Raw 25/07/11

Did anyone notice how much Miz made sure everyone knew he was heel on this show? Attacks Mysterio after the bell and cuts a heel promo in the back, just to make sure last week's almost face Miz meant nothing!

I'd thought he'd attack Del Rio as well to stop him from cashing-in (if he did that, he'd be bordering tweener status) but it obviously didn't happen.

Two bits of information about RAW/RAW related things. Both from ewrestlingnews, can't be arsed to post the links.

Following RAW last night, Living Colour's "Cult of Personality" has jumped onto the iTunes Top 200 Singles at #140.

This week's edition of WWE RAW drew a 3.2 cable rating, with 4,805,000 viewers. The show did hours of 3.01 (3.0) and 3.4. That is a HUGE rise from hour one to hour two so that is good news for the company.

I still think ratings mean jack shit.
As there is a shit load of people who watch the repeats or watch online.

cm punk was fully willing to defend the title outside of the company, so i dont know if cena would even be interim champ in my books. 30 day rule is standard wwe procedure and the fact hhh seemingly rehired him, I struggle to see why hhh let the championship matches happen, logically. As the champ was back. Unless he loaded his music and was not supposed to be there...

I'm guessing he wasn't supposed to be there as Cenas music gone off halfway through and CM Punks music had that static crackle noise before it started and the tron had static too as though it was forced.

lol so it's colt cabana, sound tech guy.

But his belt had CM Punk label!

Hope he and Cena don't fight until Night of Champions maybe a Summerslam tag match Cena and Rey v Punk and ?. Although at moment wwe seem to think the title has to be defended every ppv.

Maybe HHH will say he was negotiating during Raw which is why the title matches happened.

Agree re HHH and R Truth and JR back on commentary, wouldn't mind seeing him with Josh Matthews. Hopefully will improve Lawler.

Del Rio with briefcase is exactly what happened to Miz last year which is disappointing,

With all this Best in the world stuff anyone else thinking a Jericho return soon?

How good would CM Punk and Jericho be together? Would love to see a rivalry between them or maybe even a heel stable.

Del Rio was supposed to be champion by now i think, but Del Rio Vs Cena for Summerslam has been scrapped as apparantly what they origionally had for Punk was deemed not good enough. Spoiler has potential cash in date roughly

Hadn't thought about it before but it doesn't sound a bad idea. I seem to remember an article somewhere in which Jericho said he wanted to return as a heel but with a new dimension to his character. If they are going to go with a Punk vs HHH feud down the line, a Jericho/HHH/Stephanie trio could be what Punk finds himself up against.

dont triple h and jericho try to avoid each other though?

Not sure but Punk v Jericho would be the total package, great matches and great promos. I'd love to see that feud

Think so as Triple H hates the fact Steph is a big Jericho fan.
