The Raw Commentfest for 01/18/10

I wrote the Raw Deal late last night, posted it at about 2am and you can read that on the blog. The link is at the right. I didn’t have time to do Commentfest in the same night, so it gets its own exclusive post here on the blog. This will be my permanent routine now. It’s easier for me this way.

Thoughts from the Facebook friends aka CommentFest
Here are some random thoughts from some of my facebook friends (just head to Facebook.com/thejohnreport) after I asked for some comments about the show. The comments in green are from the commentfesters while the comments in the brackets are from me. We got just over just under 1400 comments this week.

Ladies and Gentleman. children of all ages. ARE YOU READY??? For the best 2 hours of live internet comments assembled every week. LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLETS GET READY FOR COMMENTFEEEEEEEEEST!!!!!!

To continue on my Afroman parody from last week…Verse 2 of “Because Raw Got High”!

I was gonna win the Royal Rumble…but I got high.
I was gonna main event WrestleMania…but I got high.
Now I got eliminated by Santino, and I know why (Hey-ey!)
Because I got high…because I got high…because I got high! (Was better last week, but I appreciate the effort.)

The John Report: The Raw Deal for 01/18/10 (“The Flame”)

Welcome to the Raw Deal. Commentfest to be added in the AM.
————–

Live from Knoxville, Tennessee this is the Raw Deal…
(No banner here. There’s one for Commentfest and one at the very end that I think you’ll like.)

I usually go from the start of the show to the finish. This week, because the end of the show disappointed me so much I ended up writing the main event and my post show rant first, so these other parts are going to be shorter because of that. Makes sense? I don’t know. Does Raw make sense? Not usually. Let’s get to it.

Crazy Old Man Vince, The Undertaker Works Monday & HBK
Vinny Mac comes out ranting about Bret Hart. He’s basically saying he’s coming back on Raw again. We won’t say when, but keep watching because it could be anytime. I thought it was this week. Guess not. Undertaker comes out. He looks pissed that he has to work more than one day a week. He tells Vince that he was there 12 years ago in Montreal and that he screwed Bret. You go, girl. I mean man. Deadman. Anyway, Vince leaves and out comes Michaels. Undertaker says he has nothing to prove to Shawn since he beat him, so he won’t accept his match at WrestleMania. He says, how about tonight? Shawn says no, he wants it at Mania. Undertaker says fine, win the Rumble and you can get me at Mania because I’ll still be champion. Shawn says I guess I’ll do that. Undertaker says fine. Shawn says swell. Undertaker says okay. Shawn says alright. Undertaker says let’s make a deal to take the summer off after the Mania match again without giving an explanation? Shawn agrees to that too. They’re very agreeable. I don’t want to claim 100% accuracy in my recap of this, but I’d say I was close.
