DMann2003 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2004 Why not during RAW Jericho and Christian get into a scuffle and Eric decides to upgrade the 8 man to a 10 man and stick Jericho with Benoit/Michaels/Foley/Benjamin and Christian with Evolution. The possible skits of Christian sucking up to Evolution while slut Trish whores herself around them would be cool. Oh and the match, which already could be a potential ****, might reach Dallas levels of greatness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and the match, which already could be a potential ****, might reach Dallas levels of greatness. **** only if the good guys carry the match on their shoulders. Evolution: Randy Orton - Sucks. Batista - Botch-tastic. Flair - Old and can't really go anymore HHH - Has good matches, but needs to work long matches. Adding Christian will increase the suck, and I hate JEricho teaming with people just because he's a babyface. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DMann2003 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2004 Rock/Foley and Flair carried the Mania handicap to ***1/2-**** range Hunter's been in a groove lately and with more men, the minuses of guys like Orton & Batista and Flair's age can be protected, you have Batista tag in hit some big power moves on Michaels and then tag out to Flair or Hunter who works well with him to carry the main portion.

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2004 keep the love triangle away from this. Eight men is already gaurenteeing a clusterfuck, possibly with Shelton pinning HHH AGAIN, just to keep HHH out of the world title situation and let HHH get his win back after a LONG match at Backlash, then letting Shelton move to the IC Title level (going after Orton after he badmouths Shelton for the lose to his leader), with Shelton eventually grabbing the strap after fending off Evolution. I don't know where either guy would go after that feud, because Randy's options are pretty limited whilst being in HHH's shadow. He could always try to turn face (if that's even possible) or go into a feud with Jericho while Christian goes back toward the IC Title for a while. Hell...they could probably throw Tajiri in there somewhere as well by that time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2004 Flair has Benjamin in a figure 4. Benoit heatbutts Flair. HHH pedigrees Benoit. HBK superkicks HHH. Batista spinebusters HBK. Foley claws Batista. Orton RKO's Foley. Benjamin rolls up Orton for the win. Sound about right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Kevin Nash, Big Show, and X-Pac (w/HBK at ringside) vs. Booker T, Goldust, Bubba Ray Dudley, Spike Dudley & Rob Van Dam probably looked good on paper as well.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted April 9, 2004 Yep. Anyway, keep Tristian away from Evolution. If anything will fuck up Christian it's Botchtista and Orton being booked as better, smarter, suave-er, more handsome and all around more appealing to Trish than Christian is.

That reminds me...what's the ONLY trick they have not yet tried with Orton to get him over? Expect Randy to get a female valet sometime before the summer.

Orton RKO's Foley. Benjamin rolls up Orton for the win. Sound about right? Yup but I got a feeling HBK will kick Beniot and Benot and HBK's problems will araise and Orton will roll up Beniot or HBK while Foley is fighting with Flair outside while Batista grabs whoever isn't being pinned and HHH and shelton are fighting outside also.

Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Report post Posted April 9, 2004 I like the bulk build here - you're building for the Backlash Main Event as well as Foley/Orton. Batista and Flair? The only reason that they're there is because of Evolution as a unit. Yes, I'd say that the match will get due time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2004 With all those people in the match and not needing them to be slotted elsewhere, they better let it go on for 30 minutes... Its the pre-PPV Raw. We're talking promo-palooza. That's where 85% of the show's going. And they've only got 5 matches going into this thing, so I'm betting at least two more will get added.

TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2004 Well Backlash has been the best built solo-brand PPV yet so I'm enthusiastic for the build. The 8 man could be very good or could be clusterfuck. I don't see it till Tuesday anyway(fucking TSN) so I'm hopnig for greatness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
