Although I'll watch tonight's Raw 15th Anniversary show, I can't help but dwell on who won't be there: Sensational Sherri, the Fabulous Moolah (Mae Young by herself pales by comparison to how hard core Moolah was), Miss Elizabeth, Mr. Perfect....and...Chris Benoit.

I know there have been others who have passed unexpectedly during the past couple years (notably: Eddie Guerrero), and they've had tributes, but it's hard to celebrate.

*sigh* :(

(I really don't mean to be a downer, I just felt the need to post.)

The absence of Curt Hennig and Randy Savage are the most significant to me. Something about them just seems "Raw" to me.

Yes, that's true. I loved when Mr. Perfect was on Raw in the early days; also, the promos between Bret Hart and his brother Owen before their legendary match against each other.....Savage and Elizabeth...the more I think about it, the more people I could name.

Savage was in RAW like maybe 2 years tops. He's more of a SNME guy. Besides you can't have Savage and Hogan on the same show.

I think I associate him with it because he was there at the beginning.

Downer or not, I think it's very true.

I'd love to see them do an Oscars-esque montage of people who've been on Raw who are no longer with us, but that leaves them with the unfortunate question of what to do with Benoit. Leave him out, and people bitch that you left out someone who was a MAJOR part of the company. Put him in, and they're glorifying a killer. So they probably won't do it at all, to be safe.

....Benoit wasn't a major part of the company at all?? How in God's green earth did you come to THAT conclusion? O.o;

..Oh, right. Duh. To be fair, I wasn't actually expecting a rational explaination. Or any explaination. She tends to ignore those who aren't Kelly lovers. XD

Kelly is a beautiful young woman, and it disturbs me that you can't appreciate my divas. Johnny Ace will not be happy about this.

You've obviously not heard the stories about how "awesome" Moolah used to be.

That's why the poster said "hard-core" And shhh. I like how people think of Moolah as a grandma. I know if she was mine, they would've called DYFS on her (and I'm a little sad wikipedia doesn't have a better link).
