1 | 01.06.2025 | thedaynos | 3.0 | I thought this was gonna be a half decent show the way it started out, with so much energy as Booker T is still cracking me up and entertaining me with everything he does. "BookDust" is cracking me up too. But after like the first half hour there is nothing good happening. The 10 man nWo match sounded good until I realized shawn michaels wasn't going to be wrestling in it. That match had it's moments, like lesnar coming out of nowhere to clothesline RVD on the ramp and then f5's him on the steel floor, or as JR would say, "the concrete" lol. Lesnar also gets to f5 tommy dreamer on the "concrete" during the heyman segment. Nash injures himself badly in the 10 man tag and so the ending there was all over the place. There were a lot of weird things going on in the mix tag match, which are all caused by Jackie just not knowing wtf to do. This is a shame because Trish and Molly have had good chemistry together and putting on really solid matches with good choreographed moves. This match was a shit show though. The other matches were like whatever to me. The nWo promo threatening HHH was ok. Seemed like Nash is out of his league when trying to do mic work after shawn michaels. I'll say that I think the whole nWo thing has been played out for like 3-4 years now. While it was cool that they came back into WWF when they did, they are making the same mistakes that WCW made with them, which is that they're doing nothing but just "existing" and being boring. Having HBK join and be the mouthpiece has given it a little bit of life... well, a lot more life than it had when austin was beefing with them. But the bar is very low here. I can't remember how this plays out so at least I have this to look forward to. Another thing... Just a few months ago we did the WWF/E draft where they did the brand split, and they did that because there were just way too many superstars. Well now look at Raw, just a 2 hour show but they had 3 matches that featured Eddie Guerrero, and 2 matches that featured benoit and bubba ray. Then throw in a richards/flair match, and that weird mixed tag matchup? Surely they could do better than this lineup, right? RIGHT? Ultimately this show is skippable if you don't have the time. Maybe watch the mix tag match if you are they type to pull your camera out at a car wreck. This seemed like a sunday night heat show for most of it. |

3 | 26.07.2023 | Ruthless Attitude | 1.0 | A disastrous episode of Raw with two of the most infamous matches in the shows long history happening on the same night. The mixed tag is so bad it truly has to be seen to be believed with some absolutely terrible botches throughout the match which even the most casual fan would spot. Jackie Gayda just wasn't trained and was nowhere near ready for a match like this as she didn't look capable of any basic wrestling move. 10-man tag main event fell apart because of Kevin Nash blowing out his quad after just returning from a shoulder injury! Booker T vs Eddie Guerrero and Bubba Dudley vs Chris Benoit are both decent matches on paper, but are both cut painfully short. Shawn Michaels cuts an incredibly long and boring promo giving Triple H an ultimatum. Ric Flair vs Steven Richards is a waste of time and Jeff Hardy vs William Regal again is cut short for more boring promos. The Paul Heyman one also feels repetitive, but it does at least bring out Tommy Dreamer with his classic gimmick as well as a cool spot where Van Dam hits Heyman with a Van Terminator. That's possibly the only high point of the show. |

6 | 09.05.2023 | Kluuz | 3.0 | This was the episode I watched where I was like, Smackdown is the better show in 2002. The nWo stuff I couldn't care less about. Also Kevin Nash helped them finally realize this nWo was garbage. Tearing his quad in this match killed the stable.. |
7 | 09.03.2023 | kewf1988 | 4.0 | This was a mediocre episode most known for the infamous Jackie Gayda match and Nash tearing his quad in the main event. They should have never put her in the ring in the first place with that little training, yet they continued to do it in later years with Christy Hemme, Ashley, Eva Marie, Cameron, Kaitlyn, etc., all in the name of creating the next Trish. Somebody could have gotten seriously hurt. |
8 | 09.11.2022 | flightaker321 | 5.0 | Fine episode of Raw none of the matches are really good but there's some enjoyable segments on this show like Brock and RVD's segment, and Goldust various hilarious backstage segments. Also Shawn Michaels gave Triple H an ultimatum to join the NWO following the main event. |
9 | 09.04.2022 | Smi-48 | 4.0 | Wie zu erwarten holt der Boss aufgrund der unklaren Ergebnisse des Titelmatches von SmackDown! den Rückkehrer Rock ins Titelpicture. Danach ist die Zeit für Booker & Eddie deutlich zu kurz, hier was Anständiges abzuliefern. Trotzdem wird es dann recht voll im Ring, was sich auch mit dem zweiten Match nicht verhindern lässt. Das Titelpicture für den Tag-Titel wird somit recht unübersichtlich und unschick aus dem Boden gestampft. Backstage provoziert Richards den Nature Boy, was man später im Ring klären möchte. Zunächst aber siegen Trish und Bradshaw recht zügig, bevor HBK im Namen der nWo endlich wissen möchte, wo Triple H denn jetzt steht. In zwei Wochen sollte der sich entschieden haben. Danach rückt Ric Flair die Verhältnisse zurecht. Heyman freut sich auf Vengeance, denn der Gewinner soll das nächste Opfer seines Klienten Lesnar werden. Das wird dann aber doch erstmal Tommy Dreamer. Dank RVD kommt aber auch Heyman nicht unbeschadet aus der Geschichte raus. Quasi als Belohnung für die letzten Wochen und als Test für die nähere Zukunft bekommt tatsächlich Jeff Hardy den Europagürtel von William Regal. Der Mainer soll dann einige RAW-Fehden zusammen bedienen, wirkt dabei aber vogelwild und ziemlich planlos. Insgesamt ist das keine gute Show, auch wenn William Regal seinen Nervenzusammenbruch wegen des Titelverlustes tränenreich verkauft. |
10 | 07.03.2022 | Resident | | Too bad you can't rate matches shorter than 5 minutes. I finally found the match, Trish Stratus & Bradshaw vs. Chris Nowinski & Jackie Gayda. Possibly the worst match ever. Right in there with Michael Cole vs. Jerry Lawler and Jenna Morasca vs. Sharmell. It's just a little bit short, but man that Bulldog spot is hilarious. |
11 | 01.03.2021 | BLooD | 4.0 | Schlechte Ausgabe von RAW. Der Opener war schlecht. Vor dem Match gab es wenige Sätze von Booker T und Eddie was nicht der Rede Wert war. Kurzes Match. Nach dem Match kommen Benoit und Goldust hinzu und prügeln sich. Benoit vs Bubba Ray war schlecht. Eddie sorgt für die Ablenkung bis abermals Goldust und Booker T sich einmischten. Das Mixed Tag-Team Match war grauenhaft. So ziemlich eins der schlechtesten Matches der WWE Geschichte. Das müsste jeder mal gesehen haben. Schuld war Jackie die jeden Move verhaut. Natürlich buhten die Fans lautstark und Trish war auch ziemlich sauer. Bradshaw und Nowinski flüchteten mitten im Match. Was letzte Woche schon besprochen wurde griff die NWO nochmal auf. Sie beweisen das Triple H auf ihrer Seite ist während des King of the Ring PPVs. Allerdings klang das eher nach Erpressung als freundschaftlich das sie Triple H in der Gruppe haben wollen. Nash feiert seine Ring Rückkehr. Richards vs Flair war schlecht. Viele ehemalige ECW Wrestler bei RAW unterwegs so auch Heyman der darauf eingeht. Dreamer war sogar erträglich am Mikro. Er leistete die Vorarbeit an Lesnar während RVD den Rest übernimmt und sogar Heyman den Van Daminator verpasst. Regal vs Jeff Hardy war schlecht. Nach der Performance von Jeff Hardy letzte Woche ist ein Titel angebracht. Es ist leider nur der European Titel. Der Main-Event war in Ordnung. Das letzte Match der NWO. Man wird ja sehen was passiert ist. Nash war nur ein paar Sekunden im Match drin und verletzte sich wieder am Knie. Lesnar schaltete RVD auf der Bühne aus und HBK verpasste Booker T einen Superkick während Big Show ihm noch den Chokeslam verabreicht. |

13 | 30.07.2017 | Drop The Savage | 5.0 | Solid edition of RAW with a lot of emphasis on ECW Originals since the event was in Philly Starts out with Booker T in-ring. Guerrero comes out to confront and setup the first bout. Eddie still hadn't found his verbal chops at this point, but you begin to see the sparks shining through in his charisma. Unusual finish to this first match. It seemed mis-cued and even the victor (Booker. T) appeared to be legitimately taken a-back. Great post-match backstage bits featuring Booker. T and Goldust follow. Booker mistakes vendor for X-Pac, and takes him out, closing the segment with tasty comedic 'punch line' Goldust is also particularly on form with his comedy during this period of time - delivering a classic Ben Franklin spoof. These guys are great at making comedy enhance the show. Strange and sudden Jackie Gayda turn on Trish. Kind of made sense, still pretty weak. Leads to a match with Another akward finish. More ECW spotlighting with Stevie and Flair. The pre-match bit actually put Richards over somewhat; the match itself certainly didn't... Dreamer interrupts Heyman and Lesnar and looks like a killer and a formidable foe for Lesnar, at least for 2 minutes. Regal looses the European title as Hardy's push continues. Regal does a good job of playing the overreacting sore loser backstage. Finally a halfway decent, slightly overbooked main event which features our third, and most awkward finish of the night as Nash tears his quad and an audible must be called on the finish |
