OPENING SEGMENT- good

JOHNNY ACE & PEOPLE BACKSTAGE- kills off two birds with one stone by featuring both angles on TV, quickly.

BRODUS CLAY & SANTINO MARELLA vs. JACK SWAGGER & DOLPH ZIGGLER (w/Vickie Guerrero)- 4.5/10

JOHNNY ACE & JOHN CENA BACKSTAGE- good

CODY RHODES vs. R-TRUTH- DUD! Think of something NEW, WWE!

STOOGES & SANTINO- okay.

YOSHI TATSU vs. LORD TENSAI (w/Sakamoto)- Squash

CM PUNK & CHRIS JERICHO SEGMENT- Punk was GREAT, Jericho was good

WWE TITLE MATCH: CM Punk(c) vs. Mark Henry- no rating. Good segment

ZACK RYDER vs. ALBERTO DEL RIO- 3.75/10
Way too short

3 STOOGES SEGMENT- nowhere near as bad as I was expecting. The Hogan impression was actually pretty good.

MARK HENRY PROMO- good

BROCK LESNAR PROMO- wow. For all of his ring presence, Brock has almost none on the mic.

LOVE-FEST FOR TRIPLE H VS. TAKER FROM MANIA- bad. We don’t need a recap of the match and the emotions during it… because we all saw the match and felt the same way. This was a waste of time.

JOHN CENA vs. DAVID OTUNGA- 5/10
Too damn short.

AFTERMATH- good.

Overall, not a good episode of Raw. WWE really needs to step it up in the ring on their TV shows.
