Notes:

• Raw this evening had a lively crowd. They were hyped from beginning to end.
• Believe it or not, I am beginning to like Mike Adamle as the new Raw GM. I can see him becoming a great heel.
• I liked seeing my favorite Diva Mickie James in action. Beth Pheonix attacks her from behind after her match with Katie Lea. This sets up another rivalry with Mickie James. Santino Marrella comes out to cheer on his lovely lady. I like the whole angle with Beth and Santino. It's very funny. I enjoyed the segment between Santino and Adamle, as well. Or is it Ad-em-le? Oh yea....what is up with Santino's newly grown Uni brow?
• The handicap match with JBL, Chris Jericho, and CM Punk was highly entertaining. It was nice to hear the crowd chanting Punk's name.
• I don't understand why HBK only has a promo for Summerslam. He's not performing? Oh yea...and about that eye injury....if HBK can comeback from a back injury, then I think that he can comeback from an eye injury like a piece of cake.
• I'm getting board of this Kane and sack thing...can we get that moving along, please?
• John Cena bitch slaps Batista....daaaammnnnn!
