So let's discuss the complete thumbs down that was No Way Out shall we:
So we open with the Smackdown WWE title Elimination Chamber. Wow, Jack Swagger made it higher up the card than the Undertaker and Jeff Hardy. So, Edge lost pretty quick which was a good idea but then Triple H won....again. Very predictable. I would have had Hardy regain it. Jeff Hardy worked since 1996 for what? A 30 day title win?
Orton/McMahon was alright. not bad.
Jack Swagger/Finley was a good time to take a piss.
HBK/JBL is decent.
The Raw Elimination Chamber sucked really bad. First Kofi Kingston was taken out by Edge. So WWE told Kofi that "you suck so you have no business being in this match. So **** you". Since when did Edge become a Raw superstat again? Did he like teleport himself to the upcoming draft and then teleport himself back to 2-15-2009? Edge won the gold which was stupid. Kane got shafted again. He is a joke anymore. WWE has screwed this guy since 1998. Kofi got screwed as usual.
AI have a bad feeling that Mickie James is going to Smackdown when the draft happens. I read the blog and a few clues were in there. So WWE may put a actual wrestler on a brand when the models compete. The last womens wrestler to do that was Victoria and what did she accomplish? She jobbed to Bri Bella every week. Keep Mickie on Raw. Put Kelly Kelly on Smackdown damn it.
So really bad show. Good job WWE. Keep the bad shows coming. No wonder TNA is getting for fans

Well Raw pretty much sucked this week. What a great way to enter a Pay-Per-View. Let's see:
CM Punk/Regal sucked
The sx-man tag was watchable
The Orton stuff was really good
Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix were in the same ring again for like the 20th time this year. Sad Sad Sad.
Cryme Tyme lost to Pricless for like the fifth time this year
WWE kept Mickie off Raw again. WWE really has faith in ther models turned "Wrestlers". They don't like giving a real wrestler like Mickie the spotlight. Thats why WWE sucks anymore. Girls like Michelle McCool and Kelly Kelly get all the TV time but an acutal bred womens wrestler who is the most popular and talented in the company gets zip in ways of storylines. I was hoping she would have backed up CM Punk but nope. Whatever.
So no Way Out is Coming up and if tonight is an indication of the PPV then save your 50 bucks. Raw sucked!
Good luck on Raw tonight WWE. Hopfully we can have a good show that equals or surpasses last weeks. You brought Mickie back so keep on on the show. Be careful everyone
Much better Raw this week than the disgrace last week. WWE salavged the McMcahon/Orton Story with some great build-up to No Way Out.
Happy times are here again as Mickie James returned to Raw in a big way teaming with CM Punk against Layla and William Regal. Welcome back Mickie. That's all I want. Mickie has earned the right to be on Raw every week (even if it is not in the ladies division. I still think an Intergender Tag-Team Champion would be neat.)
JBL/HBK should have been held until Mania but that's ok.
We are hours away from this weeks Raw and I will not get my hopes up on a good show. The week is already spoiled by the news of Mike Knox qualifying for the Elimination Chamber. How really cares? No offense to Mike of course.
Will Mickie James appear for more than six seconds? Maybe a match or decent TV time. I won't get my hopes up for that either.
My deepest sorrow for Paul Bearer and his family for the passing of Pauls wife. My thoughts are with you.
There is still time to salvage the whole Orton/McMahon angle but I am sure WWE Creative will botch it all up and leave us with ****.
