Preview:When Judgment comes
May 12, 2008

Judgment Day will be only six days away when Raw returns from north of the border this Monday night, and the Raw Superstars will have one last chance to gain momentum inside Detroit’s Joe Louis Arena.

One individual making his way to the Motor City for Raw is John Cena. Following last week's announcement that the Chain Gang Soldier will clash with JBL at Judgment Day, Cena may be on hand to mix some pre-match words (or fists) with the self-proclaimed "wrestling god."

Since tapping to Cena in the WWE Championship Fatal Four Way Match at Backlash, JBL has taken out his aggression on the likes of Highlander Robbie and DH Smith. Will Cena's return to Raw this week be enough to keep the Longhorn Loudmouth from seeking another victim? Or might JBL want to make Cena that victim, mere days before Judgment Day?

Detroit may be Hockeytown, U.S.A., but this Monday, it could become Blackoutville. For two consecutive weeks, General Manager William Regal has pulled the plug; first, he took Raw off the air two weeks ago in the middle of a Triple H vs. Randy Orton WWE Title Match, and last week, he turned the lights out as Orton battled CM Punk in Toronto.

Regal has shown that he has no qualms about taking Raw off the air if he is disrespected, and WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon (statement). Will our fans in Detroit make it through the full two hours uninterrupted? If they don’t, will those in attendance at “The Joe” shower Regal with the signature squid usually reserved for celebrating a Red Wings hat trick?

Orton and Regal’s number one enemies, WWE Champion Triple H and Mr. Kennedy respectively, did make it through their match last week. Unfortunately, they lost, as Kennedy & The Game had to do battle against the entire ECW roster. To make matters worse for Triple H, he survived a wild post-match melee only to be flattened by an RKO from his Judgment Day opponent. On the way to their Steel Cage showdown, who will get the last laugh? And will Regal throw anything more at Kennedy in response to his besmirching several weeks ago?

Also last week in a WWE Mobile on AT&T exclusive video, a massive match was made for Judgment Day: Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels. The battle between Y2J and HBK has been heating up ever since Michaels’ win over Batista at Backlash. Jericho has accused the Showstopper of faking an injury to win that match; whether he is or he isn’t, HBK’s injury didn’t stop him from teaming with Y2J to defeat WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison last Monday night. With less than a week left before their pay-per-view battle, how will Jericho and Michaels finish their preparations?

Find out all this in more as the final Raw before Judgment Day comes to you live from Detroit, Monday at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

Might stay up for this tonight.

Jeff Hardy

that is all

Yeah so am I... Problem?

They haven't made Kennedy v. Regal Official yet, I'm guessing they could have a Jeff hardy Match at JD as well.

Oregano doesn't count.

Shit. Cena returns tonight.

Anyone got a stream link for this? Can't see anything on SopCast. Thanks :)

Who the fuck are you?

He's jaycool, duh!

Thanks for the warm welcome, feeling all special now... :)

Does oragami?

you should.

after my first 16 posts they had already killed my puppy, mother, and sued me for some reason or another.

Everyone needs a beatdown when they are new to something, feel free to pass on the shit you got if you want. :y:

You know what would be hilarious? If God made a run-in during one of Regal's blackouts.

Yeah so shut the fuck up you dumb cunt.

What the fuck is your goddamn purpose?

I bet you got herpes from your boyfriend.

Go kill yourself and never post again.


:foc::mad::rant:


(damn that felt amazing)



:cool::p:lol:


(ok now I feel really bad)


:wavesad::'(:(



I'm sorry....

'sup bitches! How's everyone doing?

Evening all.

Your puppy is still alive, just pay the money.

I LOVE REGAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome heelism

Is Regal the new Sabu?

lmao god save the queen national anthem. :D loving this regal gimmick

I smell a spot with a plant....

Wonder if Regal is paying royalties to Lord Alfred Hayes' estate?

Hey Mickie is in the opening segment

Mickie is so fucjking hot.

I hate it when they get the audience to act.

Oh boy he's going to throw out a plant, whatta heel.

Mickie!

....Ugh

Get em Mickie!

I've always loved an over the top power trip. Seriously, Regal is a mint.











until Cena comes out.

Krispy's boy

I reckon Regal should do a Bernard Black gimmick. If he was drunk with a cigarette in his lips during these power crazed moments, imagine how much sweeter it would be.

Oh look is John Cunt, err..i mean Cena.

NO WHY DOES CENA HAVE TO RUIN THIS

Calling it now, Cena vs Everyone tonight.

I would've been happier to see the Disco Inferno

Oh great, Mickie is saved. :roll:

My boy!!

Wow.

So it's a heel that everyone loves and a face that everyone hates.... love how this is working.

HE DID NOT JUST SAY THAT ABOUT VINCE!!!! :vmad: :rant:

E-Mails from Marks- the new Cena interview segment.

wcw thunder bad lol

:lol: WCW Thunder bad

Did he just say Stasiak?

Shawn Stasiak?

They'll chant Fire Regal, but not Fire Mike? WTF?

god damn poop sjoke

....because fan e-mails will certainly sway Regal.

Also, are they trying to get Cena face pops by having him say things like "Vince McMahon is insane?"

Those emails are actually Cena hate mail, he just changed it to spite Regal.

He hasn't been on Raw cause he was pounding Coors Light with me..

wtf

the hell? did Regal just turn back tweener lol

God I hate cena

Mr. MITB loses matches every week....

the King and GM of Raw gets bitched by Cena

great booking

Oh great here comes the Boooo the evil foreigners angle.

Really Cena has the most crowd pleasing dialogue written for him

why is it regal only listens to cena, bit odd.

So, when did Cena drop out of the school of Foley Cheap Pops?

more lilian singing lol

*turns channel over*

Great. It's not enough for Cena to pretend to be black, now he's got Lillian doing it.

Oh shut the fuck up, Lilian.

This is simply horrible

Jillian Garcia, you suck

that was such a shit ending to the promo

Jericho apologizes to HBK...riiiiiiiiiiight

I missed last week, but wasn't Kennedy feuding with Regal? Wouldn't it have made more sense having him come out than Cena?

Calling it now for the main event:
Cena vs Orton, JBL comes out, beats up Cena, Regal comes out, suspends him, and then brings hi back 30 seconds later.

lillian was fucking awful

Exactly my thoughts, loopydate.

*has bdc thrown off the internet*

Sanlito for tag champs!

if only that were true....

Hot. Rod.

Ahhh put Piper on commentary for old time's sake.

let me guess, piper costs carlito/santino the match.

I haven't watched in a few weeks... what does Piper have to do with this?

Victoria E Mia!!!!!!!

Didn't really like any of the options for new Santino shirt, but I guess that was the best one.

I'd love to see Bobcore job to Santino

What's the cage doing up there?

I'm all for using Piper whenever they can (as long as his actual matches are few and far between) but aces in their places... put a fucking mic in his hand. Every time.

Why the hell would they not put him on colour for this match??

Hmph, Nascar.

Why the hell would they not put him on colour for this match??

Cause that would make sense.

Man, i did not see that coming.

evencawdy ddt

I gotta say this- I still amost care about CAWdy. He's really turning into his own person.

Shocking and exciting.

No, wait. Meh. I meant "Meh."

Yeah cawdy's stepping up it seems.
