World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho experienced his share of mixed emotions on the last edition of Raw. First, Jericho escaped with a win in a tough Steel Cage Match against CM Punk. But for the World Heavyweight Champion, any thought of celebration was quickly perished by Raw General Manager Mike Adamle, who unveiled Jericho’s next tall order: A Ladder Match at No Mercy against none other than his bitter rival, Shawn Michaels. (Watch the announcement)

With this week marking the 800th edition of Monday Night Raw, how will Jericho and Michaels show the WWE Universe their deeply held disgust for one another? And just how much more personal will this grudge match grow between these arch-enemies?

Speaking of grudges, the issue brewing between Cryme Tyme and The Miz & John Morrison will come to a head on Raw. For weeks, both squads have used their WWE.com Video Originals series in a war of Web-based one-upsmanship. Can the "Dirt Sheet" denizens defeat their "Word Up" counterparts in a tag battle, live tonight? (Watch WWE.com Video Originals)

Raw will also host another grudge match, between Evan Bourne and Kane, due to "Air" Bourne's involvement in Kane's match against Rey Mysterio. Will the high-flyer be able to cut the Big Red Monster down to size?

In other Raw news, GM Adamle also arranged a No Mercy match-up between JBL and Batista, the winner earning an opportunity in the future to compete against Jericho – or whoever the champion may be – for the World Heavyweight Title.

To JBL, the ends always justify the means. With that in mind, the question needs to be asked, to what depths is the Longhorn Loudmouth willing to sink in order to gain an advantage over Batista at No Mercy and an opportunity at World Heavyweight gold?

Also in action, Candice Michelle asserted her status in the Diva roster last week. The Candy-coated Diva dominated Jillian as Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix looked on from ringside. After notching the win, Candice called The Glamazon inside the ring. As Phoenix climbed through the ropes, however, Candice showed her resourcefulness, dropkicking her rival to the floor.

Just how else might Candice assert herself in the weeks leading up to No Mercy? And can Beth Phoenix build some momentum in her match against Kelly Kelly on Raw?

And what’s the deal with Charlie Haas? The guy has been impersonating various Superstars for weeks. Who’s going to be next on the chameleon’s list?

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

Also, on Oct. 3, it is the "SmackDown All Star Kick Off" on MyNetwork TV. Starring Superstars from all three brands in sports-entertainment, this event boasts all Champion vs. Champion matches, including a Triple Threat Match featuring Chris Jericho, WWE Champion Triple H and ECW Champion Matt Hardy.

I love how Pennington was supposed to be the savior of the Dolphins... then they bench him after Game 2 and destroy the effing Patriots.

Evening, everyone.

Let's see if Raw can rebound from last week.

And the Live bug is back again.

Y2J, I hope you fall off that ladder!

A problem with the lighting crew? Or are they trying to set a mood?

Oh what the fuck. When Jericho speaks you want to listen, Orton induces baby punching

No. You live in a culture where people will desperately hope and pray that he is.
