just reading the 1st post and they are right. even back then I remember felling like Raw from the end of Wrestlemania 17 to the following year was a let down. they absolutely dropped the ball on the "invasion" angle. then they get the nWo and put them in some crappy angles. the only highlights were their debut, and the rock/hogan promo the next night.

the nwo vs Austin and rock on Raw was some real :mindblown: shyt. you have all those stars that have NEVER been in the ring together and you just have a handicap match on Raw? WACK.

What's crazy to me is people still deny Russo when you can clearly see the difference to when he got there and when he left
Yeah let's ignore how trash 1999 was, 2000-X7 after he left being the best year in company history and Russo tanking WCW during that same timespan:heh:

Y'all KKKing wannabes:camby:

Did you not watch WCW when he got there? As for the OP question RAW in 02 is the definition of underachievement, they had a loaded roster and had no idea how to book them. It also didn't help that this was the beginning of HHH's reign of terror.

I’m running back 2002 on the Network, and only thing worth watching pre brand extension is Big Evil Undertaker fukkery (beating you Arn Anderson and David Flair, dragging Hoegan on the motorcycle, etc)

Funny that Unmasked Kane fukkery was the only reason to watch Raw in Summer 2003 :russ:


As much as Jericho talks about being first undisputed champ, he sure ignores that he was put on the back-burner in his own road to WM story for more McMahon-Helmsley fukkery, and basically keeping the belt warm for HHH, who lost it the very next month to Hoegan :russ:

Still insane to me that they had the most stacked roster in the history of the Fed in 02, yet the first like 6-7 months were :trash: They had Rock, Austin, Hoegan, Flair, Taker, HHH, Angle, Jericho, Hall, Nash, Big Show, Booker rookie Brock, RVD, the Hardyz, Guerrero, Benoit and more and shyt only got good at Summerslam and beyond once Heyman got the Smackdown Six and Brock cooking in the fall.

RAW was still :trash: though
