 21/7/08 - Las Vegas, Nevada. The Raw opening video is played showing the Raw Superstars including Elijah Burke, Batista, WWE Champion John Cena, Beth Phoenix and Kane, after the video plays, the usual pyro display happens as Jerry “The King” Lawler and Michael Cole welcome everybody to the show. The music of Shane McMahon hits and he comes down to the ring to a great reception from the Nevada crowd. He gets a microphone from Lillian Garcia and he talks about Raw being in Las Vegas tonight. He says since we're in Vegas, the champions of Raw will be putting it all on the line tonight. He says every championship will be on the line tonight in a gauntlet match. Except the WWE Championship. The crowd begin to boo but he tells the crowd that John Cena will be out here tonight, keeping a close eye on the fatal four way that will be contested in the main event. Shane says the winner of the four way will go on to face Cena for the WWE title at Summerslam! 1) D'Lo Brown defeated. WWE Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho, CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, Santino Marella, Bryan Danielson and Lance Cade to become the champion - Nice surprise to start the first match of as D'Lo Brown returned to in ring action as the first man in the guanlet like match, the rules of the match were simple, Royal Rumble rules untill the final two men where a singles match would begin, D'Lo started of against Lance Cade and he seemed to have things going his way till Santino Marella entered the match and the heels teamed up on Brown. Bryan Danielson came out next and evened things up and CM Punk came out next, Santino Marella ended up getting eliminated by CM Punk's GTS with an over reacted dive over the ropes from Santino. Rey Mysterio came out next but it didn't really matter about Heels/Faces any more, everyone was fighting each other at this point. The final man, the Intercontinental Champion, Chris Jericho made his way down to the ring as Rey Mysterio surprisingly eliminated Mr Money in the Bank, CM Punk. Punk didn't seem to happy but made his way to the back. Jericho and Cade teamed up on Danielson & Rey as D'Lo was struggling to get up to his feet, eventually Bryan Danielson eliminated Lance Cade as Jericho eliminated Mysterio leaving only three men. Jericho and Danielson battled it out, D'lo got in on the action as well, even connecting with the Sky High on Jericho but failed in throwing him over the ropes, recieving a rake to the eye for his trouble. Eventually Jericho eliminated Danielson with the springboard drop kick leaving only Jericho and D'Lo Brown, before the referee had the chance to ring the bell, Shawn Michaels jumped the barricade, slid in to the ring and connected with Sweet Chin Music on Chris Jericho. The referee then rung the bell to state the singles match had begun as D'Lo was making his way to the top rope where he connected with the Lo Down to capture the Intercontinental Championship. The camera cuts to the backstage area where we see Katie Lea Burchill. She begins talking to someone who we can't see. She seems pretty excited, and then the camera turns around to reveal Paul Burchill and William Regal. She says she is glad Paul's ECW contract expired, because she missed him. She talks about William returning and she tells him he's sorry he had to leave beautiful England for the dump that is America. They get heat as we fade to black. 2) Elijah Burke defeated. A Local Jobber - Before the match kicked off, Burke spoke about how it's unfair that he wasn't put in the Intercontinental title gauntlet, and he's stuck facing some random punk. Anyway, Elijah continued to look impressive while on Monday nights, as he made quick work of his opponent as he nailed him with the "Elijah Express" for the victory. The camera cuts backstage and we see CM Punk with Todd Grisham. Punk says that he doesn't have any hard feelings towards Rey, as he feels that he made it seem that way. He says Rey was the better man out there, and he congratulates D'Lo on his title win. Chris Jericho is shown walking backstage holding the back of his head with Lance Cade closely behind. He meets Shane McMahon and demands a match against Shawn Michaels. Shane grants Jericho his request, but he books the match for Summerslam. Jericho tells Shane he wants him in the ring next week, but Shane walks off. Jericho knocks a few things over in a tantrum. 3) Womens Champion Mickie James defeated. Melina, Victoria, Beth Phoenix, Mickie James, Maria and Katie Lea Burchill to retain the Womens Championship[/color] - Maria and Katie Lea started the match off, with Maria showing great improvement in the ring. Melina was next and she eliminated Maria quickly. Beth Phoenix stormed to the ring and immediantly took out Melina and Katie. She almost eliminated both girls at the same time, but they managed to fight her off. Victoria then entered and began to fight with Melina. The champion was last to enter and she took on all the girls and eliminated Katie before pulling the rope down, sending The Glamazon over and out. Victoria took a tumble out after both Melina and Mickie tossed her out, and then the bell rang and Mickie and Melina had a good match. Mickie put Melina away after a victory roll. Afa Jr and Sonny Siaki, collectively known as The Samoan Fight Squad are shown standing together. They say that next week they will be debuting on Monday Night Raw. 4) World Tag Team Champions The DiBiase Brothers defeated. Deuce 'n Domino, The Highlanders, Cryme Tyme, William Regal & Paul Burchill and Jerry Lawler & "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan to retain their titles - Cryme Tyme started of the match against a returning William Regal and his partner Paul Burchill (who was actually drafted to ECW but that's WWE booking for you) the match was under tornado tag rules, one team member got eliminated, the whole team was eliminated. the third team in were Deuce n Domino who were followed by the surprising entrants of Jerry Lawler and Jim Duggan. It was random as Lawler just left the announce booth and got into the ring. The Highlanders then made their way to the ring as JTG was thrown over the ropes, meaning him and Shad were eliminated, the next team eliminated were the legends as it were by the world tag champions who had just entered the match, The Highlander Robbie was then eliminated by Paul Burchill before William Regal was eliminated by Deuce & Domino leaving D&D along with the tag champions, surprisingly, they had a timely match that was eventually won by the DiBiase Brothers when they connected with a Doomsday like attack only with a crossbody instead of a clothesline. When we return from a commercial, John Cena is backstage with Todd Grisham. Cena speaks about the main event between MVP, Batista, Kane and John Bradshaw Layfield. He tells them all that if they want some.. COME GET SOME! WWE Champion John Cena came down to the ring and joined Michael Cole on commentary. 5) Montel Vontavious Porter defeated. Kane, John Bradshaw Layfield & Batista to earn a WWE Championship match at Summerslam - Main event of the evening that saw back and forth action from all four men, on a side note, John Cena was on commentary seeing as he wasn't actually part of the show at all, which makes a change. Kane looked strong tonight and was showing heelish behavior, choking MVP, ignoring the referees count and such but it was Batista who seemingly went nuts during the match, grabbing a steal chair and smashing it over the head of MVP, getting himself kicked out of the match, he didn't stop there as he delivered a thunderious spear to "The Big Red Machine" Kane. Kane struggled to get back to his feet but when he did he recieved a Clothesline from Hell by JBL but JBL wasn't looking strong afterwards as Batista slid back into the ring and delivered a Spine Buster to JBL before security finally pounced on Batista, While this was going on, MVP crawled on top of Kane and got the three count making him the number one contender to John Cena's WWE Championship.[/center][/size] |

nice to see this still going. D'Lo winning the IC title was cool, although a little too soon imo. Match looked great, full of stars. Burke defeating a jobber makes me happy. Hopefully he gets pushed far and a feud with D'Lo later on would be good. Liked the main event of Raw, something different with MVP in it. MVP/Cena should be a good one. The graphics look pretty good, Edge/Taker will be an awesome match and hopefully end the feud. HBK/Jericho.. do I need to comment on that match? And looking forward to MVP/Cena, even though I think Cena will win; it would be interesting if he didn't.

 me, how fast has this been running, I went away for one day and five pages? Oh, scratch that. Good opening segment, but I would of been happier with a Raw Roulette style segment. Good gauntlet for the Intercontinental Championship, not sure what to think about Bryan Danielson being there. Good that D'Lo picked up the IC title though. Liked Burke defeating a jobber, pushy for him please. Good gautnlet fro Womens title. at least Mickie retained the title. Loved the tag team title gauntlet, especially since the Dibiase Boys retained. Good main event, but it wasn't like what Shane had said being that every title would be on the line. MVP winning is good, but in my eyes he's an upper-mid carder. You've got four weeks of build-up to try and make me make my opinion of MVP better, lol. SummerSlam oughta rock. |

SummerSlam oughta rock. MVP was in a WWE title match at The Great American Bash against John Cena and Batista.. |

 22/7/2009 - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The show opens with the usual opening ECW video, followed by Mike Adamle and Tazz welcoming us to the broadcast. ECW Champion, The Big Show then came strolling down to the ring with his championship belt hanging over his shoulder. He got into the ring and got a microphone from Tony Chimel and spoke about defeating Mark Henry at The Great American Bash on Sunday night. He says that he is tired of all the crappy contenders being put "fed" to him. Show then announces that he has organised a match for later tonight, with 4 contenders fighting for the right to face him at Summerslam. Tommy Dreamer's music plays and he comes from the back with a mic. He says Show isn't the only one tired around here, as he is tired of never getting a title shot. Big Show then says that the people fighting to face him at Summerslam will be; Mark Henry vs. Tommy Dreamer vs. Matt Hardy vs. Chavo Guerrero vs. Kofi Kingston.
1) Mizorrison (John Morrison and The Miz) defeated. Evan Bourne and Jake Hager - Mizorrison, Bourne and Hager all looked impressive out there tonight. Hager and Bourne actually worked well as a team, and Hager is definately someone to watch. As the match drew to a close, Hager and Bourne had communication problems which allowed Morrison to hit Evan with the "Moonlight Drive" to pick up the win for himself and The Miz. After the match, Hager looked pissed at suffering his first loss since arriving in ECW. He then helped Bourne to his feet before clotheslining him to the mat and then proceeding to nail him with a powerbomb.
ECW correspondent, Lena Yada is standing backstage with Kofi Kingston. Kofi jumps around excitedly before saying he went into The Great American Bash with alot of heart, and he was able to defeat Shelton Benjamin, and rid him from ECW. He says in tonights main event he is going to do the exact same - go into the match with alotta heart.
2) Colt Cabana defeated. Matt Striker - While the match was going on, one of those retro style during the match interviews took place on the top left hand corner with Colt Cabana shocked at how there was two of himself, Cabana looked impressive tonight and the funny thing is, he stayed in the top left hand corner of the screen cheering himself on. The match eventually finished with Cabana connecting with a top rope senton to give himself the win.
We see Ron Truth walking down the hall backstage as we cut to a commercial break. "The Truth" debuts NEXT!
3) Ron Truth defeated. Colin Delaney - Truth played the heel character, who was obnoxious and used a load of dirty moves. Delaney didn't really stand a chance, and was hit with a Corkscrew Scissor Kick from the top rope which got Ron the pinfall.
The Big Show comes down to ringside and joins Tazz and Adamle on commentary for the main event.
4) Kofi Kingston defeated. Chavo Guerrero, Matt Hardy and Mark Henry - All five men in the match looked great on ECW's main event, Henry used the power game to get the early advantage but after a while, Matt Hardy and Kofi Kingston managed to connect with a double DDT while Chavo Guerrero and Tommy Dreamer fought on the outside of the ring, as the match continued, it seemed to be over as Dreamer connected with the Death Valley Driver on Chavo Guerrero and sucsessfuly got the three count while everyone was knocked down, Dreamer presumed he was the winner but The Big Show who was sitting at ringside then decided to tell Tommy Dreamer because of his rude behavior early, he has been taken out of the match, Big Show sarcastically apoligises for forgetting to mention this, a pissed off Dreamer then connects with the DDT to a dazed Chavo Guerrero and out of no where, Kofi Kingston crawls on top of Chavo to get the three count and earns a ECW championship match against The Big Show at Summerslam. Kofi uses the ropes to pull himself to his feet as Big Show laughs. |

Nice show Jord. I enjoyed the show. The main event was really good. Like the Hagr/Bourne vs. Mizorrison match a lot. Those match graphics are awsome. Truth's debut was cool. Looking foward to Summer Slam.

ECW RATING; NEW DEVELOPMENT 'STARS GETTING CALLED UP; & MORE!(www.pwinsider.com) - The bodyguard who has been accompanying Nick Nemeth during dark matches and houseshows, Big Rob, is a former professional bodybuilder by the name of Rob Terry. Rob is 27 years old, 6 foot 4 and close to 300lbs. WWE signed him to a developmental deal last year, with Rob having no previous wrestling experience. Big Rob is currently also appearing at FCW shows. It's expected the duo will be debuting on the Smackdown! brand this coming week, with Nemeth teaming with Kenny Dykstra. Kenny and Nick have teamed before while they where apart of the Spirit Squad. We have obtained a photo of Rob and Nemeth at a Smackdown!/ECW houseshow on Monday night. You can view the photo here. - ECW on Sci-Fi did a 1.14 cable rating last night. This is up from last weeks 1.10 rating. Management are said to be extremely pleased with the recent increase in ratings on Raw, Smackdown! and ECW. - The WWE recently came to terms on the release of Marty Wright (The Boogeyman) this past Tuesday. Wright hasn't been seen on television since November 5th due to a torn calf injury and it was reported he was going under dental surgery to replace his missing teeth. It's believed there are more roster cuts on the way.

The opening tag match was a good way of showing Hager's heel side, and I really hope you keep Hager heel. Great to see Cabana getting the win, and corner box thing sounded awesome. I really hope you give Cabana a good push on ECW. Nice debut for Truth, good to see him getting the win. Dreamer being taken out of the match was a nice touch, and it will be interesting seeing where you take Dreamer from here. I dont like the idea of Kingston challenging Show, since it just seems like a match Show is guarenteed to win, but hopefully you do something different with it.

MARIA'S HEADING TO FRIDAY NIGHTS! |
|
|
|
Post by Jord on Aug 31, 2008 15:01:35 GMT -5
25/7/08 - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The Friday Night Smackdown! opening video plays, and Jim Ross and Mick Foley welcome us to TV that's changing Friday nights.
The entrance music of World Heavyweight champion, Edge plays across the PA System as Edge and the love of his life, Vickie Guerrero make their way down to the ring. Edge grabs a microphone and talks about how Vickie is safe now that she is no longer kidnapped by The Undertaker. Edge says that at Summerslam, 'Taker will pay inside Hell of a Cell and will never show his face in the WWE again. Before Edge can continue, the entrance music of Triple H is heard across the PA system as Triple H makes his way down to the ring. Triple H jokes about with Vickie asking how her vacation was but it doesn't go over well with the General Manager, Vickie announces that Triple H will be facing Umaga at Summerslam as well as being in tonight's main event against Smackdown's newest superstar.
1) Maria defeated. Layla - Maria made her Smackdown! debut tonight, and she put on a decent showing here against ECW's Layla. Both girls proved they have improved inside the squared circle, especially Layla. However, it was Maria scoring the victory after nailing a bulldog onto Layla.
After the commercial break, the music of the new United States Champion, Carlito plays and he comes walking out cockily. The unknown man who helped him win the title at The Great American Bash followed him to the ring. Carlito got a microphone and announced the man as his brother, Eddie Colon. Carlito spent the promo putting himself and Eddie over, and talking about how he is once again the United States Champion. He said that The Colon Brothers are far superior to The Hardy Brothers. Jeff Hardy's music plays and he comes out to a phenomenal pop from the Philly crowd. Jeff quickly sprints to the ring, and spears Eddie. The pair begin rolling around on the mat as Carlito exits the ring. Carlito takes matters into his own hands and decides to ring the bell.
2) Eddie Colon (w/ Carlito) defeated. Jeff Hardy[/b] - It looks like we have an impromptu match here between Jeff and Eddie. Eddie's older brother, Carlito stayed at ringside and interfered more than once. Eddie got the upset victory after raking Hardy's eyes and rolling him up and grabbing the ropes for some leverage. After the match was over, Carlito got in the ring and repeatedly smashed his U.S title over the head of Jeff as Eddie watched. Matt Hardy came running down the ramp and he slid into the ring. He dropped Carlito with a big right hand and clotheslined Eddie over the top rope. Carlito and Eddie then quickly scrambled up the ramp as Matt helped Jeff. The camera cuts backstage where we see the WWE Tag Team Champions, Finlay and Sheamus standing with Eve Torres. They spend the interview putting themselves over. 3) WWE Crusierweight Championship; Jamie Noble (C) defeated. Jimmy Wang Yang to retain - As you would except, this match was fast paced cruiserweight action that once apon a time, Smackdown! used to praise themselves for. Jamie Noble is an excellent heel character, and got himself some great heat tonight. I personally thought Yang had the match won when he climbed the top rope, looking to hit the "Yang Time" but Noble got out of harms way at the last second, which gave himself time to quickly apply the "Trailer Hitch" to which Yang had no choice but to tap. Vickie Guerrero is shown backstage looking extremely nervous. A knock on the door is heard, and she begins to scream. Bam Neely approaches the door with a baseball bat, and he answers the door, and we see a sigh of relief on Vickie's face. Shelton Benjamin enters and Vickie gives him a piece of paper as we fade out. 4) Kenny Dykstra and Nick Nemeth (w/ Big Rob) defeated. The HooliganZ (Paul London and Brian Kendrick) - The duo of Kenny Dykstra and Nick Nemeth had a tough obstacle in front of them tonight in Paul London and Brian Kendrick. However, the duo proved to work fantastic together, and where able to out smart London and Kendrick countless times. Nemeth and Dykstra are no strangers to tagging together, as the duo where both apart of the infamous, Spirit Squad. However, their "bodyguard", Big Rob is freakishly large and is menacing. Nemeth pinned Kendrick after a thunderous Brainbuster. After the match was over, London crawled over to Kendrick. Big Rob suddenly grabbed London and applied a torture rack before dropping London off his back and leaving him and Kendrick out on the mat, lifeless. 5) Shelton Benjamin defeated. Triple H - What a fantastic main event for Smackdown! this week. Shelton worked fantastically against Triple H and got in alot of offense, playing the rough neck heel. While the match continued, Edge made his way to ringside, which distracted Triple H, Shelton charged and attempted a clothesline but Triple H ducked, causing a ref bump. While the ref was down, Edge tried to attack Triple H but Triple H connected with the Double A Spine Buster, Triple H then turned around to recieve the Samoan Spike from Umaga who seemingly appeared from no where. Triple H slowly got up to a vertical base where Shelton Benjamin connected with the pay dirt and got a slow three count from the dazed referee. After the bell, Umaga, Edge and Shelton Benjamin attacked Triple H untill the lights in the arena went out. 'Taker appeared in the middle of the ring and Edge pushed Shelton Benjamin in to 'Taker causing Shelton to recieve a huge Choke Slam. Edge retreated while Triple H brawled with Umaga eventually ending with Triple H clotheslining Umaga over the ropes. Smackdown went of the air with Triple H and The Undertaker looking at each other as Umaga and Edge stood on the outside of the ring. [/size][/center] |

Good opening segment with the arguement with HHH and Edge if you'd call that an argument. Nice announcement that HHH will face Umaga at SummerSlam. Hmm, alright opening divas match, I'm suprised that both women are more improved. I always hated both women but I hate Layla more, so glad Maria won. Good segment with Carlito. Ace that Eddie Colon is with him too. Interesting decision for Eddie to beat Jeff Hardy, very nice. Yay, the Cruiserweight title is here, glad Noble retained against Wang Yang. I like the team of Kenny and Nicky, interesting that you gave them a push, beating my favourite team, London and Kendrick. Good main event, nice that Benjamin won. The graphics rock, but Show vs. Kingston? I can't see Kingston being able to win imo.

A Triple H/ Umaga feud is great, and the main event was cool, nice to see Benjamin going over. The ending to the show was great, and I can picture Triple H and Taker in the ring. I'm not fussed on Maria getting the win, and it's cool to see Eddie Colon being brought in alongside Carlito. The Hardy/ Colon match was cool, and I liked Carlito and Matt both getting involved afterwards. Cool to see Dykstra & Nemeth going over, and it's nice to see the tag team division getting some good air time.

28/7/08 - Washington, DC. The opening Raw video plays, and then a pyrotechnic display erupts at the top of the stage. Jerry "The King" Lawler and Michael Cole welcome us to the show. They hype tonights main event between "The Animal" Batista and Kane. The entrance music of Stephanie McMahon hits the PA System as the pregnent daughter of Vince McMahon makes her way down to the ring. Once inside she is given a microphone and she talks about how over the last month she has been interviewing wrestlers over what they know about the Stage falling down on top of her father. She says that she now knows who attempted to take out her father and that she will announce her fathers attempted killer at Summerslam. 1) Stevie Richards defeated. Cody Rhodes - The crowd really didn't care who won this match, and alot of the crowd went to the pisser for this one. Richards experience payed off as he smacked Cody with a "Stevie Kick" for the 3 count. John Cena was shown backstage with Todd Grisham. Cena spent the interview talking about his WWE Championship match at Summerslam where he will be defending against Montel Vontavious Porter. 2) WWE Women's Championship - Mickie James (c) defeated. Jillian Hall to retain - This was a nice back and forth match between Raw's songstress and the fan favourite. Jillian's character is hilarious, and she had me in stiches several times. Jillian was hit with a wicked "Mickie-DT" which got James the pinfall. Victoria ruined Mickie's celebrations afterwards by viciously clotheslining her. Victoria proceeded to stomp away and eventually nailed the "Widow's Peak" before raising the Women's Championship and heading to the back. A video plays putting Montel Vontavious Porter over. 3) Elijah Burke defeated. Hardcore Holly [/color] - Not exactly a great match but at least Elijah is defeating actual Raw superstars now instead of local jobbers. The match lasted maybe eight minutes and finished with Elijah escaping the Alabama Slam attempt and quicky connecting with the Elijah Experiance to get the three count. Backstage we see CM Punk and Rey Mysterio standing together backstage. Punk tells Rey that he hopes there is no hard feelings between them, as he was just annoyed at losing last week. Rey tells him it's all good. The duo begin walking down the hallway as Michael Cole hypes their tag team match. 4) William Regal and Paul Burchill (w/ Katie Lea Burchill) defeated. CM Punk and Rey Mysterio - The duo of Paul Burchill and William Regal work extremely well together, and where on top form tonight. Punk and Rey are also a really good team, and they hit a lot of unorthadox maneuavers. The end of the bout came when Punk got his MITB briefcase and backed Regal into a corner. Burchill kept trying to get into the ring, but the referee stopped him. Punk then turned around and almost killed Rey with a wicked shot to the head with the briefcase. Punk then slid the briefcase out and hit Rey with the "Go To Sleep". Punk left the ring and Regal locked in the "Regal Stretch" to which Rey tapped. 5) Samoan Fight Squad (Afa Jr. & Sonny Siaki) defeated. The Highlanders (Robbie & Rory) - A great debut for Sonny Siaki and the son of the legendary Wild Samoan, Afa Jr. The match wasn't a squash as the Highlanders nearly won on several occasions but after knocking Robbie out of the ring, Afa Jr connected with a strange looking move to finish the match that Michael Cole told us was called the Samoan Storm, a fire man carry in to a wheelbarrow face buster. Afa Jr then hooked the leg of Rorry to get the three count. Chris Jericho and Lance Cade make their way down to the ring, not looking too pleased. Jericho snatches a mic from Lillian and begins to complain about Shawn Michaels attacking him last week, and making him lose the Intercontinental Championship. Jericho demands that HBK show up and he does. HBK comes out and stands at the top of the ramp. He says he just spoke to Shane McMahon, and it's official - at Summerslam it will be Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho in a Last Man Standing match! We then cut to a commercial break. 6) D'Lo Brown defeated. Lance Cade (w/ Chris Jericho) - When we return from the commercial, D'Lo is handing his title to the ref and the bell rings. This match was truely awesome, and it was hard to tell what the outcome was going to be as each man had so many near falls it was unbelivable. However it was D'Lo winning after hitting Cade with the "Sky High" for the victory. A video plays hyping Summerslam - LIVE on PPV August 17th! 7) Batista vs. Kane went to an No Contest[/color] - Last week in the fatal four way, Batista lost his cool and took out everyone, it appeared Kane was the most annoyed by this as he to seemed angry which led to a back and forth slug out. Both men brawled inside and outside of the ring for a good twenty mintues before Batista got out of a chokeslam attempt and connected with the Batista Bomb. Batista was to tired to get the pin straight away and when he eventually got the arm over, Kane was able to kick out at two. The match continued for a little longer and ended back on the outside, Kane surprisingly connected with a side walk slam on the steel entrance ramp but neither man could get back to their feet as the referee counted the ten count. After the match had officially ended, the two men continued their brawl untill security had to break it up as Raw went of the air.[/center][/size] |

I like that your going with the big reveal for Summerslam, hopefully it's a shocker. I didn't like the card filler so early in the card, but at least Richards got a win. I like that your giving Victoria a possible women's title push, and I really hope you give her the title soon. Punk heel turn rules, and a Punk/ Rey feud is godly. Cool to see the Samoan Fight Squad getting the win on their debut. Jericho/ Michaels in a Last man standing match is great, although I would have liked to see Cade go over D'Lo. I like how you are continuing Kane/ Batista with the match ending, and I hope you use a big gimmick match for their next match.

Raw was a really good show.
Stephanie knowing who tampered with the stage is interesting and look forward to who is revealed as the culprit.
Opening match was a good little filler. Think Cody should have got the win as he probably has more to gain then Richards.
Glad Mickie beat Jillian and love Victoria attacking her afterwards. I hope to see Victoria champion soon.
Elijah Burke getting the win is good and I hope he receives a push soon.
Liking CM Punk's heel turn. Hitting Mysterio with the Briefcase is a good way and a Rey vs. Punk feud should be cool. Like that Regal & Burchill got a big win.
Enjoyed the debut of the Samoan Fight Squad. Good win over The Highlanders. Can see the Samoans becoming a dominant tag team on Raw and can see them becoming champs quite quickly.
HBK vs. Y2J feud is going well and look forward to their Last Man Standing match. Surprised Cade lost to D-Lo. I expected Jericho to somehow get involved and help Cade get the win. Sounds like a good match though.
Batista vs Kane sounds like a really good brawl. Glad it ended in a No Contest with both men coming out strong instead of Batista just destroying Kane or something. Hope they face off at Summerslam in some sort of gimmick match or hold out and do it at Unforgiven.
Good show and I look forward to see more.

- Bryan Danielson's flight was cancelled yesterday and that's why he wasn't apart of Raw last night, it was expected that he would be facing Cody Rhodes in the opening contest instead of Stevie Richards.
- Raw writers and Vince McMahon are happy with how the CM Punk heel turn went. They heel turn is a way to jump CM Punk to the main event scene with out having to use his Money in the Bank Briefcase. some people are sugesting that he cashes it in at Wrestlemania 25 to make the match a triple threat or after the bell.
- Speaking of Wrestlemania 25, WWE have been talking to a few celebs about the usual celeb vs wrestler feud. Last year it was Floyd Mayweather vs The Big Show but this mania's not expected to be as big. There are plans to use actor/singer Jack Black.
- There are plans to split up Paul London and Brian Kendrick as a tag team to help out the singles division, it is expected for London to go to ECW where the Cruiserweight title is going to end up while Kendrick is expected to recieve a major push.
- With a face tag team being split up there are plans of bringing up TJ Wilson from FCW up to Smackdown to team with DH Smith as the Stampede Bulldogs, they would play the faces. Former Tag Team champions, Rene Dupree & Slyvain Grenier were recently rehired to the company and are expected to return on screen.
