January 11th 1993 marked the first episode of RAW, for the next ten years, it continued to grow strong, the RAW Tenth Anniversary (from "The World" in Times Square, New York, on January 13th 2003) is a celebration of course of the matches, antics, and other moments that happened on RAW.

The first award to be given is for the "RAW Diva of the Decade", with the Heart-Break-Kid (HBK) Shawn Michaels presenting it, the nominees being Sable (the first WWE Diva to be featured in Playboy), Trish Stratus, Lita, Chyna (a very strong bodybuilder who turned to wrestling - incidentally also featured in Playboy).

The second award to be given is the "Don't Try This At Home" award, presented by Shane McMahon (Son of the Owner and Chairman of World Wrestling Entertainment, Vincent Kennedy McMahon), the nominees being Big Show, for the 'Chokeslam From Hell' in which he chokeslammed The Undertaker through the ring, Jeff Hardy, for his contribution in TLC (Tables, Ladders & Chairs) 2002, The Dudley Boys for the powerbombing of Mae Young (a very old former women's wrestler) through a table, and Kurt Angle for a moonsault off a steel-cage back down into the ring below (which incidentally he only hit the ring mat, as Chris Benoit, the superstar he was attempting to moonsault onto, rolled out of the way).

During their brief appearances to introduce some of the greatest moments in RAW history, Jonathon Coachman and Stacy Keibler introduce a clip showing a number of past superstars who as Stacy puts it "looked good on paper", and in doing so, she mentions "a dentist with bad teeth", and this is of course referring to "Isaac Yankem DDS", and this is why at the mention of it many fans correctly shout out "Kane" as it is the gimmick that the wrestler now currently known as Kane had before.

The next presentation is by "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, but it is not an award, but rather to introduce a video clip remembering past superstars that had passed away, those superstars being "Andre The Giant" Andre Roussimoff, Joey Marella, "Flying" Brian Pillman, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, Owen Hart, Gorilla Monsoon, Yokozuna, and "The Britishs Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith.

The fifth award is presented by Michael Cole and Tazz (a former wrestler), the commentators of the WWE's Thursday-night show "SmackDown!" (which incidentally is actually recorded on a Tuesday, and I once saw live when they came over to the UK recently), and is entitled "Shut Up And Kiss Me" (or "On-Screen Romances"), the nominees being Mark Henry (a former World's Strongeste Man turned Wrestler) and Mae Young, Chyna and Eddie Guerrero, Lita and Matt Hardy (who were incicdentally going out in real-life until recently when Lita was found to be cheating on Matt with fellow superstar Edge), Mr. McMahon and William Regal (no, not a gay storyline, thtat one was done by Billy and Chuck, but because of when William Regal joined the "Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club" in which he literally DID kiss his ass in order to 'keep his job'), Stephanie McMahon (the daughter of Vince and at the time of the RAW Tenth Anniversary, the "General Manager" of SmackDown!) and Triple H (who incidentally are actually married in real-life now).

The seventh award is the "RAW SuperStar of the Decade" and is presented by Brock Lesnar (a superstar at the time, but who left to try to have a career in the NFL, something which he has failed in doing), the nominees being Mick Foley, Bret "The Hitman Hart, "The Game" Triple H, "The Rattlesnake" Stone Cold Steve Austin, and "The Phenom" The Undertaker.

One of the awards not presented on the actual night was "Now That's An Entrance" for the best entrance, the nominees being Goldust, Chris Jericho, Degeneration-X, The Brood, and The Undertaker.

Of course, people who aren't fans of wrestling are going to have no interest whatsoever, but it is a must-have for any die-hard WWE fan, for them to wallow in nostalgia, saying "I remember watching that!", and it is of course the reason I bought it myself (although admittedly I didn't become a fan until a few years later, and even then I actually started with WCW before moving on to the WWF, now known as WWE).
