I totally agree Rey is one of the best workers. but imo that's only half of what makes people consider you a great. Inside the ring he is awesome but what about outside.
It's all about how people see you as a whole

Now comes the Mysterio Beatdown so hes out...

Rey's officially on vacation.

I like ribs.

another injry angle for Rey cmon

Cena out for the save?

I am totally digging Del Rio.

Not sure that WWE should throw everything behind him just yet, but, wouldn't be the worst thing they could do.

yup. knew couldn't go all the show without him.

We can still run for 10 minutes here...

I don't usually, but when once a week in these Raw threads I see people disparage Rey and it baffles me. No skin off my nose, really.

Wouldn't be the first time, Cena. Zip it.

He hasn't taken a shit in anyone's duffle bag, so I think he's good

Del Rio/ Cena

Cena's got some fire in him tonight. Morrison can take lessons from him.

im talking fans not backstage

so del rio's not a champ, but he just beat rey clean?

I'm really glad that the focus has stayed on the WWE Championship

He didn't even seem that pissed at Edge for cashing in his briefcase in the past.

There's somebody out there that Cena doesn't respect and secretly admire? :eek:

i was asking if thats how it would go as well

:-\ just a couple of minutes away from the 1st ever no-Cena on Raw until he showed up. I guess Cena also now took over the "pissed at everyone" thing from Punk.

Good Raw and main event especially how good Rey and Del Rio work together.

Yeah, but it helps Del Rio garner some extra heat.

Worked well for Punk against Hardy a few years ago.

Cena pg pissed off works

really enjoyed Cena there, dude is scary when mad

Del Rio is the man. Love his style.

I really enjoyed the angry, serious tone of @johncena . Might be about time more fans started recognizing his legacy of amazing matches.

Mick Foley and I are on the same wavelength

Has he resigned already???

Definitely entertaining in the ring.

I can't wait to see where the story line goes with Punk. Definitely gold provided it goes in the right direction and is followed through properly.

Overall thought it was a pretty good Raw. I think the Del Rio/Cena feud they are teasing should be good. I also really enjoyed the Nash/Punk stuff even though it's kind of a step down from what we've gotten from Cena/Punk the last few months. Truth/Morrison had a nice little match also. Looks like I'll be streaming Raw with Monday Night Football in the background this season.

Dosed off after the Punk/Steph thing, I miss anything of note?

Raw didn't feel that great to me. The Punk/Nash promo was great, but I'm not looking forward to a potenital match. I'll enjoy the ride TO the match, but not the match itself.

Also, the Divas surprised me by actually wrestling. For a Divas match without any real wrestlers, its was pretty damn good.

Otherwise, it was meh to me. Truth vs Morrison was okay, but it just feels like the wheels are spinning in place. I felt last week should have been the blow off.

Still not a fan of Del Rio. He's okay in the ring and fun to watch, but I'm just not into him. The match was okay and I liked the finish.

As for Cena, it made no sense for that promo to happen. It would have been a great promo, had it made any fucking sense. Why is Cena pissed at Del Rio? He won the title in a legit way, and had just wrestled Rey in his home town and won clean. But Cena has a problem with him.

Feels like the title scene is going right back to the same old shit. I'm also weary about Punk. He'll be fine until the Hunter feud wraps up, but after that I fear a push down the card.

I'll say an okay Raw at best.

Every time a heel cashes in, he gets shit for it from the face. It's common practice now.

If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have had that great Punk/Hardy feud

Doesn't mean it "makes sense" but it's just the norm

You were champ, what 3 times for 20 days?

Looking like a Short Order Cook at a Waffle House

I love Nash.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND SAY THANK YOU MR NASH.

I love it. I really think they could do something hot here if they dont make it ALL about Steph.

<font color=goldenrod>Excellent Raw overall. And yeah, I loved the fire Cena brought in his promo...even though it sounded like Cena hadn't even watched the show. "There will come a day when you have to defend the title"...uhhhhh he just did.

Thoroughly looking forward to next week.</font>
