It will be Kurt Angle (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/kurtangle/) vs. Ric Flair (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/ricflair/), Shelton Benjamin (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/sheltonbenjamin/) vs. Carlito (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/carlito/), Chris Masters (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/chrismasters/) vs. Viscera (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/viscera/), Shawn Michaels (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/shawnmichaels/) vs. Big Show (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/bigshow/) and Triple H (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/tripleh/) vs. Kane (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/kane/).

[RemyRed]

I can call everyone one of those Elimination Qualifier matches. But then again that's nothing impressive.

[Volchok]

Angle, Shelton, Masters, HBK and Kane.. You can bank on that.

[RemyRed]

I think Carlito and Big Show are gonna win. Leading to an HBK vs Shelton.

[RemyRed]

Has HBK ever fought Big Show? Could be interesting.

[Blitz]

Anyone think we'll actually see a new GM tonight? I have a feeling they'll hold it off for a while.

[Azriel]

I think they'll have both Show and Kane to maybe set up a rivalry between them, and Shelton will lose, setting up Shelton vs. HBK at NYR

[HeartBreakMan2k]

*chants please don't go to Tajiri*

[Blitz]

*chants please don't go to Tajiri*

Maybe since he's leaving they'll let him win a match tonight... :shifty:

[Shadow]

HHH is gonna go over Kane and HBK over Show. Bank on that you bastards.

[Blitz]

Angle, Shelton, Masters, HBK and Kane.. You can bank on that.

I agree with you on everyone except Kane. Triple H will win because

A)Then Big Show and Kane can defend the tag belts
B)A 6 man world title match WITHOUT Triple H? Yeah right.

[Corkscrewed]

Angle, Masters, HHH, HBK, and Benjamin.

They could prolly set up HBK/Benjamin pretty well in the match itself.

BS/Kane need to be freed up to focus on their feud w/ Batista/Rey and any other Tag Title contenders.

[Azriel]

Jerry missed his cue :lol:

[Azriel]

Lillian can sure sing

[Shadow]

Welp...time for RAW.

Lets find out who the new GM is going to be.

[Azriel]

It's RAW time baby!!! WOOO!!!

[Azriel]

It'll be hard to top last week

[The Greater Power]

Ha, nice intro.

[Blitz]

BOOGEYMAN!!!! *auto mark out*

[Shadow]

Smart Maria....makes me feel funny in my pants.

[Azriel]

maria makes me feel funny in my pants in any way

[Corndad]

Gm Annoucement already?

[Azriel]

VINCE!!!

[Shadow]

Ahahahahahaha! Mic isn't working.

[Corndad]

LOL... wtf what a way to start...

[Xero]

LOL, owned.

[Blitz]

Please not Dusty, Please not Dusty...

[Blitz]

Please not Steph, Please not Steph...

[Shadow]

TED TURNER ON WWE PROGRAMING!?

Did hell and heaven freeze?

Oh man...they're going to drag this out for awhile now.

[6to1]

vince might as well be gm till bischoff gets back.

[Azriel]

So I guess Dusty is just going to be one of the interviewees

[Shadow]

YAY! THE CENSORING HAS STOPPED!

[Azriel]

Love uncensorship :lol:

[Corndad]

Kurts never been in the elimination chamber has he

[Azriel]

Coach, the new GM? Please no.

[Xero]

So, what will Boogeyman's interview be like?

[Shadow]

The return of the Nature Boy everyone...

Wait...where the hell is the IC title?

[Azriel]

Don't think so.

[Azriel]

This should be interesting

[Corndad]

Just wanna mention its glad to have ya back Azriel...

[Shadow]

I want to see this get reversed into the Figure 4. That'd be awsome.

[Azriel]

Thanks Thunder

[Azriel]

C'mon Ric

[Xero]

God Unlimited sucks. Does it stall on everyone else?

[Azriel]

working great for me

[Azriel]

Why are they still airing The Hulk on USA?

[Corndad]

Any C-fedder will apperciate this... I'm sitting here thinking if I ever get into a fued with Naitch, I'll have the pictures lol

[Shadow]

God Unlimited sucks. Does it stall on everyone else?

Probably your computer.

[Xero]

Probably your computer.
Nope, happens on both my PC and Laptop, and I have 6MBps broadband.

[Azriel]

That would be cool Thunder

[Shadow]

FIGURE 4!

[Corndad]

How would Angle beating Flair be an upset??

[Shadow]

Is it just me or was this match really really slow?

[The Greater Power]

HAHA great promo!

[Xero]

LOL

[Dorkchop]

Angle is awesome on the mic. I like it better when Daivari screams!

[Shadow]

But who hasn't spat in Larry Bird's face?

What the fuck is this supposed to prove anyways?

[Shadow]

Oh...never mind.

[Batsu]

WOW, they went there with Angle.

[Corndad]

If Cena's there home town hero... they are in trouble...

[Azriel]

Wow, what a promo

[Blitz]

Nice, Cena acknowledges the boos

[Corndad]

HAHAHA WOW!! "half the people think I suck"

[Xero]

LOL, Holy shit!

[AJHayes]

Cena is getting there with his character. He just admitted he sucks. Smart move on his part.

[Corndad]

Angle face turn now?

[The Greater Power]

"Half the people out there think I suck!" - John Cena.

ha

[Batsu]

Good line from Cena. "Half the people out there think I suck."

[Shadow]

............wait...did Cena just say that he knows half the people out there think he sucks?

Well Cena just got his credibility back in the minds of the marks.

[Corkscrewed]

Haha, yeah, Cena acknowledging the boos. Good exchange. Vince must be yelling through the headset tho.

[Tiken]

Hey Cena's right. Half the people out there do think he sucks

[DaVe]

Where will that go?

[Corkscrewed]

And then he desecrates the camera... Vince is gonna have a heart attack.

The overpatriotism was a bit sickening tho.

[Azriel]

Ashley :drool:

[6to1]

good about time for cena to go heel.

[Ninti the Mad]

Nope, happens on both my PC and Laptop, and I have 6MBps broadband.


video card or ram or both

[Corndad]

Ashley in lingerie on Unlimited... not as great as smart Maria last week, but definately bulge coming out here.

[AJHayes]

Cena admitting that half the people thinks he sucks could really wind up going places. I haven't thought about where it could go... but definately somewhere.

[Blitz]

The overpatriotism was a bit sickening tho.

Really, all that that just to try to get people to stop booing Cena.

[Azriel]

I'd certainly like to see Cena go back heel

[Xero]

Hey Cena's right. Half the people out there do think he sucks
More than that, so he's a lying fuck face.

[Batsu]

A pretty powerful segment there...

Cena showed he wasn't naive.... Angle, man, I can't believe they went there with him. Mr. America himself...taking a shit on the troops.

[Ninti the Mad]

VINCE IS NOT MAD ITS ALL PLANNED

Also, the camera was probably set with a window shield so yeah.

[Destor]

good about time for cena to go heel.

Cena isn't going heel.

[Xero]

VINCE IS NOT MAD ITS ALL PLANNED

Also, the camera was probably set with a window shield so yeah.
REALLY!? OMFG RSSLNG IS FAEK!?

[Corndad]

Edge Flair at NYR....

[Shadow]

.............Edge hiding behind Lita....that's so heelish.

Oh...NYR...Edge vs. Ric Flair. BANK ON THAT!

[Xero]

You see, that slow ass taunt is finally catching up to him.

[Corndad]

Shelton's promos are getting better.

[Batsu]

Shelton seems a lot less nervous on the mic now.

[Dorkchop]

I'd certainly like to see Cena go back heel

Everything about Cena was created when he was a heel. It worked so much better when he was a heel because it was so ridculous.

Shelton was awesome talking to HBK! If he can always be like that, he'll be uuuuuuge.

[Azriel]

Shelton had a good promo there

[Azriel]

btw, anyone read shawn's book yet?

[Azriel]

Shut up Todd

[Corndad]

Whippleman Fan Club sign on Unlimited = Ratings

[Azriel]

That was pretty good :lol:

[Azriel]

Seriously though, shut up Todd :lol:

[DaVe]

Who is laughing in the background?

[Corndad]

Theres no stopping my heel turn now!!!!!

[Azriel]

Maybe Jerry?

[Corndad]

When is Carlito gonna be Face...seems he got a better reaction the Shelton

[Ninti the Mad]

REALLY!? OMFG RSSLNG IS FAEK!?

shut the fuck up

[Azriel]

Hopefully not for awhile. He's awesome as a heel

[Shadow]

I'd love to se Carlito as a face...he could spit in heel's faces!

[Corndad]

the crowd seems so dead for this match...

[Savio]

its either gonna be Bigshow vs HHH at NYR or HBK vs Shelton in a single match.

[Azriel]

Good thought Savior

[Shadow]

T-BONE!

[Savio]

TYE
DYE
GUY

[Corndad]

Yup... HBKs losing later....

[Azriel]

Shelton! You suck!

[Shadow]

And now they're going somewhere with this whole losing streak thing.

[Batsu]

POSSUM PIN!!! L2 AND CIRCLE!

[KingofOldSchool]

Shelton should've spat a watermelon in Carlito's face. :shifty:

[Batsu]

They seemed a little disjointed there, movewise, but there was some innovation there.

[Corndad]

Big Shows in... look at the size of the graphic on the top right next time its up.

[Shadow]

And my night just got a whole lot better.

[The Greater Power]

lmao @ the music

[Xero]

TM the GM?

[Corndad]

Candice as General Manager lol

[Corndad]

whats up with the music lol

[Azriel]

Candice :drool: :drool:

[Zen v.W.o.]

That was awkward. Vince is a fucking annoying old perv.

[zdmay]

Trevor Murdoch has "ideals". lol

[Destor]

Would you guys like some wrestling with your soft-core porn?

[Azriel]

Maria :drool:

[Savio]

Wow candice welcome to 10 months ago.....learn a new move.

[DaVe]

She sounds like a little girl.

[Azriel]

Poor Maria sounds lioke she got a cold

[Corndad]

Another thought I had... they better have Tajri on tonight since they talked so much about this being his last night

[Shadow]

Would you guys like some wrestling with your soft-core porn?

Not really.

[Corndad]

Then me rephrase.. have him on and win a match.

[Azriel]

This should be fun

[Azriel]

Did they just spoil Smackdown? :lol:

[Shadow]

Well that's one way to stop the Big Show.

[Shadow]

Why would HBK want the match to go on for a long time? Slow and Steady would be Big Show's style really.

[Azriel]

chop him to death :lol:

[DaVe]

What is the way? :(

[Dorkchop]

I'd actually really like to see the Big Show in the Chamber. That was a grea match.

[Batsu]

I almost forgot about that Big Show-HHH feud.

[Shadow]

Welp...that was one way to keep Big Show out of the EC.

[Loose Cannon]

now I'm convinced Show, Kane and Trips are together

[DaVe]

Nah, he'd be eliminated like Kane was in the first EC - everyone else's finishing moves.

[Shadow]

....A Blindfold Match?

[Xero]

LOL, now Cena has a specialty match.

[Batsu]

You know what, I think I like this new Angle....

[Destor]

You cant see me match :roll:

[Loose Cannon]

Angle's doing a version of th Bret Hart gimmick in 97.

[Azriel]

Poor Vince got prematurely interrupted :lol:

[Corndad]

Does this mean HHH will get screwed later or will they go with HHH/Show at NYR?

[Azriel]

Squash match next.

[Shadow]

Now if only the rest of us couldn't see them...

[Corndad]

I would cry is Vis is in the Chamber..

[The Greater Power]

Does this mean HHH will get screwed later or will they go with HHH/Show at NYR?

I dunno man, what we just saw made things a whole lot more interesting.

I wouldn't mind seeing Kane in the EC, maybe causing some differences between him and Show how he made it and Show didn't or something.

[Azriel]

Dropped the whole Lillian/Viscera thing huh?

[Shadow]

Correction...now if only the rest of us couldn't see this man.

[Azriel]

It's the Crappypiece

[Savio]

This may actually be a good match.

[Azriel]

That is a pretty cool entrance though

[Corndad]

I dunno man, what we just saw made things a whole lot more interesting.

I wouldn't mind seeing Kane in the EC, maybe causing some differences between him and Show how he made it and Show didn't or something.

Im guessing maybe Show will come down... try to hit HHH, end up hitting Kane giving HHH the win.

[Azriel]

Start youer watches

[Shadow]

Oh great...if Masters wins...he'll be the youngest WWE champion at 22....

So first Lesner, then Orton...now Masters?

When they have a 12 yar old win the WWE champion...we can start crying.

[Azriel]

I think I'll start crying if Masters were to become WWE champion, then I'd stop watching

(well, maybe not :lol: )

[Azriel]

Boring chants, huh? :lol:

[Shadow]

And it's offical...Big Vis can do the Black Hole Slam better than Abyss.

How does this change anything? The shoulders are still the same....oy. IT'S THREE ARM RAISES YOU MORON!

[Azriel]

That really ticks me off too Shadow

[Batsu]

LOL @ that Piss Break, that was actually kind of funny

[Shadow]

I mean...honestly. Why do they change that rule for everyone but Masters?

[Azriel]

Oh, big suprise. HHH getting the main event over the Champ.

[McLegend]

And it's offical...Big Vis can do the Black Hole Slam better than Abyss.
Abyss's Black Hole Slam>Big Vis's

[Corndad]

Which is gonna turn Mickey or Trish?

[Azriel]

Mickie playing the guilt complex :lol:

[Shadow]

Abyss's Black Hole Slam>Big Vis's

Yeah but Big Vis doesn't drop people on their head all the time.

[Destor]

Trish

[Azriel]

I think Mickey should. Trish just turned

[Azriel]

Okay, kinda defeats the purpose of having this online if you're gonna recap

[The Greater Power]

haha people walking around in the locker room

[Corndad]

Striker on Raw??

[The Greater Power]

hahahah wtf

[Azriel]

What the...?

[Destor]

Matt Striker :y:

[Azriel]

Oh lordy

[The Greater Power]

How about Masters comes out and locks in the Master Lock on Striker now.

[Azriel]

It's true

[Batsu]

LMFAO @ THIS

[Corndad]

How about Masters comes out and locks in the Master Lock on Striker now.

How bout no....

[Destor]

He's

[Azriel]

Striker's got potential

[Batsu]

Old School Kurt Angle

[Skippord]

Smoking the pot ROFL

[The Greater Power]

n00bish question:

Was this guy on Tough Enough?

[Destor]

He's not wrong. :nono:

[Azriel]

The guy who tapped out like a bitch to Kurt Angle?

[The Greater Power]

oh my god

[Skippord]

Chris Fucking Nowinski

[Destor]

Dusty





























































































NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo

[Batsu]

LMAO!!

Nowitzki and Dusty.

[McLegend]

Greatest Momement ever in the History of RAw there

[Azriel]

It's Zach Morris :lol:

[Loose Cannon]

:eek: Zack Morris on Raw

[Corndad]

Nowinski!!!!!

[Loose Cannon]

ROFL @ Striker

[Savio]

What did nowinski say?

[HeartBreakMan2k]

LMFAO at the American Dream on unlimited

[Azriel]

:lol: at Vince

[HeartBreakMan2k]

It's official, after that segment I want Dusty as GM. Damn all to hell the fact that he would suck as GM, the man is funny as shit when doing a promo.

[AJHayes]

God I love Micki James. Even more than I love Trish.

[Azriel]

Ok, Trish is turning

[Loose Cannon]

Zack Morris crashed the server

[Corndad]

Did she just say new years resolution lol

[Azriel]

It's Revolution! Not resolution

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Mickie: "And it would be actually, more of an honor if I actually win the ..."
*Trish gets closer*
Mickie: "uh... hi... it'll be more of honor to just be in the ring with you, and not just in yur corner :shifty:"


lol

[Azriel]

Hey, she's hot, so she's forgiven :lol:

[Hardkore Kidd J]

n00bish question:

Was this guy on Tough Enough?

I don't think so I'm not too sure about this guy he's playing a Teacher on Raw and yet he was fired as a teacher before coming to WWE well I think all I know is this guy was a former teacher.

[Azriel]

Oh yeah, Trish is turning.

[Hardkore Kidd J]

n00bish question:

Was this guy on Tough Enough?

I don't think so I'm not too sure about this guy he's playing a Teacher on Raw and yet he was fired as a teacher before coming to WWE well I think all I know is this guy was a former teacher. That guy has some potential now and I don't even think it's a recycled gimmick or is it? I haven't been watching for very long.

[Azriel]

Come on Kane!

[Corndad]

Shows coming out to hit HHH and ends up hitting Kane... Better get some rep when that happens

[Azriel]

Maybe Tajiri will have a skit where he tries to interview for GM

[Azriel]

I would Thunder, but I need to spread the love

[Loose Cannon]

Sticky :shifty:

[Azriel]

Finally :roll:

[Azriel]

C'mon Kane.

[DaVe]

Why is Triple H destroying Kane? :(

Edit: Nevermind.

[Azriel]

Cause he's HHH and he's that damn good?

[Shadow]

Well this'll be interesting...

[Batsu]

Zack Morris?!

[redoneja]

Shows coming out to hit HHH and ends up hitting Kane... Better get some rep when that happens

Or Show costs HHH the match setting up a Show/HHH match at New Year's Revolution. Otherwise if Kane and Big Show were in the Chamber together then they would have to write it out where they get quadruple teamed by the other four men to get eliminated. Plus we would avoid in issues with Kane having to wrestle Big Show. If Show gets his program with HHH over by NYR or Royal Rumble, then that frees him up to move into a tag program with Kane vs 3MW(if that is who is going to challenge them).

[Azriel]

Certainly not as entertaining as last week, but a solid show nonetheless

[Azriel]

Zack Morris?!
C-fed thing :lol:

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Why was there no Tajiri or did I miss something?

[Mr. Nerfect]

So are they having several candidates run for GM? YES! Nowinski was on RAW. He's your money man.

[Azriel]

Ref bump.

Drink!

[Corndad]

Ref bump... and here comes Show

[Mr. Nerfect]

Why was there no Tajiri or did I miss something?

He'll probably job to Trevor Murdoch on Heat.

[Linkbowler]

Stop. Hammer time.

[Azriel]

It's Sledgy!

[Corndad]

Its so freaking obvious!!

[Mr. Nerfect]

Triple H will win.

[DaVe]

Hm.=/

[Shadow]

At least he didn't kick out.

Big Show vs. HHH at NYR.

[Corndad]

Well, theres ur HHH/Show Match

[Azriel]

You were saying Thunder?

[Linkbowler]

Well that was unexpected. No HHH in a title match?

[Azriel]

Shocking. Ain't it?

[Shadow]

Also....that was an actually interesting HHH match. And how often have I....

Did that chick....never mind.

[Corndad]

Oh well could still use some rep... had the obvious Show run in anyway

[McLegend]

look at HHH holding talent down

[6to1]

i love show and kane togather there a good team.

[Skippord]

Was Show playing with Kanes ass just then
