beating up Gonzo is not going to get you heat.

SANTINO MARELLA vs. JACK SWAGGER (w/Vickie Guerrero)- No rating, okay segment. Was it stupid? Yeah. But it’s the Muppets (and Santino didn’t win cleanly) so I’m going to allow it.

ZACK RYDER vs. DOLPH ZIGGLER (w/Vickie Guerrero)- 5/10. I want to see these two get more time. Very enjoyable.

MICHAEL COLE PROMO- good

HORNSWOGGLE, MORRISON, PIGGY, CODY, & KERMIT BACKSTAGE- crap.

JOHN CENA vs. THE MIZ- 6/10. Not good enough for a main event. And the guy in the mask was R-Truth. Wow. I bet no one saw that coming.

Overall, not a very good Raw, but a very enjoyable one.

1. Divas Battle Royal: I was confused at first; I thought there was just gonna be a costume contest. I don't get why they decided to have a number one contenders battle royal without the competitors being in their actual gear; further degrades the importance of the Divas division.

btw, I felt the same way BRM did about AJ, but I felt that way about Axana =p~

furthermore, Alicia Foxx beat Beth straight up last week; why isn't SHE the number one contender? Hopefully, Eve gets her shot before Survivor Series and we can get a Divas Survivor Series match at the PPV (it looked like they were leaning that way last night with Foxx, Kelly, and Eve standing together; plus I thought Tamina would partner up with Nattie, but I guess I was wrong?)

2. the whole Gonzo thing was just to make sure he got his spot in; we all know Gonzo's trademark is him getting hurt in one way or another. He's always been my fav, so I was happy he got his spot in. What I thought they missed out on is a good Jericho rib when Fozzy Bear was standing there.

3. The Piggy, Morrison,etc segment was the same deal as the Gonzo one; it wouldn't have felt right if Piggy didn't get to punch somebody. Hornswoggle was the best candidate. And I like Cody bagging Kermit; Rhodes has done a damn good job character wise working comedy and still maintaining a vicious mean streak.

the only thing that came to mind is that the hand inside Miss Piggy was touching Vickie's boobs :p

I was totally marking out when AJ did the Kitana Fan lift.
And i agree with Badnewz here, why would this be a no 1 contenders match if they divas are not in their ring gear, Aksana wearing a long dress wouldn't be able to move the same as the others, or AJ had weapons.

I guess they're the new NO 1 contenders to the titles, not sure what to think about this.
