    AAHHH! Awesome. If that's not what you say it is, then his jean shorts have a lotta ironing starch on them.

    Okay, I'll bite. Not a bad Raw tonight. I really liked Orton's promo as twisted as that may sound. He really plays that heel role well. I'm looking foward to that Fatal Four Way match as I'll be at Raw live next week so I'll be sure to give you all a live update upon my return.

    Quick recap:

    Y2J beat CM Punk with an awesome Codebreaker. CM was trying to do a move over the top rope, but Y2J caught him in midair for the finisher and pin.

    Then, Santino came out and said he had some big secret about Santa Claus. Cena hits the ring, says whatever secret Santino has isn't true because Jolly St. Nick is there in the front row (true story). Cena does some talking, and out comes Trish.

    Trish and Cena win easily, and Toronto celebrates.

    Wish I could've seen that Codebreaker. Sounds awesome.

    Shit, that Raw is in ManchVegas, correct? I might be in attendance there if Santa's good.

    ManchVegas, it is. :)

    Won some tickets off some radio show. I wasn't planning on going, but thought, "What the hell, why not?"

    I found an online video of WWF St. Valentine's Day Massacre 1999.

    One of my favorite PPVs of all-time and my third PPV ever ordered after Halloween Havoc 1998 and Royal Rumble 1999. Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole, Raw's announce team tonight, are doing commentary while JR recovered from Bell's Palsy. Note the fantastic opening video, which is among the best and funniest the company has ever done. Also, Big Show's debut during Vince vs. Austin in the main event cage match, Al Snow and Hardcore Holly brawling onto the banks of the Mississippi River, and a classic Last Man Standing match between Rock and Mankind.

    Here's the link if anyone wants to watch:

    Word is that Batista has a torn hamstring and is out until at least June, hence the Orton punt of death last week, effectively writing Batista out of storylines. Raw main event for WM is wide open now.

    Trish Stratus hasn't wrestled a match in over two years, and she was still sharper than pretty much the entire women's roster.

    The Toronto crowd is always unique, but the "you screwed Bret" thing was incredibly lame. It's been 11 years, guys. Let it go. On the other hand, the support for Jericho was awesome.

    He's out six months for a torn hammy?

    What a wuss.

    And that's his third torn muscle in the last 3 or 4 years. (Read: "That's why you don't rely too heavily on a muscle-bound guy in his early 40s to main event your flagship show")
