The Champ is back
January 30, 2006

Hot on the heels of the Royal Rumble, “The Champ” is back as RAW rolls into Orlando, Florida, tonight.

Last night, John Cena defeated Edge at the Royal Rumble to once again become WWE Champion. After the match, Edge was irate when Todd Grisham asked him about becoming the “transitional champion” he said he wouldn’t be. Edge will have his chance to redeem himself tonight on RAW as he take on The Champ in a Royal Rumble rematch for the WWE Championship. Can Edge bounce back from a disappointing Royal Rumble?

The World Tag Team Champions, Big Show and Kane, teamed up momentarily during the Royal Rumble last night, but then focused their attentions on each other, allowing Triple H to eliminate them both. Tonight they will team up to defend the gold against Carlito and Chris Masters. Carlito got the best of Masters at New Year's Revolution in the Elimination Chamber and did the same last night at the Rumble. The two will have to patch things up if they want to become World Tag Team Champions.

Also last night, Triple H nearly went the distance, being the second-to-last man eliminated from the Royal Rumble Match after drawing No. 1. Will the Game have anything to say about his performance?

Plus, Gregory Helms shocked everyone by entering the Open Invitational Match at the Royal Rumble, outlasting five SmackDown Superstars to become the new Cruiserweight Champion. What’s next for the former superhero now that he has brought the gold to RAW?

[Xero]

The Hunter/Cena feud beings tonight I bet. I hope it's an instant fan double-turn...

[Y3J]

Do you think Rey will make an appearance?

[Blitz]

I say Carlito and Masters win the tag belts tonight.

[The Greater Power]

I'm actually looking forward to HHH's promo, especially if it is directed at Cena.

[Y3J]

I say Carlito and Masters win the tag belts tonight.

I hope Masters doesn't interfere with the RVD/Carlito feud, which btw is gonna kick ass.

[Xero]

Also last night, Triple H nearly went the distance, being the second-to-last man eliminated from the Royal Rumble Match after drawing No. 1. Will the Game have anything to say about his performance?
Triple H: Okay, we're going to cut Shane's match to five minutes, extend Cena's by 10, and the main event will be a 2:00 promo by me, including overrun...

[St. Jimmy]

i'm looking forward to RAW tonight after the WTF PPV of the year (to date...)

[Cool King]

i'm looking forward to RAW tonight after the WTF PPV of the year (to date...)

[Azriel]

Usually the stuf leading up to mania has good stuff, so I'm optimistic

[Azriel]

So, you think Carlito/Masters will win the tag belts or no? One of those teams are going to face each other at Mania I'm sure. The question is, who?

[The Greater Power]

Both

[Volchok]

I read somewhere tonight is a supershow.. So Rey might show up.

[Azriel]

Here we go.

[St. Jimmy]

[Blitz]

[The Greater Power]

[St. Jimmy]

i didn't see that coming! =)

[Blitz]

Can everyone else hear the audience real well? I just heard some guy call Vince a homo fag.

[The Greater Power]

LOL VINCE

[Blitz]

I'd pop for the Boogeyman right now...

[The Greater Power]

..........HERE COMES THE MONEY........

[St. Jimmy]

this is awkward =/

[Blitz]

Nice shoes, Shane.

[The Greater Power]

Shane chants?

[RP]

Can you say HBK vs Shane at the next ppv

[St. Jimmy]

Shane'O'Mac always brings the heat.

[Azriel]

Love heel Shane

[LK]

LC!

[Azriel]

Woah, Snitsky on Raw?

[Azriel]

Betcha that wont be the last we hear from Shawn tonight

[LK]

It's not his fault :shifty:

[Azriel]

I'd much rather see Shane vs. Shawn, then him vs. Vince

[Blitz]

RVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Greater Power]

RVD

[St. Jimmy]

RVD!

[Azriel]

RVD!!

[LK]

Nice to see that they are going to capatlise on the interest in Van Dam.

[Xero]

LOL, Hunter and Steph's bus was in the background...

[RP]

Welcome back to your grave RVD

[Azriel]

But against Snitsky? Whatever

[Azriel]

And the crowd goes wild

[ThruTheWire]

RVD botch ? no way!

[St. Jimmy]

hey, a little ring rust isn't a big deal.

[Blitz]

For some reason, I feel like the Spirit Squad will come out after this match.

[Azriel]

Is Snitsky trying to look like Tomko?

[darkpower]

Seem like they are doing better at covering up the botches and fan turns. :shifty:

[Batsu]

Yeah. At least RVD sold well to cover up the FUBARs.

[darkpower]

OH, and I am here for tonight, so people know.

[darkpower]

BORING CHANTS!!

[Blitz]

Did I just hear a "boring" chant?

[ThruTheWire]

OH, and I am here for tonight, so people know.

THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP

[RP]

Boring boring boring

[Blitz]

If this crowd is chanting boring at RVD, I can't wait till Cena comes out.

[Azriel]

Indeed. That was the best pairing off WWE could think of?

[St. Jimmy]

i wonder if there IS something wrong with RVD...

[darkpower]

I think they were motivated by the boring chants....to be more boring.

[Blitz]

5 Star, baby.

[darkpower]

THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP

So very welcome :naughty:

[LK]

I suspect that the "BORING" chants were directed at the offence of Snitsky, considering his God awfulness.

[The Greater Power]

that was a lot of spinning kicks by RVD....like 4

[Azriel]

Missed the 5 star frogsplash

[St. Jimmy]

lmao @ that taker bit from last night.

[ThruTheWire]

i wonder if there IS something wrong with RVD...

He was honestly half as good as usual. I think he'll get better in a few weeks.

[RP]

Bob Ortons hepatitus gives Undertaker crazy powers.

[Blitz]

Those first bolts didn't show on TV last night.

[darkpower]

I'm very confused with this Masters and Carlito thing. Are they even gonna do anything with it? Is there a POINT to that?

[Azriel]

The HHH toilet paper was cool

[St. Jimmy]

don't get me wrong, i'm an RVD mark.
just expected him to jump back a little better than that,
but i'd give it no more than 2 weeks til he's back to normal.

[Azriel]

This is the WWE dark, do they usually have a point?

[Blitz]

LOL, Peter Gabriel theme song.

[The Greater Power]

HAHA

[Azriel]

Shelton's mama time!

[darkpower]

WHY is Peter Gabrial's song the WM theme song?

[St. Jimmy]

OMFGYES!

[Blitz]

Golddust. :|

[Xero]

LOL

[Blitz]

Golden Showers. :rofl:

[LK]

WTF? Is Goldust back full-time now or something?

[RP]

Hey cool Goldust made his annual 2 month return.

[darkpower]

This is the WWE dark, do they usually have a point?

True!

[Azriel]

It's Goldust! And its old school Goldust!!!

[Blitz]

Good googamooga?

[Xero]

He's gained weight...

[St. Jimmy]

Maria in the HHH Promo <3

[darkpower]

I guess Triple H got a shower and wet just for Maria.

[The Greater Power]

lol his guaranteed shot is gone

[Blitz]

HHH disparaging Eddie's ghost. :(

[RP]

No Hunter i'm pretty sure i saw you get eliminated by Rey Mysterio..


Chavo is the next best thing..lol

[St. Jimmy]

HHH and Chavo?!
YES!

[Azriel]

HHH vs. Chavo? Say goodnight Chavo

[darkpower]

HHH: IT'S BURYING TIME!!

[LK]

Hey WWE, here's a thought - how about we stop using Eddie's death for angles?

[Blitz]

Suprised Hunter didn't say something like "Chavo, you'll be seeing your uncle soon."

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

Shelton used to be one of the things I looked forward to on RAW, but now with his "mama", I cringe every time I see either one of them.

[Azriel]

WWE and good thoughts don't go well together LK

[St. Jimmy]

wait, i just realised, Trips' just said that he can't bury god =/
i guess i was wrong...

[Corndad]

Just gettin in guys, what have I missed? Anything?

[RP]

Everybody else uses Eddie Guerreros death to benefit them. Why shouldnt he. Its the cool thing to do now. I'm sure Big Show will come out with his arm shoved up Andre The Giants rotting anus and use him as a puppet to get himself over.

[Azriel]

Lillian looking good as usual.

[Pete]

Well this is a first, now HHH is burying dead guys pushes

[JT]

Suprised Hunter didn't say something like "Chavo, you'll be seeing your uncle soon."

I laughed at that...I'm so going to hell. :(

[RP]

wait, i just realised, Trips' just said that he can't bury god =/
i guess i was wrong...


JBL is on Smackdown tho .

[St. Jimmy]

Hey WWE, here's a thought - how about we stop using Eddie's death for angles?

WWE dosn't abide by natural law.
They will prove that you can flog a dead horse.
Until it bleeds dust.

[LK]

Everybody else uses Eddie Guerreros death to benefit them. Why shouldnt he. Its the cool thing to do now. I'm sure Big Show will come out with his arm shoved up Andre The Giants rotting anus and use him as a puppet to get himself over.
I'm not having a go at him but I'm having a go at the WWE as a whole.

[Corndad]

might have got lost in the page turnover but can someone update me on what all has happened so far?

[Azriel]

Thunder:

Vince/Shawn confrontation. Shane attacked HBK with a chair
RVD defeated Snitsky
Goldust had a promo with Shelton's mama, so looks like Shelton vs. Golddust tonight

[St. Jimmy]

i miss Kerwin. =(

[RP]

They must be hinting at a Eddie Guerrero come back.

[JT]

Yea...I seriously think this company is loosing there minds. If TNA gets at least 2-3 more big names and better writers, I think they can really become competition to WWE...judging from what I was watching for the last 2 days.

[darkpower]

You know, now I wonder why I didn't miss the Coach last night when watching the Rumble.

[Corndad]

Thanks Azriel. Rep to you my friend.

[LK]

might have got lost in the page turnover but can someone update me on what all has happened so far?
CK buried me despite the fact that I'm not feuding with him. Oh you mean Raw...

[Azriel]

Thats really bad Rectal :lol:

[St. Jimmy]

although part of me can actually see Chavo beating Trips tonight...

[JT]

Something tells me Chavo might have a chance of winning, and then we'll have another week of "Triple H vs. Eddie Gurrerro".

[RP]

Someone should go to this show and when people start chanting Eddie Eddie Eddie. Hold up a sign that says " I dont think Eddie will be appearing tonight "

[St. Jimmy]

another commercial? what the fuck?

[Blitz]

WTF another commercial?

[darkpower]

It looked like Triple H was giving birth the way they showed him heaving.

[G-wrath]

Triple H will fight anything thats in the way of gold: live man, dead man, even his own shadow.

[Corndad]

CK buried me despite the fact that I'm not feuding with him. Oh you mean Raw...

Is it sad that as soon as Undertaker came out with Kurt in the ring last night I began coming up with a promo.

[Blitz]

They must be hinting at a Eddie Guerrero come back.

Some guy runs out from the back with a sheet on and hits a frog splash on HHH.

[Azriel]

HHH going spastic :lol:

[LK]

That looked really goofy.

[Blitz]

I'm going to hell for that one. :(

[The Greater Power]

was i just hearing HHH chants on unlimited?

[ThruTheWire]

HHH chants on unlimited

[Azriel]

Is it sad that as soon as Undertaker came out with Kurt in the ring last night I began coming up with a promo.
happens to the best of us.

And did I just hear HHH chants?

[LK]

Is it sad that as soon as Undertaker came out with Kurt in the ring last night I began coming up with a promo.
As long as it acknowledges that LK has surpassed the International title, then not at all.

[darkpower]

On the road to the Royal Rumble? :lol:

[RP]

I have a sign idea. A drawing of Triple H holding the title while sitting on Eddie's grave. It could read " Still holding the man down ".

[Azriel]

*cough*Intercontinental*cough*

[Corndad]

As long as it acknowledges that LK has surpassed the International title, then not at all.

How are you passed it and have never won it lol Im still waiting for a logical promo on that one lol

[Batsu]

Is this Bizarro King?

[LK]

*coughthatsTNAcough*

[Azriel]

The hell is Coach smoking? :lol:

[darkpower]

Man, the fans are really getting on HHH for the Eddie taunt he's doing.

[St. Jimmy]

i'm this close to muting my TV.
this Eddie shit is offically on my nerves.

[LK]

How are you passed it and have never won it lol Im still waiting for a logical promo on that one lol
Hey keep that attitude up and when I get the booker spot, you're push will be going to hell! :mad: ;)

[Blitz]

'The hell?

[Azriel]

Ok, lets wrap this thing up.

[St. Jimmy]

oooh.

[LK]

The Push-Killer

[The Greater Power]

Good match seeing as how we knew the outcome

[St. Jimmy]

Nice Pedagree.

[Corndad]

Hey keep that attitude up and when I get the booker spot, you're push will be going to hell! :mad: ;)

I mean... um... Why aren't you GCW world champ yet? lol ;)

[G-wrath]

Crash. Burn. Buried.

I think if Vince set up Triple H vs. God, he would make Trips win.

[Azriel]

Sorry Chavo, but you've just fell victim to the glass ceiling

[Blitz]

Carlito :love:

[darkpower]

Do we HAVE to see Chris Masters oil up?

[The Greater Power]

LOL.....and I pinned you...accidently...

[St. Jimmy]

lmao. Carlito <3

[Corndad]

pinned you accidentally LOL

[G-wrath]

lol Master's doesn't baste his back.

[Blitz]

Damn.

[darkpower]

DAMN, that was a hard slap.

[LK]

That's not cool!

[Azriel]

That was some slap.

[St. Jimmy]

bitch slapped by an oily bitch =/

[LK]

Look at that hair!

[darkpower]

bitch slapped by an oily bitch =/

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Azriel]

This should be entertaining

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

Carlito is awesome.

[darkpower]

That Snickers commercial cracked me up.

[Azriel]

OMG, A Chris Masters entrance not shown on RAW!!! Blasphemy :eek:

[The Greater Power]

has anyone here ever tried Master's entrance before, or at least tried it along with him on TV?

[darkpower]

has anyone here ever tried Master's entrance before, or at least tried it along with him on TV?

I tried, but I got burned by the pyros.

[Azriel]

Why? :lol:

[DaVe]

LMAO. I gotta admit... I have once.:$

[ThruTheWire]

That slap had to seriously hurt.

[Azriel]

Here come the Twin Terrors

[Blitz]

has anyone here ever tried Master's entrance before, or at least tried it along with him on TV?

I've tried, but I can't seem to suck that much.

[St. Jimmy]

i'm sure this will come up later, but does anyone think Carlito can carry Masters to a good match?

[Azriel]

We can only hope Jimmy

[darkpower]

i'm sure this will come up later, but does anyone think Carlito can carry Masters to a good match?

Seeing as how Chris has been improving somewhat, maybe.

[LK]

Carlito can do anything.

[Azriel]

He's cool like that.

[ThruTheWire]

lol sideshow bob chant

[darkpower]

I LOVE that backbreaker Carlito did.

[LK]

That has to be the best backbreaker ever.

[Azriel]

Sideshow Bob? :lol: Love it.

[Blitz]

Awful punch.

[darkpower]

OUCH!! Holy gut-punch HIT!!

[Blitz]

Great. Here comes another 6 months without a title defense.

[Azriel]

Show is scary strong, and that count was a bit too fast. Take your damn time :lol:

[St. Jimmy]

well that's their Tag defense quota for the next 3-1/2 months.

[darkpower]

Show is scary strong, and that count was a bit too fast. Take your damn time :lol:

A BIT too fast?!

[LK]

Decent match

[Azriel]

Mickie's doing This Is Your Life for Trish? Probably wont be as successful as the Rock one

[St. Jimmy]

i hope to god the night after mania,
when Trips' wins the belt,
he takes a sledgehammer,
and smashes that stupid fucking spinner belt.

[ThruTheWire]

rvd on unlimited!

[Blitz]

RVD after Carlito! Nice.

[The Greater Power]

RVD CARLITO WRESTLEMANIA

....take that to the banki

[Corndad]

there should be your IC TITLE match at Mania Carlito vs RVD.

[darkpower]

RVD is chasing Carlito!!

[LK]

RVD chases Carlito away

[Azriel]

A BIT too fast?!
Okay, it was a blink and you miss it count :lol:

Ooh, RVD/Carlito setup on Unlimited

[darkpower]

Damn, how far and high did Carlito FLY off those steps?

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

Hahaha, I just remembered that Flair is the IC champ. What a reign, Jesus.

[St. Jimmy]

WTF?! CONTINUNITY?!
woah...

[LK]

there should be your IC TITLE match at Mania Carlito vs RVD.
Balls to that - read the user title. Cena vs Carlito is where the money is at.

[darkpower]

Okay, it was a blink and you miss it count :lol:

Ooh, RVD/Carlito setup on Unlimited

Count to TEN and no one will get up from that they way it's been sold.

[Azriel]

Maybe next Mania LK

[Blitz]

Loving the new (old) RVD.

[Blitz]

LOL dime store hookers.

[St. Jimmy]

is todd tall, or mickie short?

[darkpower]

Are we gonna get lesbo sex out of this Mickie/Trish thing? :shifty:

[LK]

Damn did it only last three weeks? Ah well, I guess it was still too long.

[Azriel]

Sadly no dark, although that would be sweet

[The Greater Power]

Watching this RR 06 stills is like watching the stream last night (those of you from the chat will get this).

[Blitz]

Are we gonna get lesbo sex out of this Mickie/Trish thing?

Think of the ratings for that Live Sex Celebration.

[darkpower]

Is it me or has King been botching doing color ALOT tonight?

[darkpower]

MARIA ON WWE.COM UNLIMITED!! :drool:

[St. Jimmy]

Trish heel turn anytime soon would be logical.
Let's atleast turn one fucking champ heel at the right time =/

[Azriel]

Maria looking hot tonight

[LK]

Maybe next Mania LK
Well if that's the case, then a ladder or cage match with RVD wouldn't too bad, I guess.

[The Greater Power]

I like Maria's ass

[Blitz]

LOL, guy with the kid popping for the girls kissing.

[Azriel]

The hell? :lol:

[darkpower]

Mama Benjamin on a wheelchair :rofl:

[Blitz]

:rofl: Shelton's mama with the oxygen.

[darkpower]

oh, and LMAO @ the "Shelton, is that Martin Lawrence" sign and the placement and timing of them showing it.

[St. Jimmy]

king making Goldust gay jokes. there's a flashback.

[LK]

I wonder if Goldust still remembers... :shifty:

[Azriel]

Good to see Dust back. Hopefully he'll be back long time

[darkpower]

When is mama gonna have a chance for an in-ring promo? What do you think?

[Azriel]

Certainly got rid of his stutter

[Blitz]

Disturbing.

[The Greater Power]

Shelton is probably laughing at that sign
