Preview:An End to the Mayhem?




When Raw (http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/) convenes in Washington, D.C. on Monday night, Shane McMahon is scheduled to appear. In recent weeks, Shane and his sister, Executive Vice President Stephanie McMahon have implored the WWE Universe to maintain composure on the brand, which has recently been overrun with civil unrest. They've also requested that our fans allow their injured father, WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/mrmcmahon/), the privacy he desires. Could Shane be coming to Raw to name a new General Manager?

Last Monday night, World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/cmpunk/) was battling Batista (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/batista/) in a title match when all hell broke loose. The aftermath of the no-contest match saw John Cena (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/johncena/) rush the ring to tangle with longtime foe JBL (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/jbl/), who had charged the ring moments earlier. During his tussle with JBL, Cena inadvertently leveled Batista with a right arm.

Accident or not, the already frustrated Animal was fit to be tied. He came up swinging and the two powerhouses traded blows to end the broadcast. The confrontation between Cena and Batista begs the question, how will the next meeting go between these two?

In no less disturbing Raw action, Santino Marella (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/santinomarella/) and Beth Phoenix (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/bethphoenix/) shared what can best be described as the weirdest love/hate moment Raw has seen in ages.

As The Glamazon looked on from ringside, Marella lost a match to returning Superstar D-Lo Brown. After the match, Phoenix stepped into the ring and scuffled with the spicy Italian. As the two traded waist-lock holds, they suddenly, inexplicably … kissed.

Just as quickly, they pulled back, seemingly afraid of any amorous feelings their lip lock may have evoked. Hmmm. What might have sparked these feelings of amore? And how might a relationship between these two develop, if at all?

Finally, announcers Michael Cole (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/michaelcole/) and Jerry “The King” Lawler touched on rumors last Monday that, in the absence of a General Manager, Shane and Stephanie McMahon are searching for a new Raw GM. Will our fans soon see a new face as Raw GM? If so, who will take the reins?

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

[Londoner]

[Juan]

Hopefully Shane makes himself the new GM.

[Londoner]

[Volare]

Regal's being reinstated as GM.

[Volare]

[XL]

[Londoner]

Fuck fuck fuck, forgot thunderstorms were gonna happen here around this time, best not lose the signal.

[KingofOldSchool]

*lights go out*

*Regal appears*

Tonight I'm going to make a match between Triple Haitch and Umanga.

*Shane whispers something in Regal's ear*

Regal: Really? I missed a bloody lot.

[Innovator]

It's been a month

AND CM PUNK IS STILL THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT FUCKING CHAMPION

[Londoner]

I like the way they're booking cm punks title reign, its a bit different to how its normally done so atleast they're being creative.

[Destor]

EVENING

[Volare]

Anyone wanna piss people off in a chat room? I'm drinking so I'd figure it would be funny.

[Corndad]

I'm curious to where they lead the Jericho/HBK fued now.

[Destor]

I like the way they're booking cm punks title reign, its a bit different to how its normally done so atleast they're being creative....you're positive about the oddest things

[Londoner]

...you're positive about the oddest things

I'm more positive than you think tbh. :yes:

[Volare]

lol

[ClockShot]

This is a bad night as it is.

[Volare]

Whys that?

[Innovator]

Cause Moose got lit up

[Volare]

DAMN!

[ClockShot]

Cause Moose got lit up

Only thing that can turn :( into :| is the Angels winning.

[Linkbowler]

Potential for entertainment tonight, gentlemen.

[ClockShot]

Jericho's final Highlight Reel...........Interesting.

And since they're in D.C., I'll enter my cheat code of Up, down, left, right, right, Triangle, Square as today's Infinite Titles Shots cheat.

[XL]

Anyone wanna piss people off in a chat room? I'm drinking so I'd figure it would be funny.
Is this chatroom attached to a live feed?

[Innovator]

and the blue jays beating hte rays

[NeanderCarl]

Eeeeeeeeeevenin', all!

[NeanderCarl]

So I take it, no Trips tonight or at Satur.... shit, he's SmackDown now, isn't he?? Hah forgot.

Still, he won't be at SNME then.

[ClockShot]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! GO ANGELS!

[NeanderCarl]

Welcome to RAW IS PG.

[NeanderCarl]

WWE RAW... PG... what a paradox.

[Innovator]

MOVE TO THE MUSIC

i mean

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA

[ClockShot]

Evening gentlemen.

[Londoner]

Don't think the GM will be announced until SNME.

[FourFifty]

Stand up and say What's Up!

[Volare]

I don't give a damn bout Bats....I want Shane O'Mac!!

[Corndad]

They gotta be workin towards the triple threat at Slam

[FourFifty]

Goddamn, Dancin' Dave can't take a choke slam.

[NeanderCarl]

So Boretista is graduating from a three way feud with Jericho and Michaels, to a four way feud with Kane, Punk and Cena?

Can't wait for WrestleMania's main event of Batista vs Raw.

[Volare]

Fatal four way I'm thinking....gotta add JBL to it too, if not him than Cena.

[KingofOldSchool]

"Come on Dave, do you want the match or not?"

That was awesome.

[KingofOldSchool]

Don't think the GM will be announced until SNME.

Nope, nothing was announced.

[FourFifty]

I don't give a damn bout Bats....I want Regal!!
Fixed

[Londoner]

Just hope the signal holds out for 2 more hours despite it pissing down with rain, going fine atm.

[Splaya]

We do not have any cards so I am joining you gentleman for a rare monday night

[Splaya]

Big RAW tonight?

[KingofOldSchool]

We're in Batista's hometown!

[Splaya]

Starting with Cena eh

[Volare]

CTC in the house.

[Innovator]

Cenner is here

[Linkbowler]

So there's supposed to be a GM announcement, and we start off with Cena.

Joy.

[KingofOldSchool]

What a crappy new jersey.

[Corndad]

Oh wow. He's not wearing that stupid Video game shirt tonight.

[Londoner]

Looks like they're kind of bringing the old Cena back.

[PapaGeorgio]

Welcome to RAW IS PG.

Yes I am Raw today. Thanks for noticing.

[ClockShot]

Think the Golden Eagles gave permission to use that logo?

[Splaya]

I've said it before and I will say it again. When Cena just walks down to the ring, no hand signals just stone face walks down to the ring, I'm such a bigger fan

[FourFifty]

I would like Cena more if he came out to Basic Thugnomics, or Cop Killa.

[KingofOldSchool]

"I Believe in Shane"

[Volare]

Sportin the McDonald's colors....gotta be a shout out to Clinton.

[KingofOldSchool]

Cena's going to cry

[Londoner]

Lol, boos for cena.

[ClockShot]

Well atleast D.C. knows what's up.

That's gonna change when the hometown boy walks out.

[KingofOldSchool]

Cena's not perfect?

WWE has lied to us for years then.

[Innovator]

If you make a mistake, take hgh

[FourFifty]

..........Cena has been on the mic for less than 3 mins, and I'm already bored. New Record.

[KingofOldSchool]

HE'S NOT EVEN SUPPOSE TO BE IN THE RRRREEEEENNNNNGGG!

[Splaya]

So let's see. Cena comes out, which leads to Batista coming out, which leads to JBL coming out, which leads to Kane coming out which leads to Shane coming out introducing the new GM, either himself or William Regal which leads to William Regal coming out.

So what's more confusing, my run-on sentence or the last 4 years of the WWE

[Corndad]

Kinda suprised they are blowing Bats/Cena already. Figured we would be waiting for Mania next year or something.

[Innovator]

I BELIEVE IN SHANE MCMAHON

Vote Shane-O-Mac for WWE D.A

[KingofOldSchool]

New tron for Bats?

[Volare]

Bats is Gangsta!!

[Splaya]

So what is this jersey night on RAW?

[Innovator]

Bullets jersey, CHEAP POP

[FourFifty]

Goddamn, every time I see Dancin' Dave he looks gayer and gayer.

[sugar butt]

what's up with all the new/different shirts?

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Is it just me or is Cena getting a little bit of a southern 'twang' in his voice?

Also, gotta say I'm markin a lil bit for the bullets jersey.

[Innovator]

Punk gonna come out in a Bulls jersey?

[KingofOldSchool]

I BELIEVE IN SHANE MCMAHON

Vote Shane-O-Mac for WWE D.A

Shane O' Two-Face

[Linkbowler]

What kind of schmuck wears a wife-beater under a basketball jersey?

[FourFifty]

:lol: Anyone else catch the "Batista is an animal" sign?

[Londoner]

Weak

[Volare]

LMAO at the "Batista is an Animal" sign with the sheep on it.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I'm so fuckin and bloody sick of this mutual respect thing between workers. :mad:

[Innovator]

"you had your two shots"

"I HAVE 50 LEFT!"

[sugar butt]

bats wouldn't win anyways cuz he never wins

[KingofOldSchool]

Way to jump to conclusions Batista.

Two shots?

Try like a million and a half.

[Volare]

He had his two shots but does everyone forget he get about 3432 more?

[Londoner]

Cena making sense for once.

[Xerzes]

Well, according to his ugly, ugly hat, I can't see him. Which explains why my television is off.

[Innovator]

Whatever happened to wrestlers hating each other...besides Jericho and HBM

[Volare]

oooooooooooooooooooo....diss from Bats...PWNE3D!!1!!11

[KingofOldSchool]

OOOOHHHHH SNAP! HE WENT THERE!

[ClockShot]

LOL at KoOS, Volare, and Inno's posts.

[McLegend]

O did Batista really just that Cena couldn't beat him?

It's on now.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I want the MMMMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYY!

[Corndad]

Oh good lord.

[KingofOldSchool]

BATISTA VS. CENA TONIGHT, WRESTLEMANIA COMES EARLY!

[Londoner]

[KingofOldSchool]

COLT CABANA?!?!?!

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Technically sound free agent?

Who on Raw/Smackdown/ECW is a free agent?

[Splaya]

Cena vs JBL and Kane


WOW

[Londoner]

[ClockShot]

Whoa. Shane got me dialed in to the rest of the show within 30 seconds.

[Linkbowler]

My money's on Cena.

[DaVe]

Kane better win.:(

[HeartBreakMan2k]

William Regal vs CM Punk tonight. Calling it now.

[Splaya]

SOMEONE BURN KANE IN THE FACE. I WANT THE MASK BACK ON TONIGHT

[KingofOldSchool]

Or is Regal the "technically sound Free agent"

[Volare]

FREE AGENT!?

You remember right? That free agent that did that one thing within the last 30 years! It's obvious it's him.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Shano-Mac has the best theme in wrestling today.

[FourFifty]

Shane O' Two-Face

I believe in Shane McMahon.l

[Innovator]

yup, here comes Regal

[Londoner]

Gotta be regal he was on about

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Or is Regal the "technically sound Free agent"

[ClockShot]

Well The Truth is going to Smackdown. Wildcat get called up? D-Lo perhaps?

[DaVe]

SOMEONE BURN KANE IN THE FACE. I WANT THE MASK BACK ON TONIGHT

Actually, yeah, I'd be happier with that.

[McLegend]

Yeah I'm saying Regal is the free agent.

[Splaya]

William Regal vs CM Punk tonight. Calling it now.

[Innovator]

[McLegend]

Yeah but he did it better. As did I.

[Volare]

LO-DOWN MOFO!

[FourFifty]

I really want to know where this Santino / Beth thing is going.

[NeanderCarl]

Well, according to his ugly, ugly hat, I can't see him. Which explains why my television is off.

Then how can you see his hat?

He stumbled over the word Washinton


Just like you stumbled over the spelling of 'Washington'.



Who on Raw/Smackdown/ECW is a free agent?

Surely, by definition... nobody?

[Splaya]

when they showed that I was looking at the Soul Calibur video more than I was watching the highlight of Santino and Beth Phoenix

[Innovator]

WOOOO KELLY KELLY SHAKING LIKE JELLY JELLY

[Londoner]

God i hate this theme.

[Volare]

Kelly Kelly....Kelly (thank god im drunk)

[Londoner]

D'LOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

[FourFifty]

[Volare]

Thank God D-LO Saves the day.

[Innovator]

D'LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[NeanderCarl]

Oh shit, D'Lo gets the mixed tag kiss of death in his second week. :(

[KingofOldSchool]

Mmmmm Kelly and D'Lo!!!

[Splaya]

Huge pop last week, nothing this week.

WWE fans are so fucking stupid

[NeanderCarl]

There's been a proliferation of the word "ass" on Raw tonight considering it's the first night of RAW IS PG.

[KingofOldSchool]

BETINO PHOENELLA!

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Just like you stumbled over the spelling of 'Washington'.


Fair play. And actually I fucked up worse than he did....

I fucked up.... I fucked up..... I fucked up :(

[LK]

D'Lo getting back in line, I see.

[Londoner]

They're continuing this feud with santino cause there's nothing else they can really do with D'lo right now.

[Splaya]

LOL

Beth Phoenix: Last week you kissed me...

Santino: Debatable

[Volare]

"I am not a piece of meat" F'n Priceless!

[Corndad]

Santino LOL

[NeanderCarl]

Huge pop last week, nothing this week.

WWE fans are so fucking stupid

Hmmm. Are you sure it was a huge pop last week?

Are you sure it wasn't... nothing?

[McLegend]

The level of hotness Kelly kelly is on right now is really high.

[FourFifty]

I still want Beth Phoenix to rape me.

[KingofOldSchool]

BAHGAWDKANGGLAMAZON

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I am not-uh piece of the meat!

[LK]

Really hope this free agent isn't Regal

[Londoner]

That being said, this crowd sucks.

[NeanderCarl]

Seriously, D'Lo got barely any reaction last week either.

Basically, nobody in the audience knows who the fuck he is. Tragically.

[Volare]

Das Bat-a-man and the Womancat

[Londoner]

LOL@santinos reaction.

[LK]

Santino is awesome

[Corndad]

I got her lol

[LK]

Kelly is not

[ClockShot]

Fuck that.

[Splaya]

LOL Santino's celebration

[Londoner]

lmao

[LK]

Santino is awesome!

[Volare]

Santino finally won one...OMFG!

[Corndad]

LOL at Santinos Dance

[FourFifty]

D'lo's team does the job to Santino's team.. So when will we see D'Lo in TNA?

[NeanderCarl]

What a surprise. OF COURSE D'Lo should lose to Santino Marella (who never beats anyone) in his second week back.

The pussification of D'Lo Brown is back on course.

[KingofOldSchool]

FEEL THE SEXUAL HEAT!

[HeartBreakMan2k]

lol Santino screams like-uh the girl.

I love Santino.

[KingofOldSchool]

Hahahaha awesome

[Volare]

Now let's debate who wears the pants in that relationship.

[LK]

So who's the GM?

[Splaya]

God damn. Beth is so hot now.

Also, if I get my Mickie tonight

[Londoner]

D'lo brown is def going to be in TNA sometime in the future.

[Volare]

Not the Final....DAMMIT!!

[KingofOldSchool]

Jericho's Final Highlight Reel...






Until September....

[LK]

I like Pheonix. Hated her when she was a face but she's sort of a very good looking Chyna.

[Londoner]

Don't remember when Beth was a face.

[Volare]

Mark out if Kane's "Dead or Alive" person comes out tonite or at SS.

[FourFifty]

Jericho's Final Highlight Reel...






Until September....

Any reason why September, or just a random month?

[HeartBreakMan2k]

KoOS do you really give them until september?

[Volare]

Don't remember when Beth was a face.

Didn't she become one when Trish changed? I Can't remember.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

I fuckin loathe Jeff Foxworthy.

[ClockShot]

You might be a redneck if...

[KingofOldSchool]

You might be a redneck if you watch pro wrestling, support Autism, yet don't even know what it is.

[Volare]

Shane is getting old....damn.

[Londoner]

Did jbl just say cena instead of punk by mistake?

[KingofOldSchool]

Don't remember when Beth was a face.

When she first debuted, they Victoria broke her jaw.

[FourFifty]

I hope it's El Generico!

[Volare]

You might be a redneck if you have a theme song called "Biscuits and Gravy"

[Splaya]

PLEASE LET THE NEW GM BE SHANE

[Corndad]

Ha his ring tone LOL

[Londoner]

LOL i would love that theme as a ringtone!

[Volare]

Shane owns with the ringtone.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

LMAO! Shane's own ringtone is his own fucking music. BLODDY OUTSTANDING

[Splaya]

LOL Shane having his ringtone and how amazed JBL was about it

[KingofOldSchool]

Shane has his own theme as his ringtone. hahaha

Oh and I think the new GM is a babyface

[Volare]

Priceless FTW

[FourFifty]

10 bucks says it's Hacksaw and The King.... easy bet, I know.

[KingofOldSchool]

Jim Duggan for tag champs!

[Innovator]

AHAHHA the lack of pop for Lawler

[Volare]

Mark out for a King Piledriver

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Motherfucker, if the two old men squash or even look REMOTELY strong against the champs I will be depressed.

[Londoner]

Shane > the rest of raw so far

[FourFifty]

It would have been better if he came from the table.

[Innovator]

Let's go Million Dollar Babies

[McLegend]

Will they actually have King and Duggan win?

[ClockShot]
