Vince Russo posted a new blog today, trashing WWE's edition of Monday Night Raw this week. He went on to say that the only reason fans enjoyed the show was because they wanted to "mark out" for former NXT Champion Sami Zayn. Here is a part of the blog.
"Everybody is running to the defense of the WWE, claiming that RAW was a great show on Monday night. WHY was it great in their opinion? Simply because an NXT wrestler that they all mark out for, Sami Zayn, made his surprise appearance on the WWE's premiere show. I can only imagine when Sami got introduced by Bret Hart and came out as a surprise through the RAW entrance—to the Internet Wrestling Community is was the equivalent of Jesus himself showing up unannounced at the Sea of Galilee. But to the casual wrestling fan—nobody cared—to them this was a jobber and nothing more–so they indeed turned back to hoops.
RAW is a television show and Sami Zayn is NOT a television star—nor—will he be anytime soon. Sami is an exceptional wrestler on a wrestling show, and the only people who care about him are those die hard wrestling fans who are looking for 5-star matches that the massive don't give a !@#$% about."
It's worth noting that in our post-Raw poll, 93 percent of our readers and followers gave Raw a thumbs up. This is a giant leap over most weeks.
