Raw absolutely sucked for 2 hours and 45 minutes, but that ending was just surreal. After starting as a pretty cool show (for about 3 weeks), NXT completely went to shit, and all they've done is bury all of those guys for months and months and months, and in doing so, essentially expose how none of them save Danielson (who they buried 6 miles under the earth) and Barret have any business being on WWE television. To have them come out like that and destroy everybody was something I never in a million years would have seen coming. I'm really interested to see where they go from here.

A lot of things don't really make sense when you think about it. Why would those guys team up, when they never showed an iota of comraderie during the competition? What is Daniel Bryan? One week he's teasing heel, the next week he's a face, last night again he's a heel (although I loved his "you're not better than me" stuff to Cena). And will they let these guys build any momentum? And if so, how? Because nobody but Bryan is anywhere close to ready for a high-profile match against an established WWE superstar. And it's going to take wins against 'real superstars' to establish the NXT guys as superstars in their own right. Who's going to be willing to job to these guys?

I think it could be a great angle that's really good for the WWE if they follow through with it, and maybe something good will actually come out of Batista leaving, and Orton and Undertaker going down. But the cynical side of me expects that Cena will come out next monday with a posse of his own and just wipe the NXT losers out...

Either way, it was a pretty fantastic bizarre fifteen minutes of television, and hopefully it's the start of a new direction for the company, and not a hotshot one off.
