Guest Report post Posted June 17, 2002 With less than a week to go before King of the Ring, which is live on Pay-Per-View this Sunday at 8 p.m. ET, the quarterfinals of the King of the Ring Tournament will begin tonight, live on TNN! Rob Van Dam will battle nWo's X-Pac in what is sure to be a high-flying quarterfinal matchup! Also, Booker T will have a tough challenge in front of him when he goes one-on-one against the massive destruction machine, Brock Lesnar! Which Superstars will take the next step to becoming the 2002 King of the Ring? Find out tonight! Also, thanks to Lesnar, Mr. McMahon once again became the 100 percent owner of WWE, leaving Ric Flair powerless. What is next for the Nature Boy? Is the brand extension over? Find out where the future of WWE lies tonight! You can't miss RAW, tonight at 9/8 CT on TNN, live from The Arena in Oakland in sunny California! wwf.com Sounds like a good show judging from these two matches:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Renegade Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Oh please please please let Book win ah who am i kidding...Brock will KILL Booker *sighs* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Brock joins the nWo...tonight! Why not? Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash can distort reality as much as they want to, but even they know that a stable that features X-Pac and Big Show as its only viable contenders seriously lacks in credibility. A fun game you can play while watching tonight's Raw is to see how many Austin signs made it past security. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sakura Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Brock will win(and still have no heat). I hope the "brand extension" is over..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheDames7 Report post Posted June 17, 2002 They'll probably have some sort of contract signing over ownership from Flair to McMahon or something like that, ending with Flair regaining half of the company somehow, possibly Dawn Marie. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Whoever wins Brock v. Book will probably win the whole thing. If they don't want Brock to get damaged they could have him lose by dq, that way he still hasn't been pinned, and Booker T. still can move on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted June 17, 2002 I predict a double run in on the KOR matches with nWo Cliq ending the matches early. I wonder if RVD will accidently make X-Pac bleed tonight? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Some more matches were added to the preview on wwf.com. They are: Matt Hardy vs Undertaker Jeff Hardy vs Raven Dlo and Trish vs Crash and Molly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest What?! Report post Posted June 17, 2002 D'LO ON RAW!!!!! Yeah! With Trish against Crash and Molly. Boo! It's just gonna be like every intergender match we see on Raw all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 17, 2002 At least Crash might add Holly back on his name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RicFlairGlory Report post Posted June 17, 2002 You might get a decent spot or two from D-Lo though... if they dont let the women rip each others panties off the whole time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Yes! I'm going to RAW! But No Austin. But Flair, Eddy, Benoit, RVD! But Vince. Please, let this show have a long 30 minute Benoit/Eddy/RVD/Flair anyone match. They never come here. It's the least they should do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted June 17, 2002 well Taker is keeping the world title defenses against people who have the perception of a snowball's chance in hell of winning (dreamer, Orton, etc). I think RVD- Xpac could be really good. the raw's going to have the curiosity factor just to see how/if they tiptoe around Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shaved Bear Report post Posted June 17, 2002 if x-pac goes over rvd im gonna be steamed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 17, 2002 Is it too early to dub Brock Lesnar as "The Heatless Wonder", or does Eddy still carry the torch as "Latino Heatless"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted June 17, 2002 If they want shit to make sense, have Eddy and Benoit beat down Flair. Have Paul E. explain that he paid the two off, so that they wouldn't come down and help Flair out when Man Mountain Brock slaughtered him. That way, Flair can go face they way they want, Eddy and Benoit go heel, possibly joining Paul E.'s stable (not necessary but would be appreciated), and the Eddy/Flair feud can begin. Or we can have Vince talk out of his ass for 20-25 minutes, whatever works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 18, 2002 I can sort of see Vince coming out doing one of those speeches or showing one pretaped talking about how they are taking the company in a new direction now like he did after Survivor Series 97. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Your Olympic Hero Report post Posted June 18, 2002 I say: RVD is way over, push him. WWE says: No, the fans just hate X-Pac. That's why they cheer for RVD. Push X-Pac. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted June 18, 2002 BOOK-END!!! BOOK-END!!!! BOOK-END!!! I hate RVD, but fuck it, I saw the damned Book-end again tonight. Of course this means that Brockberg will win tonight too... FUCK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Your Olympic Hero Report post Posted June 18, 2002 Are you kidding? X-Pac DIDN'T job clean? That's a surprise. Booker T is way over too. So X-Pac will win at KOTR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
