NOC is shaping up

Another average Raw. Once again, Punk/Nash/HHH have an amazing promo. We finally found out who send Nash the text message and it was..... Kevin Nash. Yes, Nash sent the text to himself. His excuse? He was trying to make 'this' fun again. I can't blame the man and I don't know if he made it fun again, but he definitely made Raw relevant in the last couple weeks. Well, in the end, Triple H couldn't take all the lies from Nash anymore, so he punched him and fired the man. Later in the night, after Punk defeated R-Truth, Triple H came out again and announced that their main event match at NOC will now be No DQ AKA it's not going to end cleanly. Punk comes right back saying that if Punk beats Triple H, he has to resign as COO of the WWE and Triple H agrees. So, Punk's losing right? Can't wait to see this match.

Beth is getting her rematch at NOC and The Awesome Truth will make their debut as a team at NOC when they face Air Boom for the Tag Titles. That's our opening match right there. That's another match I'm really looking forward to because of its potential. Not only does it have the potential to be a great match, it also proves that WWE is serious about reviving the tag division. Did you see all the guys talking backstage together last night? Could you imagine Reks and Hawkings or McIntyre and Christian teaming up? It's the exposure all those guys need. Or maybe they just wanted to show heels talking to other heels backstage, who knows? Anyway, can't wait to see Air Boom VS Awesome Truth. I don't really care who wins the match, but I don't think it would be smart to take the titles right off of Air Boom, just saying. Oh, and while Punk/HHH may be having the best dramatic promos, Truth is stealing the show with his comedy. Pairing him with The Miz was pure genius.

It was nice to see a Zack Ryder promo package. I like the guy so I'm all for WWE using him on the show. Is this the start of a push for the man? Here's hoping. Orton absolutely destroys Heath Slater. He did to Slater what Cena did to Barrett. And the main event was a nice 8 Man Elimination Match and it was actually pretty good. Faces get the victory and for the first time in a while, the show's ending doesn't involve CM Punk. Punk/HHH is still getting the main event regardless. Anyway, like I said, pretty average Raw. Punk/Truth and the main event were the only good matches and the opening and the Awesome Truth promos were both entertaining in their own ways. Also, how is Del Rio not wrestling after missing BOTH shows last week?

Well, we got 5 matches for Night of Champions 2011 and I'm not going to lie, I like the matches. We're just waiting for the IC and US Title matches, which are probably going to be Rhodes/DiBiase and Ziggler/Morrison (please GOD) respectively and if they announce those two matches, the PPV is a must buy for me. So, here's my card adding the two middle title matches.
Punk/HHH
Del Rio/Cena
Orton/Henry
Ziggler/Morrison
Rhodes/DiBiase
Air Boom/Awesome Truth
Kelly/Phoenix

What do you think? Are you liking the NOC card or does it seem like a dud? Anyway, that's the weekly Raw post for the week. I'm trying to watch some tennis before work but these darn stupid rain delays are killing me. If this keeps up, everything is going to be moved to tomorrow which will push everything to Monday like when Del Potro beat Federer. I don't know if that's better for me or not right now. Whatever, have a safe day and I'll see you early tomorrow morning for the Smackdown talk.
