Since the Celtics are massacring Atlanta, and the wife is already asleep with the flu... Raw it is! Anyone else watching feel free to post running commentary

Orton-Barrett rematch just announced... Barrett just said he 'gave permission' for Cena to say goodbye.
Why does he get to decide, and not the GM? That's a big pet peeve of mine.. wrestlers shouldn't be allow to make fed decisions... it just feels so wrong.

1st Match: R - Truth Vs. Sheamus in a "King of the Ring qualifier"
I'm thinkin' they'll be 3 more of these.. then 4 on Smackdown.
CM Punk joins the broadcast team.. big hug for Michael Cole, so I guess he'll be a heel announcer.
R-Truth is back to his old song, I guess they realized the new one sucked.

Has anyone thought of the possiblity of Cena as the mystery GM? Cole starts reading something and Cena comes out with a PDA and finishes Coles speech and rehires himself.

Pretty good match... They REALLY pushed Sheamus, and made Morrison sound like the 123 kid beating Razor Ramon.
Pretty decent, back and forth match, and despite the Sheamus love fest R-Truth came off pretty good.
Punk is decent on commentary, but not great so far.

Skit time!
Laycool gets stopped by security.. and Natalya claims not to know them.. that was probably enough of the divas for me, so that's good.
Santino and Kozlov backstage, sad about losing. Some chick backstages plays him a song, and kisses him.. he feels better.
Seemed more like they decided they had to put everyone on screen for a minute than useful promos.
Randy Orton promo... nothing exciting... he put over Cena some.
After the commercial: Ezekiel Jackson vs. Miz (KotR Qualifier)
So it's 42 minutes into the show... 1 match.

Miz begs off for an 'Anxiety attack' way to make KoTR seem important. Alex Riley subs for him and loses.. boring match... I sorta lost paying attention half way through. Cena in the ring for a promo.... very whiny... talking about his family and stuff... tears and everything. He actually sounded pretty sincere, if I was 12 I might believe he was gone... too long though. Barrett didn't turn up until he was walking out of the arena, where he did 'U can't see me' to his back, which was kinda cool. No fight, though.. no angle... nothing... just trying to sell Cena's really gone. Odd.

I have to say, my attention span is waning...
Daniel Bryan squashed Dibiase.. guess they're done with him? to qualify for King of the Ring. he'd be entertaining as King. The 'big' story was the Bella Twins like Bryan.
Natalia beats Someone (don't really know the divas) quick match... the put her over decently.

I really think that Raw ending should have happened at the PPV, but at least they got there.

Did not thnk Miz would actually cash in on RAW. Neat. I really think that Raw ending should have happened at the PPV, but at least they got there. Happening at the PPV would have been too predictable and ruined the "moment" Cena and Orton had.

Best part of night - Alex Kelly announces that he has some news to announce. Cole - "I bet he has some news."

I'm glad to see the Miz win the belt he's come a long way from when he first came in. The qualifying matches are getting old I miss the days when matches on a big show or PPV had a real reason to happen
