WWE.com has learned that the imminent fate of WWE Champion Randy Orton (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/randyorton/) will be revealed live tonight, as the Legend Killer's next challenger at Backlash will be announced as soon as Raw (http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/) goes on the air.

Orton has reigned as WWE Champion since October 2007. Nonetheless, his victory in the Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania (http://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/) XXIV over John Cena (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/johncena/) and Triple H (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/tripleh/) was nothing if not surprising.

Pundits had dismissed his chances of emerging victorious as less than 1-in-5. Yet there he was on Raw last Monday night holding the title aloft for all to see. While there’s little doubt that both Cena and The Game have designs to recapture the gold from the Legend Killer, Orton also seems to have picked up another two more possible contenders for the throne: JBL (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/jbl/) and a resurgent Matt Hardy (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/smackdown/matthardy/).

JBL confronted the reigning WWE Champion and, in typical Layfield fashion, made no bones about his intentions to gun for the title. For his part, Hardy returned to Raw last Monday seeking revenge for a punt to the head that Orton delivered to him shortly after his appendix surgery. In a match between Orton and Hardy, the Legend Killer came out on top that night, but it’s unlikely that anyone has heard the last of Hardy.
Can Orton really fend off every Superstar he has gunning for him? Is the “Age of Orton” on borrowed time?

And how exactly will Shawn Michaels (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/shawnmichaels/) respond after the roller coaster ride of emotion he’s been on recently? After HBK ended the career of his dear friend, the "Nature Boy," at WrestleMania, The Animal has expressed that he is none too happy with Michaels' act. Following a tense confrontation on SmackDown (http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/) both The Showstopper and Batista (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/smackdown/batista/) will be Chris Jericho (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/chrisjericho/)'s special guests on tonight's Highlight Reel. Can these Superstars maintain their cool on Raw?

In other Raw action, Santino Marella (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/santinomarella/) just can’t seem to let go of his ex-girlfriend, Maria (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/maria/). The Italian Stallion felt the need last Monday night to challenge Maria to an Anything Goes Match, thinking he could exact some measure of revenge for their split. Unfortunately for Marella, the Playboy cover girl was fueled by anger, and with the rest of WWE’s gorgeous Divas fueled by Santino’s big mouth, it was the Italian export who found himself on the losing end of a bunny beat down.

After suffering the ultimate humiliation at the manicured hands of Maria and the Divas, have we heard the last of the jealous ex, or will the Italian Stallion be back for more?
Don’t miss Raw tonight at 9/8 CT on USA Network to see what happens.

Honestly... :roll:

Preview:Pure Pedigrees
March 24, 2008


Triple H clearly relished his night in charge last week.

After punishing John Cena and Randy Orton by pitting them against the entire Raw roster last week, The Game added injury to insult by laying out both of his WrestleMania foes with Pedigrees.

With less than two weeks before The Granddaddy of Them All, what will the three warriors poised to compete for the WWE Championship do this week to get a leg up on their competition at the main event?

Also planned for Raw is a huge Money in the Bank Ladder Match preview, as four members of the field chasing the cherished championship contract in Orlando, Fla., will square off. CM Punk will team with the Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho to face United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter and Carlito.

Stylin' in Flair Country for the Last Time?

This week, Raw heads to Columbia, S.C. - "Flair Country." Columbia is just one of many places in the Carolinas that have watched and enjoyed "Nature Boy" Ric Flair's career from the very beginning.

With his career on the line against Shawn Michaels less than a week before WrestleMania, the Nature Boy will address HBK on Raw. Will Flair style and profile before our fans in Columbia for the last time?
The Biggest Statement

In other Raw action last week, The World’s Largest Athlete sent his WrestleMania opponent, Floyd “Money” Mayweather, another message by manhandling eight-time Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho just a week after tossing The World’s Greatest Fighter from the ring. The intimidation game has escalated dangerously in the weeks leading up to WrestleMania. Just how far are the WBC welterweight champion and the former WWE Champion willing to go to gain an edge?

Belfast Brawl .. or crawl?

Also, JBL continued to provoke his WrestleMania opponent, Finlay, when he pummeled the Irishman’s fellow countryman, Colin Delaney. Having already stooped to new lows, what will the self-proclaimed “wrestling god” do next? And just what steps will Finlay take to exact his revenge?

To find out the answers to these questions and more, tune into Monday Night Raw at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

---------------

Most of the IWC will implode at the sight of Jericho and Punk teaming up. Well, except for the fans in attendance because Punk gets dubbed pops, unless they forget the cheer track this week.

Damn you Destor!

[Destor]

:D

[Fabien Barthez]

I didn't add a picture?

It wasn't the first post?

Much ado about nothing isn't it?

[Destor]

It's the preview from WWe.com It's traditional to post it.

[Destor]

Just edit my post inot yours

[Destor]

Sweet. Welcome to the RAW thread gents. I will probably spam this all to shit SO WATCH OUT.

[Destor]

spam wars gonna be going down.

Unless I get bored

[Londoner]

I'll be spamming this thread also if i can be bothered.

[Londoner]

Might get past 8,000 posts tonight

[KingofOldSchool]

Honesty?

Is the best policy?

[Fabien Barthez]

I think JBL rules on the mic, and just generally. So I hope he is going to be the contender. Matt Hardy is Mr Generic in my eyes...

[Fabien Barthez]

Honesty?

Is the best policy?

OK. Your anal. I get it.

[ClockShot]

BROOKLYN BROOKLYN!

[Destor]

Orton opponent will be the returning Eugene

[Destor]

I read it on the internet, it must be true

[KingofOldSchool]

I can't wait to see The Highlight Reel.

[KingofOldSchool]

OK. Your anal. I get it.

What about my anal cavities?

[KingofOldSchool]

Orton opponent will be the returning Eugene

I heard it will be Virgil.

[KingofOldSchool]

I heard Santino will face the returning Harvina.

[Destor]

The Honkey Tonk Man told me he had a 9 inch penis

[Destor]

(Virgil)

[KingofOldSchool]

(Virgil)

Well he IS black.

[Azriel]

Well, they have a lot to live up to with last week's awesome show. Let's hope they do another solid show tonight.

[KingofOldSchool]

I'm watching a WWWF MSG House show from 1977 on WWE 24/7 right now.

[KingofOldSchool]

Well, they have a lot to live up to with last week's awesome show. Let's hope they do another solid show tonight.

They'd have to do an HBK retirement show in order to even remotely top last week.

[KingofOldSchool]

Haystacks Calhoun FTW

[KingofOldSchool]

I want to see The Great Khali star in CSI: India.

[KingofOldSchool]

BAHGAWDKANGIT'STHEHIGHLIGHTREEL!

[Innovator]

In order to top last week, I need to hear this theme

[KingofOldSchool]

So does anyone think the draft will be announced tonight?

[Fabien Barthez]

I want to see Santino on the panel for Italian Idol.

[Innovator]

BADSTREET USA

In order to top last week, I need to hear this theme

Dusty and CAWdy Rhodes vs. Michael P.S. Hayes and Ray Gordy (Jesse)

[Innovator]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Innovator]

Ray Gordy bouncing like Hayes would be awesome

[Fabien Barthez]

So does anyone think the draft will be announced tonight?


I think so.

Also, do you think HBM will go to boost SD, or vice versa? And why?

[Innovator]

Festus is the big bruiser like Terry Gordy

[Innovator]

we just need a technician now

[Destor]

I hope they do announce the draft tonight

[Fabien Barthez]

I say vice versa, as in Big Dave to Raw...

[KingofOldSchool]

Festus is the big bruiser like Terry Gordy

CM Punk could be Buddy Roberts. :shifty:

[KingofOldSchool]

we just need a technician now

Or John Morrison.

[Destor]

I think so.

Also, do you think HBM will go to boost SD, or vice versa? And why?
I think HBM is RAW mainstay. He's a guy I don't think they would even consider for a SD! run. But I definitly think SD! would benifit from having more so than RAW.

[Innovator]

Fuck that, have Punk be the showman

[Innovator]

HHH/HBK are RAW

Taker is Smackdown

[KingofOldSchool]

Fuck that, have Punk be the showman

Punk can be the Jimmy Garvin.

[Azriel]

Here we go

Evening all.

[Destor]

Fuck gotta go, might be back

[KingofOldSchool]

HHH/HBK are RAW

Taker/Edge is Smackdown

Punk is Omnipotent

[Fabien Barthez]

I think HBM is RAW mainstay. He's a guy I don't think they would even consider for a SD! run. But I definitly think SD! would benifit from having more so than RAW.

Thats my thoughts really. I think SD could use a Main Eventer, and HBM would be good for ratings.

Has HBM ever had a run on SD, I just can't remember. And has he ever been on the opposite side of the draft when he and HHH have both been active?

A curiosity.

[Azriel]

So, Orton coming out first?

[ClockShot]

Good evening, everyone.

[Azriel]

Or Regal. :lol:

[Innovator]

REGAL BABY

[KingofOldSchool]

The next WWE Championship is to be defended?

[Innovator]

BORTON!

[Fox]

HAY!!!

[ClockShot]

ORTON!

[Innovator]

Holy shit hte yellow and red for his entrance is seizure-tastic

[Azriel]

Okay, Orton was the second. I was close.

[KingofOldSchool]

Jay Bee Ell - that's how Regal will announce JBL

[Londoner]

Good way to start the show

[Fox]

Orton vs. Cena vs. JBL vs. Triple H is my guess

[Fabien Barthez]

Better be JBL.

[KingofOldSchool]

LMAO AT ORTON HEARS A BOO

[Fox]

Jibble!

[Azriel]

Meh

[Fabien Barthez]

Thank god, but I bet theres someone else following...

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL are you serious? "The most deserving #1 contender in WWE history"

[Innovator]

Oh god, JBL

Orton is a legend killer, not a miracle worker

[Londoner]

HHH to come out next 'unexpectedly'?

[SammyG]

lol JBL and Orton. Terrible.

[Innovator]

JBL KEEP YOUR JACKET ON

[Fox]

LOL are you serious? "The most deserving #1 contender in WWE history"

I guess the requirements are to beat up an Irishman and throw a trash can at a midget.

[Fabien Barthez]

Right, gonna light the Raw spliff. See you all in about 15 minutes.

[Innovator]

Here come HHH and Johnny Boy

[SammyG]

Yesssssssssssssssss HHH

[Innovator]

Right on cue

[Fabien Barthez]

Way to shake things up there writing staff. :roll:

[Londoner]

TIME TO PLAY THE GAAAAAME

[Azriel]

Here comes the H

[Fox]

grown men in underwear and t-shirts live on RAW

[Londoner]

so fuckin obvious

[KingofOldSchool]

IT'S A WRESTLEMANIA REMATCH*





*John Cena will be played by John Bitchtits Layfield

[Londoner]

haitch haitch haitch

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Obvious tag match coming up now, they are all in their attire.</font>

[owenbrown]

Gee, I bet there will be a Cena/HHH vs JBL/Orton match tonight as the main event. :roll:

[Londoner]

supercunt next

[Azriel]

LOL are you serious? "The most deserving #1 contender in WWE history"

Well, I'm sure Vince had something to do with that, what with JBL beating up the guy that humiliated Vince for months

[SammyG]

lol @ black guy in Hornswoggle hat sitting 2nd row.

[ClockShot]

Wow. Big pop for the game.

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL HHH just burried both Orton and JBL main eventing a PPV.

[Fox]

whatever, Hunter. a win is a win.

[Innovator]

Saiyan Cena coming out soon

[Fox]

said the guy who spent 2 years winning matches with Orton, Batista and Flair helping him, not to mention a sledgehammer

[ClockShot]

Hunter is asking the questions I want answered.

[SammyG]

Where's Cena?

[Londoner]

LOL HHH just burried both Orton and JBL main eventing a PPV.

Not that hard tbh.

[KingofOldSchool]

hahaahaha HHH found the midget tossing hilarious

[owenbrown]

Cue Cena shortly.

[KingofOldSchool]

Cena is not there tonight guys

[Linkbowler]

Triple threat again. Booooooooooooo.

[SammyG]

What, who is Cena gonna wrestle at Backlash?!

[Corndad]

Wow if this will end in 3 way, where does it leave Cena

[ClockShot]

Meh. Alright already.

No Cena. Nice.

[Azriel]

yeah, another triple threat :roll:

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Handicap Match: The most overused match in WWE today</font>

[Londoner]

wow supercunt not involved in the title match

[dablackguy]

I can't fucking stand HHH

Get in the match and let's cut down Orton as well

[Azriel]

said the guy who spent 2 years winning matches with Orton, Batista and Flair helping him, not to mention a sledgehammer

But he's a face now, so technically, that never happened :shifty:

[Londoner]

HHH is great right now

[Londoner]

sorry i mean haitch haitch haitch

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Shame Cena will obviously be added next week, unless they wanted to do a Cena/HHH match at the PPV which would be hilarious because it'd be placed higher on the card than the Orton/JBL Title match</font>

[KingofOldSchool]

UMANGA

[Fox]

Boomanga

[ClockShot]

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMAGA!

[Londoner]

BATISTA/HBK ON THE HIGHLIGHT REEL TONIGHT!!

[Fox]

Cue Alienoid mark out moment.

[ClockShot]

VAL VENIS!

QUICK! SOMEONE TELL NOID!

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL VAL

[Londoner]

WHOOOOOMAGAAAA

[Fabien Barthez]

How come Regal backstage promos rule, yet Regal on the mic in the ring, is just a bit shit?

Umaga and Cheif Morley. One for the ages no doubt....

[Azriel]

Hi Val! Bye Val!

[Heros Welcome]

VAL! Holy hell he is even getting a full entrance.

[Londoner]

why is it all whomaga ever does is squash jobbers and lose big ppv matches fuckin pointless

[dablackguy]

Val for the win

[Fox]

Maybe this is the beginning of a Val Venis come-back?

....probably not.

[Londoner]

agreed barthez, glad someone else finally fuckin noticed regals shit on the mic

[Azriel]

Umm, because the backstage promos are taped.

[NeanderCarl]

evening all

woah, did val venis just get an entrance on raw??? :eek:

He's still jobbing though.

[Linkbowler]

So, thinking ahead to the ME, has the team of two ever won a handicap match cleanly? Ever?

[owenbrown]

Thanks for coming Val.

[Innovator]

Did Noid cream himself here?

[Fox]

Damn this is a mighty squash.

[Fabien Barthez]

It's kind of like, Wrestling Challenge circa 1991.

Can we get a pre-recorded promo from someone in the top corner of the screen? :D:D

[Londoner]

this is lazy booking at its finest

[dablackguy]

waste of tv time...exactly what they were going for

[Londoner]

samoan thumb

[NeanderCarl]

That was quite charitable to Val.

[Fox]

Damn. Val just made Umaga look like a million bucks.

[Londoner]

yeh ok jr, thats why batista beat him easily

[KingofOldSchool]

See you next squash.

[SammyG]

lol I was gone 5 minutes to get food and Umaga squashes Val.

[Londoner]

that should be a great highlight reel

[Fox]

Highlight Reel's going to be great tonight

[owenbrown]

Yay. We get to participate in another rigged WWE poll. :D

[Fabien Barthez]

Wow. He was better in 3 Minute Warning by miles.

[KingofOldSchool]

TEXT IN YOUR VOTES SINCE IT MEANS SOMETHING!

[NeanderCarl]

They're going down the Ricsploitation route now. They may as well have Batista wear a black armband with the letters "RF" for the next year. Take your own advice, Vince: leave the memories alone.

[Fox]

I love how they can make the History Channel look like a Michael Bay movie.

[Londoner]

i wonder what squash/jobber match is next

[Londoner]

probably a womens match

[Innovator]

Davey Boy Batista vs. HBM with THE MAN CHRIS BY GAWD JERICHO in the same ring

[Londoner]

Yes, i was right again.

[Innovator]

good call TL

[Londoner]

They must think we really like squash/womens matches

[Innovator]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES MICKIE

[KingofOldSchool]

Mickie comes out to Ashley's music. :(

[ClockShot]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

[dablackguy]

[Innovator]

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>*waits for Mickie to take the fall for her team*</font>

[owenbrown]

MICKIE JAMES IS ON RAW!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek:

[Jaton]

Man. I hate Ashley.

[Fox]

God I hate Ashley.

[KingofOldSchool]

YOU SUCK ASHLEY

[Azriel]

OMG it's Mickie!!! God, I want melina and Mickie so bad. jillian, I'm kinda still undecided about.

[Fabien Barthez]

Ah good. Brew making time.

Whats worth noting is I stayed for Umaga/Val.

And I leave when the women come on... WWE has ruined attractive women in small outfits for me.

[Innovator]

MICKIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Londoner]

gotta get the crap out the way first i guess

[dablackguy]

kinda wish JR would come out and say that this shit sucks

[Londoner]

mickie will win

[Fox]

[SammyG]

borrrrrrringggggggggg

[Londoner]

1..2...3

[Evil Vito]

[KingofOldSchool]

MICKIE WINS!

[NeanderCarl]

jillian, I'm kinda still undecided about.

I'll decide for you. Not hot.

[Jaton]

They scream entirely too much.

I really like Melina. Mickie goes without saying.

[Azriel]

Wow, Mickie was impressive.

[KingofOldSchool]

OMG SHE WON A MATCH!

[Fox]

Mickie James push is always a good thing

[Gerard]

bleh

[ClockShot]

Big deal.

Where the hell did Capt. Burchill and Katie go?

[SammyG]

I want to see Maria. And Santino. Now.

nvm WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Londoner]

there goes that tune again that i had stuck in my head for ages

[KingofOldSchool]

Mickie should have kicked Ashley when she was holding the ropes open.

[Fox]

Wow. They didn't plan anything for this RAW, did they?

[Londoner]

the one over the flair tribute

[owenbrown]

Pretty sad I would rather watch old sportswriters debate on ESPN than a women's tag match.

We're going to be rewatching Flair's Farewell morning, noon and bastard night for the rest of time (until he makes his anticlimactic return in about 3 months).

I love the guy, the claim of "greatest of all time" is not far off base but seriously, they've going to dilute the best wrestling send off of all time.

[Fox]

5 dollar foot long? Dude. That's awesome.

[Gerard]

Another look at the flair tribute, thats heyman blowing another gasket.

[KingofOldSchool]

Big deal.

Where the hell did Capt. Burchill and Katie go?

The Land of Heat

[Londoner]

Yeah carl, i wish they would just leave it as it is, surely they've done enough already.

[dablackguy]

Time for an XBLA break

[Azriel]

HBM really needs to ditch that hat

[Gerard]

Oh yay the pipers pit\snake pit knock off coming later.

[Londoner]

o well fuck it


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Volchok]

I love how the clock on the TU Center is wrong.

[Londoner]

nah he looks alright with the hat

[NeanderCarl]

Someone should make a Flair tribute set to the tune of Shadow Of The Day by Linkin Park. That would be sweet.

[Gerard]

HBM really needs to ditch that hat

All he needs is a few missing teeth and a piece of straw hanging out of his mouth to go with that hat to complete the look. Im assuming he's going for the bumpkin look at least.

[Volchok]

Fuckin hell though I was gonna go tonight but I forgot that they went on sale until it was to late. First time Raw is in Albany in about like 4 years.

[KingofOldSchool]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Volchok]

lol wtf has Cena ever done for Flair?

[Londoner]

volchuk, good thing you didn't go considering how its started.

[Innovator]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Londoner]

here goes that song again

[Volchok]

i can understand Batista and everyone else but John Cena?

[KingofOldSchool]

lol wtf has Cena ever done for Flair?

Saluted him?

[Fox]

Fuel sucks

[Gerard]

Did the 4 horsemen ever figure out that at numerous times there was 5 of them? Kinda reminds me of the lone ranger..just him and tonto.

[Londoner]

i love how cena got booed then

[Volchok]

shit wait they had the NYR when Edge won his first WWE Title in Albany but no live raws have been here in a long time.

[Gerard]

And thank you retarded american commerical system, come back from break for 2 mins then another break.

[NeanderCarl]

I love that when WWE gets something right, they're so pleased with themselves they'll show it constantly over and over again. Methinks they are a little insecure in their abilities to keep creating further great moments.

[Fabien Barthez]

LEAVE THE MEMORIES ALONE
DON'T CHANGE A THING
COS I JUST WANT YOU HEAR,
IN MY MEMORYYYY


YOU'LL NEVER CHANGE
YOU'LL NEVER CHANGE
YOU'LL NEVER CHANGE

YOU WILL NEV - ER CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGEEEEE

Seriously, that fake bullshit sentiment song has been the let down of the whole Flair retirement.

[Innovator]

GOD I HATE YOU FARNSWOGGLE

[SammyG]

I will never get tired of watching that. They should show that every Raw.

[Londoner]

so ever sicne the opening promo weve had whomaga squashing val venis, a shitty womens match, and now a recap of what happened with flair, and somehow they think thats ok to have yet more adverts straight after that, goddamnit.

[Azriel]

We going to have a Foley sighting tonight?

[SammyG]

TIGER WOODS WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[NeanderCarl]

shit wait they had the NYR when Edge won his first WWE Title in Albany but no live raws have been here in a long time.

'tis the venue of the greatest Royal Rumble match of all time though, so Albany fans can't feel ripped off.

16 years ago or not. :shifty:

[Londoner]

I love that when WWE gets something right, they're so pleased with themselves they'll show it constantly over and over again. Methinks they are a little insecure in their abilities to keep creating further great moments.

Yeah that and, they seem to think that as soon as they have written a good show or two that its ok to balance it out with far more shit ones.

[Innovator]

DEA WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Fabien Barthez]

Dont forget the announcement that the main event for Backlash is... Uncertain.

[Fox]

i can understand Batista and everyone else but John Cena?

This is probably part of it, or the beginning of whatever their relationship is:

[Gerard]

[Londoner]

Meeehhhh

[KingofOldSchool]

CADE AND MURDOCH VS. CRYME TYME AGAIN!

[Volchok]

I wanted Cryme Tyme :(

[Linkbowler]

Lance Cade's robe is gayer than AIDS.

[Londoner]

this might be good

[KingofOldSchool]

LONDON AND KENDRICK!

[Londoner]

[Fabien Barthez]

HHH was quite funny, but this has been a woeful 40 minutes so far...

Wow. Tag Teams are really getting a push right now. Shame there are no good ones.
