So Sheamus comes out and does he usual "nobody can be me fella" routine that he does. There was a funny spot where he got out of the ring and berated children, which I hope he carries on with. He says Randy Orton is a big crybaby who always gets what he wants. The GM sound goes off and the crowd boos just like usual. They fuckin' hate that stupid email shit.

The Raw GM tells Sheamus that he should sit in a throne and watch the rest of the show, because he's going to get to pick who he fights at Night of Champions... First up, Edge and R-Truth. Guess who won? For a second, there was a glimmer of hope for Truth but of course Edge wins.

"Sheamus, if you haven't beaten the Rated R superstar than you haven't beaten anybody"... Uh, Edge... he's beaten HHH, Orton and Cena. You haven't been champ for years as far as I can remember. STFU.

Khali vs. Jericho. Another real nail biter here. Does Sheamus only get to pick from the people that win? WHy not just pick the biggest loser? If I'm Sheamus I'll just pick R-Truth. He never wins shit.

Impressive win from Jericho, winning the match with the Walls and a tap. Then he talks about why Sheamus should pick him. Just more nonsense.

Milena comes out and wins. The Diva's belt should just be called the Melina Championship.

Miz cuts a promo saying that Cena should have come to him in person regarding choosing Daniel Bryan, Brian Daniels, whoever he is this week. He says that basically Cena pulled the whole thing to embarass him, which is true. So Miz is coming off as kind of the good guy which doesn't make much sense. On top of that, the briefcase that was dented by Daniel Brian Daniels head last week has aparrently been banged out. Brand fuckin' new.

Nexus comes out and the DON'T jump Sheamus. Pointless.

Cena vs. Miz. Another predictable match. The crowd is divided between Cena and Miz, which is surprising because Cena came out to a bigger pop than usual. Must be his super cool new shirt. ::rolls eyes:: Holy shit Cena just did a fishermans suplex... Dude learned a new move after how many years? Good for him! Miz looks pretty good. He's really starting to figure out what the fuck he's doing in the ring which is nice, but his character just bugs the shit out of me. Kill the fauxhawk, dude.

This night of Raw is typically boring. Nothing overly bad, nothing overly good. At least when you watch TNA you can crack some jokes or have a laugh at a particularly horrible storyline.

Miz hits a nice backbreaker to a neckbreaker. Looks like Miz is watching some of the guys from TNA and taking notes. Of course, super Cena kicks out. Miz hits the ropes during the STFU and Cena holds it to a 4 count, which to the best of my knowledge is a heel move.

Oh fucking boo Dainel Bryan Daniels comes out and fucks up what is the best match of the night. He puts Miz in that dope looking cross face. Daniel Bryan Daniels Brian is shaping up to be interesting if used right.

Next match is Orton vs. DiBiasi vs. Morrison.. It would be nice if Morrison got a clean win so guess what... he won't. On another note, Anthony Bourdain is still the coolest fucker alive. Back in Beirut and it's nice to get a true cultural view of the place. Anyway...

I know I'm in the minority but I consistently find Koslov and Santino to be entertaining and fairly good wrestlers. The Uso's? More like U-So's... as in.. You so boring.

Orton, DeBiasi and Morrison hit the ring, the usual back and forth with one guy out of the ring. Nothing special here for most of the match. The crowd seems uninterested. I'm under the impression that they don't really know know who to cheer for on this one. Morrison needs to turn heel or something. Ortans scoop slam is one of the best moves in wrestling right now.

Morrison spends 90 minutes of the match outside of the ring, gets on the top rope and gets nailed with an RKO in mid-fucking air. Orton wins.

Zack Ryder is a fagot, Raw still sucks.

Sheamus will be fighting the usual suspects in a "6-pack challenge" at NOC. Whoever the GM is, he sure doesn't like Sheamus that much.

Sheamus is my new favorite wrestler, thought it was awesome everyone ganged up on Barrett. Sheamus must own the record for quickest match after tonight. Raw wasnt anything special but pretty unique that theres a 6 man match for the title.

That 6 pack challenge, are the rules like a triple threat with more people or is it like a championship scramble? Eitherway odds are that a new champ will be crowned, I'm thinking Cena or Orton with a MOTB cash in, screwing whatever face card wrestler who wins
