OPENING SEGMENT. John Laurinaitis’ promo was okay. I popped for Akiyama’s presence in the pictures, though Punk was decent

WWE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE MATCH: Cody Rhodes(c) vs. The Big Show-no rating.

EVE MAKES THE BIG SHOW APOLOGIZE- I was enjoying this, but at the end, it felt like it didn’t go anywhere.

KOFI KINGSTON vs. DOLPH ZIGGLER (w/Vickie Guerrero & Jack Swagger)- 4/10
Too short.

KELLY KELLY & LAYLA vs. NATALYA & MAXINE- Basically a squash. Was there even a point to having Natalya and Kelly in this match? The most enjoyable part of this was Beth Phoenix using… *GASP*… LOGIC to make Lawler look like an idiot on commentary.

RANDY ORTON & SHEAMUS vs. CHRIS JERICHO & ALBERTO DEL RIO (w/Ricardo Rodriguez)- 6.25/10
The aftermath was predictable, but still good. Randy is a very bad babyface.

BRAWL IN JOHNNY ACE’S OFFICE- good

THE MIZ vs. BRODUS CLAY (w/the Funkadactyls)- 3/10
Extremely boring

WHOA! Didn’t see THAT coming! Paul Heyman’s promo was great. He eased right back into his character perfectly.

BIG SHOW & THOSE RANDOM GUYS BACKSTAGE- bad.

CM PUNK vs. DANIEL BRYAN & LORD TENSAI (w/Sakamoto)- 4.75/10
Not good enough for a main event. The more times I see the green mist onto the claw, the dumber it looks.

Overall, not a very good episode of Raw, especially in the ring.

I miss Impact, nothing happens.

I miss Raw, I miss Paul Heyman.

Bah.
