Man, was RAW a mixed bag tonight. Some things were horribly wrong to my "armchair booker" point of view. but the ending was very strong.


The continuing ridicule of Booker-T has been a very bad choice in my mind from the beginning. How do you elevate a star if you constantly make fun of him, and his moves? Bringing out a midget imitator was a horrible example of this. Not only was it ridicule, but it just helped to make Rock look like a jerk.


His match against Lance Storm failed to help elevate him either. A 3-minute almost squash doesn't do that.


The ending, though... Stephanie just proved how much better she'd be as a mime, but Kurt Angle's milk truck spot was simply priceless. Re-doing Austin's beer truck invasion hose-down with a milk truck was simply priceless, and his imitation of Austin's beer shtick with milk cartons left me on the floor laughing.
