It's a Raw so big, it will start one hour early at 8/7 CT on the USA Network.
Monday night, on a special three-hour edition of Raw, the entire WWE roster will converge in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., for the fourth-ever WWE Draft.



The show will begin with a match between old rivals WWE Champion John Cena and World Heavyweight Champion Edge. The battle between Cena and Edge will set the tone for the night. Each match on Raw will be interpromotional and will affect the Draft.
In professional sports, draft day is always special for a young athlete. No one knows where they will be going as they get their official start in the professional ranks.


On Monday, the Superstars of WWE will all be nervous for a very similar reason. Until their name is (or isn't) called, none of the Superstars will know if the brand they currently call home will still be theirs come Tuesday morning. Whose names will be called at the podium to bring their talent to a new brand?


The three-hour special edition of Raw will be made even more special, as it will also be “Mr. McMahon Appreciation Night,” ordered by the WWE Chairman of the Board himself.


WWE.com has learned that several celebrities, Legends and WWE Hall of Famers, including "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Bret Hart, will be offering their comments of appreciation for the boss. Read more on who will be appearing...


What other festivities will take place to honor the former ECW World Champion? And will McMahon’s mental state be more stable than it was last week, as he wreaked havoc in the locker room as a maniacal matchmaker?
Monday will also be uncertain for the new World Tag Team Champions, Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch, who beat a weakened Matt & Jeff Hardy for their titles last week. Will the draft split the pair just as they reach the pinnacle of their profession?

Don’t miss all the action on the special three-hour WWE Draft edition of Raw, Monday night at a special time, 8/7 CT on USA Network.

I'm actually pretty excited about this Raw, but I won't be watching it until tomorrow. Stupid social life.

If the show opens with Cena jobbing, I'm in.

I draft John Cena to TNA.

I second that draft pick.

Vince with Downs = Ratings.

Hell of a way to start the show, eh?

OH FUCK, Cole and Tazz all night... Fuck.

THE CHAMP :love: Edge.

Edge's pyro is immense.

Is Cena getting booed?

I'm gonna have to miss the first hour because my dad is a stingey asshole and will only have cable in the living room and he'd rather watch the dukes of hazzard for the millionth time... God I hate his sometimes...

Because with them being in Philly, I would hope so.

You can hear the kids and girls cheering, and then the men cheering for Edge when he gets offense.

Edge's pyro is oficially the greatest thing about wrestling today

SPINNING HEEL KICK, Noice.

Cena selling the face.

The Blockbuster is a terrible move.

Touche KoOS touche

Cena wants a DQ?

EDGE WINS!

BOOOOOOOOO

I don't like this whole "Ref Shoot" idea. It's really dumb.

Cause lord knows Cena can't job clean even in a non-title match.

BAHGAWD

Uh oh.

KAHLI to SmackDown?! OH THANK GOD!!!!

Whoopie for Smackdown

LMAO Edge

back to smackdown

Also, those Draft Graphics are pretty terrible.

Who the hell will Khali feud with there?

haha my dad started bitching when I turned Raw on, started slamming doors and shit. BTW Kahli FTW

So much for Khali being buried.

Also, that lottery noise is pretty terrible

Khali back to Smackdown? Wasn't he there a year ago?

this draft is fixed!:n:

Anger management classes?

:eek:
