Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted June 21, 2002 We saw ever since the draft that the WWE Raw had the dretch of The companies Roster, with a few standouts the rest is the weight...sorta speak. Austin was pretty much the one ray of star power, not counting RVD and Flair, but Now That Austin is gone Who is gonna be the Mega Face for Raw? Bradshaw???? They pushed him up since the Draft and now the Blackjack dressin Texan is the Hardcore champ, but most of us here aren't exactly jumping up and down at the prospects of him How about... Booker T? Think he got the Main Event Faceness to take over Raw? Ric Flair gonna be wrestling now, he is 56...he is Terry Funk's Age at WM14 to put in that perspective. Who is he gonna hang with convincingly. RVD? If they are done curtain jerking him in the opening matches. Who on the Raw Roster could step up and fill the Void? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BoboBrazil Report post Posted June 21, 2002 HHH. He is going to win the title at KOTR then get 40 minutes each show on both Raw and Smackdown, destroying everyone on the roster leading up to him getting the first victory over Lesnar at Summerslam.

Guest GenerationNever Report post Posted June 21, 2002 I think RVD and Booker T are the best choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Flyboy Report post Posted June 21, 2002 I think RVD and Booker T are the best choices. Yep. RVD and Booker T. are the major faces on Raw, now.. not counting the Rock since he's on Smackdown.. or suppose to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BoboBrazil Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Booker T would be the best choice as top face for Raw, but I sincerely have my doubts that they will push him as a strong face. He is going to become the nWo's job boy and then he will probably job again to the Undertaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kelloggs Report post Posted June 22, 2002 It's so true. But at least the fed marks pop for him now. Him and RVD are the most over so they'll get pushes but the Rock and Lesnar are going to feud so a trade is needed. Rocky may need to leave SmackDown or they'll be "overloading" it by trading Brock there. I say give Booker co #1 face with Rocky for now because we all know this will be the summer of RVD soon.

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted June 22, 2002 i have to agree with rvd and booker t becoming the top two faces on raw, beside flair of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest midnight_burn Report post Posted June 22, 2002 I'll go with Rob Van Dam and Booker T as well, they are both the two best choices to become the top faces on Raw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shaved Bear Report post Posted June 22, 2002 I agree, Booker T and RVD, which of course means... champ HHH and UT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wolverine Report post Posted June 22, 2002 I believe that the top face of Raw SHOULD be Benoit. But obviously they are going in a new direction with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dangerous A Report post Posted June 22, 2002 I have to echo Wolverine's opinion. Benoit should be pushed on Raw as the next bad ass babyface. (since he isn't going to be a babyface in the mold of Rock or Hogan as far as connecting with the crowd) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nezbyte Report post Posted June 22, 2002 RVD, Gurrero, Book. Can anyone tell me what the T stands for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KingOfOldSchool Report post Posted June 22, 2002 RVD, Gurrero, Book. Can anyone tell me what the T stands for? I've read posts on the 'net which say that himself/writers/bookers/whoever, were looking for a take-off of Booker T. Washington's name. But the real and obvious explanation is simply, they shortened his real name of Booker Tio Huffman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post Posted June 22, 2002 When Kane comes back they will probably push him as Raw's top face. He was close to the top when he got hurt, now with Austin gone I expect them to really give Kane a big push. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Renegade Report post Posted June 22, 2002 RVD, NOT Booker T, because will all it know it aint happening, the man hasnt had a single PPV win since he's come to the WWF/E (unless you count the pin on Angle in Invasion), the WWE does not want to push him, as every time there was the slightest chance of Book getting over (KOTR, being kicked out of the nWo etc) its been ignored.

Guest Prince Paul Report post Posted June 22, 2002 Booker T and RVD should be pushed. I'm not sure that this is the summer of RVD or anything, but I think he'll (RVD) be pushed to #1 face before Booker will. Unless he pisses off HHH or something. Of course Lesnar could always be turned face as well, and it looks like they'd push him to #1 wether we wanted it or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest X-Factor Corperation Report post Posted June 23, 2002 RVD, Booker T., and Bubba Ray Dudley. As for Benoit, they should keep him on Smackdown!. You say it would be over booked but who do they have other then Triple H, Hogan, Chris Jericho, and Kurt Angle? Triple H is Triple H Rock is rarely there Angle will be going to the olympics(Okay, that's in a long time) Chris Jericho is Chris Jericho And Hogan is Hogan They might have a lot, but if one of them gets an injury they have no one to build on, unlike Raw.

Guest HBK16 Report post Posted June 23, 2002 PROTOTYPE! It would be awesome bringing him in now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BigTim2002 Report post Posted June 23, 2002 Except for the fact that Prototype was shelled as a HEEL the last time we were at a dark match, and that Shelton Benjamin was the face... But Benoit, IMHO, has been given the Scott Keith Broomstick Rule (TM copyright Scott Keith, all rights reserved.) I swear, he might be able to pull *** out of HOGAN!

Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted June 23, 2002 Double posties! Last show had insane face heat for Booker T. There were tons of Booker T signs (he even took one with him on his way out after the nWo beatdown) and all sorts of face support. I say he has 25% of a chance of getting the ME push, with RVD getting 25% and the writing team doing something retarded at 50%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
