Big Time Fallout
April 3, 2006

Less than 24 hours after the biggest event on the WWE calendar, the RAW Superstars will be left to sort out the WrestleMania 22 fallout when Monday Night RAW emanates from Chicago.

At WrestleMania 22, the “King of Kings” failed to reclaim his throne, as John Cena defeated Triple H to retain the WWE Championship. Will The Game have something to say about tapping out to the STFU, and what will be next for The Champ?

And just one night after successfully defending the World Tag Team Championship against Chris Masters & Carlito, Big Show & Kane will defend the gold once again against Spirit Squad. Which two members of Spirit Squad will the dominant tag team be defending against? Tune in to RAW to find out.

Also last night, Edge defeated Mick Foley in a Hardcore Match, and the “old-school” Shawn Michaels returned to vanquish Mr. McMahon in a No Holds Barred Match. With their WrestleMania burdens seemingly finally behind them, what will be in store for the Rated-R Superstar and the Showstopper?

Plus, Mickie James defeated Trish Stratus to win the Women’s Championship. Will she have anything to say one night after dethroning her idol?

Feel the fallout as RAW is live from Chicago tonight at 9/8 CT on the USA Network.

*RAW Opening*

ARE YOU READY!? *BUM BUM*

Joey: OH MY GOOOODDDDD!

JR: BAHGAWD!

Crowd: OMFGGGGGG!

Lita: WOOO! GO BX! BX! BX! BX! BX!

I hope RVD cuts an old school promo.

Imagine if they brought back Fonzy tonight so he could hold the briefcase for RVD's matches! :drool:

You know someone is getting either Van Daminated or Van Terminated sooner or later with it.

*bursts bubble* No way that DX returns

Well duh.

Hopefully tonight will be pretty damn sweet. Carlito face turn tonight perhaps? And I think Kane/Show should drop the tag straps to the SS. They need to be fighting for singles gold, not being tag champs.

NO! GOD NO! DON'T GIVE THEM THE FUCKING STRAPS! FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

UNLESS, and this is a BIG UNLESS, they do the "switching the title around the stable" so that any two from the stable can defend it. Otherwise, NO!

Fonzy returning would be gold. They should make RVD more cocky now that he's Mr. Money In The Bank.

Yeah, RVD definitely needs to cut a promo tonight in order to be taken seriously.

DX WILL RETURN! :( i know they won't....

Fuck why can't DX return and have Cena sell out to Vince... WHY!!!!!!!

Carlito takes the Masterlock Challenge...

And loses.

I dunno, but I hope this turns out to be a good RAW....

Cena selling out to Vince = Ratings. But, wasn't it already done with Austin and Rock?

What hasn't already been done in WWE that they redid...

I was actually thinking that idea Xero, should've said something :lol:

HEREEEEEE WEEEE GOOOOO

Anyone else see RVD wanting his title shot tonight?

Maybe tonight Cena loses the gold...? To Triple H?

LOL they are so rubbing it in everyone's faces.

THE MAD ONE IS HURRR!!!! One night only. :y:


And Cena is STILL the champ! And the people LOOOOVE it. [/sarcasm]

lets have some more boooos

Wow, 50-50 split there

TURN HEEL ALREADY, YOU STUPID SUMBITCH!

they're teasing it... wow.

TRIPS <3

No barbarian gear. :(

love the new theme. <3

THE KING OF KINGS... HAS JUST ARRIVED.

Welcome the Game, damn you! Trips > you.

I do not much care for Trips new theme

Trips FTW.

I can't help but love his new song. Am I weird?

Well, maybe in time, just so accustomed to the old one

Here comes the double turn!

Face turn?

lol @ the weak "you tapped out" chant.

ROFL @ the Triple H pop for taking the hand away

=/ i think i'm actually on the edge of my seat for this promo.
wow.

ROFL!!!! HHH!!! YOU GOT PUNK'D, BITCH!!!

Damn it looks like they are goin for the Cena/HHH Rematch

uh oh... here's a twist...

Maybe a 3 way at Backlash??

Edge :heart:

Yes Edge, just because you beated Foley means you get a title shot :roll:

Trips goes Apeshit on Edge?
Yey =D

Wow, this just got better.

LOL @ the "Edge is Rated G for gay" sign

and here comes RVD.... I can hope can't I!

ROFL Trips is an asshole. :)

lol burnnnn

OOOH. <3 Ratings ^.

LOL!!! CONAN!!

Trips and Edge? Should be interesting.

Edge HHH for # 1 Contender?

Trips + Edge = Win.

ROFL in general at this segment.

This is a great promo.

LMFAO @ Cena, HHH, Edge and the signs.

"There's not too many members of your Chain Gang left."

ROFL

:lol: Heman and Skeletor

OH SHIT!

Triple H/Edge Vs. HBK/ Cena... Then we can have HHH and HBK join up.. i dunno how it'd work though...

so, it's going to take 2 Heels to get Cena over as a face?




WOW.

Looks like they are still keeping Cena face....or at least still trying to.

I'd still like to see HHH turn on Edge tonight and align with Cena to make a heel stable.

I need to give up on the DX thing...:(

That was great bantering between the three guys. Great promo. By the way, anybody notice in the back posters HHH is right next to Stephanie?

maybe RVD will come out after the handicap match and win the title.

I apparently need to give up on Cena turn thing, apparently. :(

Tag Titles, two nights in a row?! This is unexpected =/

Even though they will likely be squashed, :heart: Spirit Squad.

LMAO at the Vogue dance.

These guys are clowns, and as for Kenny... he gets to bang Mickie and he's only 19! Bastard!

=/ i sincerly hope this isn't a squash match.

I loved Kane's reaction to the SS :lol:

Thet're actually getting offense :eek:

*MARKOUTMOMENT!*

OMG YESSSSSSSSS :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

New champs!!

haha I knew it.

Woah, that was interesting.

AHAHAHA!!! THE CHEERLEADERS ARE NEW TAG CHAMPS!!!

Congrats, Billy, Jimmy and Todd... whatever all their names are.

Parachute Powerbomb <3

WTF ?! :wtf:

Now lets see how they roll with it.

SPIRIT SQUAD!!!

Grisham is calling it one of the biggest upsets in the history of WWE.

Looks like Show/Kane at Backlash...

The Spirit Squad as World Tag Champs... now the WWE does something right for a change.. cant say that about the last 48 hours.

What just happened? Unlimited crapped out on me.

RAW > WM in what... 30 mins? Hot Damn.

:rofl:

I hate them...I really do

They should let any 2 out of the 5 defend the tag titles. that would be awesome.

EXTREME!!!!!!

RVD cashes in at ONS? :D

OH FUCK! no way...

LOL I think I'm officially a SS mark now. I liked them but now after that promo, they own.

Mr. Monday Night is now Mr. Money in the Bank. BTW the more subtle the better, RVD. More subtle, please.

WHOOOOO!!!

SPIRIT SQUAD!!!!!

ALIENOID and I are marking the fuck out right now!

Well...I think the ECW rumors are now confermed.

That's what I was gonna say. Like TNA did with Triple X. I liked that idea.

Gah, I pray that means RVD will fight Mysterio at ONS, and not Cena.

WWE Title Match on an ECW card? I must say "ew."

Loved RVD's glass ceiling line.

As long as someone gets the belts off of Mysterio/Cena, I'm happy.
