Mark1965 sent this in: After reading your report of last night's RAW, it is interesting where USA cut it off. I was there last night and to fill you in, HHH and Orton kept on battling back and forth. HHH ultimately throws Orton out of the ring. Then William Regal's music hits, and he walks out and tells the time keeper to ring the bell. He wouldn't do it. He tells him a second time, then a third time, finally yelling at him to do so. The bell rings and everyone is confused. Regal says that since the people of NJ disrepected him during his coronation, the people of NJ did not deserve to see the conclusion of the match. The crowd starts chanting KENNEDY, KENNEDY, KENNEDY, but he doesn't come out. Regal walks off the stage. Orton is walking up toward the stage, and HHH is standing in the ring. HHH then runs up the ramp and attacks Orton. Orton goes to the back and HHH comes back in the ring, asking Lawler what happened. The lights then came on, and we left the arena. It ended abnout 11:09.

In a blatant, and lame attempt at making sure he remained "heel" in Jersey, the WWE announced him as being from "Somewhere, Italy". Then they had him cut the anti-Sopranos promo for extra measure. Will be interesting to see if he's from Paterson, New Jersey next week.
Tom sent this in: Just wanted to put my 2 cents in. We were at the Raw card at the Izod Center. It was basically one of the worst Monday Night Raw cards to date. Matches were boring and 90 percent of them had no meaning. Vince is crying about the ratings being down well when you put on a card like that for TV then you better expect the ratings to be down.
