A.A Norman of Tulsa, Okla. (7.0): Best match: London & Kendrick vs. Cade & Murdoch. Worst match: Hardy vs. Khali. Every time I think I'm ready to swear of WWE forever, from the time they fired Cryme Tyme to the rumors that Booker and Ric Flair are gone, I... for some strange reason... keep watching. I think I'm still smirking over the fact that Hornswaggle is the illegitimate son. We all know it was supposed to be Kennedy, and it was going to elevate him to elite stardom, but then he had to go and get suspended after speaking on national television so many times, right? Thus, Hornswaggle. I enjoy Sandman and Santino a lot, and their match was fun, so I hope neither of them are seriously injured. I hope Shelton Benjamin gets a chance to be promoted, after getting to compete with Triple H, because he's quite talented. The complete throwaway of a match would have to be Jeff Hardy and Khali. Jeff does his part, hits his high flying moves, and sells Khali's punches, but all Khali does is stand there. WHY does he still have a job... AND A TOP TITLE?!

Scott Meyer of Green Bay, Wisc. (2.0): Best Match: Nothing was even remotely entertaining. Worst Match: Cena vs Security. I live in Green Bay and the Resch Center is walking distance from my house. I had great tickets for tonight's Raw (third row, facing cameras), yet I am glad that I sold them instead of going. What is left to see on Raw? The roster is so thin they had to bring over Batista and Khali to fill time and put Steven Richards on TV! The only things I was looking forward to seeing live at this event were Cryme Tyme and Mickie James. Sorry Mickie, you're great, but I can't pay that much to watch you wrestle for two minutes. There was actual wrestling on this show, but it was all wrestlers who have never been given much of a push so no one cares at this point. If Cena wasn't in this "dad" storyline with Orton, I was really hoping that he would have been Vince's kid. The kid thing is sad because (1) the storyline goes nowhere now (is Shane going to beat up Hornswoggle?), (2) ha ha they teased incest how funny, and (3) once again we have Raw is Triple H where he is injected into all the major storylines and gets about 45 minutes of airtime on a two hour program. Since when does he have "fair" hair? Anyway, I give the show a 2.0 for finally coming to a smaller city like Green Bay, and you could tell the crowd was into it. Funny that I see other readers saying they are done with the WWE now - count me out as well. There is nothing left to see here (except Tripel H), I will call it a career after 20 year viewing career. So long WWE, my wife thanks you.

Jason Barnett of Lebanon Church, Va. (8.0): Best Match: Triple H vs Shelton. Worst match: Khali vs. Hardy. Not that I really disliked it, I just realize that as wrestling goes it wasn't great. I personally never thought much of the McMahon bastard, just because of the weird way Vince talked about it and because I'm fairly certain the law doesn't work the way it was shown. So giving me a laugh is a big step up in my opinion. It might be good for some humor later. Does Noble dare set anymore Leprechaun traps? Will Finley take advantage of the fact his sidekick is the bosses son to get some title shots. I'm glad they acknowledged the title changes with London & Kendrick and Cade & Murdoch. The women's match was pretty decent, though it was pretty obvious where it was going with Candice out at ringside but not wrestling.

Mike Williams of Atlanta, Ga. (1.0): Best Match: London vs. Cade. Worst Match: Pick any of the rest. I was really looking forward to watching tonight, especially being in Kennedy's hometown, and we get no Kennedy, imagine that. Instead of good wrestling, we get another week of backstage stories that go nowhere. Does the WWE really think anyone is interested in watching the Sandman beat the crap out of a guy who was supposadly a fan a few months ago? Santino is about as exciting as watching Saturday morning cartoons. I mean, even his entrance video highlights shows him getting the crap beat out of him. And why let Khali destroy Jeff Hardy like that? The IC Title is Raw's secondary prestigious championship, and we let the champion look like a total tool in the ring. Way to go, Vince ! The illegitimate child thing could have been the saving grace to this pathetic show, but of course we were treated to the Cruiserweight green midget from Smackdown. I was so hoping that the clues meant the return of Chris Jericho, especially when they said he loved to play the game. That, of course, referring to him loving to play hockey. Way to go WWE, I needed a reason to take a break from wrestling for a while, and now I have it.

PWTORCH FORMAT CONVENTIONS

For the sake of clarity to our readers (and to save us time editing these same things over and over), please follow these simple conventions when writing Torch Reax:

-Wrestlers teaming together should be connected with "&" symbol (e.g. Hunter & Michaels, Devon & Ray) or with a "/" (e.g. Animal/Hawk, Harris/Storm), but not dashes and not the word "and."

-To designate wrestlers who are fighting, feuding, or wrestling each other, put a dash (-) between them (e.g. Michaels-McMahon, Jarrett-Sting, Hogan-Andre) or use "vs."

-The word versus should always be abbreviated this way: "vs." with a period afterward (not "v." or "v/s" or "VS" or "VS." or any other way).

-Plus, it's just our policy, but we don't indulge wrestling promotions' strange spelling fetishes where they spell Raw, Smackdown, Heat, Impact, etc. with the haphazard capitalization of various leTTeRz. It seems very "junior high," so no Raw (it's Raw), no iMPACT (it's Impact), etc.

-Please try to avoid overuse of dot-dot-dots. If you have a thought that's "trailing off," you can use for effect, but otherwise, just use periods, commas, and our personal favorite, semicolons if you dare. We have always had a policy of only one exclamation point and no ALL CAPS. Let your words convey the meaning of your point. There's many to choose from out there.
