Ok, this isn't wrestling news at all. But I thought I'd start things off because this board looked so cold and empty.
All I wanted to say really was that I watched RAW (one of the three times or so I'll watch it a year
) and I was pleasantly surprised! The Matt Hardy Vs Edge match was one of the best matches - especially for a non PPV show - I've ever seen.
They did a couple of predictable things, like Matt's mooonsault onto the ladder which is inevitable in any match where Matt gets near a ladder, but apart from that it was fairly good. For example, I thought Edge was going to throw Matt Hardy off the stage... he didn't, Matt reversed. Matt then tried to do a twist of fate, which I thought Edge would reverse. He did, I was right. And then when Edge went for a spear I said "Matt will move and Edge will go running off the side! Awesome!!" but while Matt did move, Edge stopped himself from going over. And then when Matt tried to push him off, Edge reversed it, but then somehow Matt reversed again and they both went down together.
That's a horribly drawn out description, but it was just a really good match. Rarely have I seen wrestlers looking so foolish by punching wildly at nothing because they're so beaten.
Finally something to be proud of in the WWE. Although having said that, I turned it off as soon as that match finished, so that was all I saw about the show. Except for Ric Flair covered in blood. That's probably a good thing too. Whoo!!
