WWE Raw (8/4/08)

[Vampiro69]

Is he looking at a script card?

[Exslade ZX]

It sort of takes a little bit of luster away, when he's reading from a sheet.

 

It fits with the gimmick I suppose, but not something I'm used to, so, it's just, not cool.

[Vampiro69]

Thats a different twist on a match.

So the set-up is JBL and Jericho never want to tag the other in and will start breaking up each others pins. I expect HBK to take out Jericho and JBL to pin Punk to put heat on that match for SS.

[Slickster]

Adamle is wearing some 2-inch heels on those shoes so he can be almost as tall as Jericho.

I'm half expecting a double pin.

 

The only thing is, if there's a triple threat at SS, what would Kane/HBK do? Although there's still a week to enter them into matches.

[Matt Young]

The Raw brand needs matches for SummerSlam. So why not save Kofi/Burchill and James/Lea?

[Thanks for the Fish]

Is that background of Burchill bullshit? I don't believe ever reading about that. Premier league rugby?

HBK should continue selling the injury. He isn't needed for Slam. Kane just vents and attacks.

Welp there goes Burchill's push. I know losing clean to the champ isn't a bad thing, but it a screwy finish could have led to a SS title match at least. Burchill didn't even get his heat back, which makes me believe the IC feud is over.

[PILLS! PILLS! PILLS!]

Mike Ad-a-ma-lee!

[The Amazing Rando]

Santino rules.

 

Beth Phoenix, IC Champion.

[Anakin Flair]

I'm thinking Santino, new women's champ.

[Thanks for the Fish]

Does the UFC own the trade mark to "Ground and pound"? Otherwise why does the wwe insist on calling it "Pound and Ground"?

[DangerousDamon]

Did they just call Cena the master of ground and pound?!

[DangerousDamon]

Noble/Regal feud?! I wet myself a little.

[The Amazing Rando]

I like Adamle's match-making. He's making it hard on all parties involved.

[Exslade ZX]

Oh wow, that's a new look for Jericho. And one I do not like.

 

Looks like Kendrick, with less hair.

[The Amazing Rando]

I love Jericho's "Save_Me" tron. Also, since when has he started wearing shorter tights?

[slimm44]

What kind of Nickelodeon game show is Adamle running here?

 

And Jericho's new ring attire....

[Prophet of Mike Zagurski]

This match needs a Three Minute Warning run in. But in all seriousness, what the hell Jericho?

 

I think this match will end in a draw.

[DangerousDamon]

Haha if Regal was in this match he'd kick all their asses since he's the greatest TV Champ ever, yo.

[Anakin Flair]

Jericho needs to go back to long tights. The short ones just don't work

[DangerousDamon]

I also loved Jericho going " I've never done this before!" Even though he was a TV Champ.

[tonyjaymzretro]

Love those CM PUNK chants

[PILLS! PILLS! PILLS!]

Love those CM PUNK chants

 

Same here.

 

And Jericho's tights are weird, but I'll probably get used to them soon enough.

[MFer]

Should've known that would happen...

 

Great match though.

[PILLS! PILLS! PILLS!]

That was off the charts! Best three-way I've seen in ages. Everybody looked good here, though I hope that Jericho remains in the equation.

 

Crowd was hot for the entire match, too.

[Anakin Flair]

Now Kane needs to interfere in that match, just to Batista can rub it in.
