    Speaking of pops, I didn't know what to make of the shockingly loud "JA-MIE NO-BLE!" chants during the Rumble after he immediatly went after Chuck Palumbo.

    Raw wasn't great and dragged at times, but I thought it did a very nice job in setting up No Way Out. An Elimination Chamber match + Cena vs. Orton = high buyrates during the hottest time of the year for the company. I'm wondering why they dumped the quality Kennedy vs. HBK feud out of nowhere and put Flair in especially after Kennedy eliminated Michaels last night.

    The elimination was the end of the fued, no?

    Good God man, look at those graphics and that fancy new set with all the blinky little lights an' shit. It's HD-X!

    (Yeah, I don't mind that it happened, but I don't get why it happened ... other than hawking a new T-shirt.)

    I vote for the Rock's entrance pop at the Raw tribute to Owen Hart the day after Hart died. It was a huge catharsis for the crowd.

    And why in the hell is WWE trying this ridiculous incest angle? I know we can't fully go back to the kayfabe era of babyfaces and heels, but it's crap like this that prevents me from wanting to allow my kids to start watching wrestling.

    For the finish:


    Use the related videos to watch other parts of the Rumble.

    So was I. But I got to watch the entire Rumble, the JBL/Jericho match, part of the Mysterio/Edge match, a couple of the vignettes -- the one with HBK, HHH, Kennedy, Flair and Batista was pretty good -- and the Orton/Hardy match.
    For FREE. Which I'm a big fan of.

    Can they force WWEShop.com down our throats just a tad more, please?

    Yeah, but I don't find it obnoxious so much as funny.

    SPOILER:
    Wow. This makes TWO Elimination Chamber matches at No Way Out -- Smackdown's featuring Undertaker vs. Batista vs. MVP vs. Finlay vs. Great Khali vs. Big Daddy V to challenge for the World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania. Also, Rey vs. Edge II was announced for NWO.

    Undertaker-Edge is a lock, no?
