10 Thoughts on Raw – 01.13.2009
by Victor Malar on January 13, 2009

Greetings Inside Pulse readers, my name is Victor Malar, and I’m the new guy on the block here at IP.

Starting this Friday, I’ll be doing 10 Thoughts on Smackdown on a regular basis, but I figure I’d do a test run on Raw tonight, so you can get to know me a bit.

Thanks to Matt for the chance to be a front pager (so you know who to blame if you think I suck).  If you read the forums at all, you’ll see me quite a bit pontificating about wrestling, sports, and politics.

Now, on with the column:

1.  Don’t worry about Mr. Jericho, I’m sure Uncle Vinny will make everything better next week.

2. You do know VKM will be back next week right?  I don’t think they mentioned it.

3. Miz vs Rey was decent enough, and hopefully with the Rey vs Knox match next week, they’ll put this thing to bed.

4. I know Regal vs Punk have had two straight lame matches, but something tells me it’ll be worth it when they do the rubber match next week.

5. Did Kane fight for Katie Vick’s honor the same way he did for Kelly Kelly (known to her friends as Kelly)?

6. Welcome back Mr. Dibiase, your place in the Legacy was waiting for you.

7. Randy telling TD Jr. that the punt was for essentially “tough love” was just so darn heartwarming.

8. Anyone think that Beth-Rosa will reach the heights of Sable-Tori or Trish-Mickie in terms  of stalker/borderline lesbian angles?

9. Usual good stuff from Cena and Michaels.  A so-so show becomes great with a half hour main event.

10. Anyone else get the vibe that this show was just a place holder for  next week’s “Welcome back Vince” extravaganza?

Well, one column down, hopefully many more to come if IP top men let me stick around.

See ya Friday.

VJM

    Couldn’t agree with you on #4 more, VJM.

    I too thought it felt lame but I was kind of hoping for a ref storyline. With all the WWE layoffs they should call the matches sh!tty until the layoffs stop.

    Not sure if that’s ever been done before but it would be funny…to me.

  • Danny Cox

    Great first bit here Victor!

    I also agree with #4 and as for the Legacy…anyone else hear the screams of “RACISM” eventually coming?

  • Victor Malar

    A few years back, they did a refs on strike angle.

    Featuring Tom Pritchard as the “head scab” official.

    Danny, I’m thinking a new Islanders tag team, although not sure ppl will cheer sim & manu… Plus am I the only one who noticed that the ref in the Kane/Orton match (who missed Kane’s shoulder coming up) was SECOND GENERATION STAR Scott Armstrong??
