TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 WWE.com has learned that on a special three-hour edition of Raw that begins at 8/7 CT, "Rocky Balboa" star Sylvester Stallone will make a rare appearance this Monday night and grant WWE an exclusive interview. What will the hard-hitting celeb have to say on this unprecedented and historic occasion? Also, one Superstar will earn the opportunity to take on John Cena for the WWE Championship. In the biggest Battle Royal in Raw history, the Raw Superstars will compete in hopes that they’ll emerge victorious to challenge Cena for his title. Cena has been on a roll the past few weeks, and is anxiously awaiting his upcoming matches with K-Fed on Jan. 1 and Umaga at New Year’s Revolution… but will he be entering those two matches as the WWE Champion? Watch all the action of the special three-hour edition of Raw this Monday night at 8/7 CT on the USA Network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 --Sylvester Stallone will be on tape tonight on Raw. He's in Philadelphia for a Rocky 6 premiere at the same time Raw is going on. The Fredericksburg, VA newspaper in a story today said a WWE spokesperson told them it was likely Kevin Federline would be at Raw tonight to help build up the 1/1 match with John Cena. Federline is Raw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haVoc 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 Raw Superstars will compete in hopes that they’ll emerge victorious to challenge Cena for his title.The winner of the battle royal gets the title shot later in the show, right? Cena has been on a roll the past few weeks, and is anxiously awaiting his upcoming matches with K-Fed on Jan. 1 and Umaga at New Year’s Revolution… but will he be entering those two matches as the WWE Champion? If Cena did lose the title shouldn't Umaga get to wrestle the champion at NYR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billdynamite 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 I'm going for Umaga to win the BR, and i think he'll be DQ'd later on against Cena. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slimm44 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 I'm thinking Kennedy comes to Raw tonight and wins the battle royal. I don't have any info on whether he will jump shows, it would make it interesting, instead of having Cena squash someone. Or DX will win it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billdynamite 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 Brown's gonna POUNCE! all 29 guys at the same time and they'll all fly over the top rope... It'd be some visual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigPoppaKev 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 I was thinking HBK just to add something different to the show. Then Rated RKO cost him the title or Umaga comes out to cause a DQ. Orton or Edge is too easy of a solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Human Fly 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 I still half expect Umaga to win the battle royal and win the title tonight. What is better for buyrates? Cena as champion or Cena as challenger with a good chance to see a title change? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 Umaga winning the BR would be funny since he cant touch Cena til 1/1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Human Fly 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 He can touch him in a match (which was stipulated when the no touching was first announced) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 WWE has a real oppurtunity tonight with the battle royal. I mean everyone knows the usual group of likely winners, and who will end up getting title shots down the road regardless, but tonight, a debuting Monty Brown or someone in the mid-card, winning the battle royal would probably at least give something to the crowd other then the same old shit happening at the top of the ME scene.

Just John 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 If they hadn't squashed Nitro last week, him winning and giving Cena a good fight would be a good way to keep his momentum going from the ladder match last night. Would Jeff Hardy work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2006 The BR almost has to be in the first hour to give the winner a shot to recouperate. and that being said..its starting.. I see Brooklyn Brawler, and Lawler is in there too.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
