Thanks to www.omlineworldofwrestling.com for the results to RAW this week. Good TV show this week, with Regal/Kennedy, Chris jericho, and almost everything else right on point with everything from the matches to the feuds and angles. Trips vs. Orton was very good, better then the one-on-one time they got at the PPV, IMO.
