Official Raw Thread (2/25/08): The Hornswoggle Memorial Show

Preview:And then there were three
February 25, 2008

John Cena now has an opportunity to headline WrestleMania in the WWE Title Match, but now he must worry about two men – Triple H and WWE Champion Randy Orton. And Triple H made a statement when he delivered a thunderous Pedigree to both men after he officiated their match last week. What lengths will these Superstars go to mark their territory and gain momentum going into WrestleMania XXIV?

With a bandaged nose and a black eye, Big Show made his first appearance on Raw in more than a year. The 7-footer was there to apologize for his behavior the night before at No Way Out, when he and Floyd Mayweather traded blows. After “apologizing” to the WBC welterweight champion, Big Show then taunted Mayweather into accepting his challenge for a match. The type of match was unspecified, but what type of bout might we expect from these two warriors?

In other Raw action, Mr. McMahon looked on callously as his son, Hornswoggle, suffered a ruthless beating by JBL and lie unconscious in the middle of the ring. As the night began, the little guy had expected to battle his father in a Steel Cage Match. There shown, however, a sliver of light when Hornswoggle’s protector, Finlay, tried to rescue him. But JBL turned out the lights when he attacked the Irishman and handcuffed him to the ring ropes. He then began to pummel Hornswoggle so severely that even Mr. McMahon was taken aback.

What is Hornswoggle’s condition? And what are JBL and the Chairman’s reactions and explanations for the brutal attack? And what are Finlay’s thoughts?

Finally, last Monday, Maria defeated Women's Champion Beth Phoenix in a non-title match to earn a photo shoot in Playboy Magazine. Following the victory, the elated Diva immediately flew to Los Angeles for the sexy spread, which our fans can get an exclusive look at, this coming week on Raw. What will this steamy glimpse bring to Monday night? Don't miss out.

Find out the answers to these questions and more by tuning in to Raw when it emanates live from Phoenix at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

[The Optimist]

We wish Mr. Bastard the best in all future endeavors.

[Volchok]

RIP Horny

[Corndad]

lll be curious after watching that Press Conference Today if they dont just keep Mayweather as the Heel.

[Testicle]

I wonder if Hardy will even be given a match tonight. Maybe another classic with Snitsky, thats what the fans want. :roll:

[The Optimist]

Mayweather works as a heel about as well as Rey Mysterio.

[BigDaddyCool]

brb

[KingofOldSchool]

PHOTO OP!

[Volchok]

Another action packed Raw, I can hardly contain myself...

[KingofOldSchool]

Mayweather works as a heel about as well as Rey Mysterio.

Yeah but I reckon to say that most of the fans really care that much about Mayweather and it would be easier to book him as a pseudo-heel. Now if Rey didn't get injured, it would have been easier for them to get Mayweather over as a face.

[KingofOldSchool]

Edge should come out and do a five second pose during the Photo-Op.

[BigDaddyCool]

Starting off with Triple Hatch.

[Splaya]

LOL

I love it when Regal slaughters wrestler's names

[Volchok]

Lol whyy?

[Volchok]

Lol nice

[Volchok]

Lol Orton is the third wheel in this match.

[Corndad]

Was wondering if Orton was ever gonna talk lol

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL @ the fans response when Triple H mentioned that a lot of people loved HHH pedigreeing Cena.

[RGWhat316]

LOL, alot did appreciate.

[Volchok]

Orton doesn't seem to fit in.

[The Optimist]

This was boring two years ago, it's still boring now.

[Splaya]

WHAT A SICK RKO TO HHH

[Volchok]

Orton has no chance of winning at Mania.

[BigDaddyCool]

Fuck, Cena is winning.

[RGWhat316]

Alright, double RKO. I'll take it.

[Innovator]

Wow Orton sucks on the mic compared to the other two

[KingofOldSchool]

"Is this what we're going to be seeing at the Citrus Bowl at Wrestlemania 24?"

Tomko: No.

[Innovator]

BTW, just got CPR & AED certified in 10 minutes

[Volchok]

Is there a chance that Cena won't win at WM?

[JT]

God Orton is terrible...and people think Kennedy is bad on the mic these days.

[KingofOldSchool]

Fuck, Cena is winning.

Really?

Whatever caused you to come to that far fetched idea?

[NeanderCarl]

What an opening segment!! I now want to see this main event of WrestleMania neither more nor less than before.

Evening all.

[The Optimist]

Yeah but I reckon to say that most of the fans really care that much about Mayweather and it would be easier to book him as a pseudo-heel. Now if Rey didn't get injured, it would have been easier for them to get Mayweather over as a face.
Honestly, with Big Show being a dick and Mayweather looking about two feet tall in comparison. I sympathize heavily with Mayweather, despite him being the best boxer in the world. Marks (and smarks) can get drawn in by something as easy as visual signals.

[Innovator]

Edge should come out and do a five second pose during the Photo-Op.
I miss the moment for the people with the benefit of flash photography

[Azriel]

off to a fairly good start

[Testicle]

God Orton is terrible...and people think he-who-cant-be-named was bad on the mic.

[Innovator]

off to a paint by numbers start

[Azriel]

It would certainly makes things interesting if they made this more a three way dance

[NeanderCarl]

Did they do away with the Chilli Peppers as the WrestleMania theme? Now we get yet another by-the-numbers rock song. Booo.

[Corndad]

Any Money in the Bank qualifiers tonight?

[Crossrine]

Can Orton ever make eye contact without looking through someone?

[Innovator]

Wow Kennedy just owned Orton promo wise

[Splaya]

Ya know, when it comes to the MITB match, I could see Jeff saying before the match that he takes every chance in the book for the fans and then have the choice of grabbing the briefcase or doing a swanton onto whoever and then he takes the briefcase. You could in a sense turn him heel after that.

[RGWhat316]

Her damn pic been leaked yet?

[Azriel]

Ooh Maria :drool:

Poor Carlito :(

[KingofOldSchool]

Santino's gone Travis Bickle.

[Corndad]

Is it just me or has Santino always had that mohawk?? lol

[Innovator]

I love how Carlito just stands back and stares at Maria's ass

[Splaya]

Here comes CAWdy

[The Optimist]

Maria is a hot tamale. Cody Rhodes is not.

[Innovator]

CAWdy!

[Azriel]

Probably not til next week RG

[KingofOldSchool]

Wow Kennedy just owned Orton promo wise

Hornswoggle could own Orton promo wise.

[Innovator]

CAWdy thinks santino is a hot tamale

[Innovator]

Hornswoggle could own Orton promo wise.
Sid could own Orton promo wise

[The Optimist]

Is it just me or has Santino always had that mohawk?? lol
He has.

[Innovator]

Unique takedown? It's called an STO

[RGWhat316]

Did they do away with the Chilli Peppers as the WrestleMania theme? Now we get yet another by-the-numbers rock song. Booo.

I actually hope so. C'mon a song called "Snow" as the theme for an event in Florida?

[The Optimist]

CAWdy thinks santino is a hot tamale
I honestly don't think that Holly would continue to team with Cawdy if he knew he was gay. Holly's old and he's from the south, he just seems like that kind of guy.

Wether he is gay or not.

[Marc the Smark]

Oh, King! STFU! Just get up and go talk to her!

[Innovator]

:lol: King

[NeanderCarl]

You seen CAWdy's newest publicity shots?

http://caws.ws/forum/uploads/photo-41568.jpg

[RGWhat316]

Lawler yelling "Maria" is worse than Melina's mid match screams.

[The Optimist]

I actually hope so. C'mon a song called "Snow" as the theme for an event in Florida?
But RHCP rules, generic rock band #62 does not rule.

[NeanderCarl]

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[Innovator]

Here comes the resurrection of the King/Santino feud

[KingofOldSchool]

Yay Team Jobcore won!

[Azriel]

I really hope Maria's shoot lives up to the hype

[The Optimist]

I hope Maria gets sick of Santino and cheats with Carlito.

While drinking a mohito.

[NeanderCarl]

I actually hope so. C'mon a song called "Snow" as the theme for an event in Florida?

But it sounded different!

I like the way WrestleMania usually has a slightly different theme, either an original recording or a song you wouldn't expect such as "Big Time" by Peter Gabriel a couple years ago.

It helps distinguish WrestleMania from the pack. I thought Snow did that well. Whatever this new one is, it wouldn't be out of place as the official theme tune to a Backlash or Armageddon.

[Splaya]

That would be a sweet storyline

[Corndad]

Damn those were some stiff shots

[The Optimist]

He just seems like a nice, fun guy. Compared to Big Show, who looks like a huge asshole.

[NeanderCarl]

Big Show has done well to lose weight, but how can he, with a straight face, claim to be in the best shape of his life? He's claiming to be in better shape than when he first got in the business. Kudos to him for losing 100lbs+ but he's still a fat bastard, hardly the agile and svelte athlete he was in WCW in 1995.

[Corndad]

He was such a dick at that today. How can he not be the freakin Heel.

[The Optimist]

Did Triple H have the beard at Wrestlemania 22?

[The Optimist]

Big Show has done well to lose weight, but how can he, with a straight face, claim to be in the best shape of his life? He's claiming to be in better shape than when he first got in the business. Kudos to him for losing 100lbs+ but he's still a fat bastard, hardly the agile and svelte athlete he was in WCW in 1995.
It's called lieing.

[Volchok]

woah... nice suit.

[Marc the Smark]

why is Regal dressed like Taker?

[Corndad]

Jerichos probably in MITB

[NeanderCarl]

Didn't see that main event coming. :roll:

:lol: Cockatoo.

[KingofOldSchool]

WHO SAW THAT ONE COMING?!!??!

[RGWhat316]

But it sounded different!

I like the way WrestleMania usually has a slightly different theme, either an original recording or a song you wouldn't expect such as "Big Time" by Peter Gabriel a couple years ago.

It helps distinguish WrestleMania from the pack. I thought Snow did that well. Whatever this new one is, it wouldn't be out of place as the official theme tune to a Backlash or Armageddon.

I actually don't mind the song itself or the RHCP. It just seems odd that a song called "Snow" would be the theme song at a place that doesn't get any of it.

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL

[Splaya]

LOL at Regal

"HELLO SUNSHINE"

While looking at Jericho

[RGWhat316]

Hey Jericho is back, and MITB sounds alright.

[The Optimist]

Wow. A tag team main event with Kennedy closing in on the main event. How underwhelming.

Lolololol @ Regal and Jericho

[Corndad]

woah didn't see Jericho vs Hardy comin.

[Azriel]

Jericho vs. Hardy? Sweet

[Splaya]

Am I the only one that thinks when Regal said someone special, my thoughts were Eugene?

[Innovator]

jericho vs. jeff

thanks

[NeanderCarl]

Love the verbal jousts between Regal and Jericho but please don't let it ever spill over into the ring again. Spare us.

[KingofOldSchool]

Are they trying to turn Jericho heel?

[Azriel]

I thought he might have been facing Umaga.

[KingofOldSchool]

Am I the only one that thinks when Regal said someone special, my thoughts were Eugene?

I was thinking Umanga or the undefeated Snitsky.

[The Optimist]

Are they trying to turn Jericho heel?
What makes you think that?

[NeanderCarl]

I actually don't mind the song itself or the RHCP. It just seems odd that a song called "Snow" would be the theme song at a place that doesn't get any of it.

You say that now, but WrestleMania + open air venue + snow = amazing.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Mayweather getting 20 million to wrestle at WrestleMania lol

[JT]

Am I the only one that thinks when Regal said someone special, my thoughts were Eugene?

no, you weren't alone.

[Splaya]

The Undefeated Snitsky?

KooS are you cracking jokes again?

[Azriel]

Show better not job to Floyd. i'll be pissed.

[The Optimist]

Yeah, they should make every qualifying match a match with Snitsky.

[Volchok]

Jeff sans neon paint is okay by me.

[NeanderCarl]

Mayweather getting 20 million to wrestle at WrestleMania lol

There goes Hogan getting a match then :lol:

[JT]

Jeff seems out of it tonight.

[The Optimist]

Gosh. The midcard on Raw has been so doinked. I would say let Carlito and Santino duke it out for the title, but they're apparently the number one contender to the tag team champs. . . what other midcarders do they have?

[RGWhat316]

Like HBK having to qualify for the Rumble, the guy who came up with MITB has to qualify to be in the match.

[The Optimist]

Jericho: weird tights are weird.

[KingofOldSchool]

The Undefeated Snitsky?

KooS are you cracking jokes again?

Jokes?

I'm hurt. :'(

[JT]

Wonder if Jericho loses and turns heel.

[The Optimist]

Like HBK having to qualify for the Rumble, the guy who came up with MITB has to qualify to be in the match.
A few years ago Carlito convinced management to bring MITB back and then lost his qualifier to Ric Flair. It's a goofy philosophy. At least it's pretty obvious that Jericho is going to win this.

[Splaya]

HOLY SHIT A VERTICAL SUPLEX

[JT]

A few years ago Carlito convinced management to bring MITB back and then lost his qualifier to Ric Flair. It's a goofy philosophy. At least it's pretty obvious that Jericho is going to win this.

It's not TOO obvious actually.

[Innovator]

if this match gets time, it has to be awesome

[Azriel]

Anything can happen. We shall have to wait and see.

[NeanderCarl]

Wasn't it Jericho who (kayfabe and IRL) came up with the MITB anyway?

[Innovator]

This is a long fucking break for an awesome matchup

[KingofOldSchool]

Anything can happen. We shall have to wait and see.

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN HERE...IN THE WORLD WRESTLING...ENTERTAINMENT!

[KingofOldSchool]

This is a long fucking break for an awesome matchup

Hunter is working the production truck.

[Innovator]

TNA takes WWE stars and turns them into ordinary guys in a couple weeks

How long did it take Jericho to turn into another guy?

[NeanderCarl]

Jeff seems out of it tonight.

Seems to me as though he is disheartened or rundown, and has been ever since the Rumble. I get the feeling his morale is low having not gone over Orton.

[Splaya]

JERICHO DOING HEEL STUFF :love:

[Innovator]

Hunter is working the production truck.
a commercial break as long as his nose

[Corndad]

Anyone else notice last few weeks Hardy hasn't been the same guy he was when getting the uber-push round Rumble/Pre No Way Out?

[KingofOldSchool]

TNA takes WWE stars and turns them into ordinary guys in a couple weeks

How long did it take Jericho to turn into another guy?

Day 1?

[Splaya]

Now see, this is what happens when you go face vs face. The fans don't know who to cheer

[Innovator]

Seems to me as though he is disheartened or rundown, and has been ever since the Rumble. I get the feeling his morale is low having not gone over Orton.
Think about it, Jeff has nothing to prove with this match, so even without thinking it makes sense for his character

[KingofOldSchool]

Seems to me as though he is disheartened or rundown, and has been ever since the Rumble. I get the feeling his morale is low having not gone over Orton.

He probably realizes he just past the peak of his career.

[Innovator]

Day 1?
Haircut and vest?

[KingofOldSchool]

KYJ!
KYJ!
KYJ!
KYJ!

[NeanderCarl]

I don't see the point in a qualifying match between two guys, one of whom has already qualified. If Hardy wanted to be nice to Jericho, as their both faces, why wouldn't he simply take a friendly dive?

[KingofOldSchool]

Haircut and vest?

"Welcome to the WWE"

[Innovator]

CMON, lionsault should get 3

it beat HHH

[The Optimist]

I'd mark out hard if he started pulling his hair out.

[Splaya]

what a match.

[Innovator]

NICE finishing sequence

[KingofOldSchool]

JERK-O WINS!

[Splaya]

SICK WAY TO END THE MATCH

[Corndad]

MITB is shaping up to be pretty damn sweet.

[RGWhat316]

Great match.

[KingofOldSchool]

I don't see the point in a qualifying match between two guys, one of whom has already qualified. If Hardy wanted to be nice to Jericho, as their both faces, why wouldn't he simply take a friendly dive?

Jeff is the RAINBOW HAIRED WARRIOR...he never backs down!

[Innovator]

Chris Jericho vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Senior Kennedy

[Innovator]

so far

[KingofOldSchool]

Hornswoggle...DEVASTATED!

[Johnny Vegas]

LOLOL "Hornswoggle Devastated" wtf

[KingofOldSchool]

If it's on WWE.com, then it MUST be true!

[JT]

Jeff is the RAINBOW HAIRED WARRIOR...he never backs down!

No, now he's the LEGEND THRILLER!!!

:roll:

[Azriel]

Nice prelude to MITB. I love it.

[The Optimist]

I don't see the point in a qualifying match between two guys, one of whom has already qualified. If Hardy wanted to be nice to Jericho, as their both faces, why wouldn't he simply take a friendly dive?
Hardy didn't want to be nice to Jericho. Faces don't have to be goody-twoshoes.

[Corndad]

Chris Jericho vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Senior Kennedy

Probably add Punk/MVP 2 others Kane? and we got ourselves maybe the best MITB yet.

[Azriel]

Vince apologizing? Has Hell frozen over?

[KingofOldSchool]

Chris Jericho vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Senior Kennedy vs. CM Punk vs. John Morrison vs. Umaga vs. Big Daddy V

[Innovator]

Gotta have Vince in the 10 o clock spot

[RGWhat316]

So Kofi might face a non jobber then.

[The Optimist]

Sweet. Reprisal.

[Innovator]

I would pay 55 to see V try to climb a ladder

[NeanderCarl]

Hornswoggle...DEVASTATED!

Why? Did somebody just reveal to him that, far from being a small child, he's really in his 20s?

[Azriel]

is Vince ever getting a new theme?

[KingofOldSchool]

Probably add Punk/MVP 2 others Kane? and we got ourselves maybe the best MITB yet.

MVP vs Matt Hardy

[RGWhat316]

LOL, a sign that said "Mr McMan is stupid"

[KingofOldSchool]

I would pay 55 to see V try to climb a ladder

BDV will become Kirby and just open his mouth and inhale the briefcase.

[RGWhat316]

is Vince ever getting a new theme?

I think he should use the Dope theme from Forceable Entry.

[Innovator]

Vince, you have enough hair now, stop with the goofy comeover

[ClockShot]

Good evening folks.

Miss anything worth a damn?

[Innovator]

BDV will become Kirby and just open his mouth and inhale the briefcase.
Puffs up his cheeks and flies

[KingofOldSchool]

"Mr. McMahon is stupid"

What a GENIUS sign!

[Innovator]

Thank god JBL has a shirt on

[Corndad]

MVP vs Matt Hardy

I've been missing Smackdown is Matt even back?

[Azriel]

so, lemme guess, JBL vs. Finlay at Mania with Vince as referee?

[Innovator]

Look at that power shirt

[NeanderCarl]

MVP vs Matt Hardy

You can kiss that feud goodbye by the looks of it.

At the very least, it appears to be on the backburner until after WrestleMania.

Best we can hope for now is for both to be in the MITB and continue the feud. I think it's just been too long, fickle ole WWE have forgotten about it, plus they transferred MVP's heat over to Orton when he got credit for Matt still being out of action.

[KingofOldSchool]

Puffs up his cheeks and flies

He'll inhale CM Punk and will have piercings and long hair.

He'll inhale Shelton Benjamin and will have blonde hair and botch every 10 moves.

He'll inhale Jeff Hardy and will grow purple hair and do SWANTONS and WHISPER IN THE WINDS.

[NeanderCarl]

Here we go...

[Corndad]

Woah.

[KingofOldSchool]

UH OH

[Innovator]

WHAT A BOMBSHELL!

and listen to the cricket chirps

[Splaya]

LOL

HORNY IS NOT UR SON

[RGWhat316]

Oh are they really bringing this back?

[Corndad]

Didn't they do Dna tests and stuff?

[KingofOldSchool]

I've been missing Smackdown is Matt even back?

He will be back as early as tomorrow night.

[Azriel]

Woah, twist.

[Splaya]

LOL

WWE writing would have JBL say that Shane is Vince's son

[ClockShot]

Oh gee. Whatever gave it away? :roll:

[KingofOldSchool]

Didn't they do Dna tests and stuff?

Maury Povich wasn't available.

[Innovator]

Look at that zit on JBL

[Splaya]

LOL

Finlay knew the entire time.

[Innovator]

Ok so JBL vs. Finlay at Mania, good be a decent brawl

[The Optimist]

So . . . Finlay set this up so Hornswaggle could . . .

What?

[Azriel]

Certainly gives more meaning to the "little bastard" moniker

[The Optimist]

Trips, throw him into a locker.

[NeanderCarl]

Did... did they just blow off 5 months of storyline development in a 2 minute interview?

[KingofOldSchool]

Pssh Cena doesn't know the meaning of the word "lose"

Then again there aren't a lot of words Cena knows the meaning of.

[NeanderCarl]

Pssh Cena doesn't know the meaning of the word "lose"

Then again there aren't a lot of words Cena knows the meaning of.

By the way, Bobby Heenan called. He wants his copy of "The Ray Combs Joke Book" back.

[Johnny Vegas]

lol you guys hate the wwe writers with a passion

[Corndad]

Any ideas for Hall of Fame Inductee tonight?

Sweet. 3k. Nice.

[NeanderCarl]

Any ideas for Hall of Fame Inductee tonight?

Rick Martel

[The Optimist]

Lol. Once again go to Wrestlemania. Hasn't Cena won at like three Wresltlemanias?

[Volchok]

Orton looked like a tool in that WM package.

[KingofOldSchool]

By the way, Bobby Heenan called. He wants his copy of "The Ray Combs Joke Book" back.

I obtained this copy legally.


...I urned it.

[Volchok]

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMAGA

[Azriel]

Here comes Jamalga

[NeanderCarl]

What happened to Umaga's Yokozuna tights?

[ClockShot]

Well well. Look who's back.

[Splaya]

D H Smith, welcome back to RAW

Say Hi to Umaga

[Innovator]

D.H. Smith, welcome back, get ready for a 3 second nap

[KingofOldSchool]

lol DH Smith is gonna get fucked up.

[Azriel]

time to do the JOB kid

[NeanderCarl]

Fuck me... it's D.H. Smith.

I thought he was on the Future Endeavors tour.

[RGWhat316]

Last year Umaga was in Battle of the Billionaires. Now I think we can call this match Battle of the signature pharmacy list.

[Splaya]

Actually say hello to lowcard hell.

[Innovator]

Damn Umaga flew

[KingofOldSchool]

D.H. Smith, welcome back, get ready for a 3 second nap

Wait a minute...did you just say...THREE MIN...oh you said seconds.

Shit.

[NeanderCarl]

Lol. Once again go to Wrestlemania. Hasn't Cena won at like three Wresltlemanias?

Pretty sure he's 4-0 at WM.

[Corndad]

Wow a D.H. Smith Sighting.

[Azriel]

He's dead

[Innovator]

WWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLL ITS THE JOB SQUAD

[Azriel]

So what is the point of these matches really? Never understand it.

[NeanderCarl]

Burchill... I thought that was Chris Harris for a second.

[ClockShot]

Capt. Burchill!

[The Optimist]

Umaga vs. Kane

[Splaya]

Samoan Bulldozer Umanga

[NeanderCarl]

So... does that mean Umaga vs Batista at WrestleMania then?

[Innovator]

Smackdown vs. RAW match at Mania

If he's bringing Umanga, it'll be Bats

[Corndad]

Was wondering what they were gonna do with Umanga at Mania

[Innovator]

....did she call Paul the Ripper?...awesome

[KingofOldSchool]

Actually say hello to lthe unemployment line.

[Corndad]

They put Kofi over in the promo earlier and put him in that match? The hell?

[KingofOldSchool]

Awww I was hoping for a Santino/Kelly Kelly debate.

[Azriel]

Is Burchhill pimping out his sister? :lol:

[The Optimist]

I'm glad that they're pulling off this sister-fucking thing with some grace.

[HTrain90]

This show needs some Shawn Michaels. Now.

[Johnny Vegas]

can someone post a pic of when McMahon was wearing that du-rag

[KingofOldSchool]

Umaga vs. Kane

I was thinking that for a split second and then I realized Batista made more sense at this point.

[NeanderCarl]

You know what, I just decided I'm miffed.

In WWE, you have England represented by Regal, Burchill, Katie and, to an extent, DH Smith.

You have Scotland represented by McIntyre, the McAllisters and recurring appearances by Piper.

You have Ireland represented by Finlay and Hornswoggle. Hell, even Hulk Hogan was originally an Irish gimmick.

So where the fuck is the Welsh representative??

I'd like to publically declare an interest in offering my services.

[Azriel]

So, Maria left Punk for Santino? She must not be the sharpest tool in the shed.

[Zen v.W.o.]

Good work wwe..take a guy with greater lineage than most wrestlers could ever dream of, and have him job out to a big fat sack of crap that nobody really cares about, because he's hit the ceiling..Umaga cant go any further.

[RGWhat316]

With that match being so short, I better get a Mickie sighting tonight.

[Azriel]

Ooh, so who's going to be next? Arn?

[Innovator]

Time to set the stage for Flair vs. Shawn

[Corndad]

Worst Woo ever.

[The Optimist]

Guh. Lance Cade doing some sort of Ultimate Job against HBK.

[NeanderCarl]

I don't know why, but when I saw Cade in the ring then, I called HBK as his opponent.

[RGWhat316]

HBK v HBCade

[Azriel]

This show needs some Shawn Michaels. Now.

Your wish has been granted. Although seems kinda wasted.

[ClockShot]

Michaels vs. Cade?

Okay.......

[Corndad]

I would say Arns gotta go in this year too with Flair.

[KingofOldSchool]

The Redneck Jobbing Crew!

[Splaya]

Shawn beats Lance Cade. The Hicks beat up the Texan after the match. The Carolinaian comes down and saves the Texan. The Texan than Superkicks the Carolinaian.

Did I miss anything for how this works out?

[HTrain90]

Didn't Cade go to HBK's wrestling school? Or am I thinking of the wrong person?

[Innovator]

I saw no Horsemen this year, cause they'd all get overshadowed

They all deserve the spotlight
