Hey Guys and welcome to another Raw column, last night's show was on the back of Sunday's Cyber Sunday PPV where i thought that PPV was average so i thought Raw would get us back on track well it did for the 1st hour or so anyway.

I liked the beginning of Raw with Chris Jericho kicking us off in a rage, complaining that he was screwed out of the title by everyone including the fans, Austin and Adamle you name it, he then invoked a re-match clause and challenged Batista to a title match next week on Raw!, this then led to Mike Adamle coming out to the ring, now this is the first time i have saw emotion in Adamle coming out to the ring, he was smiling he had a spring in his step and he looked like a new character last night, thats something that has been missing since he was appointed GM- and last night i liked Adamle, he then went on to tell Jericho that he would take on Batista in a steel cage next week- Jericho for me was great again with his reactions and mic work and i am still upset that he was forced to drop the title so quickly- Now after Jericho left a furious Randy Orton made his way out to confront Adamle- he then demanded Shane and Stephanie come to Raw next week and fire Adamle and if Adamle isn't fired he will walk, this went on to Orton bashing Adamle as a failure even going so far as to say his family would think he's a failure this led to Admale slapping Orton- How good was this?- this got Adamle over and i loved that WWE creative made Adamle look like a real someone last night- anyway good opening segment and surprising i must say!

On a quick opinion on Stephanie and Shane coming to Raw next week, i think they will,  but i also see the return to television of one Vincent Kennedy McMahon- he last appeared on a 3 hour Raw episode in the summer, i reckon he will return next week, what do you think?

Next up we had a World Tag Team title match between Priceless and CM Punk and Kofi Kingston- if i was able to vote for this match at Cyber Sunday i would have picked this instead of the other match that took place, anyway i thought last night's match was off the charts all guys gave their all and it was very entertaining, i was delighted to see new tag champions crowned, it makes Punk look good again and he deserves some gold round his waist, the only downpoint in this match for me was Manu, he sits at ringside and does nothing, he does not fit in well at all with Rhodes and Diabese.

I loved Santino's joke on the mic last night when he abused Piper, Goldust and Honky while they were guest commentators, he says that all 3 looked like a pregnant woman on drugs!- anyway this led to a match between Santino and Glamahaas( Yes Charlie Haas dressed up as Beth Phoenix) it was hilarious as usual from Hass he impersonated Pheonix down to a tee, Hass has really evolved himself in recent weeks with this new gimmick, i just wish creative would let him win more often, anyway last nights match with Haas and Santino ended in a no contest after Honky took Marella out  with a guitar shot to to the head, overall a very funny segment and i am looking foward to see who Santino does fued with next- if they can give Marella the IC Title surely they could give Haas a run with the gold?

I have to admit i have really enjoyed the John Cena return vignettes on WWE programming!

Next up we got Batista being interviewed with Michael Cole, this segment could have taken place backstage as an interview as it only lasted as long as a backstage promo, Batista just thanked the fans for support and that he will be champion for a long time, was an  ok segment but WWE could have maybe fitted in another quick match here.

Now hour two began with a 6 Diva tag match with Kelly Kelly, Mickie James and Candice defeating Jillian, Katie Lea and Layla, another win for the good Diva's with Kelly picking up the win, with a face buster, surely it is now time for Kelly to get a run with the womans title she is on some run of victories in recent weeks and i think she deserves a run with the title, i have to say ever since Candice Michelle's return her fan popularity has decreased, i would personally now turn Candice heel to bring new health to her character.

Next up we had match of the night Rey Mysterio defeated Evan Bourne in a fantastic high paced match up, Rey got the win with a inverted roll up and both man shook hands after the match, my only downpoint of this match was after the bout Kane came out and took out Rey again, this fued surely has to end now it is now dragging on and both men need to move on, Mark Henry attacking Bourne was fine for me as these guys can start a fued on ECW, but Rey and Kane should now end.

Next up we had a small promo from Miz and Morrison challenging DX to a match on Raw next week, for me this was ok and thats all i can say about this.

And then the main event, now it was scheduled to be Batista and HBK v JBL and Chris Jericho but before the match we saw JBL attack HBK in the back and it forced HBK to miss most of the match, yea i am ok with HBK and JBL now fueding, but why could they not have done this attack next week or something, let HBK wrestle on Raw last night!, because of this we had to endure another 2-1 handicap bore match with Batista getting the win over JBL again via the Batista Bomb, yes Michaels did appear right at the end of the contest to help Batista win but the majority of the match was booked terribly and HBK had to be in their to help the match, The Raw Main event picture for me is poor and is lacking in realy quality- do you agree with me or not let me know?

Anyway apart from the main event last night, i thought Raw was good and i would give it a 6.5 out of 10, but Raw needs more quality in the main event and is Cena really the man who will be able to do this? or should some big name star be drafted over from Smackdown to help the brand out?

As always i would like your opinions on this column either via WWE UNIVERSE or send me an email to SevilleCFC@AOL.COM

Y 2 STALE- Jericho is being booked extremly poorly by creative, at least let the guy get a pinfall over someone, after all he is the best heel on the Raw Roster at the moment.

Until Next Time

Hey guys, i dont plan on talking much about Cyber Sunday as i would like to talk about The World Heavyweight Championship!

Last night's show for me was average nothing spectacular but it was ok, i really enjoyed Undertaker and Big Show's contest, i thought it was very good and Taker sold like hell and it was good to see the choke back!

Triple H and Jeff Hardy was good, not as good as No Mercy, however Jeff losing again and being pinned cleanely didn't do him any good and for me didnt do Triple H any good either, surely Triple H should have let Hardy at least get a DQ win or something over him or has Triple H's ego got the better of him again?.

Now the main event, i thought the crowd in this match bombed, it seemed so quiet during the contest, maybe it was because everyone thought Jericho would retain (including me),Now for me Batista winning the title was the wrong move by WWE, i do not want to see Batista with the title at all at the moment, let him wait a little while longer.

The reason i have for my opinion's here is that The World Championship is being treated so badly by management, yes it was the title that was on the shows WWE rivaled with in the past but surely they must start giving the belt credibility, for me that title has changed hands so many times in quick successions in the last year or so, CM Punk had the title for a month and half, Chris Jericho who is the baddest heel on the WWE roster at the moment is given 1 month as champion, c'mon thats a disgrace Jericho has worked his butt off all summer with HBK, and he is given a 1 month reign, that makes him look extremely weak.

The last time for me The World Title looked creditible was when Triple H had it during his Evolution days and thats a long time.

Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Hul Hogan, Sting and many many more legends have held that title with pride and i am just saddened that WWE just keep changing title holders in quick succession.

As always guys i would really like your opinions on this, or is it just me who thinks this? or is their any folk out here who agree with me?- give me your opinions on WWE UNIVERSE or send me an email to Sevillecfc@aol.com

UNTIL NEXT TIME

Hey Guys and welcome to my Cyber Sunday prediction column, whilst looking at the card for the PPV i really do feel that this event will deliver and we could very well be in for an evening of really good wrestling.

I am going to start off with my thoughts on The WWE Title match- i have a feeling that the public will go for Jeff Hardy to battle TripleH,however i would like to see a triple threat match but i dont see that happening,anyway after the beatdown Triple H got on Smackdown i am very sure he will overcome the odds and walk out still WWE Champion, now i don't see him pinning Jeff Hardy at 2 consecutive PPV's so i am going to go with Kozlov interfering and the match ending in a disqualification or a No Contest.

Prediction: Jeff Hardy wins by DQ.

I will go on to dicuss The World Heavyweight Title match between Chris Jericho and Batista next, now this match will be good, i also believe the public will vote in Steve Austin as special referee for the 2nd year running at Cyber Sunday.It's too early for Jericho to lose the title so i am going to go with Chris Jericho retaining the title with a little help from Randy Orton.

Prediction: Chris Jericho retains Title.

Undetaker v Big Show, should be a slobberknocker as Jr would say, i would like to see an I Quit match here but i think the public will vote for the Knockout match, Tonight The Undertaker will get revenge on The Big Show, and Undertaker will walk out the victor in this contest.

Prediction: The Undertaker

Matt Hardy will also defend The ECW Title at this PPV and i am praying it will be against Evan Bourne, infact their is no doubt that it will be Evan Bourne, i anticipate a very fast paced match between the two, i have a feeling that these guys will have good chemistry together,as far as my prediction goes, Matt Hardy will get the victroy over Evan Bourne and things may just hot up between the two in the coming weeks on ECW.

Prediction: Matt Hardy retains Title

Rey Mysterio will battle Kane at Cyber Sunday also, i did like their match at No Mercy apart from the ending of the match, i expect tonight the public will vote in a No DQ match here, so i see a lot of props being used in this match, Rey hasn't pinned Kane yet since this fued has started and i think the fued will end tonight with Rey Mysterio getting the all important win over the Big Red Machine

Prediction: Rey Mysterio

Tonight their is no doubt that Santino Marella will defend The IC Title against The Honky Tonk Man- this will be a very quick match and i am going to go all out and say that Honky Tonk man will win The IC title tonight then drop the belt tommorrow night on Raw!

Prediction: Honky Tonk Man (New Intercontinental Champion)

Tonight i believe that Priceless will defend their World Tag Team Titles against CM Punk and Kofi Kingston- i see a good match here and i am  predicting tonight new World Tag Team Champions will be crowned.

Prediction: CM Punk and Kofi Kingston (New World Tag Champs)

I am also looking foward to the Halloween costume contest!, should be great seeing all these hot diva's in the ring together- not sure who to pick here but i am gonna say Maryse!

Prediction: Maryse

And finally i expect Shelton Benjamin to battle R-Truth for the US Title. both men should actually be on the actual PPV anyway instead of wrestling before the show goes live on TV, that is why i do not see any title change on this one, they will keep a title change for either Smackdown or on tv  at a PPV.

Prediction: Shelton Benjamin

Well guys thats my thoughts on tonights event, as always i would like your thoughts on my predictions, by either contacting me via WWE Universe or send me an email to Sevillecfc@aol.com

Hey Guys and welcome to another Smackdown Review- last night's show was off the charts from start to finish-everything on the show for me ran superbly and i'll now get into it with my thoughts.

Last night the show kicked off with WWE Champion Triple H- I liked this opening segment with the Champion- he looked as if he was pissed off last night and he was- he then went on to bash Vicki Guerrerro calling her a hag lol and so on and he says he doesn't like being told what to do- Triple H was referring to having to face The Undertaker tonight so he could give The Undertaker a bit of beat down to satisfy Vicki before Big Show and Taker collide on Sunday at Cyber Sunday- anyway after all of this Jeff Hardy and Vladimir Kozlov made appearances to stake their claim that they will be WWE Champion after Sunday's PPV- the segment ended with Triple H making a statement by giving Jeff Hardy a pedigree and the Game stating that on Sunday he will walk in and walk out still WWE Champion- good opening segment and good build up for the title match Sunday.

Next up we had a quick diva's tag match  with Maryse and Nataylia v Michelle McCool and Maria- this match was to start the build up to the Michelle/Maria fued- during the match Festus came down to the ring offering Maria a rose with a sentimental orchestra behind him, it was like a scene from an Italian movie or something, very cheesy- anyway Michelle went to tag Maria but she was distracted by Festus and Maryse knocked McCool out and picked up a win for her team- a very funny segment and McCool now seems pretty annoyed with Maria as they had another backstage confrontation after the match with McCool telling Maria that she is going to have to focus more when she is in the ring, this has the making of a decent fued- and i also enjoyed Festus, he was entertaining espcially with the costume he had on.

Next up we had a cracking tag team match with Carlito and Primo who once again were so impressive taking on Chavo and Bam Neely- we all knew the outcome of this match from the beginning with The Champs picking up the win, this match was to continue the angle of Bam and Chavo having problems, all through the match both men were arguing with each other, the match ended when Chavo slapped Bam in the face and Carlito hit the backstabber to pick up the win, another very good match and a decent segment, although i thought Chavo was maybe going to turn face shortly but that appears to be scrapped.

Backstage Primo was flirting up Bria and then later he bumped into 'her' again- but this time the other Bria told him to leave her alone and Primo got all confused as she was up for it earlier!- it was a funny segment and a good way to get the Twin Bella angle sorted out!- after this Khali came up to Primo and Carlito and Ranjin Singh told them to watch the the next segment and they will see how a real man can get a woman- it was hilarious!

Next up we had another entertaining segment, The Khali Kiss Cam!- the segment began with Singh reading out fan letters everyone had sent to Khali, Ranjin read out a letter sent from a guy who says he wanted Khali! lol Khali's facial reaction's were funny and he was getting over with the crowd more and more as the segment went on, a Khali chant even started from the crowd to give the big man the confidence to Kiss this large girl who came into the ring- he then kissed the girl again and the crowd in Texas went crazy- another good segment and another good build up to Khali's face turn which has now happened.

We also had a good tag match featuring Mvp teaming up with Shelton Benjamin to take on R-Truth and Kung-Fu-Naki-Funaki has been repackaged and he came out dressed as the Karate Kid-he also impressed in the ring picking up the surprise victory when he hit MVP with a kick to the face and he got the pinfall- Funaki is finally getting a decent push and i am glad to see it- but poor MVP another loss for the ballin superstar- Gregory Helms kept appearing again all night at the side of our tv screens and once again he made fun of MVP- i would love to see a match between Helms and MVP it should interesting- i also find it funny that the announcers never seem to say anything about Helms when his face appears on the screen.

We also had The Brian Kendrick defeating Super Crazy in a squash nothing more to say on this one- I have to say Ezekial Jackson reminds me of Bad News Brown in the WWE in the late 80's early 90's does anyone remember him?- Ezekial sure as hell reminds me of him anyway.

We also during the course of the night had Triple H and Undertaker having a staredown backstage and also Undertaker giving a small promo backstage-saying that tonight him and Triple H will be going to the darkside but will both men leave?

Then we had our MAIN EVENT- The Undertaker v Triple H- i have to say i havent saw these guys compete against one another on tv for at least 6 and half years- if memory serves me right the last match these guys had was back on Raw in 2002 and if Triple H defeated Taker, Taker had to leave Raw and go to Smackdown and thats exactly what happened and The Undertaker has been on Smackdown ever since!- anyway last night we did get a fantastic 20min contest between the two- it was great seeing both guys competing with each other again, the match was great from start to finish with both men using all their in ring repotoires- this has been one of the best matches i have seen in free tv in a long time i have to say- both men worked their socks off- The match ended with Big Show interfering and taking out Undertaker causing a disqualifcation,Show pummeled Taker with right and lefts in the corner, Triple H who had just recovered from a last ride then got a chair and tried to take out Show but Show didnt feel the chair shot and he took The Game out with a powerful chokeslam and then hitting Taker with a few more chair shots before leaving- this made me now believe that Taker will be in a vengeful mood this Sunday at Cyber Sunday- great build up to the PPV here.

We then came back to Triple H who is just trying to pull himself up after the beating he took from Show and Taker and then Kozlov came out and took Triple H out again-the show ended with Kozlov standing over a fallen Triple H- Triple H certainly took a beating last night- so i am certain he will retain his title this Sunday at the PPV against whomever he faces.

Overall a magnificent Smackdown i would give it a 9/10 and i cant wait for the ppv this Sunday!

As always i would like your thoughts on this column via WWE Universe or send me an email at Sevillecfc@aol.com

Hey Guys- i didn't manage to write about this weeks Raw on Tuesday, as i thought the show stunk from Start to finish- the week before a PPV i would have liked to have seen so much more build up- i thought Raw was just thrown together so quickly on Monday and that is as far as i want to go by speaking about it.

Be back at the weekend with my Smackdown Thoughts!

Until Next Time
