Last weeks Raw was supremely disappointing from a wrestling fans perspective. There were nine matches, with three going about 9-10 minutes and four lasting less than 3 minutes each. None of those matches were particularly memorable, and some were just flat-out disappointing. Couple this with boring McMahon segments and a disappointing Undertaker appearance and you have a recipe for a bad Raw. Had the wrestling been better, Raw would have been much more watchable. Theres a ton of talented performers on the roster, so theres really no excuse for putting dull in-ring action on television. Considering that Raw is in Chicago this week, youve got to expect that WWE will step things up, because Windy City fans arent going to take to another week of Big Show countout wins and 63-second Dolph Ziggler defeats.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
