Wanted to make the Raw thread for today because it's my birthday :cool:

NO ONE'S SAFE
RAW Preview for June 6, 2005

<!-- InstanceEndEditable --><!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="show-photo" -->
<!-- InstanceEndEditable --><!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="show-content" -->Let the draft lottery commence.

Who will be the first SmackDown! Superstar drafted over to RAW, and what will the ripple effect be across WWE? Chairman Mr. McMahon has made it clear that no one is safe from the draft process — and that trades can occur up until June 30. We also learned that Y2J will interview the first pick exclusively on The Highlight Reel

WATCH THE DRAFT VIDEO PREVIEW: 56k (http://javascript<img%20src=&quot;images/smilies/tongue.gif&quot;%20border=&quot;0&quot;%20alt=&quot;&quot;%20title=&quot;Stick%20Out%20Tongue&quot;%20smilieid=&quot;5&quot;%20class=&quot;inlineimg&quot;% 20/>opwwevideo1('','smackdown/200506/2rawrebound56','RAW%20Rebound','smackdown','56');) | 300k (http://javascript<img%20src=&quot;images/smilies/tongue.gif&quot;%20border=&quot;0&quot;%20alt=&quot;&quot;%20title=&quot;Stick%20Out%20Tongue&quot;%20smilieid=&quot;5&quot;%20class=&quot;inlineimg&quot;% 20/>opwwevideo1('','smackdown/200506/2rawrebound300','RAW%20Rebound','smackdown','300');)


Many Superstars have expressed concerns about being drafted, although last week Christian seemed excited by the potential of a move. But now the waiting is over. All that remains is for name No. 1 to be drawn — as a SmackDown! Superstar says goodbye to his familiar surroundings and heads to Monday nights. Don’t miss the event that could change the face of RAW.

Meanwhile, Triple H and Batista will make it official when they sign the contract that will put them inside Hell in a Cell. Last time these two were in the ring for a contract signing, Batista put The Game through a table with a Batista Bomb. Surely, both men will be ready for anything.

(Okay, I think I'll stop spamming the htread now)

[Marcyo]

HAPPY B-DAY GOHAN :D

[Marcyo]

oh and also, I can't wait for Raw. :y:

[Xero]

You know, I just thought of something. This whole 'anyone is game' thing means anyone can be traded. ANYONE. Why do I see, as one of the last picks, either Bischoff or Long pulling out 'Vince McMahon' or 'Stephanie McMahon'?

I'm not saying that it would be the smartest move, nor do I think Vince should return full time, but I could seriously see something like this happening.

[Gouda]

Vince is omnipotent and is not restricted to any show.

In the storylines, Stephanie McMahon "quit" or "got fired", one of them, and "doesn't work" for them anymore.

[Xero]

Vince is omnipotent and is not restricted to any show.

In the storylines, Stephanie McMahon "quit" or "got fired", one of them, and "doesn't work" for them anymore.
That doesn't mean that either name couldn't be thrown into both pots.

I don't know, it was just a thought. :o

Of course, if Vince WERE drafted, he'd take it up with the 'board of directors', who reign above him in storylines.

[PorkSoda]

I think the ropes will get traded tonight. So Raw will have blue ropes and Smackdown will have red.

Or Al Snow's Head will get traded. Jericho talking to a head would be interesting

[Savio]

Damn I missed it...happy birth day.

[Eunos]

Im gonna watch the first hour.

I got work tomorrow but i really wanna know whos getting traded and ill be pissed off if it's one of those 245245 Divas or something stupid like that.

[Shadow]

Vince is omnipotent and is not restricted to any show.

In the storylines, Stephanie McMahon "quit" or "got fired", one of them, and "doesn't work" for them anymore.

We're not supposed to remember that btw.

Oh and.........

FINNALLY...SHADOW HAS COME BACK...TO A RAW THREAD!

[Volchok]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I don't remember being this hyped for Raw in a long ass time...

[The Answer]

I predict that the first Smackdown guy picked tonight will be Mark Jindrak.

[Volchok]

Happy Birthday Gohanika

[thefu14]

My money is still on Kidman.

[Volchok]

1k on Funaki...

[thefu14]

deal.

[thefu14]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I don't remember being this hyped for Raw in a long ass time...

Agreed. It's gonna be a good one.

[The Answer]

My money is still on Kidman.

I originally thought it would be either Haas or Kidman but Haas has been working well with Holly on Smackdown so I doubt he moves. Kidman seems like a good choice though. I feel it is either him or Jindrak because their two youngsters that need something to do.

[Volchok]

lol..fucked that up..

[Shadow]

It'll be....

THE FIST!

[Volchok]

I wanna see Cena or Batista get traded, that would really shake things up and prove that anything can happen..

[Loose Cannon]

yo, I fucking pumped for this. seriously, like I never get real excited about Raw beforehand anymore, but this one I am.

I didn't even read that little "Raw Spoiler" thread because I don't wanna know anything.

[RGWhat316]

Damn, I'm pretty excited for the draft tonight, but it will have to wait until tomorrow. Working midnights has its disadvantages, and this is one of them. So I'll be taping it, and have to watch tomorrow.

[Volchok]

I really want Head... anyone know where i can get it?

[The Answer]

yo, I fucking pumped for this. seriously, like I never get real excited about Raw beforehand anymore, but this one I am.

I didn't even read that little "Raw Spoiler" thread because I don't wanna know anything.

Thread doesn't state much just something pretty obvious if you think about it. It has nothing to with the draft either.

[SammyG]

I have a bad feeling hardcore holly will be on raw

[Azriel]

I cannot wait. 20 minutes till awesomeness

[V]

better draft someone good for my b-day

i want something good wrestling related to happen on... 2 years ago Jamie Noble had his debut on my birthday :nono:

[PullMyFinger]

happy birthday, you're one year older ;)

Anyhow, I doubt someone like Funaki will get drafted tonight. I'm assuming tonight they want to start it off with a "BANG! BANG!" (i know, my references are lame :() and have someone shocking traded.

[mike627]

Happy Birthday!:) :cool:

[Volchok]

Shockmaster?

[Azriel]

It'll probably be someone lower midcard, then at the last week, it'll be someoone major

[Loose Cannon]

[Azriel]

Here we go

[Shadow]

Let's soo who it is...

And gods does Eric look like an idiot when he's all giddy.

[SuperSlim]

let's see who it is

[Loose Cannon]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. TAKER :drool:

[Kane Knight]

Gah. Way to kill the draft, fuckers. :foc: WEE.

[Xero]

It's Angle, I guarantee it. He chose it, so it's Angle.

Or the Undertaker. It's one or the other.

[mike627]

Heh, ECW is gonna crash the party!

[LK]

Taker, I would say

[Loose Cannon]

LOL Bischoff is fucking hillarious

[Azriel]

I guess its someone big.

[SuperSlim]

Angle

[Loose Cannon]

Taker, I would say

hey, don't copy me

[darkpower]

See if this starts with a HHH promo, I may actually throw a brick through the TV
May not be...he said the pick is going to come out shortly...so the Highlight Reel first?

[LK]

Heidenreich!!!!!!!!!!

[Loose Cannon]

RAW THREAD 2005 IS LC

[Kane Knight]

See if this starts with a HHH promo, I may actually throw a brick through the TV
You're safe, apparently. Or your TV is./

[Loose Cannon]

TAPING THIS MO FO

[Shadow]

Anytime you start RAW off with Jericho.....it'll be a good RAW.

[SuperSlim]

Could be Eddie

[mike627]

Oh yeah, HIAC contract. :-\

[Kane Knight]

Y! 2! JAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

[Loose Cannon]

HEEL JERICHO THAT IS BETTER THEN YOU = RATINGS

[darkpower]

Maybe Angle, the way Bishoff was going.

[Azriel]

Taker or Angle would be coolness, especially Taker. Maybe Big Show?

[Xero]

Jerichoooooo!

It has to be someone charismatic and funny for Jericho. It has to be Kurk Angel.

[Shadow]

I know who it is...It's Brock Lesner!

[SuperSlim]

Shannon! Shannon!

[Loose Cannon]

LOL JERICHO

[mike627]

Y2J lol, Fozzy promo.

[Kane Knight]

Anytime you start RAW off with Jericho.....it'll be a good RAW.

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

Well this is odd.

[Sepholio]

OMG CENA YES YES YES

[Loose Cannon]

YEA BITCH. START DROPPING F BOMBS NOW

[Azriel]

Probably won't stay though. Somethings gonna happen

[Xero]

Holy shit. I honestly did NOT see that coming.

Well, it looks like Batista is going to SmackDown!...

[Kane Knight]

no wonder Bisch was ecstatic
Yeah. Eric's a closet Wigger.

[darkpower]

Wait....this might be a rip...he might be wanting to introduce it himself...

Didn't Vince say the SD stars would be on RAW notherless anyway?

[Shadow]

CENA! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Batsu]

Holy CRAP...Cena!

[The One]

So does this mean Christian doesn't go to SmackDown???

[V]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Loose Cannon]

YO YO YO BITCH. SHUT THE FUCK UP

[Kane Knight]

UNDISPUTED CHAMPION!

[addy2hotty]

[SammyG]

[Loose Cannon]

Man, this is awesome.

[Nark Order]

This is so wierd.

What will poor Xtian do?

[Shadow]

Here's something ironic...

Wasn't Jericho Cena's first offical WWE win?

[LK]

[Loose Cannon]

Trade Trips to Smackdown. PLEASEEEEEEEE

[Nark Order]

[M. Banana]

[Supermark101]

Who was it that said Cena would be first. Hmmmm I cant remember.

Cena + CHRISTIAN = GOLD

[Nark Order]

[Rain Man]

Mark McGiwire.. Haha That is good stuff

[Azriel]

LC would explode Shadow

[Sepholio]

[Loose Cannon]

[addy2hotty]

I'm sooo glad I stayed up for this.

[Nark Order]

poser

[LK]

Best segment in ages and no big nose. Telling you anything Vince.

[Nark Order]

Take him, Captain

[Loose Cannon]

Fuck him up Christian

[Shadow]

This will be great. We've been waiting since Royal Rumble.

CENA'S BATTLE RAPPING!

[LK]

creepy little bastard

[Xero]

Bastard! :love:

[Nark Order]

Brood reference

[Gone Mad]

HEHE, I'm like a little school girl right now! I am so loving this right now.

Capt. Charisma v. Dr. of Thugomanics!

LOL @ Gangrel joke

[darkpower]

HAHAHA!!! Brood memories.

[Loose Cannon]

OH SHIT. OLD SCHOOL CENA

[Azriel]

Cena/Christian=ratings

Old skool reference too

[LK]

bring him down Christian, he sucks

[Rain Man]

This Christian Cena thing is pretty gross I think I have a boner

[Nark Order]

Fuck him up Christian

[Supermark101]

Best Cena Promo in a LONG time.

[Zen v.W.o.]

America has no taste. Christian is the man.

[Sepholio]

GOD I AM MARKING OUT SO DAMN HARD RIGHT NOW.

Is there by chance a TPWW RAW chat going on tonight somewhere? Like AIM or something?

[Shadow]

This is the show that Cena needed to be on since day one of the rapping gimmiack.

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

What if Christian wins the belt then gets drafted.

Oh fuc</>k that would be awesome

[Azriel]

:lol: Cena is on

[Loose Cannon]

LOL CENA

[Batsu]

LMFAO...This is CLASSIC CENA.

[LK]

This is awesome real John Cena

[Nark Order]

All Cena ever does is make homosexual refereces

[Xero]

OH MY GOD! CENA RULES!

[Azriel]

DAMN!!

[Loose Cannon]

LOL @ POSE

[addy2hotty]

Here we go!

[Sepholio]

FU TO TOMKO EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Shadow]

BEST FU I'VE SEEN IN SO GOD DAMN LONG!

[LK]

That was the best thing ever

[Xero]

Real FU. Real raps. Holy shit Cena just got hot.

[addy2hotty]

Amazing start to Raw, hats off to the writers (for once).

[Azriel]

Jericho's still just tweening

[Gone Mad]

Oh. My. God. This is greatness, damn you!

What will happen next, I ask you!

[Nark Order]

Christian better get his shot tonight

[RemyRed]

Well looks like Triple H will be the next Undisputed Champion. Way to kill wrestling (for me anyway).

[Supermark101]

This opens up sooooo many posiblities

[wrestlingking]

this is the best star of raw in yrs possibly ever

[Azriel]

I hope Cena stays now

[LK]

Well that was awesome

[Loose Cannon]

Wow, is it me or did Cena just get 1000000000 x better

[Bischoff187]

that was huge.

[The One]

JR

Amazing...absolutly amazing!

For once, you are dead right.

[Xero]

If Cena keeps promoing like that, he'll be huge.

[Azriel]

tag match? cena/jericho vs. goat boy and captain charisma?

[6to1]

now time to send trips and batista to smackdown. so they can have there feud.

[JT]

John Cena in the house!

ECW in the house!

This could be one of the biggest RAWs in a very long time. :D

[Supermark101]

Oh. My. God. This is greatness, damn you!

What will happen next, I ask you!

Cena gets traded back to Smackdown. Teddy long gives up 2 or 3 names to get him back.

[Sepholio]

I wonder if Cena's Gangrel reference is hyping up a possible return of Gangrel.

[Shadow]

Does it matter if Jericho's tweening? It was still a great opening to RAW. One of the best I've ever seen.

More than my hats off to the writers...my pants off to them.

[RawRocks]

wow. i am speechless!

[Nark Order]

What if Christian pulls a Carlito and takes the belt?!? I would freak out.

[LK]

Wow, is it me or did Cena just get 1000000000 x better
Funny how that happens when he says his own stuff, isn't it?

[darkpower]

Ehhh...I knew they would find some way to fuck up SD once more.

The way we're going, they'll probably get JBL, Angle, Booker, and Show, and SD getting only Velocity material.

Talk about wanting to make RAW even MORE top heavy.

[Batsu]

Man, they should just take HHH and that other belt on to SmackDown. This is the Cena-Christian show. Keep Orton on Raw and all will be wily.

[Loose Cannon]

well, Great Raw guys. Off to bed

[The One]

Maybe Hunter can win the World Heavyweight Title at Vengence, then get drafted to SmackDown...he and Steph can fuck that show up all they want, leave the young bucks like Christian, Batista, Jericho, Shelton, Cena (who's stock just sky rocketed in my book), and then draft Guerrero over to RAW as well...and have RAW be the shit!

[Zen v.W.o.]

Jericho should have helped Christian beat Cena's ass. The problem solver sucks, as he cant do anything right.

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

As long as each show has a title by the end of the draft and Christian gets a push towards the main event, I'll be happy.

Great opening, very unexpected. They better not backtrack and have people moving back and forth though.

[RawRocks]

i wouldnt think Cena would be elligible to be drafted by Smackdown now.

[RemyRed]

Cena gets traded back to Smackdown. Teddy long gives up 2 or 3 names to get him back.
I hope so. Raw sucks.

[Loose Cannon]

oh yea, forgot about ECW.

[Fenix122]

wow...i leave for 15 min and it's page 6 already

[addy2hotty]

What if Christian pulls a Carlito and takes the belt?!? I would freak out.

*dreams*

Won't happen though, in a million years.

[LK]

What if Christian pulls a Carlito and takes the belt?!? I would freak out.
I think I would actually die from the excitement

[Shadow]

well, Great Raw guys. Off to bed

LOL.

[Nark Order]

Naw, the belt will end back on Smackdown. Mark my words.

[Azriel]

:lol: Stick around

[Supermark101]

i wouldnt think Cena would be elligible to be drafted by Smackdown now.


YES, but he can be "TRADED"

[Shadow]

....a 2 on 1 match for the IC title?

Explain to me the logic WWE.

[Loose Cannon]

Just make Smackdown a recap show :lol:

[Nark Order]

Handicap IC title match? lol

[Volchok]

holy fuck.. i marked out like a mad man... this thursday send HHH to Smackdown...

[The One]

I bet Diavari wins the title...

[Azriel]

Oh God. Lame

[darkpower]

Maybe Hunter can win the World Heavyweight Title at Vengence, then get drafted to SmackDown...he and Steph can fuck that show up all they want, leave the young bucks like Christian, Batista, Jericho, Shelton, Cena (who's stock just sky rocketed in my book), and then draft Guerrero over to RAW as well...and have RAW be the shit!
And leave SD with what, exactly?

They have to give the people on SD SOME way to get over. Taking every top-carder on SD to RAW is not going to help the reasoning for the brand extension any.

[LK]

Hassan and Daivari vs Benjamin for IC title

[LK]

Benjamin to pin Daivari, guarantee it

[Nark Order]

yeah, they are really fucking Smackdown over

[Bischoff187]

man these crowds are stupid.

[Loose Cannon]

yea, HHH and Masters to Smackdown

Guerrero and Angle to Raw

[Shadow]

Wow this is so quiet right now. Everyone's marked out from Cena punking out the Captian.

[The One]

And leave SD with what, exactly?

They have to give the people on SD SOME way to get over. Taking every top-carder on SD to RAW is not going to help the reasoning for the brand extension any.

Hunter going to SmackDown with the WHC isn't a fair exchange for Cena and the WWE Title? I know in the real world it isn't, but in WWE's mind SmackDown is getting the better of the deal...

basically I was just looking for a way I only need to watch on show a week.
