I was gonna put this in the Raw thread but I noticed that there may be a POSSIBLE SPOILER so I made this it's own thread:
Here are the injury updates from wrestleattitude.com:
Update on Injuries on RAW, Why Triple H Was Drafted, JR Upset, More
User Rating: / 0 PoorBest Written by Steve Carrier Tuesday, 24 June 2008 03:42 Rey Mysterio was called over the weekend and told he needed to be at RAW. Mysterio was in Mexico doing promotional work.
For those who missed RAW, Randy Orton, Shawn Michaels, and Ric Flair all returned.
The announcers had no idea who was being drafted and it took them all by surprise. That came straight from Vince for sure and was kept secret from them all.
The Melina injury appears to be legit. We hope to have more later tonight or tomorrow.
Batista was nearly knocked out when him and Edge collided head-to-head. He was obviously busted open the hardway.
Jim Ross was legitimately not happy with his move to SD! as evident by his facial expressions. Michael Cole was more shocked than anything and seemed to feel bad for good ole' J.R. You could also tell Mick was really taken off guard by it as well.
As noted on us last Tuesday, it was either Triple H or John Cena going to SD!. Triple H must have agreed to the move because Cena had been the original plan. It looks as if 'Taker is headed to RAW with the ending tonight so that keeps the two off the same brand to avoid issues. That explains why Cena wasn't drafted.

If HHH is really going to SD, this means that Edge is dropping the belt to Batista. and if not, to HHH very soon.
I dunno..this opens to many possibilities. I'm intrigued. but no matter what edge isn't holding the belt for much longer...as usual.

Very interesting updates.
It was pretty obvious that Melina was legit injured, but I wasn't too sure about Batista's head being split open; that's pretty crazy right there. I just don't see Jim Ross on SmackDown lasting very long, as really, it should have been the other way around (Lawler to SD, Foley to Raw). As for Triple H moving, we'll just have to wait and see if this is for real or 2004 all over again.

im hoping batista takes the title from edge, and triple h just brings his belt to smackdown. i really cant handle cena with the title for another year... im not even a cena hater, i just do not want to watch that again.

Same here, I'd rather have had Lawler go to SD.

I thought the Melina injury was worked, considering it went to a Double DQ which so conveniently allowed two announcers to be traded. Then again, they could have had a different finish planned and come up with that one on the spot instead, but I somewhat doubt it.

Same here, I'd rather have had LawlerMaria go to SD. and Eve to Raw. Only have Maria decide too be a wrestler and Eve become Raw's announcer.

The reason I figured out it was legit was Melina's reaction to Natalya when her and Victoria had begun beating on her and Mickie. Victoria was going all out throwing punches while Natalya's looked weak and careful so as not to hurt Melina while she was down. Also, the cluster finish should have been a clue, as well (much like Orton's injury at ONS).

For the Melina match, I'm guessing they had a planned no contest finish but obviously just threw the match out here. The action was probably going to spill on the outside eventually or have a run-in from maybe Katie Lea and Michelle McCool. But with this injury they just threw the match out. Natayla was doing really weak punches on Melina since she was actually hurt. And everyone looked completely clueless.

Never got that excited in RAW, ever, and I just saw the last hour.

Why are Undertaker and Triple H kept off the same show?

Melina kneed herself directly in the face. Also, she said "I'm sorry" to Mickie and Mickie looked legitimately concerned and was throwing real elbows to fend Victoria off.

Shane or Steph are my hopes on who tryed to cripple Vince. They were trying to get him to stop giving away all his money so that they can't get it when he dies. Maybe HHH and Steph working together and maybe a second coming of the McMahon-Helmsley era.
