Guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 After months of chasing Randy Orton and the WWE Championship, The Game is finally back on top. Triple H won the hard-fought Fatal Four Way Elimination Match at Backlash to reclaim his throne as The King of Kings and become the new WWE Champion. As Triple H knows from experience with this being his 12th reign as World Champion, when you’re at the top, the target is on your back. Who will set their sights on The Game and his newly won gold? Will Randy Orton be looking to regain the WWE Championship and reinstate the “Age of Orton”? Also, after defeating three Superstars in one night last week on Raw, General Manager William Regal will be officially coronated Monday night as the 2008 King of the Ring, in a ceremony full of pomp and prestige. Will the newest English monarch be a benevolent ruler or a cruel dictator? Will The King of Kings and new WWE Champion steal his glory? We'll find out as the crown and scepter are bestowed to Regal Monday night. Last night, Shawn Michaels put his body on the line and gave everything to finally silence Batista once and for all. Will HBK be well enough to make it to the ring after the heated battle? Will Batista have gotten the point and leave The Showstopper alone? Fully recovered from the Money in the Bank Match at WrestleMania XXIV, Mr. Kennedy will make his triumphant return to Raw. Will he be looking to throw his hat into the ring with the new WWE Champion? Or will he decide to avenge his loss at WrestleMania? What’s up next for the Green Bay loudmouth as Raw hits the Garden State? Backlash also saw The Glamazon get the win in the 12-Diva Tag-Team Match by pinning Ashley. Was this just a message to Michelle McCool and Women’s Champion Mickie James? Will Beth Phoenix be aiming to get revenge on McCool for her slap last Monday, or will she focus on regaining the WWE Women’s Championship? We’ll see the answer to all these questions and more when Monday Night Raw airs live at 9/8 CT on USA Network. First thing, the coronation description kinda leads me to believe we're going to get HHH/Regal, just like Downhome predicted. But that could be wrong. Second, seeing as we're coming out of a PPV, as new feuds begin to take shape this week, I'll get threads up on those. Basically a who you want to come out on top, who will come out on top, how long is the feud going to last, what will happen afterward, etc...a prediction thing. I'll keep the PPV thread pinned for another day.
haVoc Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 Has there been any reports why Kennedy has been off TV?
Hawk 34 Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 Kennedy has been shooting a movie for the past month.
Enigma Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 PWI is reporting that Roddy Piper is backstage at Raw and is expected to be part of tonight's show.
King Cucaracha Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 As I said in the Backlash thread, I'm hoping Jericho calls Michaels out on a possible Flair esque injury-fakery from last night. And I'm all for HHH/Regal.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 PWI is reporting that Roddy Piper is backstage at Raw and is expected to be part of tonight's show. he'll definitely be a large part of the show *rimshot*
Silence Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 PWI is reporting that Roddy Piper is backstage at Raw and is expected to be part of tonight's show. he'll definitely be a large part of the show *rimshot* Piper got even fatter?

I know he was huge when he made his cameo in the Rumble..if he got any fatter since then he probably would have exploded..
TheFranchise Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 What's with the Piper 'insults'/observations? Following the serious conditions he's been through the last few years, and considering his age, he doesn't really need to stay in tip-top condition. Just be glad he's still here.

Theres tip top condition, theres average american condition and then theres Piper who looks like he's prepared just in case two of his tires blow out on the way to the arena.
Hawk 34 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 You're not the one to be mocking anyone's physical condition, Marvin.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 HHH looks stupid with the Cena ripoff belt
RedJed Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Good Orton/HHH exchanges here.......does this program still have legs? Guess so, Orton/HHH at JD. Eh.
RedJed Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 HHH: Why don't you get the hell out of MY ring?! Oh, snap. I guess match with them at the next ppv is just hinted at for now and the rematch is tonight.
Hawk 34 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 With the exception of Orton at No Mercy 2007, when was the last time a former champion won the title back by using the rematch clause?
Matt Young Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 NOOOOOOOOOO, don't waste HHH/Orton tonight! Also, I just realized that Triple H has ended all 3 of Orton's title reigns.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 I wonder who HHH faces in 3 weeks after Orton loses? JBL?
The Truthiness Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 With the exception of Orton at No Mercy 2007, when was the last time a former champion won the title back by using the rematch clause? Austin in 1998 after Kane beat him?
RHR Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Sure am glad I watched Backlash...since...they are just redoing the whole damn ppv
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Melina looks like shes a housekeeper with her hair pulled back like that
The Amazing Rando Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 I wonder who HHH faces in 3 weeks after Orton loses? JBL? King William Regal. BOOK IT!!
Matt Young Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Man... Natalya didn't even get in the match. Neither did Layla, Maria, Ashley, Cherry, or Michelle, but they all suck at wrestling (Michelle is meh).
RedJed Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 I wonder who HHH faces in 3 weeks after Orton loses? JBL? King William Regal. BOOK IT!! Yeah, I'm thinking Regal will be granted a title shot at Judgment Day, probably by new returning GM, Coach?
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 I wonder who HHH faces in 3 weeks after Orton loses? JBL? King William Regal. BOOK IT!! The only way that works is if Regal uses his GM powers to make the match lopsided in his favor..even then its still Regal vs HHH..
foleyfanforever88 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Is this Highlander Robbie's farewell match?
RedJed Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Hahah Robbie McCalister is finally getting his receipt from the boys for going to the TNA show in Orlando. Bradshaw is stiffing the shit out of him... I wouldn't be shocked to hear he's released tomorrow.
Thanks for the Fish Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Maybe Piper will come out and stick up for him on the mic anyways...
