raw(lite): bespoke suits and amateur tanning

Posted on August 1, 2009 by

The jury’s still out on the whole guest host thing. It’s a shrewd business move and I’m not necessarily against it, but it would have been nice to see a few more former wrestlers getting a night with the mic. … Continue reading →

Posted on July 30, 2009 by

Alright, so, before I get in to the matches let me just say…. POOR. PERFORMANCE. PHILADELPHIA. What was with that crowd?  They bearly managed to lift out of their seats until Jeff Hardy started Swantoning all over the place. And … Continue reading →

raw(lite): he came, then he left

Posted on June 28, 2009 by

Due to time constraints and with The Bash looming within the next few hours, this week’s Raw reminder will be in a shorter form than usual.  You gotta do what you gotta do! For those of us in the UK, … Continue reading →

raw(lite): almost as important as my birthday

Posted on June 21, 2009 by

It’s been a busy week round these parts. The lofty business of higher education and facilitating the graduation of the kiddies under my wing has been hectic beyond any kind of hectic I’ve ever experienced.  An Everest type mountain of … Continue reading →

raw(lite): hubcaps for frisbees

Posted on June 6, 2009 by

It’s 2am on a Tuesday morning. What was I doing? Pretending to sleep. What was Birmingham, Alabama doing? Cheering at Monday Night Raw. Randy Orton is in the ring, his foot-soldiers are firmly by his side and the steel cage … Continue reading →

raw(lite): mojo restoration

Posted on May 24, 2009 by

Much as I enjoy PPVs, they’re harder to write about than Raw and Smackdown. They don’t have the snappy structure of a weekly show. So I’m quite pleased to be back with Raw for this recap. We got going with … Continue reading →

Posted on May 15, 2009 by

Raw(lite): win and you’re in

Posted on May 8, 2009 by

A change, Sheryl Crow said, does us good. Although, if you listen to the rest of the lyrics from that song I think she may have been wasted when she wrote it. Anyway, yes, change. Instead of the usual 15 … Continue reading →
