Take It From Someone Who Was There, Raw Delivered!

Svyato Rovenchuk The Toronto Made Classic by Senior Analyst Written on September 15, 2009

My journey to Monday Night Raw had a rough start as me and my dad ran into some traffic on the way to the Air Canada Centre. Then my dad got pissed at how much they wanted for parking so we had to drive to another parking lot. In the end we payed 10 bucks. We then walked over to the ACC to begin our Raw experience. It would be slightly delayed though after we saw the lines.

After we got past me and my dad went straight for the refreshments. Got ourselves a few drinks and some food and then we moved on. Next to come, was the gift shop. A woman and her younger daughter accidently bumped me, but apologized right away. It ended in them blabbing on about how Jericho is only using Big Show for success. I decided to keep my mouth shut. When I finally got to the front I see no Jericho shirt so I settle for second best which was CM Punk. To touch it up got a Hardy necklace too.

We made our way to our seats. Before the match started the arena was going wild. I even started a chant. I started shouting Cena sucks, Cena sucks, and it caught on. Eventually the guy that was suppose to sit beside me made it and luckily I didn't get one of those nuts who thought it was real.

Then around 8 : 15 we got treated to WWE Superstars before the Raw experience. First we had Sheamus issuing an open challenge to the ECW locker room. The challenge was answered by the small, but energetic Jamie Noble. Despite Noble's spirit, Sheamus defeated the man. A funny thing about it though is there was a guy not too far away from where I was sitting who shouted, "You suck, talk funny too." That cracked me up at the moment.

Second superstars match was for the ECW Championship. Toronto's own, Captain Charisma, Christian took on William Regal. Since I wasn't a fan of either guy I didn't really know who to cheer for, but since Christian is a Toronto hometown boy I cheered for him. Eventually it ended with Christian hitting a Kill Switch and retaining the title. Oh and what an ovation he got!

Last superstars match was Santino Marrella Vs The Masterpiece, Chris Masters. The match was a pleaset superise. Both men brought it and delivered. Santino was hilarious as usual in the match. There was a point when he even put the Masterlock on Masters himself. Sadly Chris broke out of that easily and locked in one of his own and put Santino out.

Finally Lilian came out to the ring announcing that we would go live on the score in 30 seconds. Turned out to be a lie, after 30 seconds she said we will be live in 2 minutes. Eventually Raw did come on the air ready to deliver what I hoped would be a night to remember.

The show started with Lilian announcing the return of Dave Batista. At first the man came out with a cast on his hand. He said that he was retiring. Obviously you knew Orton would come out and he did. He told Dave that he is the reason Batista is leaving WWE. Eventually it ended up with Batista taking off his cast and kicking Orton's ass. He also announced that he is going to SmackDown and that his last match on Raw would be a No Holds Barred match against Randy Orton himself.
