Raw was pretty good tonight. The first big announcement was that Kevin Nash will return to action and indeed face CM Punk at Night of Champions. We all saw it coming but I don't think it's going to be a pretty match-up at all. Anyway, good opening promo for Raw and at least Punk is still getting a lot of face time even though he isn't the WWE Champion.
Raw had like 6 matches tonight as it was a Super Raw. Triple H announced earlier that Smackdown superstars will now be appearing on Raw, which I'm guess will effectively end this brand split. RIP brand split. Anyway, thanks to that, we got a FANTASTIC match to kick off the show in Ziggler/Orton. The in ring chemistry between the two is crazy and I could watch Ziggler/Orton fight at 4 straight PPVs and LOVE every match. Orton gets the win with a botched RKO but darn it was a good performance from Dolph. A legitimate World Title reign is coming for him, bank on it.
Miz/Punk have a good match, despite the DQ finish, AirBoom is born and the tag division will soon be reborn, Sin Cara does a Swanton AND a Lionsault, we get a typical Divas match, unfortunately, and Sheamus and Cena team up for the first time! I'm pretty upset that Del Rio wasn't even MENTIONED on this super edition of Raw, seeing how he is dang WWE Champion and all, but I read he had to renew his work visa, so that comes first. Oh well, at least we'll see him on Smackdown.
Anyway, let me cut to the chase. After Cena and Sheamus get the win, Triple H announces that Punk's match with Nash is scrapped (THANK GOD) and that Punk will now face Triple H at Night of Champions! The match that I thought would headline Survivor Series will now happen in 3 weeks at Night of Champions. This is the REAL match I want to see and it's definitely going to be the main event of the show. No offense to Del Rio/Cena but this is the feud that's dominating Raw right now. Just like last year with Nexus/Cena and Sheamus/Orton. Those two feuds will go on and eventually combine into just one feud. Well, I can't wait to see it and I really think it's a dream match. Will Punk beat Triple H? Will Nash get involved? Will we see a new NWO form? Who knows? I just can't wait for this main event at Night of Champions.
Well, Super Smackdown is tomorrow night, unfortunately I won't have a post until Wednesday morning since I work late Tuesday night and probably watch it then go to sleep. I'm not even going to look the results up, I'm going to watch it like it's live. I hope everyone watches it tomorrow so they can do this weekly.
