Woah I didn't expect for you to drop the extreme match bomb so soon in the earthly timeline. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Big Bossman was nice. I sense a Hair vs. Hair Match coming at Wrestlemania between Flair and Mr. Perfect. A great idea, and it's certainly hard to imagine 1993's versions of both men without their goldy locks. And oh, my... is that a HBK vs. Macho Man match coming? It makes perfect sense, due to Sherri's involvment with both men, not even to mention the dream match branding of that. Then, I really liked the finish of Bret vs. Luger. Elbows to the head and all, I love how you're trying to put some modern wrestling touches here and there in matches from 1993. That's actually one of the best things, at least, hypotetically about diaries. Trust me: I know writing a Royal Rumble Match is a pain in the ass and even though I wouldn't opt to write it the way you did, I actually dig the "key moment" format. Roddy Piper was a logical choice, when thinking about it, Ken Shamrock, though, shocked me. Well, Yokozuna was in the middle of a huge push and an undefeated streak, he hadn't been even knocked to the floor back then, so... it makes sense. I'm more hyped for Razor vs. Taker (and for other matches) than Bret vs. Yoko, tho.
A great Royal Rumble overall, better than what we were used to back in the day.

I'm more hyped for Razor vs. Taker (and for other matches) than Bret vs. Yoko, tho. A great Royal Rumble overall, better than what we were used to back in the day. Thanks for the feedback! Greatly appreciated! Yeah it's the very first time I wrote a Royal Rumble, I'll look into other options for writing it in the future because I wasn't exactly sure what the best method to approach it would be. So I played it safe and went with a Highlight method. I'm still debating whether or not to recreate the "Attitude Era" and have the WWF go full on extreme or morph it into a totally different product throughout the nineties (Part of me wants to turn WWF into something that presents wrestling legitimately and competitively. Bret Hart being the face right now helps that, Ric Flair being re-signed, Mr. Perfect on the roster helps build talent for that feel and with the addition of Ken Shamrock and other stars I have in mind I could definitely help build future stars who could provide that presentation.) , but I wanted to introduce the concept of hardcore matches to the audience. They won't be a regular occurrence and due to my booking style, probably won't ever be as regular as they were in The Attitude Era. But got to get the company out of this "Saturday Morning Cartoon" feel somehow. I was really torn on Taker or Yoko winning the rumble when i was coming up with what I wanted my storylines to be going into Mania. Whilst Bert/Taker is a match I want to do at some point, I feel like I could book the Bret/Yoko feud better than the WWF did (Which for anybody who hasn't seen Wrestlemania IX. That's not going to be hard to do) The fact that I already have Bert/Yoko on my Mania card and am working on Razor Vs. Taker for the Mania Taker match. I feel safe in saying my version of Mania IX will be better than the ACTUAL one was (Again...that's not hard...) ALSO HERE ARE THE PREDICTION SCORECARD! SORRY FORGOT TO POST ALONGSIDE RAW CARD! RAW WILL BE POSTED TOMORROW TO GIVE MORE TIME TO ANYBODY WANTING TO PREDICT

Money Inc. Vs. The Nasty Boys-Heels cheat their way to a cheap victory and Steiners save the Nasties from a post match beating.
Yokozuna Vs. Kamala-'Zuna destroys 1993 Kamala.
Crush Vs. Roddy Piper-Risky thing I'm doing here but I'm predicting a cheap victory for Crush, with the real story being how it happens and what it sets up for Piper at Wrestlemania.
The Undertaker VS. Papa Shango-I suppose I almost could have seen another cheap victory, be it count out or dq, for Papa Shango and maybe set something up for the future for the deadman but if Taker was in contention for the Rumble victory, he's not dropping even a cheap one to Shango here.

Monday Night Raw: 005 LIVE from Blue Cross Arena, New York
Final Rating: 76
Writer's Opinion: Ok so this is my highest rated show so far. I think Undertaker played a bigger part in that than I expected. I don't intend to exploit that simply to get higher ratings every week. I've been taking hits to my popularity each week and WWF has reduced in size. I'm not too disheartened by that. The roster hasn't got many major stars and a chunk of talent that still needs to be built. It's also pretty realistic to the trials and tribulations of the WWF at this time anyways so I'm not too concerned. I'm happy with my booking so far and I'll continue to focus on the style and the storylines I'm building. As long as we remain a viable, prominent wrestling product. I'm happy. Just don't expect this every week. We're certainly taking steps in the right direction. Our storylines are picking up heat. But there's still a ways to go before Raw can be a consistently quality show.

Crush VS. Skinner-crush demolishes Skinner.
Kamala VS. Ken Shamrock-New manager oversees a mostly dominating performance,where Ken wins, with a post match beatdown to prove to the rest of the roster how tough Ken is.
Rick Martel VS. Max Moon-Martel gets a dq win, via Piper interference.
Big Bossman VS. Razor Ramon-My roughie of the week. Bossman gets the unlikely win via countout, when Razor bails out of the ring because Taker's music plays.
