Remember folks, the brown text is used for rhetorical questions. Regular “wishes” or “hopes” will stay in the white color. Thanks and I hope you enjoy!

- Let me start off with – I’m not upset that Austin is gone. I think (as I have explained in my articles on the newsboard), he is the representative of an era that no longer draws.
- I wish that this show gets the respect it deserves. I watched the whole thing from start to finish and it was electrifying (pun intended).
- I wish more viewers watched the show as fans – not as some “inside internet wrestling reporter” who thinks that they know everything. I watched as a fan tonight…I saw the whole thing from top to bottom for the first time in a LONG time – and I was thoroughly entertained.
- I hope that those who have the ability to produce writing on the internet don’t feel the need to bash the supposed Stone Cold set-up with Tony Garea…in actuality, that was a sign of respect and admiration for what the man has done. Vince wanted the crowd to pop for Austin one more time – and they did.
- I wish I could get on with my quasi-recap!
- Wait a minute, when did X-Pac get to be a decent performer? When did he learn a somersault plancha?
- I wish that the internet would stop harping on Rob Van Dam’s nuts. Yeah, he’s cool. Yeah, he’s a great wrestler. However, he is only entertaining in an athletic way. Like it or not, this is 2002 and this sport is about overall entertainment *cough* The Rock *cough*
- Is Rob Van Dam kidding me? Did you see his face when he was supposed to be selling that neck hold from X-Pac? I’ve seen more painful faces on babies with diarreha.
- I hope that the WWE continues to let the nWo have backstage vignettes of them speaking to each other like normal people. It adds a dimension (albeit fake) of reality to the show.
- How great was the Stone Cold speech that Vince McMahon gave? You know, if he ever wanted to get away from being the evil owner, he could play the real life Vince and be the benevolent man when it comes to his workers…
- Weren’t you just waiting for Vince to enter the Mr. McMahon character and tear apart Jim Ross for not having Austin at RAW?
- Hahahahahahaha!!! I hope Goldust keeps coming out with his ridiculous costumes! Hahahahahahahaha!!!
- I wish I was that Thighmaster that Molly Holly had…Grrrr!!!
- How great is it to see The Big Show laughing at Molly having a fat ass?
- WOW! I wish that Paul Heyman had been a manager in the WWE long before Brock came along! That man can make gold out of tin!
- Anyone feel the tension with that whole backstage nWo/Lesnar segment? That was some of the best backstage stuff I’ve seen.
- I may not like him, but I wish Chris Harvard the best in the WWE. He looked a lot more fluid in the ring than Maven has looked, in my opinion. By the way, good association with Regal. They compliment each other well.
- Is that Bradshaw? Where the hell did his career go?
- How great was it to see the crowd react to Eddie Guerrero’s tricked music?
- Could you not tell that Benoit was going to turn on Flair? Honestly, did you care? Great segment.
- I hope that the internet people don’t jump on Flair’s back and make him out to be too old or too slow. The man is good enough to compete and he gets asses in seats.
- I wish that Ric Flair would be used in a certain style of feud – not main event caliber, but second tier. He can play a huge role in putting over the younger guys.
- I wish Benoit had never gotten hurt.
- I wish they would drop Nowinski from Chris’ overall name. Yes, it’s his last name, but he’s not going to rise to the top being known simply as Chris Nowinski. The creative team has to have something better than that.
- Hey, Tony Garea! Alright! I wish that there was more mention of the former superstars that are still on as workers for the WWE.
- How great is Chris at being arrogant? Reminds me of someone I know…Razcyk.
- Alright! The Sarge has an on-air responsibility! Nice! Now let the man speak!
- Who does’t love Sgt. Slaughter?
- Ummm…is that D’Lo Brown? Is that the ex-European Champion, D’Lo Brown?
- I wish that John Lucas was watching that broadcast.
- I wish that Trish was given the respect that she deserves. She comes in nothing more than a piece of ass, a few years later she is the backbone of the Women’s Division and she is damn good, too!
- Yeah, put that piece on RAW! I wish Jackie would…well…maybe this isn’t the best place.
- Another great segment of ass-kicking from The Undertaker. I hope that this helps to kick Raven’s career and character in the ass as he gets the rub from The Undertaker.
- Don’t you know that with all of this cell phone cutting off, there is going to be a surprise at the end of RAW? Stay tuned kiddies!
- How great was Shawn in the announcer’s desk? And how nice of a compliment is Kevin to Shawn and vice-versa?
- I wish that more intrigue and expectation was put into every match on RAW like there was with the last match between Lesnar and Booker T.
- I hope that Goldust can take this enormous rub he’s getting from the nWo and use it to help his career.
- How great was that last segment?
- I wish that there were more open shoot style interviews like The Rock gave at the end of RAW.
- I hope that the internet doesn’t misconstrue this interview. This was not a worked shoot, this was The Rock telling it straight up and down.
- I wish, hope, pray that the WWE can continue to put on electrifying shows like that RAW. DAMN!
