Match 1: Eugene vs. Rob Conway

Remember when this was a small-bit feud involving the WWE legends back around Taboo Tuesday? Eugene tries to get a handshake before the match, but Conway ain't having none of it so he slaps Eugene's hand away. Decent enough match between the two, with a lot of comedy spots, including both men running the ropes in a criss-cross before Eugene bails and lets Conway continue all by himself. The end comes when Eugene hits a spinebuster and goes for the People's Elbow, but Conway catches him in a powerslam. Rob attempts to go for the Ego Trip, but Eugene reverses it into a backslide and gets the three count for the win. You know, the scary thing is that these two could have one hell of a match if they were given like 12 minutes and Dinsmore was able to work as himself instead of as Eugene, cause he actually is one hell of a in-ring worker. A lot of people just can't see that cause of the stupid gimmick the WWE threw on him. Same with Conway. If you allowed him to really stretch his work muscles, you would be surprised at what he could do. I always said Conway was the work-horse of La Resistance back in the day.

Winner: Eugene

Match 2: Chavo Guerrero vs. Lance Cade

Yet another guy I feel sorry for, cause Cade could do a hell of a lot better than he's doing now if he wasn't stuck with the lame county cowboy gimmick. Shit, have Conway & Cade team together and ditch their respective gimmicks in order to be a pure wrestling tag team. Really solid match here by two good workers, with Cade getting busted in the nose early on. One pretty funny moment was Coach & Grisham saying that Raw was the A-show, Heat was the B-Show, Smackdown was the C-show, and they didn't even know that Velocity was still on. The end came when Chavo managed to reverse a vertical suplex attempt into a DDT. With Cade down and out, Chavo headed up to the top rope and came down with his version of the frog splash, made the cover and picked up the win.

Winner: Chavo Guerrero

Eddie Guerrero HOF Video: I'm glad they are putting Eddie in this year, though I wish they would also put some of the other superstars who have passed on into the Hall of Fame soon as well. People like Owen Hart, Miss Elizabeth, Ravishing Rick Rude, Mr. Perfect, etc.

Match 3: Tyson Tomko (with Snitsky) vs. Viscera (with Val Venis)

Short match with nothing interesting happening. The end came when Tyson told Snitsky to get a chair, but Snitsky had to drop it as the ref saw him grab it. As Tyson turned to face Viscera, he walked right into Viscera's version of "The Baldo Bomb" that A-Train used to use. It was enough for Viscera to pick up the win. After the match, Snitsky & Tomko argued, with Snitsky walking out on Tyson. Ohhh damn, my favorite tag team is splitting up!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!......just kidding. I could care less what Snitsky & Tomko are doing to be perfectly honest.

Winner: Viscera

Raw Recap: I don't recap recaps, so if you didn't watch it the first time, tough luck for you.

Match 4: Goldust vs. Trevor Murdoch

Did the fans really demand a rematch between these two, cause if they did, show me which ones so I can slap them upside the head. Murdoch gets on the mic before the match and says that the reason he walked out on the match last week was because he had something in his eye and that he's not a coward or freaked out by Goldust. Nothing interesting from these two that they didn't already do last week. The end comes when Murdoch hits Goldust with a back suplex with a bridge, but when going for the pin, both of Murdoch's shoulders are down, while Goldust manages to get one up. The ref counts three and Trevor thinks he won, until the referee tells him he didn't and that Goldust managed to pick up the victory. This leads to Trevor nailing Goldust with a clothesline after the match. Ohh yea, find more ways to keep this thrilling feud going.

Match of the Show: Chavo Guerrero vs. Lance Cade

Overall Thoughts: Well, while I'm glad that they didn't bother having squash matches with unknown or developmental talent this week, only the Eugene/Conway and Cade/Guerrero match was any good. Goldust/Murdoch didn't do anything new from last week, and Tomko/Viscera was too short to even really consider.
