Boxer Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 After being subjected two weeks in a row to the sadistic whims of others, tonight k it’s time for The Game to make the rules. And what Triple H has in mind spells nothing but hurt for his WrestleMania XXIV opponents, Randy Orton and John Cena. Two weeks ago, Raw General Manager William Regal announced a Triple Threat Takeover, allowing each of the three men involved in the WWE Championship Triple Threat Match to arrange their opponents’ bouts for one week. That night, on John Cena’s command, Triple H was forced to battle reigning WWE Champion Randy Orton. Last week, The Cerebral Assassin was pushed into a match with his WrestleMania XV opponent, Kane, compliments of Orton. Tonight, however, Triple H has arranged a match pitting Cena & Orton against the entire Raw roster. (No, really. It’s true!) What the hell does this mean? Having suffered through two weeks of his opponents’ will, can The Game capture the momentum in the weeks leading up to the greatest stage in all of sports-entertainment? In other action, Chris Jericho returns to Raw as the new Intercontinental titleholder after defeating former champion Jeff Hardy. Tonight, Y2J will kick off Raw with The Highlight Reel and he will have a huge guest - Big Show! What will Show have to say about his encounter last week with his WrestleMania XXIV foe, Floyd "Money" Mayweather? The animosity between the two flooded the arena last week when The World’s Largest Athlete grabbed the WBC welterweight champion after their weigh-in, lifted him overhead and tossed him over the top rope causing Mayweather to injure his elbow. Will Mayweather be able to continue with their match? For answers to these questions and more, tune in to Monday Night Raw at 9/8 CT on USA network. It'll be interesting to see how they pull off this 2 vs. the whole Raw roster deal.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Im guessing since everyone will be in action vs Orton/Cena that there wont be any other matches? HHH should have done vs the entire WWF roster and throw out ECW and SD guys too to make it interesting.
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I always thought HHH would beat the entire roster in one night. Should be interesting.
tpww7 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Flair vs Vince in a street fight was randomly just announced on wwe.com for tonight.
haVoc Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Flair vs Vince in a street fight was randomly just announced on wwe.com for tonight. That's odd. Maybe Flair failed a drug test so McMahon is gonna end his career for screwing up WM plans?
The Amazing Rando Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Remember, Cena and HBK were tag champs and they did two tag battle royals in one night. Sure, they went out about halfway through the second one, but they went through 18 guys the first time around.
RepoMan Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Flair vs Vince in a street fight was randomly just announced on wwe.com for tonight. That's odd. Maybe Flair failed a drug test so McMahon is gonna end his career for screwing up WM plans? Kayfabe/ Vince wants to soften up Flair for his match at WM /Kayfabe
The Amazing Rando Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I could see some of the faces and heels on the "Entire Raw Roster" side attacking each other. Although you can see that a few people are missing in that picture (like Big Show for instance)
Conspiracy_Victim Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Setting up Jericho vs. Show for tonight I guess? They trying to turn Jericho into s smartass heel already?
DMann2003 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Jericho didn't come across as heelish there Is this Show's first official match back?
Hawk 34 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Jericho didn't come across as heelish there Is this Show's first official match back? No. He worked a handicap match on Smackdown a couple weeks ago.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Jericho didn't come across as heelish there Is this Show's first official match back? To be honest I had to mute most of the interaction due to a phone call. Just seemed to me that since Jericho was backing Mayweather they were making him into the heel for the convo at least. I thought Big Show had a squash against someone the week he came back. Not 100% sure though.
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Jericho didn't come across as heelish there Is this Show's first official match back? No. He worked a handicap match on Smackdown a couple weeks ago. He had one last week on Smackdown too.
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Please be Shelton..please be Shelton.. EDIT: Should have figured it would be a Raw guy.
JPopStarKami Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I really hope Punk doesn't job to Carlito here.
JPopStarKami Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Wow that was a nice match. There were at least two other spots I would have bought as the finisher.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I think its obvious CM Punk is winning MITB. I also think its obvious he'll be the first to cash in and not win the title.
Exslade ZX Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 The public her boobies, haha. Ha. Something so simple, yet, that was a great segment.
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I think its obvious CM Punk is winning MITB. I also think its obvious he'll be the first to cash in and not win the title. I'd put Kennedy, Jericho, and MVP ahead of Punk in odds of winning MITB.

I'd put Kennedy, Jericho, and MVP ahead of Punk in odds of winning MITB. I only agree with you on Jericho. Kennedy won it last year, and MVP's probably going to feud with Matt post Mania. I think so, at least.
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Wow that was a nice match. There were at least two other spots I would have bought as the finisher. After the last few minutes of Jericho-Hardy last week, I realized how important near-falls are in getting the crowd into a match. Without them, the fans would have never gotten into the Punk-Carlito match, sadly.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 I think its obvious CM Punk is winning MITB. I also think its obvious he'll be the first to cash in and not win the title. I'd put Kennedy, Jericho, and MVP ahead of Punk in odds of winning MITB. We can eliminate Kennedy right off the bat, and Jericho..I doubt it. MVP could be but I think Punk is the better choice.
DMann2003 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Yay lets job Kendrick/London to Umaga Yay!
MarvinisaLunatic Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 What the hell is up with Regal's hair?
The Truthiness Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Londrick going to get a win tonight...right?
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 Why does the best tag team in the WWE (closely followed by Miz/Morrison) continue to get squashed? There is no reason they shouldn't be tag team champions right now.
