Lame wedding and gm reveal. I would have wanted to see more legends. Good stuff other than that though. I liked DX, Punk turn, Rock, Lita, etc. Swagger is very gay.

I enjoyed Raw

Loved the DX reunion it was a lot of fun you could see Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and X-Pac really seemed to be happy about being there and it was just a fun segment.

I thought the six man tag was fun, Sin Cara at least didn't botch anything which is a big win.

I got a chuckle out of the AJ and Layla segment especially with Mae young's hand. Its so terrible but when you hear Jerry Lawler break character and laugh outloud its pretty funny. What a weird random moment.

Clay and Dude Love was whatever, Foley tries i just think he's kinda irrelevant these days.

Wedding/GM segment was bizarre but didn't mind it, not the greatest execution though

The Rock was a lot of fun, him on Royal Rumble should be a great way to start the year.

Christian and Miz was whatever didn't really care

Thought stephanie McMahon, Heyman, Triple H, and Brock Lesnar segment was really interesting, I am more interested in the match at Summerslam now.

I got a good laugh at the Heath Slater and Lita segment. Hope they do something with Heath Slater after this legends stuff ends. He's a great character.

The Brothers of Destruction segment was so botched by the six scrubs at ringside especially Jindar Mahal. seriously did he run into the ring on que or his own? If Taker and Kane had a 10 second staredown to show a big fight was about to happen and then they ran in, they could have gotten a much better reaction.

Punk vs. Cena was pretty boring but at least they turned Punk. it was so needed at this point.

I'm watching it now, and I've been entertained more with the DX reunion than anything else the E has thrown at us since Extreme Rules. The show is good so far. I did check out the last 15 minutes of the show.... very impressed with Big Show and now, hopefully, heel CM Punk. A feud with The Rock seems awesome.

RAW is 1000 was rather lackluster. The only time I really reacted to anything was when Mae Young and Hand/Son appeared. Even Punks heel turn was lukewarm at best.
Nice touch having all the legends beat down on the One Man Bland.
Wedding was such a non event, in all forms of the expression. Daniel Bryan was basically turned into a nothing, thanks to The Rocks involvement.
Steph/HHH/Heyman/Brock... yeah, lets here it for lazy booking, eh.

DX...Sans Chyna, reunion was sweet.... Pac has got some belly on him now. Guess his voice is still shot, thus nothing much from him. Billy Gunn looked over the moon to be back on TV.

I think I went into it thinking it was going to produce a solid show for the ages and go all out with the twists and turns, surprise returns and general mark out moments. What they delivered was simply a 3 hour Raw, that just happened to feature a handful of people from the past interacting with the current crop of talent, none of which walked away looking deserving of any more of my time(Other than Punk, I guess).
Miz & Christian was wasted on this show and its outcome just seems to further my view that WWE, as it currently stands, thinks the only way anyone gives a damn about title changes now is if the outgoing title holder drops the belt to a recently returning talent. Blahhhh to that form of logic.

6 man tag was another display of lazy booking. Having Rey and Sin Cara in a standard tag match would of been a better ratings grabber. But yeah, WWE you know!.

Swagger has got to ask for his release, he is out doing Heath Slater in the Jobber ratings, at least Slater gets an enterance.

Punks slow, Should I/Shouldn't I turn was way to formulated and didnt warrant the silent treatment from the announce team. Though, the sprinkling of Boos Punk got I guess told management that they angle played out well... yet it could of been so much more of a "moment" than it was. Rocks fish out of water sell job honestly had me baffled as to how his acting skills can command such a high fee in Hollywood. I mean, 2 minutes of laying on the mat with a dazed looked on your face, while trying to take in a lung full of air, by way of a fish face... yeah, slap 3 million on that preformance and give him an Oscar.

For the most part I thought it was ok.

DX reunion was awesome. The tag team match to me seemed dull and bland, but Sin Cara didnt botch. The wedding was just awful except for Slick. I wanted Flair to be the GM but we knew that wasnt going to happen with the lawsuits from TNA. I do hope they do something with Slater as well, but I was sad not to see Stone Cold stun him or something along those lines. Cena/Punk, I am disappointed. I wanted to see Cena turn heel, since Punk is the face who is the anti-hero, I give it six months before Punk is back to being face if this is a true heel turn.

I give it a 7/10 overall.

I dont think i could have asked for a better Raw 1000. I was a little let down by the wedding, but besides that it was an awesome show.

The Brock and Triple H segment might have saved their storyline. I thought it was awesome. I can't say enough great things about Paul Heyman's ability to make anything he's doing believable. He just makes everything interesting through his promos and mannerisms during them. Stephanie was great too. I was like.... The Bitch is Back! Brock and Triple H should be booked in all out brawl... NO DQ type of match. I don't think anyone wants to see a catch-as-catch-can match between those two. Thought I'd mention this segment of RAW since I've been bashing it a lot for its ineptitude over the last several months.

It was the first full Raw I've watched in years. The matches & segments were all pretty good but the over all nerfball vibe could still be felt through out. The glaring void of Steve Austin was a bummer but I know he recently underwent knee surgery. Like I've said before they operate purely on nostalgia now & sadly, the veterans are on a short leash when they do return. I'll keep rooting for WWE in the hopes that one day they relax the heavy scripting a bit & take the shackles of their talent. They have some great mechanics but they need to lettem loose at the mouth.

I give the show 6 outta 10 suplexes
