WWE/RAW - THE LATEST

December 14, 2005

Help Wanted.

Contrary to popular belief, being a TVgasm recapper isn't all strawberries and Astroglide. In fact, it can sometimes be downright tedious. For me, those times are every Monday night at 7:00, when it's time to watch RAW…

Tonight's episode started with a recap of the Trial of Eric Bischoff. It's done just like an episode of The People's Court, complete with music and graphics, except there's no Rusty. That's probably because Rusty died back in 2002. However, judging by the Katie Vick storyline RAW presented a few years back, they're certainly not above digging up a corpse if it'll get a few cheap laughs. Fortunately for Rusty (and us), they decided not to cross that line this time. Otherwise Vince would've spent the night pulling various items from the decomposed back-porch of America's favorite bailiff.

The Bermuda Triangle Ate My Tivo.

Evidently, unbeknownst to me, someone in the copygodd household (my money's on Beavis, our cat) decided they'd override my Season Pass for RAW and watch The Bermuda Triangle instead. Which means there'll be no RAW recap this week. However, that doesn't mean we can't laugh at some pics from this week's episode: The Trial of Eric Bischoff. Who knows, you may even like the recaps better this way. It would certainly make my life a little easier...

Some Sperm Is Bigger Than Others

Back on July 27, I did my very first RAW recap for TVgasm. And like tonight's RAW, it took place at the Gund Arena in beautiful Cleveland, Ohio. As I said back then, RAW in the Gund is like a televised homecoming for me, as I grew up just down I-71 a bit, in not-so-beautiful Columbus. Of course, a lot has changed since that fateful night. For one, Gund Arena is no longer Gund Arena. Now it's the Q (short for Quicken Loans Arena). For another, I've lost 10 pounds. Unfortunately, some things haven't changed a bit. John Cena still sucks. Nobody respects the mullet. And overall I'm still a fatty-fat-fat-fat.

Tonight's show opens with Eric Bischoff standing in the middle of the ring. He looks a tad upset. Coach says Eric's been that way all day. Why is he being such a Gloomy Gus? Is it because Team RAW lost last night at Survivor Series? Because he lost last night at Survivor Series? Or because he's missing the Indianapolis/Pittsburgh game on Monday Night Football? You make the call.

When You're A Jet, You're A Jet...

After last week's very emotional tribute to Eddie Guerrero, I was curious as to how RAW would recapture their momentum heading into this weekend's Survivor Series PPV. Little did I expect they'd turn to the musical stylings of Stephen Sondheim and Jerome Robbins for inspiration. But it's just this kind of risk-taking that makes RAW so great...

Eddie Guerrero Stole My Recap.

I've taken some heat from the readers here for not having a decades-long knowledge of professional wrestling. Like I've said, I haven't been watching it all that long. But I have been watching long enough to have my favorites. And Eddie Guerrero was certainly one of them.

Eddie Guerrero passed away on Sunday, November 13th. He was 38 years old. He is survived by his wife Vickie and daughters Shaul, 14, Sherilyn, 9, and Kaylie Marie, 3. The cause of death has not been determined.
